Adding this thread to track status of MY issues we hope to see addressed and corrected.
Two examples are: 1. It was revealed some weeks/months ago that seat structural safety
test(s) were old and deficient. There was an accident situation identified that would cause
seats to break in a way likely to be fatal, but seats in many cars (including Teslas) pass the
deficient test with no problem. My recollection is that some minor structural changes to the
seats would resolve the safety concern. I have not read any follow up that Tesla plans to
make the needed change.
2. There was an article some weeks ago that there is a design issue with Model Y hatch that
allows a rear end fender bender to extensively damage back end parts and lead to huge
repair expense to fix.
Does anyone recall these and have further information on whether and when Tesla is going
to fix these issues? If anyone has concerns about other issues with uncertain outcomes, please
add them to this thread.
