Many were effected. The formula that caused all the problems was derived from a formula that was stolen from Rubycon, and incorrectly transcribed. This started around 1999, only electronics made in the last of the 90s are at risk, the caps can still fail but leaking isn't as common (varies by brand).
The capacitors used in cars are a special automotive grade capacitor (which your replacements should be btw), so that might be why it wasn't a problem like it was with consumer electronics.
