Tesla doesn't even register in the top 10 most recalls per car company in 2023. https://i.imgur.com/bygtzk2.png https://i.imgur.com/bygtzk2.png What data are you using? How many of Ford Motor's 58 recalls in 2023 made HN's front page? Meanwhile Tesla updates the car UIs icon sizes via a software update, and there are headlines all over the media including HN stating that Tesla recalled millions of cars, omitting that it was a software update. That makes people like the GP think Teslas have disproportionately worse issues, which appears to be the objective.

    I see only a link to an infographic about recalls in 2023.

How is recalls per company a valid metric? Should it be at least normalised by number of models (e.g. if we assume design flaws)? By that metric Fords 58 are normalised by 40 odd models (only counting current) while Teslas 20 are normalised by 6 models (counting any car/truck build).
