  That's the same for other manufacturers. It's called a recall in legal terms, in the sense that the original product as used is not safe and needs to be changed. The changing can luckily be done OTA instead of driving to a service center to plug it in first.

  No it isn't. Recall means "The manufacturer sold you something they should not have, and are legally required to remedy that problem". It has NOTHING to do with the action needing to be taken. It has NOTHING to do with the product category. Lots of recalls, ie for food or child toys, basically say "throw it out". The people who keep making this "Recall means go back to the dealer" claim is simply down to them never paying attention to all the recalls in the world that don't make it to their mailbox like car recalls do.
