Your last sentence sum up my thinking. I came here from google search and found good info on investor forum but sometime moderators are involved too much or feels like control and opinion orientated for each comments slightly against EV or Tesla. In fact reduce my participation and won't...

here is the nytimes article... I don't know the tesla recall link...it old recall http://wheels.blogs.nytimes.com/2010/10/08/tesla-recalling-439-roadsters-for-fire-hazard/?_r=0

you nail it down very well... that's all we want to know..

now you are adding more for no reason..:cool: all we want to know the details.. what kind of metallic object can create such damage to frunk with 5 star rating vehicle.. it is solid car all around.. (tesla will release but truth should come out no patch up) if not wrong model s was rated 5.5...

it is on the topic don't get panic. You can see they're focusing the fire extinguisher, around the front right wheel well right where the 12v aux battery.. it is old recall and fixed.

no adding fuel to fire but posted before or not (I am not sure) same problem with roadster

Okay worst time to hit with bad news because Obama warns wall street to prepare for disaster since he is not going to negotiate with Congress. BTW: Congress or say GOP acting like a devil (terrorist:redface: to be precise) to inflict wound way dipper compare to 2008. a

no company will say to public that our car is not 100% safe even if we have 5 star rating... it is naked truth for any vehicle of any type..

I felt the opposite i.e. it is big not small by any angle. I like the car as all of us but like to have smaller tire size , overall size and total cost i.e. genIII or anything else available when I am in market

If they fulfill what they promise 36k/3 years warranty and engine last 100k & up it is winner all the way... no brainer because most of the time people take solo trip to work and other activities. You have second car for family trips as most of the current EV adapters.

yeah I will be interested since they offer 36k/3 years industry standard warranty (not bad at all for 7k car) It has all the standard features you need for daily commute. It will be major hit with seniors for 5 star rating.

Michelin website says 45k warranty, and they last close that but rotation is the key. Regardless replacing tires per 12k is pretty counter productive for having EV but that is totally different topic of discussion (better to avoid the nerves of model s buyer)

exactly...no need to compare every EV to tesla... wait a minute if you do that same people on the forum will start crying saying don't compare apple to orange or whatever... i3 or second generation leaf (nissan said they are in process) or VW 14 new models in 2014. It looks like consumers will...

I care about review from ordinary folks driving i3 compare to paid or unpaid journalist. - - - Updated - - - yeah I won't be surprised either to see better leaf in 2-3 years time i.e. more miles per charge and same price point (not comparing model S to leaf but maybe genIII let see)
