I bet you people were going fast with Teslas on not perfect roads. I have been doing that as well with my BMW, and the huge potholes that I don't always see mad

I bet you people were going fast with Teslas on not perfect roads. I have been doing that as well with my BMW, and the huge potholes that I don't always see made lots of damage to my suspension that I didn't have with slower cars.

In Germany?

  Not all German roads are perfect. Plenty of high way that’s a bit bumpy (although they are fixing it). Especially after the snow and ice periods.

    I know, but potholes that damage your suspension? Maybe if you're driving 400 in your bugatti.

    Believe me, compared to a typical US street, German streets are perfect. I have seen potholes here a SMART can drive in, and then out....

The great thing when you’re talking statistics is you can basically average over all cars, although not being German there are some interesting points being raised in here about who takes their car where for their registration check. Regardless, the underlying assumption is that a similar proportion of all vehicles arrives at the servicing centre and STILL Tesla is failed at a ~10% rate, so, underlying assumption being similar driving habits (which you have to have) your comment doesn’t compute
