Serious Malfunction / Model Y shut down while driving after only 10 miles out of dealership.

Seems like yet another brand new Model Y has stopped in its tracks on the road. No doubt the army will be out in force telling the owner they drove it wrong, or baselessly claiming they hit something, or even just claiming it's fake.
Either way, the excuse generator is kicking into overdrive.
I just realized, we can now post links to Reddit threads and they (probably) won't come back here to complain about it!
Not that I want us to become brigaders or invaders mind you. But /r/buttcoin was getting banned for posting links. As long as we aren't assholes about this, I think I'm fine with posting links to threads / forum topics.

Wow. This is the part I didn't expect. I guess the /r/TeslaModelY subreddit is less of a circlejerk than other subreddits then? It seems like the discussion here is more supportive of the owner than what I'd expect from other subreddits.
Lemon cars have existed forever.
You know how I know? Lemon laws exist.
Shit on Tesla for some of the real garbage they do instead of nonsense like this.
Wow, Tesla stans are already on Lemmy. Good to know.
The reason this is "garbage they do" and not just the case of a single lemmon, is that these vehicles pop up very frequently. But people like you try to paper over it and pretend it isn't a common problem, so new customers get caught out by it regularly and wonder why they've never heard of this happening before.
