I almost bought a Model Y. Tesla has so many kinks..... 1. Wipers are using cameras and not working properly. Legacy automakers have solved this 20 years ago.

I almost bought a Model Y.
Tesla has so many kinks.....
1. Wipers are using cameras and not working properly. Legacy automakers have solved this 20 years ago.
2. There are bad design decision all around and poor build quality. Examples: door seals are glued on, everyone else uses clips. Poor panel fitment.
3. Tesla makes insane cost cutting decision, removal of USS sensors, to be replaced by INFERIOR tesla vision.
4. Tesla locks you in. Dealers are independent, there is an upside to this. The dealer works for you, not for manufacturer. Tesla service center has an incentive of trying to cut cost.
5. No 3rd party parts.
6. No proper blind-spot sensors.
7. The door handles are worse than regular door handles.
8. Noise inside cabin is high, very poorly insulated.
9. The suspension in a 2022 Y I drove was BRUTAL, like a modified race car brutal. It is also a common complaint.
10. Lack of cross traffic alert and 360 camera.
11. Tow hitch requires a software unlock....like wtf.
12. FSD is a $15k scam that should not be allowed on public streets.

- avgDev 4y agoWhen a dealer performs warranty work they are charging the manufacturer. Performing the job is in their interest as that generates income for them. Tesla service center performing warranty work is nothing but an expense for Tesla. The tesla service center not doing the work is better for the center.
- infecto 4y ago100%, tons of kinks but at least for me it was still the best EV on the market for what I wanted. If I did not need the range/size I think I would have gone with a newer model Leaf.
