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

This is always the most bullshit response to this kind of news. A recall isn’t defined by the fact you need to take the car into the dealership to be fixed. A recall is a safety issue. In this case the remedy is a software update.

I know this is hyperbole. But you can steer without power steering..

Not to mention the fact it takes a lost lawsuit half the time for many other manufacturers to issue a recall. At least these are voluntary.
Because I can see the other comments here: Elon musk should be charged for fraud, Tesla is way overrated, Elons an idiot. You can believe all of this and still point out things a company does well

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
