The fix is a screw to actually affix the pedal cover to the pedal (instead of just glue). So, yeah, cheap, but probably fixes the problem. (Not the next fatal problem they find though...)
I remember there was an interview somewhere where even Musk admitted the CT is hot garbage and there's people with money who will buy anything with a Tesla badge.
The closest anyone in my family has come to owning a car that’s been recalled is when I found out that a newer variant of my own car had been recalled 5 years ago and even then it was only in Australian models, maybe we all just got cars from good manufacturers ¯_(ツ)_/¯
I've had a Mercury, a Ford, and a Toyota. All three have had at least one recall.
The Toyota's was a pretty minor one, tbf, and I suppose that Ford/Mercury could be argued to be a crappy manufacturer. I wouldn't buy from them again anyway.
Maybe I've just had super crappy luck, but none were crappy cars on the surface. All 2-3 yrs old on purchase.
Like, out of curiosity, what car do you drive that doesn't have any recalls? I'd be curious to know what it is.
I feel like there's a difference between "this car has a recall notice for this part, bring it to a shop near you for a free repair" and "yo dawg your acceleration pedal is broken"
