I don’t know much about welds either, but I can tell that it’s awful work. I’ve also shown these to people who are experts at welding and car construction/maintenance and the unanimous consensus is that it’s shoddy to the point of being dangerous.
You think the quality control is BETTER on their mass market cars than their bespoke flagship model? That’s never how it works.
There’s an official policy handed down from Musk himself that quality control be skipped entirely when possible. Getting cars out of the door to shorten the waiting list is top priority, no matter how dangerously shoddy the workmanship.
Yea, their mass market cars are known to be better built than the S and X. Partially because a large part of their design is still based on the original S and X which first came out in 2012.
Yea that’s BS about the official policy being for QC to be skipped. The showrooms/service centers would have to fix the car if the customer isn’t happy with it. So obviously it’s not skipped and Teslas are built much better today than they were 5 years ago. We have a 2023 Model Y and it’s well built with all minor issues being resolved quickly. There’s no major waitlist. I’m in Canada and there are Teslas in inventory.
Making a lot of assumptions about Tesla running like a normal automaker or better, based on nothing. Sounds like the reflexive defence of a fanboy/girl or a former neutral trying to justify their purchase of an iPad on a badly built chassis 🙄
