Adding another experience - hopefully one that is so unique, you all don’t have to experience it yourselves.
I present you: breaking the window simply by closing the door (without enough force - or some other reason I’m yet to determine).
So, my partner was getting into the car on the front passenger side. As she close the door, I don’t think she closed the door with enough force for the door to completely close, but it seems it was enough for the car to think it had close, and proceeded to wind up the window. You know how the car opens the window a centimetre or two when you open, then proceeds to close when the door is closed and flush). And we’ve all been there before where we don’t quite close it hard enough and have to reopen to close it again. In this case, she simply closed, and the window went straight up into the black door trim.
We looked it up and it appears this can happen often enough to find a few stories of exactly the same damage online. I haven’t had time to investigate on it yet so don’t want to jump to conclusions on whether this is a design fault or “user error” or not but I think I might have a case with Tesla even though the car is only a couple hundred miles and a few days old. I certainly haven’t blamed my partner who was doing something completely normal.
Needless to say, I’m gutted and I still love pretty much everything with the car. I will log it with Tesla and push my “case”. Interested if anyone else has had similar experience.
The only argument I can’t make (I’m not in the game of giving advice): it seems that if you don’t close the door hard enough to close it, but just hard enough to trigger the window to go up, this can increase the probability of the window going up into the cars frame causing it to crack.
