Well he’s talking about a hybrid. Huge difference from gas.
The only way I'd want a Ford Maverick if I could have my Maverick that I drove in High School in the 70s back. 😊
@@Shauma_llamaYes,I agree,they were better cars at that time!
There trying to save to much money by cutting quality on the vehicles😮
Mavericks are falling apart, 24' Tacoma's axles are breaking, cats and dogs are living together, mass hysteria.
Call Ghostbusters!😂😂😂
Keeping my 2016 forever I hope 😎
Lions and tigers and bears, oh my!
Content has to be made
03 f150 4.6l with 279k. 09 f150 5.4 with 130k no problems with either all orig engine and trans
I just bought a 2024 maverick, I hope mine is a good one. My 97 ranger was made in Mexico and it's alright.
I've had my 2022 Maverick for ever since Nov 2022... 0 issues so far, only 1 recall which is something to do with the bulbs for the Turn Signals. Have about 20,000 miles on it and it's been great so far. Have 4k Towing, Ecoboost motor, FX4 Package... Seems like a lot of the Mavericks that have issues are Hybrids, glad I avoided the Hybrid lol
I have the same engine and transmission in my Ford. Run AMSOIL Signature Series and you can run 8,000-9,000+ miles on a change. I just got my oil analysis back and it's running perfectly at 45,000 miles.
Got a 23 Mav hybrid, no problem at all 35000k 2 recalls, light and fuel mapping. Takes 2 hours to fix
A friend has a maverick with 80k on it now. Ecoboost engine and he loves it. No issues. There's always lemons Scotty! Even your beloved Toyotas.
The ecoboost is indestructible the hybrid is an electrical nightmare
@@jonathonvince561the eco boost in place of a v8 was good at first too.
Lol 80k miles. That fuse is getting short.
NEVER by a hybrid from ANY manufacturer!
Fords were pretty good during the years 1986 to 2000, and the ones i owned went well over 200,000 miles with no problems, but in 2001they lost the ball and have been going downhill ever since. The 2001 Windstar was an example of the downward trend in Ford's quality.
Ford can't even get the basics right anymore. It's sad.
So with Toyota. Faulty paint and rusting nails.
Corporate bean counters push these companies to cheap out on every little detail to max out profit while keeping production costs low. Everything that goes on some of these cars are about the lowest possible bid from around the world. No pride from companies (like Ford) to be able to claim their vehicles will last for 150+ k miles. None of them really make that claim but it would be refreshing to have one do it.
They have sucked for years.
bout the last 25 years yes.
It’s true, for a long-long time they have been going down hill. It’s also a shame, because many years ago (like 20) they were quality vehicles. I have a Ford (hybrid) that is 10 years old and 85,000 miles. Maybe I am lucky, but it is running excellent, the battery shows 94% efficiency and I am getting 45MPG. More and more I think I am the lucky exception rather then the rule. If it lasts another 15,000 miles I will be content, but they should last 150,000 miles or more without any issues. I hope Ford turns it around with their quality, time will tell.
😮 my brother bought a 90 something taco ma and was recalled for the frame, rusting out. He took it back to the dealer, he never seen it again, they told him it was unsafe for him to drive, wrote him a check for book value. He had to call someone to come pick him up to get back home.
They stole his truck and low balled him with a check
I test drove a new Taco. Not for me. I hate the way you sit in them. Doesn't work for my frame. I bought a GMC Canyon. Has 80k on it now. No issues has 2.8 diesel. 30 mpg on highway all day long. Idiots don't offer the engine this year. Typical. Don't know why. Don't care. I got mine.
@paulchapman1933 canyon diesel? That sounds like a good truck.
What is a taco?@@paulchapman1933
I would have sued them for the rest. There's no way he should have only gotten book value
Tacomas made in Mexico have a big recall now, too. Welding slag on axles that causes nuts to fall off.
Man do I hate when my nuts fall off
Wow, even cars are transitioning now 😏
Watch your language, please. Scary imagery.
Mee nuts r ... rusty.
I hate when my nuts fall off
I have 22 Maverick Hybrid and not experienced anything that one viewer
Same… almost 40,000 miles so far
Same. And I own 2 that I show in my content. Scotty reads one letter and tells everyone to not buy even though his prior reviews raved about the Mav.
