Don’t read Danish. But from German TÜV periodic reports most of Model 3 have rusty brakes from one pedal driving. Also low quality suspension was a thing earlier. But this is well known and an owner should do something about it. There are really good aftermarket suspension kits now.
In addition Tesla does not force mostly not needed so called regular maintenance in their repair shop to keep warranty. So that’s the result - cars without maintenance go for inspection. Who is to blame: manufacturer or the owner who does not care about the car for years.
- consp 2y agoEven mine rust a lot and I have a plugin. Do a normal brake every now and then. After market suspension kits is a surefire way to make your car value depreciate. My car also always brakes normally below 10kph which usually keeps the brakes clean anyway. I do a normal brake every now and then for my own comfort.

Wait, are you expecting every owner of this mass-market car to _replace its suspension_, after _four years_? That's deranged, tbh; if it's that bad there should be a recall.

- lnsru 2y agoWhy replace? Inspect on time and use car’s warranty to get free replacement with newer (and probably a bit better) part. I mean it’s well known issue with early Teslas: https://www.reuters.com/business/autos-transportation/us-agency-opens-probe-into-120000-tesla-model-y-vehicles-2023-03-08/ https://www.reuters.com/business/autos-transportation/us-age...
