Lenovo Laptop battery recall

I currently own a t61p laptop. The battery failed suddenly with an error massage saying that "battery cannot be charged" and my battery indicator is showing that it is charged at 91%. I called Lenovo and found out that the battery warranty had expired. I was about to purchase another battery for about $179 dollars for 9-cell battery at Lenovo website. So I checked Amazon and it was listing Lenovo t series laptop batteries range from about $44 ~ $179 or so. I was browsing the web for more to see if anything is going on with the Lenovo laptop batteries and I found articles published that Lenovo have recently recall batteries for their laptop series. Lenovo was recalling specific batteries and so I checked. Mine was not qualified. However, I quickly found out in Lenovo community that many people are experiencing the same problem with battery FRU P/N 42T451 which is the battery I own. I will see what happens. I hope Lenovo responds to the people's complaints. But I guess I have to buy another battery anyway because I need a mobility !!!
