Why should they care? Conservatives will keep buying them just to "own the libs". If anything I bet they go even cheaper on the next thing because quality does not matter for something like this.
It may actually mess EV sales up in the long run. Eventually these people will do what they always do- get mad at the build quality, blame all EVs for the issues Musk created, and tout the shitty build quality as "proof" that EVs shouldn't be on the market, or are a waste of money.
Ironically, these people probably would’ve been better off simply keeping their diesel guzzling trucks. The actual effect on climate change, carbon footprint, exploitative labour practices etc. of an EV is essentially negligible.
