Amazon has been known to pull books from sale and require the publisher to fix them before making them available again. I suspect that it depends on the particular rep, but it can be done based on a single complaint in a single chat session. It will certainly happen if enough complaints are received. (I have no idea how many are enough, except that sometimes it can be one.)

If you have no qualms about depriving potential readers not bothered by OCR errors of having the opportunity to buy the book while it is being fixed, if it is ever fixed, you can give that a shot. From your description, it sounds like the book is a poster child for the sort of thing that should be pulled.
