It was in Trøndelag in Norway that a man washed his new Tesla Model Y Performance, a car that in Sweden starts at SEK 684,170.

A little damage everywhere
The damage occurred to the hood, driver’s door, both rear doors and the front bumper.
It reports Norwegian Motor.
The man took his car to a Tesla workshop in Norway, which estimated that the damage would cost between SEK 69 and 79,000.
Tesla refuses
However, Tesla believes that it is not a question of defective paint and thus does not want to be responsible for the party.
Instead, it meant that the owner should contact the car wash to find out if it is instead the car wash where the fault lies.
However, the man has washed his Volvo in the same car wash for nine years without any damage.

On to the next instance
The Tesla owner took the car to a special center belonging to the Norwegian Automobile Association (NAF) to check the neck.
There it was found that the paint was both soft and bad. It was judged that the injuries were not on par with what can be expected after three weeks.
When Tesla refused to pay the damages, the owner went to the Norwegian General Complaints Board, where he was right and the paint was judged to be too bad.
Therefore, Tesla is now required to pay SEK 74,000 to replace the man. Whether the American brand will accept that ruling remains to be seen.
