This Tesla Had A Major Issue...

Tesla: “it’s more fun when driving is a challenge”

[rivalepic]

Imagine this happening in like a corvette and you swerve off the road💀

[atharshaikh]

Car owner: my stearing wheel came off
Tesla: its detachable

[lombordi]

Misleading content.

They didnt charge him 100$. They created a service case for 100$.

The invoice says that the final invoice will be corrected to 0$ if the damage falls under warranty.

Also I simply don't believe the owner received a new car, probably they just got a rental tesla for the duration of the repair, which is indeed a goodwill and no one is entitled to it.

When a company gives you ANYTHING, they know it was their fault, they just don’t want the bad PR

Tesla : I provide you auto pilot mode.
Also Tesla : It's my choice to provide you auto pilot or non-steer control mode or even pull steering off from the car.

Tesla is like: Your own fault for getting a Tesla

This is easily removed and anyone with some tools can remove it. I will doubt the authenticity of this.

[ChasingThrills]

They went from charging $100 for a new steering wheel to a new car💀

[JazzKazoo]

Car companies have a duty to ensure that their vehicles are safe, something as critical as the steering wheel just falling off is completely unacceptable

“Goodwill” is where their cars will end up if they keep acting like this 😂

As a tesla owner, I recognize that service screen. You have to accept the invoice for accounting purposes but as long as you’re under 50k miles the “warranty covered” will automatically fill into the payment section. I’ve had the steering wheel, the left taillight and repeater cam replaced all free under warranty and tesla themselves offered a swap instead of fix. Something about this story seems off, the family could’ve taken the story public before even reaching out to customer service. I’ve personally seen the way the warranty quote misunderstanding plays out in the service center and it’s usually just them getting cooked until they explain you won’t be charged you just need to accept what the price would be prior to warranty kicking in. Usually just geezers getting pissed

[OfficiallySnek]

Bruh, they could have just fixed the steering wheel 💀

[HisMajesty]

Tesla is so confident in it’s auto pilot that it lets Jesus take the wheel, literally.

[takingafatdump]

i love how tesla has to back up a good customer service decision with “it’s good will, don’t expect this again”

[mjolnir]

Car owner: my steering sheel came off
Tesla: it's from our new system update, it's a quick release now.

[ursulpolal]

Instead of going to Twitter I would have rather sued them.

[fataldesolation]

As a mechanic if you forget to put the bolt or nut on a steering wheel and that wheel comes of, you, the mechanic is held liable. I’ve seen shops that eat the bill and cover repairs but the mechanic still has to repay the shop in someway. Shouldn’t be any different for a manufacturer.

[lsixty]

They went from being harmfully stingy to self incriminatingly generous 😂

[avonzo]

“Goodwill” is the way companies stop further blames coming their way. If people are a bit more kinder companies can be a bit more honest and open.
