Hi Chris, I have a Fremont Y LR that we picked up in June last year. We have done almost 12K miles with zero issues. I did not have any delivery issues and so far have not had to use Tesla Service. My family loves it and my older son who got to drive it a few times agrees on how amazing it is. I love your videos and please keep them coming!

[@EverydayChris]

Wow so glad you had a great experience

[@Alexzver1]

I just wanted to say thank you, probably the reason I bought Model Y. Awesome videos 😊 I have my Model Y for about 7 months and with 12k miles on it. Every time I get into the car, I still drive with biggest smile on my face. Never getting gas car again. Tesla is the true cult 😂

how many Porsche 911's have you driven because they are so far ahead of Tesla as far as quality, steering feel, braking etc its not even funny. heck the turbo S is just a tiny bit slower than a model s plaid to 60mph, but crushes it on a closed road course.

[@HypocritesExposd]

I found about 5-6 tiny fit and finish issues upon delivery. The awesome service center crew took care of it all without complaint or making me feel ashamed or guilty for even asking. My issues were minuscule and definitely were within spec, but they fixed it all anyways.

[@steveb6709]

@@HypocritesExposd I had two small flubs in the speaker cover and they replaced it no issue and one interior piece of plastic needed to be snapped back in place in the hatch. My service center was great to work with. I think Tesla appeals partly to a tech crowd that doesn’t understand automobiles and they think they are getting a perfect machine like an iPhone “the technology” people. Tesla is a small car company compared to the rest of the industry under tremendous pressure and demand for its products. Expect to have extensive service as this is a highly proprietary product that can only be serviced by Tesla Motors, this is not an economy car! Nothing about Tesla is cheap! Except for the absence of gasoline. The car is amazing but it’s not a Honda, don’t expect it to be like one.

[@HypocritesExposd]

@@steveb6709 agreed. It’s funny when people compare a Tesla to a Honda Civic or Toyota Corolla. Of course the total cost of ownership will be lower for an ICE car like that, but I’ve had a single reliable ICE car for 20 years. Life is too short and I got the Tesla because it’s the car I want for the next 10-20 years. By that time, I’m going to be near retirement, so I’m just trying to enjoy the surprisingly huge amount of time I spend in my car as much as possible.

[@stkuj]

I ordered my 2021 3SR+ from clicking the button to home delivery was less than 2 weeks. I order my 2023 Y from clicking the button on 1/13 to picking it up at the dealer 2/3 (about a week delay due to me not filling in all the paperwork). I will say that the "dealer" experience was fair. It was hurry up, hurry up, hurry up (due to all the texts, emails, etc to tell me to reschedule delivery early). We got there and had to wait 30 mins for a guy to help us even though we had an appt. End of the day, I have 2 Tesla's in garage; so I guess you can say that I'm super happy with them.

You know why NWO wants EVs so bad?? becuase they dont want people to drive and be mobile anymore.They want total control over majority of people. Evs are perfect. A: there wont be enough EVs for majorioty of people to have one, only the rich will drive. B: they can easily shut off the power and stop your movment during civil wars or protests. no power cant charge them. . ( gasoline you can stock pile gas and drive for months or years with out a gas station) C: again if you live in senior center apartments or highrise buildings you wont be able to charge them or not be allowed to own them. ( some stratas are already banning the instalation of charge ports being installed in there buildings)The Covid Hoax lockdowns were a TEST to see if people would tolerate having there mobility removed. These Evs are much worse for the planet. now we will clear cut forests to build Hydro plants, mine the entire planet for minerals, and set up nuclear power plants in ever city to produce more power. LA has rolling black outs durring the summer becuase of to many people using there Air conditoners, but you people think it will be fines with everyone pluging in these cars at 5 pm? LOL...

[@DavidBallard-m4g]

Bought a 2021 Model 3. Within the first year the car lost power and would not charge. I contacted Tesla and they had the car towed to the nearest service center. They provided me with a loaner vehicle. It took them service center 3 weeks to make the repairs. The main computer failed so it was replaced. When I went to pick up the vehicle it was still in the maintenance mode so I had to wait for a tech to return to normal driving mode. I was never given an update during this process. Very frustrating. I really love the Tesla and enjoy the technology. Not sold on all electric. I am going back to a hybrid vehicle in the near future.

[@tomooo2637]

I have a Freemont made one (lease) for 2 years from 2020 and its fit and finish was fair, and had a cracked rear window due to the old heater element having and bad design - replaced and a model-S loaner. I now have a Chinese made car (2022) and it is fantastic and very well made with no issues. I think the Chinese made Tesla cars are very well made and to a much higher quality than the Freemont made cars.

