Reply to comment by Tiggywiggler in Tesla recalls over 80,000 China-made, imported cars due to software, seat belt issues by 1000xcoins
Ford just recalled 634,000 vehicles worldwide for cracking fuel injectors that can cause fires. And your point is what again?

I wouldn’t buy a ford either…
This being said, the stat you want to look at is how many recalls as a percentage of all cars built. Tesla’s build quality has been on the shit end of the stick for a very long time.

Could you provide me a link to a source for those stats please?

Sorry, the dppm (defects parts per million) is for parts…this ranking is based on defects per 100 cars, so it’s easy to have multiple defects per car or scores in the multiple hundreds.
Tesla and other startups for years weren’t on the study(iirc, I am older unit with an older memory chip damaged by a very full life!)…but in 2021 Tesla was 30 out of 33 OEM’s.
Love them or hate them JDPower is a known force in the car world…and before all the Musk fanbois come in here trying to save Elons ego from any more shame…Tesla was known in the industry for having a very connected team of 3 who pulled a few stories from major leading sites/publications early on…in other words, they are the media darling…Jalopnik practically had his lips stapled to musks ass for a decade at least.
So if any market data was manipulated…it would have been to take him from a west score to the 30 he finally placed at…
Ps…I am of the mindset that anyone can be bought…I treat JDPower in the automotive space like I treat Gartners in the IT space….great to get an high level idea as to what a “thing” compares to other “things”…but the details might be skewed depending on who you pay off…this being said, you won’t get into the magic quadrant by bribes alone and the bribe can only move the needle so far.
Also, just re-read the article and yes…this was Tesla first year…Fisker, Aptera, Rivian, etc are not there.

Ford recalls / Ford cars
Same thing with Tesla.
Ford made ~15 mil cars last year and Tesla ~ 1mil. You are free to google recall numbers

Not OP but I'd personally say Volvo, Mercedes, Hyundai, BMW, Honda.

What do you guys think about Nissan? I have a Rogue from 2015 that has been a dream so far at 100k miles. Very reliable, but I am just one data point.

lol Hyundai is recalling hundreds of thousands of cars too. It's just part of being a car maker.

Hyundai cheaped out on security systems plus the lovely theta 2 engines.

… that he's never buying a Tesla? And that he wasn't aware that meant the only other vehicle option in the world is Ford?

Also I would not buy a Ford even if they had no recalls, from what I've heard from friends and family they suck ass.
