Check again. Last year, Consumer Reports ranked Tesla above Volkswagen, Mercedes, Jeep, and GM. New models are always unreliable and improve over time. Most of the non-Tesla EVs are now at the bottom of the list, because they are new models.

>Models from Tesla Motors, which leads the market in EV sales, continue to have issues with body hardware, steering and suspension, paint and trim and climate system. The Model 3 has average reliability, while other Telsa models – including the S, Y and X – are below average.

As I said. Fit and finish sucks on a Tesla. Right from CR.

You said they had the lowest build quality. Their best selling model is now average compared to all vehicles and the best for an EV. That's pretty impressive considering its massive ramp up in production.

As a collective score between their 4 categories, one of which is safety. I'm talking strictly fit and finish. Their build quality is not good.

FACTS yes Tesla had some build quality issues, with EARLY models. They've ironed most of it out and have great build quality now
