I'm seriously thinking about pulling the trigger on the Y sooner than later. The Long Range was $56K just the other day and is now $49,990 ! There is ZERO other car on the market today in the Y's class range that even remotely competes with the Y at that price. Zero

Go for it Bit.

The average car is expected to be recalled about four times over its life cycle, and the Tesla Model Y is expected to have 62 recalls.

here we go again, recall clickbait...

on the insideev's article...

iSeeCars consulted the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration's (NHTSA) list of recalls from 2014 to 2023 to put together its list
whenever the model y came out, clearly it had 'startup' issues and probably accumulated a ton of recalls in those early years. not very relevant now.

and:

iSeeCars points out that Tesla has the ability to address many via over-the-air software updates.

This is going to blow your mind, but in between those price cuts, Tesla also increased some prices as well.

Even the pro-EV website insideEVs promotes the claim
