There is no shortage of interesting topics in the automotive industry. Some former Volkswagen executives said that range-extended hybrid cars are not the direction of development, but they were slapped in the face by the high sales of the ideal ONE. After That, Li Bin of Weilai Automobile said that he could not understand why there were still people using oil trucks, whether it was because he liked the smell of gasoline and was madly intimidated.
Recently, a similar thing has happened in the United States.
On Dec. 26, Mike Levine, Ford's director of north American product communications, posted a post on his social media accounts. A Tesla Model Y owner living in Canada shared an article saying that various problems occurred within 4 days of receiving the car.
Tesla Model Y owners pointed out that after the delivery of the new car, there was a clattering sound in the rear seats, and there were problems with heating devices and leaking glove boxes. When the article was shared by Mike Levine, director of north American product communications, what was unexpected was that Tesla fans collectively protested.
Many Tesla owners wrote to Mike Levine saying that Ford also had many of its own quality problems and asked them to solve them with their own products first.
One author wrote that after waiting 512 days for the Ford Mustang to mention the car, the engine made an unusual noise. Another author noted that his F-150 pickup engine was overheating and his mother's Lincoln car was scrapped under warranty.
Another author points to Ford's way of selling. He stressed that Ford was cheap, but complained that the popular Ford Mustang Mach-E car was $20,000 higher on the grounds that it was "out of stock."
Many car owners, including Tesla fans, have sent Mike Levin news of a series of recalls that Ford has been making. Mike Levin did not respond to these social media protests.
Meanwhile, Mike Levin shared an article pointing to Tesla's FSD features and rising prices for solar roof panels.
In fact, as a car owner, sharing some of your experience on the Internet would have been no problem. But executives of competing companies stand up and forward and share, which makes it smell bad. For example, this time, Ford executives forwarded a faulty post shared by Tesla owners online. Because Ford's new energy vehicle sales are not as high as Tesla's, Ford executives have some feeling of "not eating grapes and saying grapes are sour". And Tesla's fan stickiness is particularly high. This gave the group the opportunity to "attack" Ford executives.
In fact, any car, it is difficult to say that there is no problem in the process of use. Whether it is Tesla or Ford, it is normal to have problems in the process of use. Whether it is a business executive or a user, it is good to face it calmly.
