    Build quality issues are exaggerated!

    I understand them saying nothing is wrong with the car so they can try to sale it to some other poor soul but not them saying the refund amount is dependent on there being no damage beyond normal wear and tear. The entire vehicle has paint issues beyond normal wear and tear.

    Delivery and service nightmare

    I think you need to talk to a lawyer and let them know you are considering hiring one. I dont know what state you are in but my car would’ve qualified as a lemon here. In my state its just not safety concerns its something that significantly decreases the value of the car and has had at least...

    Build quality issues are exaggerated!

    Did they ask you to sign paperwork saying that you are aware that Tesla states there are no issues or defects with the car and that they aren’t liable for any issues with the car? And also says that the vehicle you are returning has no damage other than normal wear and tear?

They used so much rubbing compound that they put massive burnt marks on the car. I also had to get a new windshield because somehow when the car was transferred before delivery...

There were multiple other black brand new model ys at the service center with tape all around them pointing out the paint correction areas. I was told by an advisor to only get a white or grey...

    Bad Paint Job

    I had the opposite experience with centinella sc and jim & jacks. They made the scratches worse and they used so much rubbing compound that there are large burnt spots on the car. Among the many, terrible things they did, the worst was probably when the manager and assistant manager both lied...
