Tesla should never transport new vehicle in open carrier

BAD NEWS: A truck loaded with Model X’s got hit by another truck! | EV And More
I feel sorry for the new owners of these two damaged X. We should demand tesla transport new vehicles in closed carriers. These are very expensive vehicles and should never exposed to sand and rough weather and any other dangerous elements during transport.

that sucks.

That's frustrating news for the new owners who are going to have to wait a bit longer for their deliveries and for the driver of the truck who is going to have to explain how it happened.

I wonder what happens to the VIN number when the Tesla has to be replaced since it is already in MyTesla for financing and insurance

My heart was racing until I saw it was a black X... phew almost had a heart attack!
That really sucks for the owner of that X, hopefully Tesla prioritizes making him or her a new tesla (or repairing it) ASAP.

I don't think TM will make a new X for that poor owner. Most likely TM will fix the damage parts and pretends the accident never happened. The new owner will never know what had happened.

I don't see how an enclosed transport would have prevented that accident.

The car is flooded because of the rain, they would have to replace the car and use the current X as a display model or salvage it for refurbish parts.

This is why they should install XPEL at the factory. The self-healing would have helped.

Probably the flooded one they have to replace. The other one maybe not.

Not convinced it would have helped in this case.
