Im saying it affects Tesla the company because they appear to do little or no testing. Not their batteries. Assuming you can get whatever theyre connected to turn on of course.

When your EVs charging lid latch will freeze over in an winter storm for anywhere except California and Texas thats not great.

Maybe you don't know how ice works, but Tesla isn't the only EV where the charging lid latch can freeze over. If you have a car outside when there is a bunch of sleet/freezing rain/snow/ice/etc., door handles can freeze over, trunk lids can freeze over, windshields can freeze over, etc. During the Texas freeze last year, I had a solid block of ice around the front bumper area of my car.

As to the model year I again point out that Tesla knowing precisely what that information decided to replace his car to figure out the defect. Bottom line when you later multiple critical failures for the recharging system like this in what is a life threathening storm people are in danger.

They didn't replace his car. They gave him a Model 3 as a loaner while they looked at his Model S. Again, you should actually read what you're posting.

Now if you insist on pretending Im criticizing their batteries dont bother. Im criticizing the company and the blind eye they cast on eliminating serious flaws with their cars that endanger everyone on the road.

You've repeatedly posted ITT about a Tesla not charging in extreme cold, then proceeded to ignore any comments about the lack of preconditioning happening in that example just to continue to bring that example up as if Tesla is the only EV manufacturer with that problem. You also ignored a real-world anecdote about a Chevy Bolt having a similar problem.
