Its a software update, still a recall, that has killed 17 people so far according to the Washington Post.

-Wash PostBut the recall — the largest in Tesla’s 20-year history — quickly drew condemnation from experts and lawmakers, who said new warnings and alerts are unlikely to solve Autopilot’s fundamental flaw: that Tesla fails to limit where drivers can turn it on in the first place.
Adaptive cruise control systems on cars, which control braking and speed, raise the risk of traffic crashes because the technology leads drivers to go faster, a U.S. study found on Thursday.
So the garbage system has a fundamental flaw and they are recalling all their cars to patch the software but it won’t fix it. You understand this is not proving your point right?TC Talks wrote: ↑Sun Dec 17, 2023 1:25 pmcraig11152 wrote: ↑Sun Dec 17, 2023 11:39 amIts a software update, still a recall, that has killed 17 people so far according to the Washington Post.-Wash PostBut the recall — the largest in Tesla’s 20-year history — quickly drew condemnation from experts and lawmakers, who said new warnings and alerts are unlikely to solve Autopilot’s fundamental flaw: that Tesla fails to limit where drivers can turn it on in the first place.
Yes, all examples were of people using it incorrectly. It needs to be idiot proofed. But if you turn cruise control on with any car in a densely populated area, you run the risk of killing someone.

Not really… I’m sure many of the 17 loved their Teslas.TC Talks wrote: ↑Sun Dec 17, 2023 2:22 pmSure it is. Tesla is more reliable than domestic cars, with a lower cost of operation. The Cyber Truck performs well for the environment it was designed to operate in.
The rest of the griping from this group of Midwestern luddites is hyperbole. You live in Michigan, the state that hates Tesla so much it's illegal to sell them here. Not surprised by the comments.

If you have driven one, or spent much time around Tesla, there are things to complain about. But what they got right overshadows the bad.craig11152 wrote: ↑Sun Dec 17, 2023 4:41 pmIf anyone dares to suggest Tesla is anything less than perfect they are "luddites" in the minds of the Tesla cult.
