Idk even the more egregious defects usually don’t get discovered this close to launch. The accelerator petal debacle should not have happened to begin with. It’s a solved technology!

Is this odd? Most cars have had several recalls, and if you have never taken your car in for recall work, you need to go look up what work was done on your VIN and take care of it.

It’s really mind boggling how big that airbag recall is.

Quantity of recalls combined with the quantity of quality control issues, combined with the price-tag.
For that kind of money, you generally expect something that went through some road testing. And it’s not like these are issues that took years to develop. Stuff like the problems with the foot pedals should have come up during their testing… Assuming they did any.

Awesome! I recently inherited a car and you made it easy for me.

I think it’s the amount of recalls in such a short time combined with how long it took to ship the first one after you could place an order. And the ceo’s attitude definitely doesn’t help.
