Wait, catastrophic steering failure? Like the same exact shit the Tesla was doing when it first came out?

It's extra absurd since this isn't even EV specific parts. Suspension and steering bits that dont experience rapid unscheduled disassembly have existed for decades.

Tesla's market cap is more than the whole rest of the car industry combined or whatever and they can't figure out the part that real car companies have had licked for like a hundred years

Look at crypto, 2.5 trillion dollars. So much money floating around doing absolutely nothing.

"catastrophic failure" could mean a few things, my first assumption was that the controls stopped functioning because instead of being directly connected to the steering/brakes they run through software.