[@gadgetperson5128]

Great video. I am having my doubts also. I picked up my MYLR on 2/10/22. I looked it over and it appeared fine BUT when I got to my detailer who put the film and ceramic pro on for me he noticed a scratch on the driver side rear window. Personally I think it was scratched by the prep people at my pickup location since I saw them wiping a car down for delivery and they were not careful - wiping from the bottom of the car to the top using the same cloth and never cleaning it. That was resolved by replacing the window but I have another on going problem - my ultrasonic sensors in the front do not work and hence Park Assist does not work. It was that way from day one, then suddenly started working and more recently stopped again. Remote analysis said that he saw the car moving and distances changing and he speculated that it was a problem with software/UI. I brought the car to the service center yesterday and they indicated that it was a problem with the protective film which I seriously doubt BUT I see that some detailers remove the film from the sensors and also saw one report of the same problem. The problem, IMHO, is the service center not looking at their own data as provided by the remote technician. They now say that none of the sensors work - which has never happened since I have used the rear distances as a parking assist in my garage. It sure sounds like the software/UI problem since he could see movement remotely but it never gets to the screen. I guess it is Let the Buyer Beware with Tesla. Removing the film from the sensors makes Tinting Your Tesla as you did 1 month ago on KZbin kind of difficult. Who wants to drive a blue car with a bunch of white (or other color) dots showing? I'll follow-up when it is resolved - if ever. Do other followers of yours have this problem? Thanks again. Your videos are helpful.

I took delivery of my Model Y January 26, 2023. I unfortunately ordered my Y in the beginning of May 2022 so I missed the coupon for the Tesla Home Charger by 3-5 days had I known I would’ve ordered it in April and not thought too much about it. My consolation is that I saved $11,000 with the price drop and get the $7500 tax credit. I so far have driven around 3000 miles, I don’t have wi-fi so I have to go to the service center/delivery service to update my Y. One thing I would’ve been appreciative is if they told me where the hazard button is. I drive Lyft/Uber and need that button. I had to ask my friend who has a Y Performance.

I do regret buying my Model 3.

2020 Model Y Performance which was built right after the Fremont factory reopened back around June 2020 when the Covid lockdowns first hit. About 65k miles on it now (yes, I drove it a lot, because it's very fun to drive), and some minor fit & finish issues. But when I first picked it up, the one of the front cameras wasn't aligned, so Autopilot didn't work for around the first two weeks or so. However, this being my first Tesla, I used that time to learn 1-pedal driving. Now it feels weird to me if I have to use the brake pedal. And Autopilot's been fine since, aside from the increasingly rare phantom braking events. My only real gripe is that I wish mine came with a heated steering wheel. It's nice to have in Midwest winters. But thankfully I just direct the airflow to blow roughly where my hands are on the steering wheel, which helps. Oh, and that tires are expensive. But 0-60 in 3.5 seconds is really fun and useful for merging onto a busy freeway, or to smoke any car trying to race me at the "stoplight grand prix".

By 1910 both Thomas Edison and Henry Ford gave up on the idea of the battery-operated automobile. Ford in the following year introduced the Model T which was both affordable, and reliable. The same year Chevrolet the famous racing car daredevil sold his interest in GM due to a disagreement over manufacturing an expensive fast vehicle versus an affordable car for the masses. The Chevrolet would overtake Ford in sales and become the American Car. Today TESLA (misnamed since Edison invented the battery-operated car) is in a nitch market and is fine for wealthy Californians. Not so where the temperatures are hot or freezing cold.

I've had better experience with my service center appointment - but because I knew my normal service center was known to be not so great - so I rescheduled for a different center. However, I will say, that if you have an issue that can be addressed with the mobile service - that is the way to go. The lack of human numbers to call is a real downside - I prefer using the app and website for the most part but sometimes you need a human to help. Beyond a couple minor service appointments (one mobile and one at a center), I've had no issues. About 18 months and about 12k miles.

Thanks for the video! After 3 years, 30K miles, my model still keeps me smiling. I agree service is probably the weakest link in the Tesla ownership experience. My (only) issue was squeaky control arm joints (warranty repair). They said 1-day, but kept the car 4, w/no loaners, offered Enterprise, etc. Nevertheless, imho Tesla is a great company, despite growing pains.

[@EverydayChris]

Haha yeah true growing pains thanks for watchin!

You’ve only driven 30k in the past two years?

From ordering to delivery, incl. trading-in my ICE vehicle, I experienced the entire process very positively in Switzerland last year. My Model 3 LR didn't have the slightest imperfection, was spotlessly cleaned and after 12000 km (almost 7500 miles) everything still works perfectly. Maybe it's just luck, who knows.

