You don't have to watch more then one YouTube video review of whatever Tesla model to know that there will be more then a few "issues" with a brand new Tesla, that we can all agree on. We can also say that people who educate themselves on the brand first, go in knowing that there will be inconsistent gaps and possibly other problems as well with their brand new vehicle. Most will want the vehicle regardless and bet on Tesla Service being able to fix the issues at one point or another (ie when Tesla figures out why certain parts are not working as expected and create replacement parts to fix them). The problem, from an outside perspective, is that Tesla is operating as close to the bone as possible on costs, so the accepted variances in manufacturing are larger than what Ford or Honda would have due to the economics of scale. I don't want to say that this is necessarily a worker problem, because at the end of the day, when a vehicle rolls off the assembly line, (I'm assuming) Tesla has quality control people to verify the vehicle is meeting their requirements, so these are the people who are either not raising the flags on production, or the variances are "acceptable", which is what I think it tends to be. To create tighter variances usually means slowing down the process, which in turn will reduce the number of vehicles leaving the plant, thus lower sales, etc. I have no doubt, in years time, Tesla's quality of build will improve. But as a recent video review I saw on a Tesla vehicle said, "if you have OCD, you might not want to buy a Tesla."
