This is a most excellent place for technology news and articles.
I wanted a Tesla, until about seven or eight years ago when they switched off features after some dude bought his Tesla used, because only the original owner had paid for the features.
I knew this is what it would turn into. Fuck Tesla, and fuck Musk.
The only cases I've heard that fit this, is some of the old model S where "free supercharging" got removed from vehicles that were resold through Tesla.
Do you have a link to cases where functionality actually got removed from vehicles sold privately directly? I wouldn't be surprised if it happened, I just haven't heard of any.
Tesla is already a failing company. This will only accelerate their decline.
LOL who are these idiots buying their crappy cars? You only have yourselves to blame. Elon is just playing you like a fiddle.
I have Autopilot on mine (2020). I've asked them at the shop to remove it and reinstall basic cruise control and they refused, and I'm jealous. Autopilot suuuucks. I went on a 1200 mile road trip through North Texas. The whole time the car thought the speed limit was 55 when it was actually 75, and it refused to go any faster, so I had to drive for hours with no cruise control. It sucked.
The people who went to business school and make sure everything is priced as high as possible.
Fuck Tesla and any/every other automaker for switching to subscription-based anything for features. As if the fuckstick hasn't already raped people on price enough as it is. The board is completely lost and a bunch of idiots to keep fumbling over Lord Elon's decisions.
They rolled this update out mid-journey, and I had to scramble to swap seats with the manequin driver. Not cool, Elon.
Not. Cool.
I think this could be legally interesting (I'm no expert), because with the different kind of contract the lessor's duties change. Especially regarding bugs or mistakes of the vehicle.
Well that should cut down on the deaths and the lawsuits from those deaths at least.
