Tesla make decent enough cars, good enough even for a lot of people. If only they spend a little more time on each car to make sure they are build right instead of just pushing them out the door for no other reason than to meet Elon's stupid target, in order to prop up the stock price to hit his CEO compensation package's 'milestones'.

There are millions of cars with panoramic sunroofs on the road right now, not a single car had their glass roof blown off like that. Hundreds of millions of cars on the road, how many came from the factory missing a bolt or 2 on their suspension? Rear bumpers falling off for no reason other than someone forgot to bolt them down? Seriously, these are basic basic quality control stuff. Not even the Chinese can build them that badly. 

Tesla cars are the default choice for people buying EVs. People first look at the 4 offerings from Tesla when they consider a EV. They set the standard. For some that want a cheaper car than a Model 3 or have no use for extra range, they go with Japanese, Korean offerings. Or even the Bolt. For people wanting a SUV that does not look like a minivan, they pick a I-Pace or a e-Tron with nicer interiors, Mercedes have one of those crossovers too. Taycans are for those that want a more luxury EV or a faster EV. Some people avoid Tesla simply for the reason of build quality or safety. If Elon would just make them right, they would have a bit more cars sold each quarter, simple as that.
