A software update could make the rule that the accelerator being pressed all the way down for more than, say, half a second is probably an unintended input that should be ignored. Boom, problem solved.
That is almost as terrible an idea as whatever Musk is gonna shit out.

No, this absolutely does not solve the problem. The solution is recall and redesign the pedals.

Now hold up

Cybertrucks can't stand sunlight. They can't stand running water. Salt will fuck them up because they're uncoated stainless steel.

Are we sure they aren't just vampires?

Vampires are more water resistant than a Cybertrunk, for instance they don't have a problem with a rainy day while the Cybertruck does.

Finally saw one of these in person today.

It's definitely ugly, but probably not even the ugliest vehicle on the market rn (Looking at you BMW XM) and it's certainly eye catching.

It's also massive. Granted I drive a tiny crossover, but it's an absolute behemoth of a vehicle. Goobers who drive pavement queen F-350's have some competition.

Which is why that nook in the floor is engineered to PERFECTION to fit the pedal as it slides up and locks into full acceleration.

Why would you even make a nook for the pedal to go into? That is just asking for this kind of crap to happen!

The lego quote is kinda funny, because the fact that things like that are cheap to produce (and cheap write off if you get a bad batch) is a big part of why its so easy to ensure the pieces shipped to customers will be to standard.

Nevermind that Elon is totally the type of boss to tell someone to just use faulty parts and keep the line going instead of shutting down production for days or weeks while waiting for replacements.

You just don't understand perfect engineering.

Still even if perfectly engineered with operators pushing on it from inconsistent angles eventually the perfection will be compromised causing binding or inability to fit into said recess. Better to have wiggle room or open space to prevent this, or possible scissor effects/odd debris finding its way into said area causing issues as well.

It also makes it harder to clean the area to help prevent said issues.

Most Accelerators are a "Single Part".

Nothing to fall off or fly off.

They've sold a lot of cars. Really as simple as that

https://hedgescompany.com/automotive-market-research-statistics/auto-mailing-lists-and-marketing/

Not nearly as many as you would think.

Since Tesla's existence, only ~827,000 Tesla Vehicles are registered with the US as of January 1, 2021.

Percentage of Tesla cars in the US, registered, owned and driven in California (through January 1, 2021) 46%

So nearly half of the the 827,000 Tesla's are registered in California.

Tesla was created in 2003, has been selling cars since 2008 with it's Roadster & Model S.

There are stories of Tesla selling "New Cars", that are clearly Pre-Owned cars.
https://www.reddit.com/r/TeslaModel3/comments/18lin32/tesla_sold_me_a_preowned_car_as_new/?rdt=60070

If you average everything out, Tesla only sells ~ 63,615.38 cars per year.

Not exactly "High Volume", even compared to other luxury brands.

If you have a better / more accurate & up to date source.

Please show your work.

https://explodingtopics.com/blog/electric-vehicles-stats
by Josh Howarth = November 23, 2023

There are currently 2,442,270 electric vehicles registered in the United States.
Tesla has a 56.5% market share for EVs sold in the United States.

Tesla has ~= 1,379,882.55 EV's registered as of Nov 23, 2023.

Not that far from the 827,000 EV's registered in Jan 1, 2021.

Data for 2020-2024 is readily available and youve seen it several times.

You start your story in 2003, then stop at 2020 before exponential growth.

Its the only way you can cherry pick your math into getting some weird 60,000 cars per year figure for a company that currently sells millions of cars per year.

If they sell "Millions of cars per year".
Why is there only ~= 1,379,883 Tesla EV's registered in the US as of November 23, 2023?

Surely, there would be more Tesla's registered in the US Vehicle registration database if they sold "Millions" per year.

Because locations outside of the US exist and Tesla sells cars there too.

I know, Tesla has a 56.5% market share for EVs sold in the United States.
That's about how many "Tesla vehicles" are registered in the US.

It's not about Good/Bad, it's about reality.
