Re: Heavily tested then

In fact, since passenger cars are required to go through a type-approval process (and the Euro-NCAP in Europe) I'm surprised Tesla are allowed to develop, test (hopefully) and roll-out an update to the brakes (in just a few days).

Surely an update that alters the performance of the braking system requires approval by the authorities that originally type approved the vehicles in different regions.
