Andrew Lundeen, of Santa Rosa, California, was driving his wife’s 2018 Model 3 in August when he rode over a speed bump and lost power steering.
Lundeen said in an interview that a Tesla service manager told him that a power-steering connector had corroded. The manager said the likely cause was a car wash, which he described as a known problem.
Lundeen paid $4,400 to replace the steering rack and a wiring harness.
“This is the only car that I’ve ever heard of where a car wash can damage the wiring,” Lundeen recalled telling the manager.
Lundeen said he was so shocked by the manager’s frank explanation of Tesla’s part failures that he wrote it down: “All I can tell you,” the Tesla manager said, “is we’re not a 100-year-old company like GM and Ford. We haven’t worked all the bugs out yet.”
E non si parla di qualita’ di materiali, ma semplicamente di qualita’ di assemblaggio e parti. Stanno facendo passare roba che QA avrebbe fermato in un plant Fiat negli anni 90.
Musk said his AI, in contrast, would be “a maximum truth-seeking AI,” even if that meant offending people.
So far, however, the people most offended by Grok’s answers seem to be the people who were counting on it to readily disparage minorities, vaccines and President Biden.
