It's also worth noting without Tesla there would be almost no electric car market. The occasional Leaf is about as common as a Ferrari.
It's also worth noting that Tesla is the first American car manufacturer to bring a vehicle to mass production in almost a century. The only other American company to come close would be DeLorean, who failed after two or three model years and less than 10,000 chassis I think. The previous one was Chrysler.
Honestly, under-warranty misaligned panels and air conditioning complaints are not signs that the company is bad. They are signs that those with an interest in keeping us burning their oil are stooping to any low to kick up dirt on the company responsible for bringing electric cars to mass market appeal. My children smile and point in delight at every Tesla the see, like I used to do in the 1980 at Porches.
