This reminds me of the iPhone battery situation from a few years ago, when the battery was getting a bit older they purposely slowed the CPU down so your phone ran like garbage. It wasn't necessary for them to do that and in the end they got caught out, but instead of handling it so poorly like Tesla is with this screen situation, Apple admitted they did wrong and offered new batteries at cost price with no installation charges, I think it was only about $30 or something.I am curious when Tesla decided this is a wear and tear item. I would imagine most of us purchased our cars before that decision was made. It seems awfully sleazy to hold you to something being a wear item when Tesla themselves didn't consider it so at the time of purchase.
So the offshoot is my own family was affected by this and we had three phones repaired by Apple. Sure they were deceitful to begin with and it burnt them, but at the end of the day we got new batteries in our phones, had a laugh they got caught out and are completely happy with the outcome and a couple of us have since upgraded to newer iPhones.
Tesla on the other hand, its come to customers involving lawyers to get warranty items replaced, this isn't going to end well long term for them, why can't they see that?
