The article claims that many cars are declared "salvage" merely due to Tesla's expensive repairs, which they claim is caused by their (unique?) restrictions on parts availability. As such, Tesla would arguably be responsible for the fact that the cars are "salvage" in the first place.

Yes, though as long as Tesla is up-front about their restrictions, people can take those considerations into account when they make their capital investment.
- dundarious 6y agoSure, I can agree with that. And we can also be critical of Tesla for it. It does run somewhat counter to their environmental mission.
