FYI, just got off phone with Tesla service. Parts won't be available until mid-summer and, even then, recall work will be limited to "winter" areas with later rollout to south and west.
On the one hand, I guess if Bosch is paying, they're probably reliant on Bosch to supply parts -- even if it's just new bolts for most cars.FYI, just got off phone with Tesla service.

Airbags were recalled and they still don’t have a fix for one of my cars.Lol ummm how does that work? Can they really issue a recall and then say “sorry can’t fix it until summer. We hope you have another vehicle or that something doesn’t go wrong with yours in the meantime.”

If you read the recall notice, if the part fails it just affects power steering and that is most needed at slow speed and in parking. Hard to see this as much of a safety issue even if one is among the very few affected.Lol ummm how does that work? Can they really issue a recall and then say “sorry can’t fix it until summer.

If the bolts fail, the driver is still able to steer the car, but increased force is required due to loss or reduction of power assist. This primarily makes the car harder to drive at low speeds and for parallel parking, but does not materially affect control at high speed, where only small steering wheel force is needed.
Oh, and the Model X crash on 101 in California? The press is treating this as if it proves that Autopilot (1) was actually engaged at the time of the accident, and (2) that it caused the accident. There is not a shred of evidence to support either claim, yet we see these claims made implicitly time and again in news articles.
Didn't you read Tesla's news release? AP was on and engaged at the time of the crash, it had issued visual and audible warnings to the driver to take control of the vehicle. There were no hands on the wheel for 6 seconds prior to the crash. The deceased owner had previously complained to the service center that AP veered towards that barrier repeatedly in the past. That's the latest.Oh, and the Model X crash on 101 in California?

My 2013 Ford Fusion Energi was recalled in June 2015 for the same corrosion of the steering bolts problem. I don't recall reading about the recall in any publication. Ford recall # 15S14. NHTSA recall # 15V-250.
Maybe Tesla gets their bolts from the same source as Ford.
