Well then, I'm sure "Keef's" fraud will be will be revealed. Nothing to worry about, then.

Our Chevy suburban had fewer miles than the Tesla in question, but we had to replace the front ball joints - TWICE! They lasted less than 30,000 miles each time. Chevy made us pay through the nose each time. This is a perfect example of "no good deed goes unpunished" for Tesla. When I sold my 2013 model S last year, the suspension parts still looked new, and I live in a snowy state with lots of salt. Don't know what to make of this story....

Wow I have never seen such lunacy compressed into one website, Trump should hire him for environment secretary they would get along. Since the Falcon 9 landings are all faked I assume that Mr. Wivaneef would be happy to stand in the middle of the target next week with a video camera to prove his point.
Obviously the crash. All they need to do is ask the owners.
Because no one walks away from a crashed Tesla because of a broken suspension and says "Oh well, that happens I guess. I'll just buy a new one." If *any* of the suspension failures happened first, that information would be everywhere.
There is a reason why the Model S has a five star crash rating in every category. That's because the crumple zones, tires and everything else that's non-essential will be destroyed first. Thus dissipating the energy and leaving the occupants unharmed.
Sure driving on ANY road that damages the vehicle is not covered under warranty. Hitting a pothole and bending your wheel will not be covered under warranty. Driving on a rough road or an unpaved road that damages your car will not be covered under warranty.
That is not the same as driving on a dirt road will automatically void your warranty. Lots of people live on dirt roads out in rural areas. Heck, I've been diverted via a detour 3 times onto dirt roads since I've owned my MS. One of them was gravel. Pissed off all the people behind me because I was driving slow enough to keep rocks from being thrown up into the wheel well.
Not if Tesla determined the car was at fault, replaced the car with an NDA. Who'd know? Not saying it has happened, let's wait for the investigation
Do you have proof that that is true or are you just hoping it is true?
More importantly, even if it is one person, are you claiming that all that information is made up? If that is the case, then you should notify the NHTSA and have them investigate Mr. WIvaneff.
If that is not what you are claiming, you should try adding "This is just my imagination" to your posts rather than trying to portray them as facts.
Sigh, except you missed the huge logical fallacy here: If Tesla created a car with a catastrophic defect, and you were in an accident, and Tesla came to you and said "shhh, sign this NDA, and we'll give you another death trap for free!" no sane person would sign the NDA, and instead just have their insurance pay them out and buy a safer car.

I'm not sure what the X warranty says but I wouldn't be too concerned about it. If anything could be learned from this thread and incident it is that Tesla will actually be quite helpful even when your car is completely out of warranty.
Don't forget that if you don't buy a Tesla you will be buying something else and nobody can say their warranty isn't even more limited.
The Model S is the best car I have ever had the pleasure of driving and as a 32 year old, I believe it is the first car I've seen actually made for my generation. You should enjoy it (or the X) and not let these weird things turn you away from it.
My initial experience with Tesla was very much like this. Initially, it was very concerning and poorly managed and communicated. However, as soon as I made the issue known they were incredibly helpful and kind and have gone above and beyond to make it right.
I am not a "Tesla fan boy" but I do believe the company has a better "heart" than most.

Funny!!
I know, right! Man, how is it that people aren't taking their cars back to their home and independently determining what the cause of the accident was??? Because, like man, that is how it happens in all accidents!
After all, it is technically impossible for a crash to be caused by a broken suspension. Suspensions can ONLY break due to the force of an accident, especially if the accident was caused by a deer in the road or something totes out of Tesla's control.
Go check out the X Forums about the driver door latch.
People drive their X while holding their door closed. LOL.
I am not sure how safety conscious/suicidal/zealots they are. I mean if you can afford a $130k that you love for the safety, you can probably spring for a AAA membership and have it towed.
Have you ever been in an accident? I've never been in an accident where I haven't pretty much immediately known the cause.
I was in this CR-V - should I be suing Honda because of a faulty suspension? Look at that tire!
