Ford and Toyota have recalls on this scale and of this severity every couple months, and nobody notices. Tesla deserves a defence here because if it were any other automaker, the story wouldn't be "ford f'ed up", it wouldn't be news at all.
As a fun example, my ford was recalled last year because the windshield wipers might be flammable. Did you read about that in the news?
- jstandard 10y agoTesla doesn't have anywhere near the scale, history or number of product lines to make this a valid comparison. People have been more tolerant of Tesla issues because of attachment to the mission/Elon and their role as early adopters. Now as Tesla moves toward the mainstream greater scrutiny, such as recall notices, should be given to them.
