I found this part very interesting:

In the case of the Model S’s suspension, Tesla took care of repairs for some customers who complained to the company, on the condition that they agreed in writing not to talk about the issue or how Tesla dealt with it. The agreements, however, stirred up discussion on online bulletin boards.

Dailykanban.com, an auto industry blog, posted excerpts from what it said was an agreement. It said, in part: “You agree to keep confidential our provision of the Goodwill, the terms of this agreement and the incidents or claims leading or related to our provision of the Goodwill.” “Goodwill” is the term Tesla used to refer to any repairs or compensation it made because of a suspension failure.

The agreement posted on the blog released Tesla from any liability and barred the car owners from filing legal proceedings against the company.

More and more I get the sense that Musk is in firm control of everything I read about his companies.
