Wow. That's just nutty that the insurance companies are allowed to drop
them because of it. The car analogy doesn't wash...if I'm in an
accident due to a defective car part I would expect the insurance
company to pay me and then turn around and sue the manufacturer to get
reimbursed.

I wonder if there are any standards on allowable chemical fumes emitted
by drywall? If there weren't, the insurance companies shouldn't be able
to do this. If there were, then whoever approved the importing of the
drywall should be on the hook.

I bet any housing inspector with a chemical sniffer is going to be in
high demand for the next while.
