Editor&#8217;s Note: The article has been updated with comments from Mercedes-Benz and Toyota.
The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) has issued recalls for vehicles from Mercedes-Benz USA LLC (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MBGAF#OTC">MBGAF</a>), (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MBGYY#OTC">MBGYY</a>), Toyota Motors Corp. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TM#NYSE">TM</a>), and Mazda (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MZDAF#OTC">MZDAF</a>) due to software-related issues, according to the safety recall reports.
On Friday, according to an NHTSA recall report, Mercedes-Benz USA is recalling 27,190 vehicles, including the 2021-2023 Mercedes-Benz Maybach S580 and S580 models. The recall is due to a defect in the Engine Control Unit software, which may lead to increased exhaust temperatures and potential damage to surrounding components, increasing the risk of fire.

Another recall report indicated that Toyota Motors is recalling 42,199 units of the 2023-2024 Toyota Corolla Cross Hybrid. The defect involves the brake actuator&#8217;s skid control ECU software, which may cause a hard brake pedal and reduced braking force during cornering, potentially increasing the risk of a crash.
Additionally, Mazda is also recalling 77,670 units of the 2016-2023 Mazda MX-5 Miata. The issue stems from the SAS control module software, which may cause a higher force airbag deployment during minor crashes, increasing the risk of injury if seat belts are not used.
The recalls are set to begin with dealer notifications in September 2024 and owner notifications by November 2024. Affected owners are advised to contact their respective dealers for a free software update to rectify the issues.
Mercedes-Benz AG confirmed on the issues while Toyota shared their official statement that revealed that Toyota dealers will update the programming of the skid control ECU software for the brake actuator, free of charge while owners of the vehicles will be informed by November.
Mazda has yet to respond to <a href="http://pro.benzinga.com">Benzinga&#8217;s</a> queries.

Ford Motor Company (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/F#NYSE">F</a>) and Mazda Motor Corp. (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MZDAF#OTC">MZDAF</a>) North American Operations have issued urgent &#8220;Do Not Drive&#8221; alerts for over 457,000 vehicles <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/01/36840231/toyota-issues-do-not-drive-advisory-for-thousands-of-vehicles-over-exploding-airbag-risk" rel="noreferrer noopener">with unrepaired Takata airbags.</a>
The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration said in a <a target="_blank" href="https://www.nhtsa.gov/press-releases/ford-mazda-do-not-drive-warnings-takata-air-bags" rel="noreferrer noopener">release </a>that this &#8220;Do Not Drive&#8221; warning applies to all unrepaired, recalled Ford, Lincoln, Mercury, and Mazda vehicles fitted with non-desiccated Takata airbags.
Around 765,600 airbag inflators in Ford and Lincoln vehicles are affected worldwide, including 374,300 in the U.S. Ford has made over 121 million outreach efforts in the U.S. through letters, emails, phone calls, text messages, and over 1 million home visits to inform customers about these recalls, Ford <a target="_blank" href="https://media.ford.com/content/fordmedia/fna/us/en/news/2024/08/13/ford-issues-do-not-drive-advisory-open-takata-recalls.html" rel="noreferrer noopener">said</a> in a statement.

The advisory applies to customers who have not completed recalls 15S21, 17S42, and 19S01, affecting various Ford and Mazda vehicles with unrepaired Takata airbag inflators.
Mazda&#8217;s warning covers 82,893 model year 2003-2015 vehicles.
Some of these vehicles are now more than 20 years old, which increases the risk of an air bag rupturing in a crash. If an explosion occurs, it can severely injure or kill vehicle occupants, the NHTSA said.&nbsp;
So far, the NHTSA has confirmed that defective Takata airbags have caused 27 fatalities in the U.S. Additionally, at least 400 people in the U.S. have been injured by these malfunctioning airbags.

Unity Spices Up Mazda's In-Cabin Car Experience - Plans To Showcase Real-time 3D Tech For Automotive Manufacturers

For the first time, Mazda Motor Corp (OTC: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/mzdaf#PINK">MZDAF</a>) topped Consumer Reports&rsquo; annual ranking of automaker brands, while Tesla (NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/tsla#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) wound up in 16th place.
What Happened: The magazine stated&nbsp;its ratings were&nbsp;based on a number-crunch of &ldquo;predicted reliability, and owner satisfaction based on member surveys, and CR&rsquo;s hands-on analysis.&rdquo; Safety features and crash test scores were also factored into the judging.
The newly released 2021 Brand Report Card raised Mazda&rsquo;s ranking three spots from last year&rsquo;s list. Jake Fisher, senior director of automotive testing for Consumer Reports, praised the Japanese automaker for &ldquo;putting out very desirable vehicles that drive very well.&rdquo;
Bayerische Moteren Werke AG (OTC: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/bamxf#OTC">BAMXF</a>), better known as BMW,&nbsp;Subaru Corp (OTC: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/fujhf#OTC">FUJHF</a>),&nbsp;Porsche Automobile Holding&nbsp;(OTC: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/poahy#PINK">POAHY</a>) and Honda Motor Co Ltd&nbsp;(NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/hmc#NYSE">HMC</a>) took the remaining spots in this year&rsquo;s top-five rankings.
Among the list&rsquo;s bottom dwellers were&nbsp;Alfa Romeo, owned by&nbsp;Stellantis NV&nbsp;(NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/stla#NYSE">STLA</a>);&nbsp;with Land Rover, owned by Tata Motors Limited ADR&nbsp;(NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ttm#NYSE">TTM</a>);&nbsp;Mitsubishi Corp (OTC: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/msbhf#PINK">MSBHF</a>);&nbsp;Jeep, also a Stellantis brand,&nbsp;and Lincoln, owned by Ford Motor Company&nbsp;(NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/f#NYSE">F</a>).
New On The List: For only the second time since Consumer Reports began publishing its list, two brands cracked the top 10: Chrysler, owned by Stellantis, in eighth place, and Buick, owned by General Motors Company (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/gm#NYSE">GM</a>) in ninth place. Both brands moved up five spots from the 2020 rankings.
Last year&rsquo;s top-ranked U.S. brand, Tesla, fell five spots this year to a 16th place ranking, with Consumer Reports explaining Elon Musk&rsquo;s company was &ldquo;dragged down by reliability issues with the Model S, Model Y, and Model X.&rdquo; However, the Tesla Model 3 scored a &ldquo;Recommended&rdquo; label from Consumer Reports.

