That break immediately made me think of the SpaceX strut failure due to supply chain mis-management. Quality checks were not in place, resulting in material that didn't have the structural strength specified.

Would be nice if Reuters actually compared such failures in other cars. But they seem to be hell bent on writing a hit piece with other Tesla unrelated Musk things thrown in rather than actually come up with a good journalistic piece, so I am assuming they found that other manufacturers are the same or worse, so didn't mention it.

  The point is that "such failures" are very rare or unheard of, and that Tesla lies about them.
