Boycott US
Overview:
The community dedicated to boycotting the US until they stop fascism, restore full democracy and start following international law.
Americans have a moral obligation to resist Donald Trump and project 2025 at every turn.
America is a flawed democracy currently being ruled by oligarchs. Stop the backslide! Dont let America become the next Hungary.
America needs to challenge the court rulings of citizens united v. fec and shelby county v. holder, protect the media, implement independent district drawing, and the single transferable vote so they don't end up having people stay home in life-changing elections because they cannot vote for their favourite candidate.

My "fear" with the Tesla system is customer service after the sale. Usually a local dealer will have to consider repeat sale and after-market service and repair. Building a good customer relation is key to that. Alternative is am anonymous underpaid call center "drone" in another country or dead email drops that never gets answered. Or worse some kind of AI chat feature on a glossy professional web page.
My issue with all electric cars is the development rate and the risk of platforms not being supported for an extended time. How long will software be serviced? Right now I do not dare own an electric car older than five years as there are so many bugs due to rushed development
Shitty dealerships thrive, what are you talking about? They don't give a fuck about customer relationship, they just say that in their radio commercials.
Local dealers dont give a fuck about repeat sales. They are a monopoly. Many own several dealerships in the region, so even going to the next town... congrats, you just bought from the same person.
And customer service? Lmfao. They just do the bare minimum. God fordbid you try to get a warranty fix. They'll do everything to avoid fixing the problem.
and dealerships change hands every [x] years so they really don't care about repeat sales. new name on the big sign at the auto mall every five years out here
The US has laws saying vehicle manufacturers have to produce parts to service the cars for x number of years, or something like that. We just put in some new law that covers EVs similarly.
