Manufacturers are heavily insured in case of recalls. So when loss of income for car sales drop alot of "recalls" pop up. Notice they are tiny easy fix repairs- no money lost to repair but all straight income. Look at the pattern for yourself.

Insurance companies have not put 2 and 2 together yet.
Sure a recall by itself is a cost, upselling needed maintenance during the visit is always an opportunity to mitigate that cost.
Recalls are an expense to auto companies. They do them when sales are down because that’s when they’ll have minimum impact to investors I suspect. To claim recalls are a profit center is just crazy.
