    When you’re selling a million cars, it’s guaranteed that some of them will have a missed defect, no matter how good your QC is.

    That’s why you have agencies like the NHTSA. You need someone who can decide at what point the issue is a major defect that constitutes a recall.

      but when it’s the software it would be the same on all vehicles more than likely

        Correct. They also push updates so they know exactly what software is running.

        They’ve create a chain of liability.

        The big automakers better be taking notes because it they seem to be trying to follow Tesla down this legal rabbit hole