He's got to make a living 😂
I'll stick to my 2003 holden Aussie ute thanks scotty. 310,000 k's and still going strong! Very few issues ever.
I wish we had more utes like Holden in Canada
So do we, they don't make them anymore.@@kfm908
Scotty, I did the same thing. I had a 22 Maverick hybrid with all kinds of problems and I sold it and purchased a Nissan frontier. I am so much happier. All the issues were disappointing scary time-consuming, and not worth the effort for the 40 miles per gallon.
The mistake you made was getting the hybrid. The 2.0 Ecoboost is the better choice and still has car like fuel economy.
How is the Frontier?
@@woodjunkjrjr2689 fantastic! I love the power and the smooth transmission. Makes the maverick feel fragile.
@@mikesawyer1336 is the second row spacious?
I'm no fan of CVTs but that Maverick hybrid combo is proven and lasts a long time. That and the Frontier is only rated at 17 city 22 highway with 4wd. You can get an F-150 that has more power and gets better mpgs.
I have a 2023 XL Hybrid Ford Maverick I received it March 4 2023. I have put 21462 miles on it more highway than city driving. I love it I have had no problems or issues with it at all. I have only had 2 recalls omit and they were download updates one was for emissions and I don’t remember what the other update was for. I couldn’t be happier with my Maverick
Steve, I have one of each version I show on my content and other than a couple of minor recalls, no problem.
Same here
I saw an ancient Datsun truck a few days ago. Still running after 30 years, or more. 😂
That's a testament to the owner of the Datsun. A Ford from that era can still be dependable too. I have a 620 pickup, one of the best looking compact trucks of the 70s.
I'm running a 98 Bonneville SE.
2016 Sedona, on the second engine and transmission here. Very reliable besides those two minor issues. 🤗
And no CVT
Coincidently I very quickly skipped lanes on the Westgate Freeway today when a Tesla pulled into mine directly in front of me - for that exact reason. Australia.
Mine is a eco boost and I’ve had it about 2 yrs and it’s going great
Glad to hear.
Nice Jay. I own a Mav AWD I show in my videos from Park City and it is great too.
@@fordmaverickmaniac we just gotta change the transmission fluid on time because I saw a CZcamsr named danieldeliverz he has a eco AWD and his tranny went out at 80k because he never did that
My 61 year old brother had a Vega and a Pinto when he was a kid. He’s been a mechanic for over 30 years.
Well the VEGA rusted in the showroom... seriously.
I had a Vega in Massachusetts. BAD in summer..orerheat.great in winter. Original skateboard.
My 2019 Silverado V6 was made in Mexico. 46000 miles and has been great!
Got a Maverick here, so far no issues. Fun Truck to drive. 4k tow package, Eco Boost.
Hey but your experience wont made Scottie video, you know made in Mexico is bad unless is Toyota. lol
So far so good 😂😂😂
Continue praying for it's good service!
Wishing you luck with it. Seriously.
It's not a truck bud. If it's not BODY ON FRAME...ITS NOT A TRUCK. it's a roller skate!
Thats why I drive a 1975 ford maverick. Been nearly two years since i got it, no recalls, no mechanical faults outside a couple parts needing replacment since they were 50 years old. Its amazing how one of Fords lowest quality offerings in the 70's completely overshadow their highest efforts today.
I own 2 that I show on my videos and am very happy. The letter he read was one guy's experience. Even Mercedes has some come off the assembly line with problems.
You mean especially a Mercedes lol... they are one of the worst examples for reliability.
@zoe7657 Good point. And those cost 2-3x the Mav.
Speaking of tailgating, I have a story for you.
I worked on a military installation. One morning 2 GI's were so close to me that I could see their faces and no headlights. A skunk popped up and my 80 Malibu clunked it twice. The poor skunk flipped up on the windshield and finally slid off. They passed me with the widows down and both heads were out of the windows. Carma.... I still laugh. 40mph was the speed limit. OOPS!
MIKEL
I had metal on metal sounds from 2022 Mavrick hybrid. Dealer did an update and the recalls . I sold it bought a v6 Lexus lol
Hi Scotty, what’s up with the 2022 and 2023 Tacoma recall on bolts falling out of the rear axle ?
