Roof blows off new Tesla Model Y

Build quality is not the be-all, end-all of measurements in deciding the “best” car. This is a really common viewpoint among Tesla owners. We have our gripes, but those gripes are overshadowed by other things like the infotainment, acceleration, software, etc.

Also matters what build quality people are referring to. I know there have been plenty of people complaining online. Now a roof flies off of a Model Y and that’s terrible. But I’m not sure why all the other recalls don’t get as much coverage and this Model Y. I mean Volvo just had a recall for the Polestar for a problem that would cause total power loss. I understand Tesla is the hotness to hate and love.

I mean we're talking about a car that literally has the risk of its roof blowing off. How can that NOT be the end-all-be-all?

Model 3 != Model Y

And other cars have had worse defects, (SUV rollovers, wiring fires, etc)
