We’ve seen this with other vehicles such as the Jeep Wrangler and Chevrolet Corvette.”

I like the features of the Tesla, I hope they improve so I can purchase a model Y. My current non Tesla electric is 2 years old without a single issue. It takes serious problems for CR to issue a not recommended.

This is where you are dead wrong. The issue that caused consumer reports to reverse then reverse again was paint and trim. Neither of them have anything to do with the reliability of the car and were far from serious problems.

If you think Tesla people overlook problems because they are blinded to reality then you are probably right that you don't need a Tesla.

The only thing you seem to be looking at is the outliers or those with a problem and are ignoring the other 95% of the satisfied customers.

I have shown you the numbers and you keep trying to make excuses but Tesla owners have the highest satisfaction rating of any other car out there including porches, Jeeps and corvettes warts and all.