Great, I just bought a 2023 Ford Maverick XLT Hybrid and already I got a recall notice for the dash lights dimming for no reason. I've been wondering why it sat on the lot for a year and a half and now I know, reputation. And I thought the first thing I had to do is protect the underbelly of the truck. Sitting on the lot for a year, there is the beginning of rust on the muffler and main frame bolts. I will say, It's the best handling vehicle I've ever driven. It handles like a sedan. She's quick and sturdy. Cheers!
Man when I got bad gas in my car I just open the windows 😂
Have a 23 maverick ecoboost Awd and love it, got nearly 13k miles already and one oil change. No issues yet and enjoying driving it to be honest. The amount of driving I do during the week in it should put it to a good test
Wifey's 2015 Honda Fit was made down yonder. She experienced no issues whatsoever. She traded it for a '21 CR-V. She loves it! The kid next door bought a '20 (or '21, maybe) Ford F-150 STX. The thing gave him plenty of problems, so he traded it for a '23 Tundra TRD. I dunno, but perhaps where Fords are built isn't necessarily the problem with them.
Attitudes and work ethic and occasionally poor car design.
Sourcing lowest quality parts...... poor engineering as well
@@The_Laid_Off_Life An older gent once told me his Canadian-built GM cars were twice the vehicles than those he'd had which were built in the USA. That's due to the quality of the parts.
Fun fact. If someone is tailgating you, just go slower. It will piss them off.🤣
yeah, it will and teach them not to tailgate eventually.🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
also, you might save someone's life by teaching them to not tailgate they won't tailgate a tesla which can Fantom brake like scotty says and they won't die like the motor cyclist did.
I've done that before and even had a sign on the back of my vehicle saying so and you know what? Apparently they didn't know how to read either. They kept doing it!,
I would suggest using that method with caution. It usually works for me, but some people are so stupid/aggressive that they will, for example, move to the shoulder and close pass rather than moving over to a lane that happens to have faster moving traffic.
You must be a new driver. I've been doing that(pissing people off) for 50 years. HAHA
@@paulchapman1933 No. I have been doing this for 40 years & will not change. HAHA
WOW amazing TY so much ,,Keep up the great work
Only one I liked was a 74 302 2dr Canadian made maverick with air power steering power brakes and it was a good one ❤
Had one also...that car with the 302 could really move!
Ya; some companies know what quality assurance is - Toyota; Honda, Japanese learned QA from the USA post WWII but The USA largely dumped it (see Deming) To a good degree USA brands after being burnt by the Japanese have gone back to it somewhat. Some German companies but largely missing elsewhere. What it means is you check the parts before you put them in and you spot check your final product - even tearing it apart weld by weld - to make sure they are built properly.
The less complex the car system is, it will last for a longer time and will need less repair. Just like manual transmission.
Only the hybrids. I love my maverick ecoboost 💪
I have had 2 2022 Mavericks both with the two liter EcoBoost haven't had many problems other than with the display being kind of glitchy. The one I've got now is the all-wheel drive with towing package got almost 30,000 mi on it with no problems I will say it definitely does search for gears too many options with the 10 speed I think. Was thinking about maybe going with the Ridgeline because of the wider bed made it a little difficult to put a full pallet of wood in the back with a forklift. Because the pallet sits on the wheel wells. Doesn't every company have lemons though??
I have seen at least 7 you tubers that had the transmission go out at 50k miles... I hope your's is fine
You shouldn’t have ANY glitches!!! Stop accepting CRAP.
Chrysler and Ford are mostly making lemons now though
Thomas, I own 2 Mavs I show in my videos and they are great. Unless you need more capability, I would not spend 10-20k more for another truck.
No
Thanks for the info
Sad to hear about these early problems.
So far my 2023 Maverick Hybrid has been great!
But the Tacoma's are made in Mexico too!! I'm confused Scotty. Are Mexican auto workers good or not?
My 23 is fantastic too. 800km for a full in winter, more than a 1000km in summer. Only doing local, almost no highway.
I knew it was a bad sign when they recalled the first batch when they screwed holes in the gas tanks on accident and sold them anyways.
Brilliant video.
My brother has a 2022 2.0l turbo and loves his. Has had no issues.
2021 Toyota Tundra with 22k miles, at the dealership now trying to find why it’s losing coolant
I find that interesting that he was having problems with his Sonic. My brother has a 2012 with a 1.4 turbo manual transmission has well over 200,000 miles and hasn't had any problems other than some regular maintenance and I have a 2014 with a 1.8 automatic and haven't had any issues with 70,000 plus miles
You have no miles......newer chevys dont have good quality...
