it's technically a recall, which no longer means "taking the vehicle to the service center". Not sure exactly what you're complaining about as the article says this clearly.

Obviously 90% of readers just view the headline and don't read the article.

Misleading people through omitting important details in the headline is journalism 101 nowadays.

There's nothing misleading here, you're just insisting that "recall" means "bring the car to the shop", but it's 2024 and that's not true any more. The government (and the car companies) will continue to call it a recall.

Why are all the comments angry at the author then?

Just because you didn't find it misleading, doesn't other people weren't mislead.

Likely it's a tesla fan downvote brigade. I have no idea why such a thing exists, but it does.
