Calling an OTA software update a "recall" is rather stupid, but I don't want to own a car that needs an OTA software update. At least not for anything important.
Really this is just further proof that software developers should be no where near automotive design.
Honestly, it’s not like traditional automakers have a good track record of reliable software, either. Have you seen older infotainment systems? It’s like they got someone’s nephew to do the programming, and like they made UI/UX decisions by throwing darts at pictures stuck to the wall to determine the flows.
The 2000 Corolla 4 cylinder manual is indestructible if you change the oil and don't crash it.
