FDM warns of errors in several models from Tesla, and FDM has now been successful by the Danish Road Safety Authority. FDM has previously described that there are several cases of significant veil in the rear suspension and in the steering column of the popular Model 3.

The Danish Road Safety Authority has stated that the motorists' interest organization, FDM, rightly did not approve two Tesla Model 3 by sight after the car owners had independently complained about the demand for omsyn.

FDM said in a statement.

In both cases, the sight results were due to "too much veil in bushings in rear-wheel suspension".

However, Tesla found no faults and thought the electric cars should have been approved, which led to complaints and the Traffic Agency's review. Many Teslas have "veil in the bushing"

The agency concludes that the cars had a significant veil and that the vision had been carried out correctly in both cases.

Earlier in the year, the FDM warned that there are many Teslas that have veils in bushings in the rear-wheel suspension and in the steering column. See also FDM comes with call for Tesla owners

Veils in rear suspensions mean that there is a looseness or abnormal movement in the parts that connect the car's rear wheel to the car itself.

This applies to both the Model 3 and Model Y. According to FDM, around 37,000 Model 3 and more than 40,000 Model Y have been registered in Denmark. The error is seen on newer cars

Usually you first see the problem on older cars, which have driven many kilometers, but FDM has seen several models with the error early in the life expectancy of the cars.

It creates doubts about the safety of cars, writes FDM, who has contacted Tesla to get the company to solve the problems. See also Tesla gets fined for flawed marketing

"We expect Tesla to help drivers, as it is not fair that the consumer has an additional cost of repair and possibly overhaul, because the car has a fault it shouldn't have," said Lone Otto, area manager in FDM's technical advice.

At the beginning of the year, FDM said that almost one in four Model 3 from the year 2020, which last year was for inspection, failed - among other things because of veils.

For other electric cars, the dump percentage was nine.

The main motorist interest group in Denmark strongly suggest people who own a Tesla model 3 or model Y have their cars safety checked before warranty expires.

Loosely translated:
Among the problems are play in the steering wheel, and bad suspension.

These problems are normally only seen on way older cars with heavy mileage. These problems are worrying because these parts impact the safety of the car.

Tesla however is claiming if the play is within the limits of the service manual, they will not have an impact on safety. "We design our vehicles so they exceed safety regulations." literal translation!
/translation summary

Lately newer cars from Tesla have failed 25-30% legally mandatory inspections, and Tesla is spewing bullshit about it!
It's not up to Tesla to decide safety standards. and failing to such high degrees right after warranty, is definitely not exceeding safety standards!

I'm stressing the European parts, because my post from yesterday about Russian losses in Ukraine war was removed as "off topic".

Merz pointed out that the restrictions have been lifted not only on German weapons.

"There are no longer any restrictions on the range of weapons delivered to Ukraine, neither by the UK, France, nor us. There are no restrictions by the US either,"

Putin is getting more and more desperate. As he is running out of options, he is just increasing the meat waves!

BYD batteries are designed to last for 3000 to 5000 charge cycles

If a car has 400 km range on a charge and can handle 3000 cycles, that's 1.2 million kilometers.
While we don't know for sure, there has been nothing to indicate BYD should have compromised on that.

In Denmark when a car reaches 6 years, it needs to be safety checked to be used on the roads. After that it's every 2nd years.

Tesla model 3 managed these safety checks extremely poorly, with 3 times the average failure rate.

In total, 1,392 errors were found on the Tesla model, which is three times as many compared to the other electric cars.
