Well Tesla owners are told that their cars need zero maintenance so why would they even think about having them inspected routinely?

No they're not. There's a very clear 2 year maintenance cycle.

They're told their cars need zero maintenance in the same way that Toyota owners who get their information from the internet think their cars have magically been engineered to defy the laws of physics.

Sure the fine print in the manual says there's a service schedule, but the pop culture trope says otherwise.
