If anything, this confirms the other post. Making the parallel between standard automobiles and the Tesla makes some sense to me, as does comparing motorcycles to the Tesla. I feel like even given these comparisons, it does not seem acceptable that they can permanently brick in the way that they do. I can understand why the owners would feel upset.
- bryanlarsen 15y agoDo you think it's acceptable that Ford will not honour their warranty if you don't change the oil in your car?
- Kaedon 15y agoI think that it would have been reasonable for Ford to honor the warranty for cars in the Model T era. Fully electric vehicles have not been around long enough for it to be common knowledge that draining a battery is as serious an offensive as never changing the oil in your car. I understand the reasons that they aren't honoring the warranty. I think that Tesla could consider replacing the battery for the early adopters that got surprised by this and make it more clear to future consumers that bricking can happen.
