Tesla recalls nearly half a million Model 3 and Model S cars
Just a reminder that cars are recalled all the time and the only reason you are seeing this article is because it is Tesla. Any other manufacturer and this would be a non-story especially on HN.Did Ford recalling 185k vehicles a couple days ago make the front page of HN?How about Toyota recalling 200k vehicles also a couple days ago?[2]Maybe Honda recalling 725k vehicles a month ago?[3]EDIT: Lots of people are taking this as a defense of Tesla.  That isn't my intention here.  I am providing context to this issue.  Someone who isn't familiar with the frequency that cars are voluntarily recalled is going to conclude that this is a bigger deal than if viewed in the context of the auto industry as a whole.[1] - https://www.detroitnews.com/story/business/autos/ford/2021/1...[2] - https://www.justicepays.com/news/toyota-recalls-over-200000-...[3] - https://www.caranddriver.com/news/a38425033/honda-passport-p...
