Original Note:
As explained in the article, the recall is a software update to be pushed over the air (OTA) to reduce the risk of crashes due to prolonged deep pressing of the accelerator pedal (pedal misapplication which is a driver error). This is not a costly hardware recall. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sudden_unintended_acceleration
