Recent kerfuffle over Tesla’s many NHTSA recalls begs the question.
“A safety recall is still no trivial thing,” said iSeeCars.com’s executive analyst Karl Brauer. “OTA updates may be less of a hassle for owners , but if they are deemed recalls we can’t ignore them for this study. If Tesla fans want to argue with NHTSA’s definition of a recall, they are welcome to argue with NHTSA’s definition of a recall. Until that definition changes we have to report recall rates.”Related Story“My phone gets software updates all the time, but those aren’t considered recalls.
“We do have the numbers for non-OTA recalls versus all recalls. And while those numbers make Tesla look better…the company is still one of the most recalled brands even for just ‘have to go to service center’ recalls, so the brand’s fans still won’t be happy. But, really, are they ever?” Want to see if your car has a recall?
