| Description of the problem | Here is a tesla in the junkyard. Https://www. Iaai. Com/vehicledetails/36045205? Rownumber=2 not in a crash, no air-bags deployed. Only damage is to the rh front area. The tire is badly worn away. It looks as though a suspension failure caused the wheel to rub hard against the body but because the driver is a tesla owner and by definition not the sharpest tool in the shed he just carried on driving for a few more miles until everything turned to feculence. Please be so kind as to investigate. Thank you keef |
