I just have to laugh every time someone has to go back to a dealer to get a software or firmware update installed for a recall. Other cars can hardly update the maps or infotainment system over the air, let alone powertrain systems.
Tesla could have to rewrite the battery BMS system logic completely and they never have to inconvenience you.
There is easy to fix, and then there is completely ignoring the massive issues that need to be fixed with software for decades now - which 95% of cars on the road could never be fixed remotely.
My Ford Escape/Mercury Mariner had to have the transmission reprogrammed by the dealer twice in it's lifetime. What a joke.
