Tesla have only been making an entire car for a few years, and they've only made a few tens of thousands of them.<p>Anyone who buys one has to reasonably expect a few teething problems here and there. Early adopters of Version 1.0, etc.<p>What matters is how Telsa deals with these problems, and if customer satisfaction is severely impacted. From all reports, they're doing a good job and owners are not yet unhappy.<p>I see absolutely no problem here, and nothing to worry about. They're obviously learning and growing, and things will improve as time goes on.
I misinterpreted the title. I read it like:
"Consumer Reports: Tesla Model S has more than its share of problems"
I didn't see the apostrophe and that changes the meaning from what I initially thought.<p>>Bear in mind that the experiences with our test cars are purely anecdotal and never factor into our reliability ratings. After all, it's a sample size of one.
Tesla has had some serious drive-train problems [1] (which it appears Consumer Reports did not experience) but they seem to have fixed the problem [2].<p>1) <a href="http://www.edmunds.com/tesla/model-s/2013/long-term-road-test/2013-tesla-model-s-drive-unit-iv-the-milling.html" rel="nofollow">http://www.edmunds.com/tesla/model-s/2013/long-term-road-tes...</a><p>2) <a href="http://transportevolved.com/2014/08/11/tesla-model-s-drivetrain-woes-50-cent-fix-will-take-drivetrain-replacement/" rel="nofollow">http://transportevolved.com/2014/08/11/tesla-model-s-drivetr...</a>
