Tesla could choose to be different.
No it can't. That's like saying a shark can choose not to be a shark.
It's the fact that these are unforced errors that is so painful to watch. They are doing more damage to the brand by letting everyone know that just because you paid for something and took delivery, doesn't mean you get to keep it.
Things like this are not a concern to corporations. It's not until you get into VW territory, or Apple's Foxconn suicide nets, that corporations become concerned about damage to the brand. And even then the reaction is to lift the rug and sweep.
This issue is also not anywhere near a storm that Tesla has to weather. In fact, it barely even classifies as a light sprinkle. I bet 99% of Tesla owners don't even know this issue exists.
I know the replies to me already: I'm an apologist for Tesla -- that none of what I say has any basis in fact -- and if we all just keep complaining Tesla will come around. But if not, they'll damage their brand irreparably and go under, right? Sorry but this is such naive thinking that it makes me laugh. I've watched far too many sharks to know how they act. No amount of complaining will change that.
