Because when someone says “COME HERE” they’re making the statement that whatever you’re doing is pointless shit that can be dropped immediately.
I didn’t tolerate that with my parents, and I sure as shit wouldn’t tolerate it with a spouse. If you can’t be bothered to give me a reason to go there, don’t fucking tell me to go there.
“Hey, check this shit out!” - Fine. Implies it’s on my own time.
“Could you come in here?” - Fine. A request can be denied.
“Come here.” - I’m not your fucking dog.
A recall is a tacit admission that there is a problem, there is a fix, and it will be fixed at the manufacturer’s expense.
Tesla has claimed there is no issue, instituted teams designed solely to minimize the number of complaints about this issue, done all they can to deny that there is a problem, and ultimately is being sued for failing to actually do their damn jobs.
If you don’t understand the difference maybe you need to grow up a bit more before having an opinion.
A class action always starts with a handful of plaintiffs. It must be established first that there is grounds for a class action. In other words, you have to demonstrate that this is part of a larger problem. The first step is that small group of people. They file suit, and then it’s decided if the case should have class action status. Once the case is given class action status, all people that may have been effected are notified that they may qualify for the class action. In other words, literally 3 people in California are how a class action lawsuit gets started. If you knew anything about the legal process, you would know this.
Teslas are tested to the EPA test cycles, same as every other car in the US. They’ve been audited multiple times, and always passed.
Volkswagen vehicles were tested too. Turns out they had special programming to determine when they were being tested rather than normally driven.
Ah yes, an unverified report from a single unnamed source with 10-year-old knowledge.
All “sources” are unnamed. Welcome to journalism 101. If they’re named, they’re not “a source.” You just credit them. https://www.reuters.com/investigates/special-report/tesla-batteries-range/ Fucking Deepthroat was a “source” and he took down Nixon. It wasn’t until decades later that his actual identity was revealed. When a “source” is coming from someplace like Reuters you assume they’re legit until shown otherwise.
Also, learn to read. The actual statement is that Tesla STARTED modifying these numbers about ten years ago, not that their information is ten years old.
If the “investigative” reporter wanted to test this, they could literally just go and find a new Tesla and see what its fully-charged range says. Trivially simple. But it would show the EPA range which goes against their story, so they don’t mention it.
What part of “still uses” do you not understand? Tesla can modify the software of the car on the fly. Were you not aware of that? All they have to do is send an update to change these things. Can’t prove it? Well buddy, that’s what a lawsuit is for. Now the onus is on Tesla to prove that they aren’t doing illegal shit.
I don’t know why you have “investigative” in scare quotes other than to show how ignorant you are.
In tech (and Tesla is a tech company) it’s called L1 support.
You have clearly not read anything about this team. It’s not there to be first line support. It’s there to convince people there aren’t any issues with their cars, regardless of whether or not there is something wrong. I suggest you hang around some Tesla forums where people that have actually encountered this Diversion Team post.
They’re there solely to keep Muskypants from feeling bad about himself and his shitty product.
But sure, go on blaming people buying Teslas for being “bad with technology” when the average Tesla owner is LITERALLY A FUCKING TECHBRO.
Bootlicking is a bad habit. Drop it like I dropped your mom last Saturday.
