What are the minor issues with Tesla?
2 Answers
Tesla has a minor issue with brake failure. The specific situations and causes of Tesla's brake failure are as follows: Main situations with Tesla: Tesla is an American electric vehicle and energy company, founded by Martin Eberhard and Marc Tarpenning in Silicon Valley, USA, primarily engaged in the production and sales of electric vehicles, solar panels, and energy storage equipment. Main causes of brake failure: The reason for Tesla's brake failure is a problem with the matching between the kinetic energy recovery system and the brake system. During driving, when the driver presses the brake pedal, the input rod generates displacement. The pedal travel sensor detects the displacement of the input rod and sends this displacement signal to the electronic control unit. The electronic control unit calculates the torque that the motor should generate, and the transmission device converts the torque into servo braking force. The servo braking force and the input force from the pedal jointly act in the tandem brake master cylinder to convert into brake fluid pressure.
I've been driving a Tesla Model 3 for almost two years now, and overall I'm quite satisfied, though some minor issues are annoying. Panel gap problems are quite common, and the doors don't close with a uniform sound—you have to inspect the details carefully right after buying the car. There are also quite a few software bugs; the central control screen occasionally freezes and requires a manual reboot, while waiting for OTA updates is too slow. The wiper controls are on the touchscreen, which can be distracting and chaotic during rain—not very user-friendly. The interior has a strong plastic feel, especially when it gets scorching hot in summer, making long drives quite uncomfortable. These issues aren’t deal-breakers, but for drivers who value refinement, I hope Tesla puts more effort into quality control. Regular maintenance checks could help reduce these frustrations.
