"We fixed one issue" isn't really any more informative than "we're committed to quality" with respect to overall reliability. One issue out of how many? How many customers are affected by those others, and how severely? How long are fixes taking on average? Tesla's response might resonate better in a community notorious for confusing specificity with truth, but it's still just spin.
- rockarage 7y agoObviously you did not read or understand the article. The article mentioned specific issues that CR attributed to reliability problems in car brands, and Tesla addressed those issues regarding their brand with very specific and informative answers. The other questions you mentioned were not brought up. Your comment is unreasonably critical, read and try to understand the article first.
- notacoward 7y agoI did read and understand the article, but the point stands. Over-specificity is as much of a smokescreen tactic as over-generality. It's not "unreasonably critical" to point that out, unless "unreasonably" has more to do with the sacred-cow object of criticism instead of the substance. Also, both the start and end of your comment violate site guidelines. https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html
