I just saw a headline claiming that 200,000 Jeep/Dodge vehicles are to be recalled.
I loathe Musk as much as anyone but this doesn’t seem to be that unusual.
Except this is the 6th recall this year
How many recalls usually happen for new model vehicles?
Anything other than Ford and Tesla? Somewhere between 1 and 0 per year. With the entire lifetime of the car typically being less than 5
Ford hands out recalls like candy which I'm actually OK with because it means they want to fix their stuff. Mopar also has a lot, but that's because their cars are shit.
