I have reported similar issues in the Winter Driving experience thread.
Is anyone else concerned about the press becoming aware of all our concerns?
We all find these posts invaluable, but there could be repercussions for all of us if this all gets blown out of proportion.
At least on the TM forum you can make your posts private.
If we - in our own interest but also that of Tesla-employees and of EVs in general - are so concerned these issues 'leak out' to the press, then I don't understand why we post these issues here at all.
Why do they have to be shared on a public forum? Why not inform Tesla directly? Tesla will deal with these issues. It's not like not posting them on this forum means Tesla will not find a solution. But I can guarantee you that posting them here will eventually result in bad press (if only because of all those people short on Tesla stock who will start tipping off journalists who want to do some Tesla trashing). It happened to Fisker and if Model S-owners keep up these reports (of issues that in my opinion for the most part can easily be fixed) it will happen to Tesla too. Fisker is struggling, and Tesla will too if these issues get magnified in the press.
