I have a 2019 Model 3, and it has some paint issues, specifically in the door hinge areas. It had some suspension issues which were repaired in half a day, under warranty. It has an issue where the windshield in front of the self driving cameras gets obscured with some gunk, blocking the cameras (it continues self driving even when half blind). The steering wheel material is falling apart. Other than that, for the pa…

My Model Y has been more reliable than the two Highlanders I had before.
You can see this skew quite easily on these reports by looking for VW AG cars that are generally identical, and comparing their rankings, like Audi A1, VW Polo, Seat Ibiza and Skoda Fabia.
(note that this isn’t really to defend Teslas, which are clearly behind on this metric in Germany for some reason. Just; the reason could be “their service is overpriced and nobody wants to take the car in” rather than “the car is junk.”)
Funny enough, my 2007 BMW had so many issues and cost so much to maintain i used to call it a “wallet burning machine”

Just because you haven't personally encountered a serious defect doesn't mean there's no problem with it at all.
Here are the key points one can have after using some scripts to load the content: * Tesla Model Y ranked most unreliable among nearly new cars, with 17.3% serious defect rate. * TÜV report found rising major defects, particularly in electric vehicles like Tesla’s Model 3 and Y. * European brands, especially Mercedes and Volkswagen, dominated reliability rankings across all age groups.
Are you sure about that third point? Going to the graph they link, Volkswagen ranks near dead last: https://www.autoblog.com/features/predicted-car-reliability
