Volvo has the tech problems...

https://insideevs.com/news/773202/volvo-ex90-software-issues...

  -- Volvo is upgrading the central computer on all 2025 EX90s for free.
  -- The company has spent over a year trying to squash software bugs in the EX90, but owners are still reporting serious issues and glitches.
  -- One owner told InsideEVs that her EX90 has been a "dumpster fire inside a train wreck."

Are you throwing LIDAR under the bus for one computer upgrade? How many has Tesla done now to try to meet its claim of "all Teslas have the hardware"?

> One owner told InsideEVs that her EX90 has been a "dumpster fire inside a train wreck."

Quite the anecdote, surely Tesla has never had an owner say that!
