Wow, I've never been branded a Tesla fan boy before... you really have never read any of my past posts, have you?
I don't defend Tesla, I defend common sense and logic. If you had seen some of my past posts you'll know for sure that I definitely do not defend Tesla and do not condone fanboy-ism. When they're wrong they're wrong, just like anyone else. I don't give them passes.
Fact is that there are not "hundreds of thousands" of places within a reasonable distance that do GM's (or any other manufacturer's for that matter) warranty work, nor will they always have the parts available to do such work immediately. The car I mentioned in my first post in this thread was in fact a GM vehicle, which took over a week to have the issue resolved.
There isn't a dealer out there that will drop everything on a Saturday afternoon to do warranty work on a car's A/C. A promise for Monday, in my experience, is definitely better than par for the course for this type of issue.
As for the other person's issue you mentioned, a "buzzing sound" that doesn't hinder operation of anything definitely is not going to be a priority for any servicer... I would be disappointed if Tesla *did* prioritize such a thing. And I highly doubt that they refused to look at it and instead refused to look at it immediately and they would schedule an appointment... as has been my experience with Tesla and other brands.
I guess we'll agree to disagree on this one. I've had cars fixed same-day many, many times. You're wrong, at least based on my experience. Maybe we live in different parts of the country and get different service. I've been driving since I was 16, 1976, so I feel I know a little about cars, driving and car repairs.
