I’m hiking across Ontario. It will never stop baffling me seeing the most rural houses imaginable, middle of nowhere. What’s in the driveway? Tesla.

What you gonna do if it breaks down!? Walk!?

Edit: I’m learning a lot about cars in this thread :D Thanks for the feedback all!

Have you ever fixed an older combustion engine vehicle? You watch a youtube video and a few hours later, you can, in most cases, at least get the car to a state so you can drive it to a mechanic. On modern combustion engine vehicles this is still possible, although a bit more difficult.

Uhhh, EVs? No way you’re fixing anything in there.

Most EV components you’d need to replace are the same as in an ICE. There’s way less that needs to be done on an EV. The expensive bit has an 8 year warranty on most EVs including Tesla.

I mean I like bashing on Tesla as much as the next guy, but any car can end up like this regardless of price. They probably bumped into something that broke the locking mechanism and this is probably just a temporary solution until they get it replaced.

Breaking the locking mechanism while doing no damage to the plastic fender is an amazing feat.
