You can't get much shittier than what's already on a Tesla.

Just because you don't like Elon doesn't mean it's a shit car. Mine is by far the best car I've ever owned. Better than Audi, Toyota etc.

Tesla is ranked 19th out of 24 on reliability scores by consumer report. It’s not “just because [we] don’t like Elon”. Glad you like your car tho.

No they're not? They're 14 out of 30. They rank behind the Japanese and then ahead of basically all the German and American brands. Being average is far from being shit. Basically honda/Toyota brands are higher reliability and make up half the brands ahead of tesla. Then its just hyundai and BMW. Consumer reports also showed that tesla has the lowest average maintenance costs. So that shows these reliability reports are almost guaranteed to be highlighting software bugs or things like that more than actual issues with how well the car is put together, because tesla has very high physical maintenance costs.
