They’ve had multiple non-software recalls

I came here to check this. I find it extremely annoying how often we hear about "massive recalls" that are really just OTA updates.

#6What happens in the edge case of losing HV during heavy braking on the freeway? Does the brake booster still function independently of the HV system, or is the driver going to have to push the pedal a lot harder?

I would say a hard recall rather than a soft recall (which technically is still an actual recall).

The vacuum reservoir of the brake booster in cars with vacuum servo brakes (whether vacuum is generated by the engine or an electric pump is irrelevant) stores enough energy for 3-4 full applications of the brakes.