I have a friend with one, old with a zillion miles ..hr said nothing has ever broke. I kind of hope it would because it's a crackerbox car if i have ever seen one
Twitter needs you to return Scotty!
What are your thoughts on a 2024 Land Rover Range Rover Autobiography? Just wondering your opinion of these vehicles
I drive a 2000 Jeep xj and I’ll never let this Jeep die because it’s so easy to work on and parts are reasonable, I’ll buy another Jeep jlu once I save up enough
Scotty plz review 2024 Honda Accord Hybrid Sport
My 23 Mav. Eco, AWD. Luv it, no issues.
Only heard of problems on the hybrids
@TheMichaelJacksonFactChannel Nope, got a 150,000 mile warranty.
@TheMichaelJacksonFactChannel Not a problem either. Great dealership. I get a loaner.
Love the pop ups in the upper right corner that go with what Scotty is talking about. Most of the time very funny!
I was thinking of buying a Maverick. I'm so glad I went with a 12th gen F150 instead.
We in Massachusetts dont even check to see if theres a lite out.
See it a lot here.
Or even put the lites on.
I have a 2021 Bronco Sport and I can attest to the paint chipping easily with mine as well. I had a ton of recalls to deal with, but other than those things it’s been great. I’m only concerned about that stupid belt driven oil pump they put on the 1.5L 3 cylinders. If that goes it’ll grenade the engine.
Which is best Car or Suv for family of 4 last longer won’t be issue travel on within states
My cousin bought one a couple of years ago and the transmission left him stranded on the side of the road after 32,000 miles. The service department said they didn't have the parts and didn't know when they would come in. The dealer made him a good deal on a Ranger pickup and he gets the same gas mileage as he did on the smaller Maverick.
you bring up a good point regarding brake lights, I’ve always wondered when my Toyota slows down by itself ….IE the brakes intervene by themselves or the car slows down because the car ahead is slowing down …..do the brake lights come on???
The only problem we have with our 22 Maverick is when we go to Wally world.. can’t get out of the truck before somebody comes over and says is that the new Maverick? Can’t unload the groceries before somebody comes over and says is that the new Maverick? Turn off the AC and you get 50 miles a gallon and sometimes even 60. Love this truck!!!!
All the more reason to stick with your old cars, and keep them forever.
Yes.
Yup..my mechanic drives a 2002 pontiac sunfire...
🙌🏽
First round of model years always have the most issues. A lot of Maverick owners including myself have had no problems. 🤷🏻♂️
Right there, Scotty forgot to tell this as usual…
Wife`s 2022 Maverick, not hybrid, is great other than an occasional computer issue. No paint issues or anything. I don’t like the ride, very choppy due to the short wheel base, i`ll stick with my Ram for comfort or my hot rod if i want a choppy stiff ride.
how do you like the orange peel paint texture on your Ram? I'm yet to see one that doesn't look like it was painted by a beginner.
I love my Hybrid Maverick no problems at all. Averaging 40 mpg it’s enough truck for my daily commuting needs. If I need to use a work truck for towing I just drive my f350.
Toyota Tacoma made in Mexico we call them Tacos
I have put 50k miles on my 2.0 EB maverick and it has been perfecting fine. I also paid MSRP for mine.
I only seen the maverick around a couple times it looks fine
Ford quality is non-existent. Went to make a Service Appointment today with my local Ford Dealer to address a Recall. Was told that the next available appointment is June 2024. Called around to other Ford Dealers within a 50 mile radius and told the same thing. Asked one Service Center what was going on and they freely admitted that all Ford Service Centers are overwhelmed right now because of the high number of recalls flooding Ford Service Centers. NICE!
I heard that Chrysler, specifically the Jeep Division, in one metropolitan area, is so backed up with warranty work the dealerships are outsourcing the work to independent shops.😮😅
One time after a small bender consisting of one part beer 3-4 cases - one part kamikaze shots. 40. One part days two - and one part egg sandwiches 6 - the bad gas I produced could have been implemented into a new quarter mile record even though I was driving a Vega GT wagon !! if I could have used that stuff in a nitrous like injection System records would have fallen
Got the ecoboost it's good .the hybrid is the one with issues.
