- mdeeks 4y agoThe word recall is misleading. It’s a software update. My cars both updated last night. I’m guessing it was this patch. If that’s the case then the “recall” is probably largely already done.
- swyx 4y agowell yeah if thats the case its not really a recall, agreed

- rootusrootus 4y agoBe nice. You fanboys aren't exactly batting a thousand with your points in this discussion either.
