"I suppose that the issue of failing to stop for a school bus can be seen as a software glitch that can be easily corrected"

That's not a glitch: it's a MAJOR failure, if accurate (we are left to assume there's no mitigating circumstances involving the roadway architecture).

The consequences here? Killing children -- a 'bug' like that should generate a full-blown recall.

If the number of cars on the road * the probability of a kid getting killed by the glitch * the average cost of a settlement is less than the cost of a recall, they don’t do one.
