The _way_ this was discovered is more interesting than the bodge itself, really. This was discovered due to the owner feeling that they needed to personally disassemble and reassemble their entire car to fix other, obvious manufacturing defects, _after_ the dealer damaged the vehicle while trying to fix them!
I think I'm also quite surprised that the strap holding the condenser has persisted in spite of its obvious manufacturing inefficiency / manual process overhead (albeit sometimes with less improvised edge protection) - it seems like a workaround for an inadequately designed retention system for the condenser to begin with.

Then some customers unwavering faith that Tesla can do no wrong despite evidence staring them in face.
