BYD pushes payment to suppliers to 275 days. Borrowing from the supply chain hides their debt burden and creates conditions that may cause a systemic collapse, taking their suppliers with them.

The main motorist interest group in Denmark strongly suggest people who own a Tesla model 3 or model Y have their cars safety checked before warranty expires.

Loosely translated:
Among the problems are play in the steering wheel, and bad suspension.

These problems are normally only seen on way older cars with heavy mileage. These problems are worrying because these parts impact the safety of the car.

Tesla however is claiming if the play is within the limits of the service manual, they will not have an impact on safety. "We design our vehicles so they exceed safety regulations." literal translation!
/translation summary

Lately newer cars from Tesla have failed 25-30% legally mandatory inspections, and Tesla is spewing bullshit about it!
It's not up to Tesla to decide safety standards. and failing to such high degrees right after warranty, is definitely not exceeding safety standards!
