A source that's not the daily mirror: https://www.businessinsider.com/tesla-owners-bill-battery-damaged-ev-scotland-weather-2023-10
Daily mirror was already a low quality source, now they even use "ai" to "embellish" the story (read: add fake details).
They added this to the bottom:
An AI tool was used to add an extra layer to the editing process for this story
Thank you, my eyes are still twitching 5 minutes after closing the page 😵💫
Thank god there are so many better quality EV choices out there these days.
Designed in California. Reminds me of the missing rain gutter around the boot of the model 3. When you open(ed) it while it was raining, all the water would pour right into your boot, onto your stuff.
Then you have wet socks all day
By boot I'm assuming you mean the trunk?
When you say trunk, i assume you mean for swimming?
On the model 3, yeah, because of all the rain pouring in.
And it comes full circle!
Yes.
Because cars clearly do not need to stand up to rain, like that ever happens anywhere...
Do people read this headline and believe that this is a design flaw? That of all Teslas sold and driven anywhere in the entire world since they were first sold, none have ever been in rain?
There was major flooding around where this Tesla was. Idiots obviously drove it in flood water or it got submerged while parked. This is an insurance problem, not a click bait "herrrr derrrr Elon so stupid" problem.
And if they are stupid enough to not have had insurance on a brand new car, this is a "point and laugh at the idiot crying to the press" problem
There are Teslas fucking everywhere in and near Seattle. If rain was a problem for the cars then there would be zero here, instead they're like every tenth car.
While probably true, Teslas build quality is very questionable. It was probably a little of column A, a bit of column B.
This seems a bit fishy to me, I don't buy it.
I reckon the couple had done something stupid in the car like drive it through a ~~fjord~~ ford that was deeper than they thought, or through a flooded section of road and actually did submerge the battery. Multiple times.
Then went to dinner. And the car had enough.
They get the scary quote, then decide to omit the majority of the day's activities when complaining to the local newspaper in order to shame Tesla/Elon to pay up.
A fjord?? Or a ford?
That Tesla's not broken, it's just pining for the fjords
A Ford might get stuck in the fjord
Tesla is too funny.
meanwhile with a bike the most egregious surprise cost you can get is if your e-bike gets totalled and you have to buy a new one, which would cost like $1000
