I’m willing to bet Tesla runs into this in just a few months. This is coming in waves across the industry, and I doubt Tesla is equipped to deal with it any better than any other manufacturer.
(Full disclosure: I work for an Automotive OEM. I do not have any inside knowledge about the shortage in general, or how it’s affecting my company. All my comments are from my own observation of public news sources.)

They said they will continue to go full board ahead and put in orders expecting continuing growth over the next year. The chip makers specifically called out the some OEM for instantly reducing orders and then instantly demand more again. Tesla didn't do that.
