  • Asian cars have their own share of problems. Hyundai is well known for having horrible support, such as refusing to do repairs because a steel plate is scuffed (reported on by Louis Rossman) and delaying repairs because they’re using the available parts for new vehicles first (reported on by Technology Connections).

    Similarly for NA manufacturers: Chevy had issues with their Bolt EV batteries, and majorly bungled the recall, in some cases taking years to replace them and telling customers “just park it outside in case it catches fire.”

    Tesla has been accused of a whole bag of scummy tactics, fudging data and blaming customers in order to weasel out of warranty repairs.

Yes, the Federation survived that just by the skin of their teeth, but they survived.
