Anacdotaly I suspect most car software bugs aren't hunted or patched at all, unless an exec at the company happens to run into the bug in their personal vehicle and flags it for the development team to fix.
I've heard too many stories of car software issues where the dealer gives it back with a note "reset the battery and tested good" but the bug is still easily reproduced.
