LE has a list of people they are interested in. They are appealing publically to those close to him that may know something. They are shaking the apple tree to see what falls down. The appeal is also to rattle BG. They teased him a bit with the you want to know what we know statement. They are hoping someone starts to behave differently and that once again those near him will notice.
I think this may also explain the stuff about the vehicle. Unless something memorable happened to someone in regards to that vehicle, I don't think anyone would remember a specific one in a car lot from two years ago. I wouldn't. I think the whole thing about calling in if you have any information about it is less about wanting actual info and more about showing part of the cards in their hand. It shows that they know something and perhaps they hope that will bring BG, or someone who knows him, to the surface. They could also be bluffing and, with that, hope that he makes a mistake out of nervousness.
How this plays into whether or not they know his identity is uncertain to me. I don't believe that they have a particular person in mind, but I think it's possible that they have a vague idea that just isn't settling into place yet.
