I know how the world works, but i’m still blown away that they would cheap out on glue on a 100k dollar car. Is that a dollar per car in that quantity? And if they sell all of them they saved 1000 dollars? On the other hand, i kinda believe these things are ment to fail. It’s just a tesla thing. I worked with a guy who was super proud when he ordered a new tesla (like 5 or 6 years ago) i never pissed on his bonfire, i kinda just nodded when he told me that he’s soon driving the vest car on the planet.
He got the car delivered about 7 month late and unfortunately i haven’t seen it, but apparently the car was in a laughably bad state. Panel gaps, things on the interior that weren’t aligned at all, the car made a weird noise and so on. He didn’t accept it and the delivery guy was like: k, bye. He obviously had couldn’t tell him when he get his new car, but he said that he’s gonna deliver the car to the next person until someone signs up on it.
When he finally got his car, it was still not right and he had to bring it to a garage. But they don’t exist, so someone came to pick it up again to bring it to some mystery place. At this point, he started reading up on tesla and it’s problems, so he started reading up on it and got very paranoid. He started marking a lot of things in the car. He said he used to do the same thing withhis other cars, marking spark plugs for example, because sometimes they just claim to change them. His car vanished for another few month and when he got it back they claimed they only did vasic maintenance and “adjustments”. According to him, they switched out the whole driveshaft for example. But they denied everything.
So my big dumb conspiracy theory is that they build a video game car that isn’t even close to finished. So when the panels come off, they have time to actually fix other problems.
