Here comes the electric pickup

Not exactly failing. They are making the notifications more noticeable when the system isn’t available. Sounds like people put on autopilot and didn’t realize it didn’t engage, and they crash. Ota software update.

Yeah, recall is a bad term for OTA fixes. It's just adding software safety stickers in FSD mode as an attempt to cover their ass.

Thanks for clarifying

It's a recall because the NHTSA got pissed enough to make it an issue Tesla has to address AND report on. It also means Tesla can't refuse the update on cars it doesn't like because of title status, etc, like salvage rebuilds.

2 million teslas getting recalled. Something with the auto pilot failing

Happens. The 12v battery on my lexus froze during the last cold snap because it just sat too long.

[Kurlon]

It wouldn't have frozen if the car was running and charging it. Not quite an apples to apples comparison.

Half of those cars are ICE cars with grills and exhausts and one of them is a Cabover.

I don't have a dog in the fight but mindlessly posting an edited Chinese? video isn't exactly an intellectual argument.

One can find a video of Corvairs exploding and saying EV's are superior. Sort of misses the nuance of the discussion.

GM has decided to suck at making EV trucks. They're going to be so far behind, one can argue they're setting up for another bailout around 2028.

When were they good at EV trucks?

That's sums up the strategy. Come in last place enough times to ask for big government handouts because they can't keep up with 'unrealistic expectations'

Corvairs exploding was a myth, Pintos on the other hand

Wait till you find out that you have a potentially exploding electronic device with the same battery next to your junk that has been known to explode. You even sometimes put it up to your head or sleep next to it!

When you fly your plane is actually chocked full of those explosive devices.

Black mirror type shit...

Moscow Polytechnic University unveiled the prototype of the Russian electric car Amber on Dec. 18, sarcastically dubbed the "Tesla Killer" on social media.

Its development was reportedly commissioned by the Avtotor plant in Kaliningrad, known for producing cars from BMW, Ford, KIA, and Hyundai until Western sanctions prompted a shift to this new venture.....
