So you replaced the whole pano roof yourself as verified by Tesla and an independent body shop ?My weatherstripping cracked on the pano roof of the car and started leaking water. Is that considered ‘reliable’? To a fanboy, yes. To a neutral observer, no.
BTW it was also going to cost me $650 to fix, as the whole Pano would have to be replaced, according to Tesla (and verified at an independent Tesla certified body shop).
I fixed it by myself.
I guess the numerous drive train failures on the Y didn’t make the cut in the survey eh?
BTW, my S has had not one, but two drivetrain replacements under warranty. Also, the touch screen, rear window glass, rear hatch glass, the whole front dash, steering wheel buttons that stopped working, two door handles that stopped working, and some more which I am forgetting.
On my Model 3, there have been fewer issues, but not trouble free, as you are whitewashing here.
Amazing
I’m not the one conflating here just going by independent data, and CR is far from fanboy Tesla friendly.
Your S certainly sounds trouble prone, bordering on a lemon.
‘But that’s not everyone’s experience, is it ?
Data still shows that other car makers like Benz Audi, BMW after decades in the business still have issues with every subsystem in the cars they market. Not whitewash but maybe a broad brush. They still, after all this time, haven’t even come close to the reliability and satisfaction of the Japanese manufacturer. But Tesla should meet and exceed the Japanese, everyone else gets a pass ?
Satisfaction and sales Data still show that Tesla as the new kid on the block is trying.
‘Hope you get a chance to test drive that Eqs and maybe even our east coast phantom Escalade.
As a past Benz owner / enthusiast the EQS especially the amg variant left me……. disappointed.
Still, Vote with your wallet that’s the only thing the free market understands
