I have no knowledge any of this is related to the crease issue, but I had a loaner brought to my house so the SC could rotate my tires. This is the fourth time I have had a loaner for this reason, but this was the first time the valet driver took a close walk around my car, noting every little rock ding, scratch, etc., on paper, and then had me sign that I agree with these observations. My thoughts went to this thread, as I think the SC guys got word to proactively document any defects before leaving an owner's property with their car. I am fine with this, and think it is a good thing to do. It protects TM and the owner should there be any disputes.
By the same token, no owner should ever accept their vehicle back from service unless they conduct the same inspection to make sure the service center did not inadvertently damage a part of the car. Discovering a crease in the frunk hood once you get home doesn't help if you didn't point it out at the service center when you picked up your car.
I recently picked my car up from service with a crease. Tesla sent the car to a body shop for repair. I used the frunk a few days after the repair. I'm very cautious about where I place my hands. There is now another crease in the hood. I'm not sure what to do now.
Unbelievable this is still an issue, it's unacceptable. There should be no wrong/right way to close the frunk. It should be idiot proof, as in "let's-reinforce-this-frunk-so-even-if-some-drunk-guy-decides-to-close-it-with-his-butt-idiot-proof"

There are always "right" ways to do things. Adding many pounds of hood reinforcement is not the optimal approach. As has been pointed out, other cars with aluminum hoods also require cars.
I'm sure the hood could be engineered with minimal weight gain and be significantly more durable
Agree. Do we know if anyone has had a frunk problem on a car built recently?
My thought is that whether or not your hood is susceptible to denting depends on how hard it is to close. Tolerances being what they are, some cars have hoods that require a major push to close them and others don't.I don't notice a change in the design of the hood between VIN1653 and 55228.
It sounds to me like you are in the market for a Saturn.
