Any other car manufacturer would issue a recall notice and repair it for free, regardless of warranty status.
I smell a class action lawsuit -- Tesla installed software that invisibly destroys user-inaccessible hardware throughout the entire warranty process and then fails afterward, and then charged people to fix it.

- dawnerd 7y agoI doubt any car company would recall this. There’s plenty of production cars with flaws that completely destroy the engine that were never recalled, like the north star engine Cadillac used.
