You mean to tell me other vehicles have recalls too? Unimaginable..

 

[devdrone6]

Toyota too, but I'm sure we would never see a headline like this:

"Toyota, a well-known brand with terrorists, is having a large recall"

Some of the complaints also allege the spontaneous downshift causes their rear wheels to temporarily lock, seize or skid increasing the risk for crash and injury, the NHTSA reported.

Hmm, that sounds pretty bad I guess, but imagine how embarrassing it would be if a piece of trim was loose.

Wow … 1.4M Ford trucks (and yeah I probably own one) have a recall vs the 40k from Tesla? Imagine that! ?. Wow! Tesla doesn’t look So bad anymore, no?

The media is silent about the all the gas cars with "Park outside recalls".

And there are more. Far more fire risks than all the EVs combined.

It's because no-one at the legacy OEMs are shining huge flashlights in dark government places ?‍

This was happening well before that. There is no causal connection here. This particular issue is way brighter than EM or Tesla.

This is old-school, ICE industrial complex stuff.

Not surprised at all. If you see my signature I had a brand new 2024 F150 hybrid between the Lightning and the Sierra EV. I was getting bad vibes from that truck. Would not surprise me at all if there's recalls on that product down the line.
