Abstract:
Cheqi.com, a third-party automotive complaint platform, shows that
Tesla Model Y has recently received collective complaints from car owners. The reasons for the complaints are generally "sales problems and price changes", and most of the models involved are 2026 models.
According to a complaining car owner, he picked up the car on August 26. The model was the 26 Tesla Mode 1Y rear-wheel drive version. When the vehicle was still hanging a temporary license plate, Tesla announced on September 7 that it would reduce the price of models with the same configuration by 10,000 yuan.
In just a few days, the new car suffered a substantial price cut before it was even registered.
As a new car owner, it is difficult to accept. I don’t ask for a refund, but I hope Tesla will give car owners care, such as extending the vehicle warranty or the three-electricity warranty.
Other car owners who complained expressed similar demands. They believed that the price of the car was reduced by 10,000 yuan less than a month after taking delivery of the car, causing damage to their own interests. They asked Tesla to provide compensation, including providing charging quota, interior options, FSD-related rights and other alternative care plans.
Previous reports showed that Tesla China suddenly announced a limited-time price cut on September 7. From now until September 30, if you place an order and take delivery of the car, the entire Model 3 series will be discounted by 5,000 yuan, and the entire Model Y series will be discounted by 10,000 yuan. After adding 0 interest for 5 years and 8,000 yuan of paint optional benefits, the starting prices of the two models have dropped to 222,500 yuan and 253,500 yuan respectively, setting a record low entry threshold.
Like before, Tesla’s price cuts came without warning. Tesla’s official customer service and store sales both stated that they only received the notification on the same day,
“I didn’t even know about this plan when I sold the car yesterday.” Tesla customer service still said that it could not satisfy the car owners’ demands for compensation.
In fact, Tesla has made many price adjustments in China before, and unlike other domestic brands, Tesla rarely gives clear notices on new models and price adjustments, resulting in many car owners finding that they have changed to an old model as soon as they picked up the car, or the price was backstabbed. This is the core reason why car owners defend their rights whenever Tesla adjusts its price.
However, netizens have different opinions on the price reduction to protect their rights. Some netizens support car owners in safeguarding their rights. After all, it costs an extra 10,000 yuan a day to advance, and everyone feels that they are the "wronged". However, some netizens oppose the rights protection and said, "If the price increases, will these car owners make up the difference?"
