      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.

      Recall for a font. A fucking font.

      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.
