I SOLD MY TESLA MODEL Y AFTER 2 YEARS | HERE'S WHY

EV Channels Review

The reviewer details their experience selling a 2020 Tesla Model Y after two years of ownership. While expressing overall love for the Model Y's practicality, technology, and performance, the review highlights significant issues encountered with this specific early-production unit. These included numerous factory defects such as paint imperfections, misaligned trim, and sensor malfunctions, necessitating multiple service appointments. The vehicle also suffered two accidents and a costly out-of-warranty repair to the drive unit, partly attributed to aftermarket suspension. Despite these challenges and a $7,000 investment in Full Self-Driving, the reviewer was surprised by a strong resale offer, indicating robust market demand for Teslas. Ultimately, the reviewer concludes that while this particular car was problematic, the Model Y remains a favorite, and they are anticipating delivery of a new 2022 model with hopes for improved build quality.
