    Here is a guy explaining the problem. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3WldSl3HGr8

    It appears multiple panels on the truck are just glued on which is crazy. Will Tesla just slather on bunch more glue and call it good? That seems like a bandaid over a pretty major problem. I’ll be sure there is a large distance between my car and one of these shitty trucks on the road in case they decide to shed some large panels.

          Let’s hope they won’t cheap out on those bolts. Thankfully cheaping out on everything is not an habit they have, right?
