    Person buys the first version of a brand new and very complicated vehicle and then complains when it doesn’t work.

      Being a vehicle weighing ~3 tonnes & a top speed of 111Mph… I expect all critical systems to go thorough testing. They’re the systems which allow safe operation of the truck.

      Having bugs in the infotainment is one thing. Having bugs in crtical systems is extremely alarming.

        Honestly, from a safety prospective they’re doing fine. A fail safe scenario is a safe scenario. From a usability perspective… Well a failure is a failure.

          Ever suffer a critical failure in an ICE car at highway speeds? I have, and it’s not fun. A mechanic didn’t replace the drain plug properly in my transmission, and it came loose at 50+ MPH. The transmission fluid drained out and the car suddenly started shaking violently and I couldn’t shift. I was lucky there was very little traffic and was able to pull over safely, but it was a heart stopping experience.

          I would definitely not want to have the powertrain failing, etc. in a similar situation. Especially in a car that’s a few days old. The cybertruck has steer-by-wire in part because the rear wheels turn. Imagine if that was a system that failed at highway speeds.

        Why? This is no worse QC than the other American automakers have been cranking out for decades now.

      I mean how could I possibly expect that something I bought should work

        Yes truly, it’s fully the consumer’s fault for being lied to by a psychopathic billionaire.

      Person spends upwards of $55,000USD on a vehicle they were told is the best in the world and it doesn’t work.

      Edit: also, this technology isn’t “new” anymore. Tesla should be getting better at it, not worse.

      Do you think road safety standards are stringent just for fun? This is a category of products that can easily get people killed with flaws, you numpty.

      Stop excusing people selling you garbage, you trash person. I have to assume your standards are trash if you will happily pay for trash.
