Previously, the editor of the "Automotive Professional Network" had reported that Tesla had recalled 11 times in the United States in less than four months! And stories like this, Tesla continues. On the foreign side, Tesla has been hammered by the US regulatory authorities, and the problem focuses on the "ghost brake", which makes the US Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) look down.
It is reported that after hundreds of new owner complaints were added to the Tesla Model 3/Y this week, NHTSA began to investigate Tesla's "ghost brake" problem. In the past three months, the number of ghost brake problems that owners have complained to NHTSA has risen to 107, compared with 34 in the first 22 months.
Domestic Tesla has also opened a recall again. Recently, Tesla issued a "recall" order to recall some domestic Model 3 and Model Y electric vehicles produced between December 28, 2020 and January 15, 2022, a total of 26,047 vehicles, and the reason for the recall was the decline in defrosting functions and safety hazards. It is worth noting that this recall is an online recall, that is, through the remote upgrade technology of the car, the software upgrade is carried out for the vehicles within the scope of the recall, and the user does not need to go to the store to complete the recall.
The editor noted that every time Tesla's negative news appeared, there would always be two camps, one part of which was a netizen who sang about Tesla, and the other part was a netizen who maintained Tesla. Netizens who maintain Tesla were once called "special filial piety" by the "hostile camp".
What makes non-Tesla owners curious is whether the recall of various vehicle problems such as Tesla airbags, suspensions, brakes, trunk covers and rearview cameras will have any fluctuations in the hearts of owners who have purchased Teslas? In this regard, the editor of "Automotive Professional Network" interviewed several Tesla owners.
A professional Tesla owner majoring in automotive engineering told the editor of automotive professional network that he would be hesitant to see these recalls before buying Tesla, but he would not after buying and understanding. According to the owner, Tesla open API, just like android phones, has the ability to fully develop, may officially update bugs or change a UI takes three months or even half a year, but there are many code farmers for the phone to make changes, you can buy code farmers after the modification of the technology, you can also sponsor.
"The opening of Tesla's API interface can realize the anti-theft of the whole vehicle and the active security protection of the whole vehicle, such as anti-peeping." If you dislike Tesla's slow acceleration, you can open the motor power, and the power consumption will not increase too much after the upgrade, the official acceleration package is 14,000 yuan, and the price of the code farmer is 5,000 yuan. Tesla car crash, you can also adjust the threshold down. The owner said that Tesla officials can not make a perfect solution for each car, but domestic code farmers and foreign code farmers can.
Two young Tesla owners who have just graduated from college have told the editor that they do not care about the quality recall news, because they like Tesla's sense of acceleration and control, and think that Tesla, especially the Model 3 Performance, the motor acceleration of this car is invincible, which makes people feel "one person and car".
In fact, in addition to Tesla's "die-hard fans", Tesla owners who "turn the road to powder" are not in the minority. Recently, the editor saw a self-defeating thing about Tesla on the Internet, a car owner went to the Mercedes-Benz 4S shop to repair the car, and the 4S shop provided him with a scooter, which is Tesla Model 3, which is said to be the 4S store renting the Model 3 to repair customers. What people did not expect was that after the customer drove the Model 3 for a few days, he felt that the control and acceleration of the Model 3 were good, and now he has begun to consider changing cars.
Coincidentally, an Euler good cat owner, because the steering wheel will "lock" the problem during the vehicle and successfully returned, after returning the car, the owner quickly transferred a Tesla Model Y, one of the reasons is because Tesla is good-looking.
As a vane in the new energy industry, Tesla has always been a lot of recalls, complaints and sales. Can this electric vehicle brand, which coexists with turmoil and glory, continue to sell better and more "wantonly" under the wave of menacing new domestic forces?
