JFC the shitshow that is Tesla. Fron cars being cut in half, Autopilot BS, to this, to the Chinese recall. How in the fuck does this brand get away with so much shit?

Try actually reading these the links. All these 'recalls' are software updates.
Unlike other manufacturers who actually have to have a full recall for issues like this.

I’m going off what is printed in the news. I get this is a software update. That’s the problem. Old school works for a reason.

Old school cars get minor recalls like this all the time. Often times you don’t even know about it because they just address it next time you take it in for servicing. My Honda Accord has had a couple in the last few years, and they are considered generally reliable and safe cars.
Tesla just gets more media attention than most cars for whatever reason. Sure they aren’t the most reliable things ever made but I’ve got a few friends with one and they’ve had no issues. Besides there’s plenty of people who like car brands that aren’t known for their reliability: Fiat, Jaguar, whatever. Some people just like the cars even if they are troublesome compared to a Toyota or a Honda.

Negative articles get buys/clicks. Other car companies advertise in those news sources, so they artificially limit the number of negative articles. Tesla doesn't advertise, so it's a free for all.
