I’m ok to shit on Tesla but this is stupid title. This is not a recall this is an OTA update. What a stupid clickbait.

@dimillian @taylorlorenz That’s not editorializing… it’s an official recall: https://static.nhtsa.gov/odi/rcl/2023/RCLRPT-23V838-8276.PDF
@ojarjur @taylorlorenz it’s still called a software update. Do we call that a recall when Apple release a new iOS version?

@dimillian @taylorlorenz If it is in coordination with a government safety regulator, then yes that would also be a recall.

The mechanism of the fix isn’t what makes it a recall, the involvement of a government regulator makes it a recall.
