[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm quite frustrated trying to gauge whether Tesla is a good buy. You constantly read about the quality control issues that have plagued Tesla, but Teslas constantly get outstanding reviews in Car and Driver etc.  So which is it?  Were the quality issues only a rough patch that Tesla is over? Or are quality issues still a problem?  Are reviews on Tesla giving them high marks accurate?  Really hard to discern between the extreme haters, the hardcore fanboys, and just s good 'ol honest to good unbiased opinion about Teslas.[/quote]

I haven't read through the thread but I bought a Tesla Model 3 last December.  I had the same question you did, and where I landed was that Tesla was terrible early on with quality as they were literally figuring out how to manufacture at scale.  They are better now, although I still wouldn't buy the first run model of any vehicle, for instance the first Cybertruck.  The Model 3 and Y seem "safe" to buy because they have been making them for a while now from a factory (Fremont) that has been up and running for a while.  FWIW, no issues in the last 13 months with my M3.  One flat tire due to a nail, and one factory recall for a climate/heat sensor that took them a couple hrs to replace.[/quote]
