Not really upset, but kinda put off and disappointed.

I really like my Tesla Model 3, but my wife wants me to get rid of it.

Picked up the car on Feb 3rd - 7,900 KMs later... the stories about the built quality are true...

My rear trunk speaker went in May (mobile service appointment took care of it)

My front passenger TPMS just stopped working last week(this I have to bring the Tesla into a service center, booked for next Monday)

And yesterday... my rear passenger door refused to open (you can hear the latch open, the window will drop, but for the life of me, the door just wouldnt open)... a Google search shows that it is a common issue WTF? Trim will separate from the door and it will get caught in the mechanism... (so I added that into the service appointment Monday)...

Sure... everything is free and under warranty... but holy ****, I don't remember the last time any cars (new or used) gave me so many weird issues.... yes, all my cars before has been JDM, but WTF is this crap... its less than 8,000KM, that's less than our first service interval... and shit keeps on breaking.....

No way I am keeping this beyond warranty, Wife wants out now... that's too bad... I was juggling the idea of getting into the Y Performance eventually, but judging from le wife... don't think we will get another Tesla....

sorry just wanted to rant... the car is AWESOME when it works....
