The easiest way to stay out of the news for recalls is to not sell a defective product.
If these software recalls are so easy to fix, why isn’t Tesla fixing them before being forced to?

- peterisza 3y agoTesla wasn't actually being forced. In the past, other automakers like Ford, GM, Porsche and Kia/Hyundai ran into the exact same problem. They just filed an inconsequential non-compliance petition to NHTSA because this issue is so minor and it would have been too expensive to fix --- for them.
