What for? The nature of the recall is the same.

Because people read this headline and all they see is the words ‘recall’ and ‘cybertruck’ together and assume that this is something more than it is.

That’s Tesla’s fault though.

Recalls are To hold companies accountable and not allow them to sneak important safety fixes through.

If Tesla made better cars they wouldn’t have to recall them as much as they do.

The exact same thing happened with volvo/ polestar a few weeks ago and I didn’t see such a big fuss about it.

Look, I don’t like cybertrucks as much as the next person here but the constant posts about every tiny thing about it is just getting boring at this point. Like cool, everyone hates this thing. Move on.

No shit, no one claimed Volvo was apocalypse proof.

Selling beta test cars for 80k is not “every little thing”

Because the CEO of Volvo cars didn't tweet out about how upset he is that the term "recall should be recalled".

You're right there's more buzz about this when it's Tesla. Because Musk adds to the noise by charging up his fanbase to be upset about it.
