But it looks like Tesla enforces "no uncorking for older cars" policy - after a car is uncorked by an owner (why bother to contact Tesla
) Tesla would log in to the car and 'corked' it back. After the second attempt, an owner gets a pleasant call from Tesla with an emphasis if it happens again battery warranty could be voided.
and WHERE does it say in the warranty or the software agreements you supposedly sign when you buy the car that you agree to this? Or agree to not modify the car? It doesn't say that ANYWHERE.
Now, Tesla might come up with a new software agreement - but the problem is that they load the software BEFORE you agree to the update - what if you decline their new software agreement?
I have encountered this lack of proper limitations already with Tesla and we're not even owners yet. . . .
I simply refuse to let them scan my DL or to retain a photo of it. We are not financing with them - and they are simply processing the title form as part of delivery. They only need our insurance policy number as well - I drew the line at giving them scans of anything.
They salesman says to me jokingly, 'well, if you don't agree we don't have to sell you a car.'
I was ready for that and told him that if he meant that comment seriously I was prepared to demand arbitration right then and there - since their ordering agreement says nothing about Tesla having the ability to terminate the agreement. You give them money, you have an enforceable agreement for them to build you a vehicle. The ONLY out they have is impossibility for certain options or if the company fails to build that model.
He was taken aback by my comment and I just waited for his reply. He said - let me confirm what documents we need.
He calls me two hours later and said they don't need copies of anything if we are paying cash. 99.5% of people finance the vehicle, etc etc etc. He then mentioned that he did not realize that Tesla can't back out - and neither did corporate.
Seems like they need better lawyers - was my comment.
