It creates gross inefficiency by forcing repair shops to "fix" a statistically unlikely flaw, while genuinely dangerous problems that Tesla owners are already aware of get pushed to the back of the line.

Someone’s hood or frunk opening is a genuinely dangerous problem.

And we have regulation because not all adults know how dangerous the problem is.

What does statistically likely even mean? The fact that the recall happened means it is a liability worth addressing.
