Bloody well need to. After all of the hassles that owners have been dealing with.

Easy to imagine that VW Group expected more from Cariad than was reasonably possible, therefore wrong heads being rolled?

This was in July 2022 & the threads / post were in the General Automotive Chat section & elsewhere.
