Volkswagen is recalling more than 22,000 ID.4s over a potential battery fire risk, while Einride has deployed fully autonomous electric trucks in Ohio. Rivian is getting into the Halloween spirit with a Ghostbusters-themed software update, complete with a special Ecto-1-inspired R1S, and BYD has filed a patent for a new battery cooling system that submerges battery modules in a specialized liquid. In Tesla news, the company has officially adopted the name "Dumb Summon" for its original Summon feature as part of a broader rebranding effort in Europe. Tesla has also renamed Full Self-Driving to Tesla Assisted Driving following discussions with German regulators, who are now supporting the company's push for broader European approval. A Reuters investigation examines Tesla's campaign to pressure European regulators and raises questions about the safety evidence supporting its claims. The episode closes with a personal discussion about Tesla's argument that delaying FSD approval could cost lives, and whether a company making that claim should charge customers for the technology.
