The recall is due to Chinese safety standards, teslas built in all regions would fail if the same standards were pressed globally.
It's nothing to do with the quality of the veichle and everything to do with unsafe designs according to the Chinese government. The fact that many other brands having the same issues within China shows their standards changed recently and lots of cars are classified as dangerous.
The quality of the Chinese made Teslas exceed the US made cars, check Australian Tesla owner groups and see the difference in issues compared to the US.
