when you realize the company CEO is focusing on sending people to Mars, of which the first wave is sure to die, and planning for the end of the world, has trashed his Mclaren F1 (for those that care for cars), sold all his houses, and months after MY was revealed even before it went on sale, we see the Cybertruck which has a radically different design and no paint, and they’re geeking out about diecast 2 piece, then single-piece construction on MY, then the planned full redesign of MY in Giga Berlin than build quality, you understand how this car was put together and where the focus is... oh but don’t worry FSD beta will be out soon to general public and the inevitable crash will make the build quality a non-issue; oh but of course it’s our fault for not stopping the car with a mind of its own.
sorry for the rant and feel free to dislike, but I have paid a steep personal toll during which time I’ve thought about why the MY has such poor workmanship for a modern car even compared to our Model 3 which we love.. my MY came with paint defects throughout, which included 3/4 of the car being fully repainted by Tesla with abysmal results, having the car sit in garage in its first 3 months due to new curing paint, then throwing me out the service center and refusing to do any more warranty work after I pointed out the poor job and car only had 100 miles, basically just going to service visits all that time, then I sought out a 3rd party quality paint shop to redo many panels and personally paid over $5K, and put a lot of time and effort into correcting the paint defects.. ahem this is before another $4k in PPF
for the rear door, you’ll want at least the XPEL precut rocker panel film which will cover the area nicely and is easy to apply yourself.. you can also try cutting bulk film to cover the bottom seam of the door but may have issues wrapping the corners

I just took my first road trip of about 3000 miles to put my model y at about 4k miles total. I gave her a wash today and holy sh*t, she’s trashed! WTF?! How can the paint quality be THIS bad? Will they fix this? Will tesla take any responsibility for this? If not, where do I take this to get fixed, and what kind of $$ am I looking at dropping here? This is pretty shocking, and giving me serious doubts about remaining a Tesla owner.
