I was wondering with all the talk of NACS, what would happen to J1772. I think I found the answer, unless folks here see it differently. Thanks!

I don’t know why something doesn’t exist. No one made it I suppose. And am not scared of the disruptive EVs or anything else but Tesla is well known for shoddy quality and cutting corners from reducing break caliper size, panel alignment, steering wheel falling apart or coming off, wearing tires in few months to doors getting stuck and batteries catching fire.
Every other manufacturer you mentioned goes the responsible route and recalls vehicles to fix the issue. In fact Hyndai just had a recall with bad battery. They did the responsible thing and went on to fix it. Tesla issued 0 of such recalls, instead they have teams of people to suppress complaints. They let beta level of software run on their cars endangering thousands of lives with so claimed full self driving to a point they are now under criminal investigation. But nooo, no disabling of killer software.
Regular cars catch on fire all the time but circumstances are different. For ICE car to catch on fire fuel has to be leaking somewhere, or at least its vapors. Which also happens. Gas stations catch fire. But with regular maintenance and some rules in place this is minimized. Happens still, but a lot less.
With EV, when they catch fire it’s spontaneous and car doesn’t have to be in use and you can’t do maintenance on your battery. It’s epoxied and welded shut. It’s not the same. Also, what else is not the same is ability to douse that fire. With EV it takes a lot more water to a point where sometimes it’s easier to let it burn. This wouldn’t be as scary if Tesla didn’t have electric doors which in some cases you can’t mechanically open and when batteries go bad, doors get stuck. It’s become a meme at this point with YouTube filled with videos instructing you how to break a window or escape burning Tesla.
