Tesla is recalling over 475,000 of its vehicles because of a pair of safety issues. According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, 356,309 Tesla Model 3s covering model years 2017-2020 are being recalled due to problems with the rearview cameras. The 2017-2020 Model S is the other target with 119,009 of those BEVs due to a problem with the front hood latch.

One recall after another.

What is a frunk latch?
Try looking up TSB's and recalls on other products. Like Chrysler or Hyundai.

That's a good way to get shocked.

Why are we hoping bad things happen to a great American car company?

Because like you they can't put partisan bullshit aside.

No other car manufacturer has been subsidized like Tesla has in the U.S.

Wrong! Tesla is getting the least.

Did Elon Musk really steal money from the American tax payer while telling Americans he doesn't think they deserve a bailout? Nah. Let's dive into this.

Other countries subsidize their cars far more than we do.

Who cares? It isn't us paying for it. It's just another corporate welfare program, mostly benefiting wealthy hobbyists, which is why we see so many so-called 'conservatives' here sniveling about the OP.

So what kind of Federal subsidies were those models getting?

Earth to Dudley: Federal tax credits are over for the purchase of Tesla.
As for the rest, you've been chronically misinformed ...

1.) One of the most prominent subsidies Tesla has ever gotten was a $465 million Advanced Technology Vehicles Manufacturing (ATVM) loan.​

The ATVM loan program was specifically created to try to incentive development of zero-emission vehicles. A couple of legacy automakers (Ford and Nissan) got loans, and a couple of EV startups (Tesla and Fisker Automotive) got loans. Several other EV startups didn’t qualify for loans.​

​

Ford has never repaid its loan. Nissan repaid its loan in 2017. Tesla repaid its loan in 2013, 9 years early. Fisker defaulted and went bankrupt.​

​

Ford’s loan was for $5.937 billion. Nissan’s was $1.448 billion. Tesla’s was $0.465 billion. Fisker’s was $0.529 billion. (Also, note that the US federal government spent $50.35 billion bailing out GM around that time, and $17.6 billion bailing out Fiat-Chrysler.)​

​

So, tell me, which of these companies — all trying or supposedly trying to advance zero-emission electric vehicles — grubbed public money and which one actually fulfilled the mission of the program while also paying pack the loan super early?​
