Possibly, but I presume you're driving a Model S or X? It's already been noted by multiple reviewers that the regenerative braking of the Model 3 is less significant than previous models. They did switch to a completely different motor architecture in part to cut costs, the two may be related. Edit: More significantly there have been numerous reports of Model 3s disabling regenerative braking altogether due to thermal constraints in fairly normal climatic conditions like 68F ambient temps. What I think is most likely is the Model 3 just won't have particularly good service intervals for the front brakes. They at least appear to have a performance-oriented brake configuration with four piston front calipers, they will probably just wear quicker than expected.
