It’s the font size.
That is the issue.
I’m not a fan of some of Elon’s behavior, but I’ll acknowledge the successes he and his companies have made.
But when have software updates, remote software updates at that, warranted the recall badge of shame. What do you want owners to do, take off the tinfoil hat for their cars?
Change the font size and push the patch. Sheesh. We don’t need an article CBS and the front won’t fall off.
Well, the front’s not supposed to fall off in any case.
The recall is an official designation. And yeah, pretty cool with Tesla that a lot of the recalls are done through firmware updates.
If I’m a shareholder, this is news I would want to know about. Just because you don’t care doesn’t mean others feel the same.
I don’t think it’s about not wanting to hear it, more so about the language used, that feels overboard. I feel it’s a combination of a car industry regulator in need of updating their terminology and news outlets looking to make everything sound sensational - the end result leaving you feel like you’ve been mislead about what’s actually going on.
Exactly. Good example is my Ram 3500 diesel. Just got a recall and I have to drive it in, and have them update something that’ll take 1-2 hours to fix that bullshit emission issue Ram got caught fucking up. That’s far more of an issue but it’s still rather minor.
