Well, and becuse they don't have a dealership in every city. You can get a ford serviced anywhere and they have a waiting room for you to wait if needed. Even in rural areas, a very small percentage of the country is not going to be close to a dealer.

if your driving a newer car, theyll handle warrenty work, recalls, service packages that your car came with.

Everyone is having parts Problems, it's the scaling that Tesla still needs to do.

Tesla's wait times are because every part that sits on a shelf for warranty/service/accident repairs is a part that can't go on a vehicle coming off the assembly line, and we all know that Tesla / Elon has a raging hard on for "deliveries, deliveries, deliveries".

"Because they're scaling up". They've been making vehicles for 14 years, how much more time do they get to realize they should have a parts network?

The Soviet Union's automotive industry operated in this exact manner. It's why, when by some miracle you got your hands on a car, sourcing replacement parts was nigh-impossible.

It took them ~60 years, give or take.
