On the one hand I agree, but also just because it can be fixed over the air doesn't mean it's not a major problem.

Plus imagine if a car manufacturer put VERY shitty software into their cars. If a manufacturer has 100 recalls a year, I want to know why. If they have 1, I want to know why.

Just because they are more easily fixed, doesn't mean the recall isn't important.
