Do you know how many of those that you linked have had multiple recalls on them? Clearly some are more significant than a malfunctioning backup camera, but one of the reasons the cyber truck story has more bagging on it is because the number of recalls. It's a larger indicator, imo, or a poorly made product where the others may be one missed QA or engineering issue, not systemic issues.

Well, the ID4 has had 18 since 2021.

Tesla started doing Cybertrucks in late 2023 though, so in that same time frame it's 4 for ID4, and 8 for all of 2023/2024 (Edit: and the initial start of ID4 in 2021 had 4, and then 6 in 2022)

The EV9 has had 4, all in 2024.

The site doesn't have BYD, and while the site has jeep, I can't seem to find the specific PHEV variant as nothing shows in 2024,but the Cherokee has 4 in 2023
