A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

I think Tesla not having any independent mechanics is by design.
The problem isn't the mechanics, the problem is getting repair parts. Tesla is the only one who makes Tesla parts and they've decided that those parts are going toward new Teslas, not repairs. (My Tesla was in the shop for 11 MONTHS thanks to this fun state of affairs.)
While EV's that share a platform with ICE cars are generally worse than ground-up EV's, the nice thing is there are plenty of repair parts available.
