> I wonder how they compare to the rest of the auto manufacturers, in this regard.

Most recalls in 2024: Chrysler (72), Ford (67), BMW (36), GM (34), Hyundai (25), Mercedes-Benz (28)

Least: Tesla (16), Mazda (6), Rivian (8), Nissan (18), Toyota (16), Porsche (13)

Another way to look at it is number of people impacted, which changes the "leaderboard". In order of most people to least: Tesla, Chrysler, Ford, Honda, GM, BMW, Kia, Toyota,.... Porsche. Obviously, conflating factor is popularity of brand.

Yeah Tesla is around 4% US marketshare, the largest three players are up to 17%


And Tesla have basically two models, that's probably why Ford have more recalls but less affected people.


Tesla has many small tweaks on their cars from year-to-year and even less. It's not as bad as it used to be (I haven't heard of any plywood in use inside the componentry).


rather than the number people impacted, perhaps the most interesting would be the percentage/ratio of people impacted among the ones who got the car?
