I find it rather humorous that Tesla has to recall 345 of their cars while Lotus only has to recall 27 of theirs. This is kind of like the old days at Lotus when they sold Jensen-Healey their new (at that time) 907 engines with no warranty. Jensen-Healey ended up having to replace a bunch of the bad underdeveloped engines Lotus sold them so Lotus was actually using the fleet of new Jensen-Healeys as a free test bed for their new engine. I guess some things never change at Lotus!
