Would this not classify as reactive since it is happening 3 weeks after hearing about it from a customer?

- filoleg 3y agoProactive, in this case, means “before they are legally required to.” If they waited until NHTSA performed their investigation and made a recall request (which is how the heavy majority of the recalls in the US are performed), that would be reactive.
- chrisjj 3y ago> Proactive, in this case, means “before they are legally required to.” Actually not. "creating or controlling a situation rather than just responding to it after it has happened."
- ChuckMcM 3y agoActually it does :-). I get that being pedantic can be fun but if you actually forcibly misinterpret things base on pedantry you might find it doesn't serve you nearly as well as actually thinking about what was "meant".

- TeMPOraL 3y agoThere's everyday meaning, then there's the meaning as an industry term, and then there's a legal definition. The everyday meaning is the least relevant one in this context.
- chrisjj 2y agoI see no legal definition supporting the claim "Proactive, in this case, means “before they are legally required to.”" E.g. https://thelawdictionary.org/proactive/ https://thelawdictionary.org/proactive/ A behaviour that focuses on results and actions rather than acting when something happens. This type of behaviours aims to identify and take advantage of opportunities and also to prevent potential threats or problems. On the contrary, reactive behaviour works by retaliating when an event or problem has already occured.
