Reply to comment by SeaweedSorcerer in Tesla Recalls 40,000 Vehicles Over Potential Power Steering Failure by Additional-Two-7312

That has nothing at all to do with the term recall.

A recall is issued when a manufacturer or NHTSA determines that a vehicle, equipment, car seat, or tire creates an unreasonable safety risk or fails to meet minimum safety standards.

Tesla had a safety issue. It’s a recall

That’s fine for technical rule lawyering but it’s not very useful for communication to consumers. It’ll quickly become the boy who cried wolf.

Id support adding terminology to it. I’ve seen “OTA Recall”, “Soft Recall” but a recall is indeed a recall.

The downvotes because you people are so concerned about a company’s image that has done nothing but lie to you is hilarious
