Afaik the bad repairability of Tesla is mostly down to the lack of parts. You cannot just order parts from Tesla, you need to be an approved shop and even then it sometimes takes months for basic things like a bumpers or fenders to be delivered.
- giantg2 6y agoI'm not sure how that's even legal under the magnufson-moss act. If Tesla requires you use their parts (the software portions and other many other parts are copyrighted to prevent aftermarket suppliers), then they would be required to provide them.
- colejohnson66 6y agoIf they are providing them, but it just takes a month or two to get the part, it’s not much different than Apple
- giantg2 6y agoMy understanding was that individuals were supposed to be able to order parts independently of a specially licensed shop or dealer.
