Pissed Off Tesla Driver Goes On 25 Minute Rant Over Horrific 1st Year Of Ownership $TSLA

Tesla owner Tyler Martin was giddy as a school girl last December when he picked up his brand new Model S – until he began noticing several problems.

From paint damage and misaligned trim panels on his new customer walkthrough to creaks, rattles, a defective windshield and broken mirrors – poor Tyler has paid a heavy price to let the world know he’s making a difference in his coal-powered electric car.

Among the issues he mentions are paint imperfections, a dusty touch screen, and poor trim alignment on the door—these were what he found on the day the car was delivered. Other issues quickly crept up, but Martin waited about six months and 3,000 miles before taking his new car to a service center. When he did, he mentioned to the technicians that his electric driver-side mirror would only unfold partially; he had to physically push it the rest of the way.

Martin also asked the shop to get the door trim lined up properly, but allegedly the mechanics couldn’t quite get it perfect. In addition, Martin mentioned that his rear passenger-side door had a strange delay between the handle being pulled and the door actually opening.

On top of that, he told the shop about a rattle from the rear passenger-side door, a crooked steering wheel when driving straight, a front door that creaked when it opened, and a defective windshield with little horizontal lines in it.

IT GETS WORSE!

By Martin’s second service visit to address all the problems cropping up, Martin reported a “number of new rattles,” the passenger door panel separating from the door frame, and an off-center steering wheel.

By the time a technician came to Martin’s house for the car’s second service, a new rattle had popped up in the front passenger-side door. The technician fixed this, and replaced the windshield (with one that was also defective). Shortly after this service, Martin says he was sitting in his passenger seat, and noticed the door trim coming off (see above).

Over the next few thousand miles, the car developed a number of new rattles, including one in the center console and one in the B-pillar. The steering wheel remained crooked, the HVAC fan squeaked and the car’s charging port struggled to open with the remote.

WEIRD YELLOW LINE OF HELL

Martin’s biggest disappointment of all was a “weird yellow line” that appeared around the 17-inch touchscreen – the central information hub of the Model S.

    The Tesla is like a Hollywood Pedo, everyone knows it’s bad, but no one will admit it for fear of being rejected by their peers.

    Hard to listen to a guy under 30 whine about a car that is something you would buy when your have quite a lot of money to spend driving around and going to a job that society probably won’t need in the next Apocalypse.

    He should have purchased an actual vehicle with a history of quality vs some Elon Musk rouse.

    That generation is dopey.

    Call me old fashioned but Tesla cars are and always were flaky. And all those positive reviews you read/heard about Tesla cars? All fake news. Infomercials. Complainers were paid to shut up in the past. The rest are going thru buyers’s remorse episodes.
