Description of the problem | Here is a tesla model 3 in the junkyard in hawaii. Https://www. Iaai. Com/vehicledetails/38117165? Rownumber=0 i don't think elon can use the chinese roads and chinese drivers excuse for this one. The front wheel and suspension has simply fallen to bits. This is not the result of a crash, no air-bags deployed and no damage to the car except for the wheel falling off. The stems of the ball joints are snapped. These same failures of snapped ball joint stems happen repeatedly on teslas. There is something badly wrong with the manufacturing process and inspection. This car has only covered 6000 miles. Why in the world are you allowing tesla to get away with this? Yours in disgust. Keef |
