Best quote:

In a factory line, when dealing with cars, you only have 15 seconds to install this bolt (for example). The next technician only has 2 minutes to install the windshield. If the lean in 'lean manufacturing' becomes too lean, employees are rushed. They have no choice but to let go and move to the next incoming car

That could be one of the reasons why some Teslas are delivered with missing bolts and nuts. There wasn't enough time to do all the fasteners so the car simply migrate down the line without them and get delivery that way. 

Tesla is basically sacrificing customers' safety for the sake of meeting the CEO's performance target for his awards. mail

Many levels worse than cheating on emission. 

Yeah. So horrible. This is why other makers have stopped using assembly lines decades ago. It is just mean and nasty to put cars together quickly with an eye to profit only.  In fact if you kill the owner they can’t buy cars from the competition. Lol. 
Please do tell us all the other reasons you can think of for them missing nuts and bolts. 
Did I mention that I have spent thousands of dollars trying to fix coolant leak issues which every single water cooled Mezger engine will encounter at the 10 year mark?  Several times already. 
I think one of your concerns may be his ‘awards’. Personally I can’t think of a better leader and person dedicated to safety and even this planet. If you are trying to tell us he is an evil money hoarder  - good luck with that. I guess everyone is evil if the press want it that way.  (I can just cut and paste my defense of Trump or Musk,  very similar in terms of shit show.  Yet it is easy to be on the correct side of both arguments.
