Obviously attention should be drawn to the fact that there is a critical safety update being pushed OTA, but "recall" is too overloaded a term if it means both "we're taking this back and destroying it because it's fundamentally flawed" vs. "a software update is being pushed to your vehicle (which may or may not be fundamentally flawed...)"

How many times in history has a vehicle recall meant the cars were returned and destroyed?

What makes this situation any more confusing than all the previous times vehicles were recalled?