I haven’t driven a ford since I had a used Taurus. That thing had problems up the wazoo! It made me wish I could get my hands on a European or Japanese supermini, like a VW Up or a Daihatsu Mira.
i bought a tacoma made in mexico and it was a terrible lemon i bought a 2023 ford maverick and have had no problems with it at all so far
Really…I know a few people that’s been the opposite. They loved the maverick but after they had to wait so long they were really disappointed.
The 2024 Mavericks are made in Russia. Quality builds all of them.
In Russia, Maverick drives you. 🇷🇺
@@hellodrjeckyl MAGA!
Could you elaborate?
The engines and transmissions are built in Japan.
The other day i saw a fairly new FORD EDGE...I think they are made in Oakville Ontario....that thing was blowing white smoke so bad i could hardly see it at times. I chuckled....yup its a ford.
Funny... yesterday I saw an Edge getting pulled onto a flatbed on the side of the Cross Bronx Expressway.... and right before that there was a Ford van broken down in the middle lane....
Definitely get in the other lane with teslas.. they’re always phantom braking. I’ve never even heard that term before but they really suck to be behind.
I worked in a catalytic converter factory about 10 years ago. Back then anyways: Ford was hands down the best, dodge was the worst. Literally no difference in a dodge catalytic converter and a no name cheap aftermarket replacement.
They are all good during the warranty period.
I live in the Charlotte, NC metro area and most of the wrecks here are caused by tailgaters. I mean, they try to climb in the back seat with you. And there is very little traffic law enforcement.
Last Ford I had was a2004 model.
Never Again!
At what temperature does electric cars batteries lose there power?
It must have been built in MeHEco right Scotty!!!
I kept getting bad gas for Philliips 66 "ONCUE". Would you believe 7-11 gas runs with problems!
My maverick has been relatively problem free as well besides the turn signal and airbag recalls. It’s a great little truck, but I am a little concerned about long term reliability.
It’s a lease that ends in January 2025 but I’m over mileage allowance and curious as to what to do…?
Hi Scotty from Saskatchewan Canada,can I safely switch from synthetic oil to conventional oil without fear of oil consumption. Daniel
Stick to synthetic no matter what…life’s hard but always stick with synthetic
synthetic oils perform way better than dino oils in many ways
unless you have an old vehicle, switching from conventional to synthetic, may burn oil
Hey Scotty, I hope you're doing awesome and heathy. So recently been looking for a mid sized truck and I would love to hear from expert like you, which is more reliable and would likely to last longer when it comes to engine wise. Which ever you recommend, i will buy. ☺️
Nissan Frontier. Underrated. Naturally aspirated v6
Bring back American Motors.............vehicles that made sense
AMC Pacer looks like a egg
I got a 24 Ecoboost. I think they worked the bugs out.
Would have liked to met your Pa.
I've got 43k on my 2022 XLT FWD 2.0 EB and still going strong. I'm getting 33 mpg highway, 2 recalls so far. I think most of the problems come from the hybrids.
Direct injection has a larger fuel system volume my 15 Chevy truck holds about a gallon of gas, that would be about 50 miles b4 you deplete what good gas you have in the lines.
My 2013 F150 3.7L V6 is a stud....daily driver....360K miles.....air still blows cold
Could the Maverick Owner take it to another Ford Dealer and ask for the diagnostic data printout from the scan tablet or arrange with a Ford Dealer Service Manager a meeting with the Ford Regional Service Representative. I did it years ago, and it worked. They fixed vehicle. lt doesn't always work out that way, but it's at least worth a try before selling or trading in the vehicle.
I had a cavalier wagon.. 4 cyl. Best little running wagon I've owned. One day I put In 12 dollars of gas in it.. had to be dirty gas.. cause it never ran good again. My mechanic and his dad couldn't fix it.
and COMMERCIALS. How do we fix that.?
Ford maverick hybrid here amazing truck, minor recalls that are as basically software updates and I’m getting 45 mpg
My Mav hybrid on my channel had the software updates and the side air bags replaced. It was no big deal.
El Fordo! My uncle, the mechanic just bought one. My Ford Taurus transmission was Hencho en Mexico and it was junk!
Tell uncle to ask any questions on my Mav videos. Glad to help him out.
That maverick had a real real weird problem with the catalytic converter glowing red.
