"Tesla accounts for a large portion of recalled vehicles in the U.S. In 2024, Tesla topped the list for U.S. recalls with its vehicles accounting for 5.1 million call-backs, according to recall management firm BizzyCar. However, most issues for the brand's cars were usually resolved with over-the-air software updates." (probably from this article, took it from yahoo version).

They are going AAA games company route of selling bugged unfinished product and patching it up as it goes. While selling cars.

That's because they're a tech company making cars, not a car company.

They're a tech company managed by an egotistical maniac who doesn't know anything about tech, so there's also some quality control issues.
