Scotty Kilmer on Tesla's return policy

4:30 ..."Tesla's granted the right that they can impose a one-year ban
to anybody who returns a new car if they determined they acted in bad faith"

Well, Tesla is both the judge and the defendant.... so there is some kind of conflict of interest IMO.

I think it should the customer who should decide if he or she want to get an exchange or get reimbursed.

I understand the position of Tesla who want to protect against abuse for minor problems,
but in the long run Tesla is shooting itself in foot by not performing through QC before delivery.

I think the whole point of the video to expose the attempt by Tesla to dissuade people from returning a badly put together car in some cases by imposing this unnecessary ban. Would you take a scratched iPhone or a one where the screen is off the border or not glued properly and pay a full price at Apple Store? Long story short, Tesla should just fix the QC issues and all of this nonsense will automatically go away. Lets hope they do that soon. I am in no rush to buy. Here in MA you cannot even test drive Model Y yet. There are no financial incentives right now anyway in my state, but that changes every year.

I was thinking about the state incentives as well. My wife and I are working from home for the rest of the year, so there is no need to rush into finalizing the purchase this/next Q. I am curious to see what the new EV rebate program is going to look like for next year. As for the test drives, I was told by a Natick employee that they will start in July.
