Between this and stories of $1000 door handle, I think this dream car for me may be out of my price range.
Compared to an ICE, the Model S has relatively few moving parts - and the most expensive parts, the motor and battery, are protected for 8 years and unlimited miles. And, the rest of the car can be covered for 8 years and up to 100,000 miles with purchase of the extended warranty. I've had my Model S since early 2013 and have over 57K miles on it - and I'm not worried about the long-term reliability and purchased the 8 year maintenance and warranty with my car.
The problem with the touchscreen could have been a problem related to using a touchscreen on such a large display - in a car, that is subject to heat and cold - and, hopefully, they've adjusted the design of the touchscreen to avoid this problem.
My touchscreen had this problem and was replaced several months ago. Is this a problem only with the earlier production units? Or is this problem also happening on the recent cars???