That’s your standard ? 12,000km? My tdi has 330,000km & am only considering buying a 23 model y used in 2 years when my car rolls over 400,000km.

[@MegaSoccerking7]

7500 miles and everything is working perfect? uhh yeahhh duhhh its brand new

[@Matt_Parks]

I couldn’t agree with this more. My Tesla ownership experience has been good, but the service center experience has been some of the worst auto experiences I’ve ever had. Almost left the brand entirely multiple times

[@wgemini4422]

How bad could it be? I have never had a good experience with Toyota dealers and I have gone to multiple dealers. They always try to sell you something you don't need and appointments can take very long. So unless it's a luxury car, do dealerships ever provide good experiences?

[@harmony3138]

@@wgemini4422 Many Tesla owners claim it to be a luxury car. The German car dealers has been the best in my experience.

Love that you guys are giving Simba an awesome adventure while he's battling cancer. I hope he heals soon. Love your channel too!

[@EverydayChris]

Thanks so much! Will keep you updated!

[@gautearefjord]

You dont have to ask neighbours. You check out workshops and number of issues compared to other cars. The tecknology and speed is fantastic. But number of issues compared to other cars is huge.

[@TCPUDPATM]

Good luck Simba. At least you have great parents!

5 month M3LR owner. '22 model. No service issues but the black paint sucks! Do not get black! Never been to any car wash, always hand washed and garaged. Rock chips galore on the hood. My 2006 Chevy Cobalt's black paint was WAY better than this, and that car was 18k MSRP and had 120k miles when I got rid of it and the paint on that car's hood looked better than my 65k Tesla's now after only 10k miles!

[@Cornelius87]

Call me old fashion but if I buy a brand new vehicle and it gives me any major issue before 60k-80k miles I'm probably never buying another car from that brand. If I buy a new car I shouldn't even need to review their customer service for years.

[@michaels-welt5899]

So, overall, 50% of new Teslas have Issues in the first Year of usage? Wow thats bad... thats really bad. How can a car like this be called "high quality"? My VW Golf 2006 had 1 Problem with the Passangerdoor Lock in the last 6 years and 80.000 km. I could fix it myself for 60 Euros.

[@jjohur]

Bought three Teslas and have had zero issues. Picked up and left without having to buy tons of dealer add ons. No pressure, no upselling, no hidden fees, no markup … i had a Nissan Maxima and a Infiniti G37 both with engine issues. One after 12k miles and one at 30k miles. The Maxima was in the shop for 45 days. My point is that every car manufacturer have issues and problems. I agree that Tesla service could be improved but no other car manufacturer has a Ranger service. Tesla is at least on par with US auto makers. Lexus service is probably superior to everyone. I definitely believe that our M3P and MYP are the best cars we have ever had. My audi RS5, audi s6, MB C43 AMG, Lexis IS350 all had worse problems and the maintenance was horrendous. You don’t mention anything about minimal maintenance cost with an EV. My RS5 cost over $5k to get rotors replaced as they can’t be resurfaced and for a complete brake job. Someone complaining about tires has never had a high performance car obviously. All of those cars need tires replaced every 20k miles. Our MB needed new tires after 10k miles. Teslas are super fast cars and will beat most ICE cars any day. Holistically Tesla has the best cars … if you don’t believe me at least test drive one.

[@cliffm8846]

As the new owner of TESLA X, we are SO MAD from our last Road Trip (5K miles), as we SPENT HOURS MORE just to stop EVERY 150 -200 MILES, unlike our 2023 TOYOTA SIENNA PLATINUM HYBRID that can DRIVE for 500 MILES even you're driving 90-100Mph with FULL LOAD of stuff, wirh captain chairs, huge monitor in the back, more leg & head room, etc............... For a LONG ROAD TRIP, do NOT fuckin bring a TESLA, just bring or rent the LATEST MINIVAN in the market, period.

[@SavetheWater1]

issues with the battery and being out of commish makes it a no go for us. Going Lexus Hybrid instead.

[@bb5op585]

“Avoiding those dirty fossil fuel stations” while driving in the car that uses batteries that were mined by fossil fuel machines and processed by fossil fuel powered factories 🤡. Also how convenient it is to wake up to a fully charged battery that was charged by your home, which is powered by a fossil fueled power station 🤡.

[@PWRDBYVIBRNM]

It amazes me how Tesla owners spend $50-$100k for a brand new car. It's get delivered and the body parts don't line up correctly! They down play the issue and say it's not a big deal! Like what? Guess it's the Elon juice that has them drunk.

[@AnimeFtw]

makes me all the more happy with my 2016 216k mile camry. Reliable and dependable.
