Oh it can definetly be denied...and even called BS. The model S and X have been in production for years with hundreds of thousands of happy customers. The model 3 already has about 300 thousand on the road again with lots of happy customers and excellent ratings. But feel free to make stuff up. :)
Where did I say they have not produced vehicles? Re-read what I wrote. I will give you an example. Rear bumpers flying off Model 3's in the rain. Do you know how to fix that before production? Testing like the other manufactures do. But Tesla puts them in consumers hands and says, let us know what breaks and we will modify as we go.
A couple of owners reported it happening a year ago.
"A couple of owners" LOL
This was a design problem and it affects ALL model 3's.
In short the rear bumper facia was designed as a bathtub and had no way to drain water. So what did it do? Fill up and fell off! LMAO.
Then we have the front belly pan collecting a LOT of dirt and sand. Another design defect.
Yes a design issue, not a manufacturing issue. Like no other manufacturers ever have design issues with production vehicles.
Then don't try and downplay it and say "a couple of owners"
Much like the LB7 injector problem this will effect every M3 in wet weather. The rear bumper facia was designed as a scoop. It will hold water and fall off if it fills with water.
This is only one design problem. You want me to list more; because there is LOTS more.
Sure, list them. I’m not a Tesla booster but can’t help but wonder why you hate them so much.
