Most automakers sell millions and millions of units in a short period of time, but Tesla does not. I’d be more interested to see what percentage of Tesla’s have been subject to recalls vs the total shipped, and compare that to a similar mainstream metric.

123,000 of 300,000 is just above 40%
I thought that seemed really high, so I did a little looking and horrifically it’s actually a bit lower than the industry average of 46%! Some of that is skewed by VW recalling more cars in a year than it sells in a year, but still...

Wow.