Got a 23 , no problem with that…
Its not a problem because Scotty will show us how to fix it !!
Love to see that 😂😂😂
the bronco is also having problems
I'm years away from being able to afford a new vehicle, but I'm really leaning towards a Nissan frontier at this point. Maverick seemed cool but I just knew there would be problems with is being a new vehicle.
I got 1,500 miles on my 2024 ford maverick xlt been hearing people having problems around 300miles! Is there a car that’s worth getting that have more then 40mph and cheaper then this truck? Cause I drive around 80 miles a day for work
Too funny! Thank you!
I bought a brand new 2022 Maverick after waiting a year to get it. I wanted the hybrid and the alto blue lariat, and that's what i got.. at first it felt cheap, but it was cheap so i didn't mind, then the issues started.. it got jammed in park, and i had a brake module failure, the dealer replaced it, then it caught fire due to an electrical issue.. then ford bought it back. I really wish i bought the ecoboost, but i didn't know it was going to be an issue, the fusion hybrid's were really good vehicles.. I had two ther fords after that, all of which were bought back from the manufacturer, now i have a used Toyota, and no more issues..
NEVER buy a hybrid. It's just logic. The more complex a vehicle is the more that can go wrong, and the more expensive it will be to repair and service. Doesn't matter which brand, just buy an ICE only vehicle from a reputable brand and you can be confident you got the best value and a reliable vehicle.
@@horseathalt7308 My wife has a rav4 hybrid, it's been 100% rock solid, as was the 340k mile prius it replaced..
@@rustbeltrobclassic2512 Yes maybe so, but you paid a high premium for that version over the ICE only version so even with the little extra MPGs in that model it will take decades or more to make up the difference paid to buy it. You got lucky, most people don't get that fortunate even with Toyota, and their quality too has been quickly decreasing since the cophonyvirus came along. No car brand is immune from the decline in quality.
@@horseathalt7308 No question, the quality has reduced in the parts quality, the interior likely won't wear well..
@@rustbeltrobclassic2512 The disgusting thing is it almost seems totally coordinated by group consensus across ALL manufacturers, you see the same thing with large appliances, clothing, seems just about every consumer good is being calculated with planned obsolescence in mind. It is sinister if you ask me. But then again look at theGl0b@l!sts like the WEF and what they plan for the entire world to look like.
15 minute cities, highly controlledPoliceStates, with very limitedFreedom for the masses of people. It is disturbing.
Teslas brake lights should turn on with the regeneration brakes. They only come on when they tap the brakes right before a complete stop.
Had a 76 maverick with a 302c.i. engine
I got a 21 camry xse and I hade it for about 6 months now I have Cpo warranty with I hade the alternator replce at 38 000 miles and batt. Otherwise it a good car looks good with the black roof and red paint
I have a 2022 ford Maverick hybrid. So far, it’s been good to me but only has 20k miles. Fuel economy is great, but I have had a coolant leak, the 6 recalls have gotten annoying, but it’s a good car. I’m not completely sold on the Atkinson engine yet. It’s noisy, makes weird noises, etc.
It’s a shame bc it is a fantastic idea. It’s great for how I use it, but this isn’t a car I’ll keep past warranty. Lucky, the values hold high so I have a second one on order (ecoboost this time) and will still fetch nearly MSRP for my old one after 2 years.
I’ve heard the 2023s and upwards are far more reliable from the forums etc. really only the very very early 2022s have had these issues and it seems ford knew and pumped them out the factory still.
I just noticed a tesla I was behind slowing up with no brake lights on. Had no clue what was happening. It was almost like when a motorcycle slows down from downshifting, no warning for anyone behind.
Most ev's can turn the electric motor into a generator and use the friction to slow down, It's called regenerative braking. The car will do this automatically and it usually doesn't activate the brake light. It's certainly a safety hazard with how quickly the regen can slow the vehicle down without warning to everyone else that it is doing so.
If Ford had built the motors for the Chevy Vega, the Vegas that weren't rusty would now be collector cars. Vegas were nice looking small cars. You'd probably be able to buy reproduction body parts for your Vega.
Most EVs with single pedal driving modes do not turn on the brake lights until they come to a complete stop. This is a huge regulation oversight.
One thing Tesla does get right and has since at least the late 2010s
Is that true? Sounds fishy
That's not true
