minus-square.Donuts@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up0·4 days agoAn actual recall that requires a hardware fix / replacement this time, and not a software update. Am I reading the PDF right in that 1% or 2,431 trucks are affected, meaning they sold ~240k trucks?
minus-squareBilliam@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up0·4 days agoFord, Chevrolet, and Dodge each sold over 700k half-ton pickup trucks last year, while Toyota sold only 130k Tundras. I suppose it’s possible that there are a quarter million suckers out there.
minus-squareArtyom@lemm.eelinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up0·4 days agoThose are all more affordable, reliable, and established brands though.
minus-square.Donuts@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up0·4 days agoI have edited my comment with information I found and it seems Tesla is selling nowhere near that amount (30-40k)
minus-squareWarl0k3@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up0·4 days agoI can’t decide if that’s higher or lower than I expected.