Mazda Motors Announces That Its First Electric Car Will Be Brought To The USA

Astronauts on board the SpaceX Dragon capsule approach the International Space Station on May 31st (photo via&nbsp;<a href="https://twitter.com/SpaceX/status/1267086597507301378?s=20" rel="nofollow">SpaceX</a>).
At the end of May, Elon Musk&#39;s SpaceX sent two astronauts into space - the first manned launch from U.S. soil in nine years. Also at the end of May, Tesla Inc (NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/tsla#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) made our list of top ten names. Since then, the stock is up 256%.&nbsp;
<a href="https://static.seekingalpha.com/uploads/2020/11/26/131469-16063676474650471_origin.png" rel="lightbox"><img alt="" src="https://static.seekingalpha.com/uploads/2020/11/26/131469-16063676474650471.png" /></a>
Our system is still bullish on Tesla. Our analysis of total returns and options market sentiment put Tesla in the top ten again on Wednesday. It was the only name from the May 28th top names cohort to appear in the November 25th cohort. Others, however, have suggested Tesla&#39;s valuation may have gotten ahead of itself.&nbsp;
Rajesh Sawhney noted that Tesla&#39;s market cap is greater than that of Mercedes (Pink: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ddaif#Pink">DDAIF</a>), Subaru, Ford Motor Company (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/f#NYSE">F</a>), Fiat Chrysler Automobiles (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/fcau#NYSE">FCAU</a>), BMW (PInk: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/bmwyy#PInk">BMWYY</a>), Nissan (Pink: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/nsany#Pink">NSANY</a>), Mazda (Pink: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/mzdaf#Pink">MZDAF</a>), Hyundai (Pink: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/hymlf#Pink">HYMLF</a>), and Aston Martin (Pink: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/amgdf#Pink">AMGDF</a>) combined.&nbsp;
<iframe height="866" src="https://seekingalpha.com/embed/12157" width="550"></iframe>
Bloomberg&#39;s Joe Wiesenthal noted that Elon Musk is now richer than Bill Gates.&nbsp;
<iframe height="470" src="https://seekingalpha.com/embed/12156" width="550"></iframe>
Wiesenthal also suggested that Tesla&#39;s spike was a bubble driven by desperate speculators.&nbsp;
<iframe height="366" src="https://seekingalpha.com/embed/12155" width="550"></iframe>
Maybe It&#39;s Worth Hedging Here
Even if you&#39;re bullish on Tesla, it might make sense to hedge here, in the event the stock corrects in the near term (as it did earlier this year). Here&#39;s one way to do that.&nbsp;
Crash Protection For Tesla
I tried hedging 100 shares of Tesla against a greater-than-20% decline over the next several months two ways: ones with optimal puts (uncapped upside) and once with an optimal collar (capped upside).
Uncapped Upside - Unavailable
On Wednesday, if you scanned for an optimal put to hedge Tesla against a &gt;20% drop over the next 6 months, you would have gotten this error message.
<img alt="" src="https://static.seekingalpha.com/uploads/2020/11/26/131469-16063745029941754.jpg" style="height:588px; width:340px" />
Screen capture via the&nbsp;<a href="https://portfolioarmor.com/" rel="nofollow">Portfolio Armor</a>&nbsp;iPhone app.
What &quot;net cost exceeds threshold&quot; means is that the cost of hedging against a &gt;20% decline was more than 20% of your position value. So, by buying that hedge, you would have incurred more than the loss you were looking to prevent.
Capped Upside, Negative Cost
If you were willing to cap your possible upside in Tesla at 38% over the next six months, this was the optimal collar to protect against a &gt;20% decline over the same time frame.
<img alt="" src="https://static.seekingalpha.com/uploads/2020/11/26/131469-16063744053747678.jpg" style="height:459px; width:340px" /><img alt="" src="https://static.seekingalpha.com/uploads/2020/11/26/131469-1606374419788117.jpg" style="height:399px; width:340px" />
Here the net cost was negative, meaning you would have collected a net credit of $425, or 0.74% of position value, when opening this hedge, assuming, conservatively, that you bought the puts and sold the calls at the worst ends of their respective spreads. That worked out to an annualized cost as a percentage of position value of -1.32%.
When Tesla Pulls Back
If Tesla pulls back within the next few months, you&#39;ll be able to buy-to-close the call leg on the collar above for a lot less than you got for selling it, and you&#39;ll be able to sell the puts for a lot more. If you&#39;re still bullish on Tesla then, you sell those appreciated puts to buy more shares.
