The Aluminum panels shatter into jagged shards in an impact.
There have been several incidents in which the entire rear suspension fell off the car while it was in motion.

Experienced for the first time the other day zero braking effect. The car was cold had been the work day without recharging and had zero regen. Come down a hill in 40-50 against a roundabout pressed into brake a little, some resistance in 2-3 cm so just shook pedal and went completely to bottom. Got little freaked and tried pump but still went straight to the bottom 2-3 times. As there was no other option than to gander at to avoid bonustap. Jaggu important routine check that things work.

I also experienced 2-3S almost no brakes on both previous Tesla, as well as new Tesla with electromechanical booster HOLY CARP!. It then occurred after the vehicle has been washed.
