How is it a lemon? A lemon is defined as having the same problem multiple times. Having a 12v battery go flat is not that big of a deal.
Wouldn't conform with the "lemon" laws.
One repair does not a lemon make.
Your mob attacks are unfounded and uncivilized. There was more than one fault and repair. You should have better read and better comprehended the original post before responding.
I think it is a "big deal" that after a week in the shop, that the car has a similar problem a few days later. I would be displeased with the car and the service. It hurts Tesla's reputation.
It is redundant and clear that there were at least two incidents.
After waiting for 1 whole week waiting for my MS 60 to be brought back from the service center in Menlo Park last Friday, I find my MS60 dead again in my garage.
Two Fridays ago it was dead and was towed out on a Monday morning. The service center was excellent, prompt, and conscientious in updating me. It spent 4 days in Menlo Park service. They replaced a faulty drive unit.
I was pleased to have it back last Friday delivered by 2 courteous Tesla employees.
I drove it sparingly over the weekend mindful of not venturing too far from home base.
This morning it is completely dead. Interestingly, the drivers window is open. I am unable to unplug the wall charger. The fob does not work near the wiper even to open the doors.
I was able to reach the Tesla help number but not the service center.
The wife gave me a quizzical look as she drove away in her Prius.
I am annoyed. I am disappointed.
I love how things alternate between "People should stop doubting Tesla! Sign up now! Convince your friends!" and "You should expect problems going in. You should wait".
It funny how fan boys often argue out of both sides of their mouth. It's like they have multiple personality disorder or can't remember all their lies, therefore show contradictions and inconsistencies.
One minute they will argue that Tesla is the best and most reliable car, then in the next breath they will make excuses claiming that as an early adopter; problems should be expected, ignored and tolerated.
apparently every person whose Model S dies is going to create their own thread about the topic.
enough.
easy killer, i was just saying maybe we should have one "car unresponsive/asleep" thread that collects all these similar instances. instead of the main page having multiple "my car is dead" threads on the front page...
I think that would be wrong. That kind of thing already happens too much.
Not every similar symptom has the same cause and doesn't have the same solution. Merging a bunch of similar threads muddies up the water, adds to the confusion, runs off on more tangents, lowers the intelligence and results in more bickering.
Entitled to your opinion....but, they say opinions are like ...... Everybody has one.
Mods can decide what's what.
I think it is often great when moderators merge threads on identical news stories or identical topics. Often started accidentally by people that don't realize the same story or identical topic is posted in another part of the forum.
However I think some of the mods are trigger happy and reckless to merge different stories that are similar or merge different threads that were trying to make different points.
Merging a bunch of similar threads muddies up the water, adds to the confusion, tangents, and lowers the intelligence and results in more bickering.
Similarly merging different threads that are trying to make different points; muddies up the water, adds to the confusion, tangents, lowers the intelligence and results in more bickering.
Sometimes merging similar but different threads lowers the intelligence and lowers the civility.
