A few days ago, a man from Finland had just blown up his Model S, and inside sat an Elon Musk doll. With €20,000 to repair the breakdown, Tesla owner Tuomas Katainen decided to record a video of himself detonating the Tesla Model S to show his disgust at the quality of his car and Tesla's poor service.
The video shows That Katainen's car started to have a lot of problems, and in the end, he was forced to tow it to the nearest Tesla dealership, which flashed many error codes on its dashboard. After waiting a month for feedback, Tesla told Catenin that it would have to replace the battery pack for 20,000 euros (143758 yuan). The Model S, which Catenin has been driving for eight years, is long overdue, meaning the high cost will be borne entirely by him.
Instead of continuing the repairs, Katainen decided to blow up his Model S with 60 pounds of explosives. To show his disgust for Tesla CEO Elon Musk, a doll imitating him was placed in the car before the fireworks began. The Tesla Model S after the explosion has run out. Tesla's repair costs remain high, and because of the brand's closed ecosystem, it is difficult for third-party companies to provide more cost-effective repair services.
Consumers around the world continue to complain about the quality of Tesla's cars, which Tesla has promised to address for years. In September, a preliminary quality study by J.D. Power said Tesla was well below average.
