That's a great analogy
When something every car dealer provides is explicitly withheld you start wondering what it is that they are trying to hide...
As much as I think it is absolutely inexcusable to withhold the car's service records and maintenance history, if they would just offer comprehensive extended warranty coverage someone looking to buy a Model S can adopt the attitude "Okay so they are refusing to tell me anything about the car I am about to buy, unlike a car dealer would, but at least they are offering a comprehensive warranty so if something goes wrong, it is not my problem."
Withholding the service records makes it almost impossible for someone to do due diligence on the car they are about to buy so should something go wrong out of warranty you are on the hook for massive repair bills or multiple $200 deductibles for each issue even if you had an extended warranty. What's not helpful is the combination of withholding the information about the car with no extended warranty option for CPO cars and the absurdly high per issue deductible for extended warranty repairs.
