    We need a new term to separate physical and virtual recalls. It’s not like 2.2M vehicles have to go to the dealer to have a faulty brake line replace.

    Musk is a utter cunt though, don’t get me wrong. But this is not about him.

      The word “recall” in the context of a product clearly means the product had to go back to where it came from. Do Microsoft, Apple, and Google recall devices running their software every time there’s an update? No, it’s called an update.

      There 100% needs to be better phrasing for this, and for all manufacturers. I don’t give a shit about Elon Musk.
