Jay - I have tracked this data for years. I agree the Government information might be wrong, but the Tesla data has not been proven wrong.
I do admit people have been trying to discredit Tesla, well, forever. Because they are so far out in front of traditional auto on EVERY front, they can't be caught. Test drive a CyberTruck (Yes, I''m sure you hate the way it looks) - it blows away the Model Y, and the Model Y blows away everything else.
Did they fix all their QA issues? My 2016 Tesla had a bent hood and my friends X had to be almost rebuilt from QA issues.....
I keep hearing these stories, but have experienced none of them - and we have dozens of friends and acquaintances that own Tesla's.
On a Model 3 I had in 2018, the charge door broke and was replaced under warranty, came to my garage and fixed it. I do know one of our friends had some type of drivetrain issue and it was fixed as well.
I have had zero problems other than that on any of the Tesla's I have owned.
Not to say this is you, but many that complain about all these problems turn out to be Tesla hacks. I'm not saying there are not problems. The first several hundred CyberTrucks were a mess - still being fixed. Tesla is a fast moving company - they error on the side of 'fast changes' versus complacency. In this type of environment you will have some problems. BUT you also end up with products/services FAR ahead of the competition. Finding the right balance is no easy task!
My Model 3 from 2021( Shanghai GF) is in top condition after 70k km.No Problems until now.The QA is much better then People scream
This for sure is not the first time someone died on Tesla cyber truck .
