If a Holden had a problem would they be bothered to come and grab it and take it to a dealer and fix it for the customer........
If only other car manufacturers looked after thair clients like Tesla does Wink

Only when it was the EV-1 in which case GMC confiscated them and took them all to the crushing yard never to be seen again even though the lease holders offered to buy the cars outright Sad

But if you buy a fossil fool lemon from any of these mobs you can rest assured they will not want to know you or the car if it develops major faults Sad

All the many design faults of the unsafe TESLAs will be front page when the new competitors Mercedes, Volkswagen, Jaguar, BMW etc move in with well designed thoroughly tested SAFE cars.

TESLA is DOOMED!!!!

Will one of the multi billion competitors simply buy TESLA out to get their technology which doesn't work very well ?

Or will they use the TESLA factory to learn what NOT TO DO ?

Massive quality problems with the Tesla Model 3 pile of junk:- http://www.latimes.com/business/autos/la-fi-hy-tesla-model3-quality-20180218-sto...

And what about the Tesla 3 BRICK problem:- https://jalopnik.com/5887265/tesla-motors-devastating-design-problem

And the many flaws in the Tesla 3 including brakes that don't work:- https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/innovations/wp/2018/05/21/teslas-model-3-has...

https://icdn2.digitaltrends.com/image/tesla-model-3-totaled-5-640x427-c.jpg
And an unsafe Tesla 3 comes to a sudden stop

Would you risk your life in an unsafe Tesla gimmick "car" ?

The Brick problem link is interesting, these electric cars have to be plugged in all the time or risk an expensive battery failure.

Quote:

George Clooney, Elon Musk Trade Tesla Barbs

George Clooney didn't have the best experience with his Tesla, he told Esquire, giving the electric-car company another bit of bad press in a year of highly publicized trouble.

“I had a Tesla. I was one of the first cats with a Tesla. I think I was, like, number five on the list," Clooney told Esquire when the writer asked why he was driving a Lexus instead of Hollywood's hot ride. "But I’m telling you, I’ve been on the side of the road a while in that thing. And I said to them, ‘Look, guys, why am I always stuck on the side of the f---ing road? Make it work, one way or another.’ "

Really socko ?

The same old story about George Loony wheeled out once again. Cheesy

LOL But we won't mention all of the tens of thousands of complaints made against the unreliability of fossil fool cars will we. They have created a huge industry out of the unreliability of fossil fool cars !

The Brick problem with Tesla shows you need to buy a new battery it isn't covered by warranty.

$40,000 for a new battery if you're old one is bricked, go read the link and see what tesla are doing about it.

Tesla have a 12v lead acid battery, when this battery dies you're stuffed.

Quote:

While I was in that painful stage of waiting for delivery of my Model S and reading everything I could on the forums one of the issues I ran across was a rash of 12V battery failures on the Model S that Elon even commented on in an earnings call.
The reports said that Tesla had chosen a poor vendor initially and the early Model S’s were plagued with this problem but that the problem had been resolved and was no longer an issue.

Wrong – my Model S indicated a problem after only 7 months of use (18,000 miles) and several others have reported the same.

The 12V battery maintains power for critical systems when the main battery is damaged or disabled. It powers hazard lights, airbags, door lock/unlock operation, etc. The 12V battery is also keeping electronics alive to listen to the key FOB lock/unlock and the 3G connection for remote access when the rest of the car is off. Another interesting tidbit is that if the 12v dies it will isolate the main battery pack preventing charging which is part of the Model S safety features and helps protect first responders.

Some owners are on their 3rd 12V battery already. Many others are reporting failures at the 1 year mark or even short of that like me. In ICE cars you can normally expect about 4 years of life out of your 12V battery. While it could just be “different” with the Model S where it may require a new battery every year, we’re seeing failures short of the 12 month mark which causes inconveniences to owners.

Tesla should be more upfront about these issues and let owners know what they’re doing to address the underlying problem.

I’ve started a poll over on TMC to see what kind of failure rate we’re seeing for the people that answer if you’re interested in monitoring this issue more. So far over 75% of respondents have had their 12V battery replaced. Keep in mind those most owners have had their Model S’s for less than 2 years…

The Tesla is an expensive lemon.

Ok love stories that r 4 years old...
So Tesla first changed the manufacturer of thair battery... then they made it that the 12 volt gets changed every year last few years they added battery. Testers so now they can accurately give owners a 2 week notice if the battery will die........ ohh and it’s not a $40,000 battery it’s a 12 volt $100 battery we r talking about here...... so if your going to give really old articles please do more research and see if Tesla have fixed the problem....

If u look at owner forum they are on same battery that’s 4 years old and counting..... again if the worse u find about Tesla is a $100 flat battery from 4 years ago that been fixed please look harder.... Wink

Ohh u mean the 1 car in April that stopped, he rang Tesla they organized a taxi to get him where he wanted, then they picked up his car and found the 12 volt battery charger failed and they replaced it.... that one......... yes no one should buy a tesla with service like that... I mean if all car manufactures gave ppl a taxi so they wouldn’t be late for work then picked up thair car and fixed it then delivered it home, the world would be in kaos Wink
