Those companies so far aren’t in conflict with Tesla. Bear that in mind because it’s important to the conversation and the topic at hand. I doubt Facebook gives a damn if Tesla can skirt recalls. Ford or GMC or Dodge would absolutely care, especially if it’s preferential treatment which it invariably would be because of Musk’s “position” in the government. He’s got a conflict of interest that stacks things against other automakers and they would be stupid not to counter that any way they can.
