awesome video :-)

With technology you will never have privacy

Oh Rich did you just found out Musk trying to monopolize and make as much money to built some other shit that no body needs....

It sounds like your talking about an iphone!

3:03 thats where that meme comes from

Excellent video Rich. I can’t understand why the fanboys wouldn’t want the car’s faults to be sorted. It would improve their beloved’s reputation. I’m from the UK and for a long time I’ve assumed that the USA is a land of top service. The majority of companies are Big on service. But Tesla seems to ignore that ethos. Big on technical issues. Big on speed etc... Slow on quality of finish, also poor service. The Big Brother aspect really puts me off. Although I like Tesla’s Mission, I’d have to wait till they sorted out their failings before I get their car. It’s a bit like Not upgrading one’s computer till all the bugs are ironed out 🕷 🐜 🐛 Btw. A good alternative to all that complexity is the original Mini. Keep it Rich. Maybe tune it up. Fix a door make it the best it can be. You know how high they can sell for. You will love it. It is a go kart. May the Force be with you.🌀 (-: :-)

Tesla needs to hire you!! Make you the head of their SERVICE DEPARTMENTS world wide. It's known that service makes more profit than sales in the automotive industry. I'm surprised they haven't approached you with an offer. It's a no brainer. YOU ARE A GENIUS!!! You know what Tesla should do to keep there customers satisfied long after it's been purchased. You can make them billions if they hired you and truly put to action your ideas. I want to own a Tesla. I'm the type who buys a car for the long haul. So a good convenient maintenance department is essential. Instead of putting money on a Mars mission, Tesla needs to get their priorities straight. Dude if you came out with a vehicle, I would buy it no questions asked!!😊😊 You're about satisfied customers.

So... In the end u actually spent 30.000-50.000$ on something you don't actually own. YOU GET A Y IN THE CHAT FOR THAT ELON!!! I'll then get either a WAYGO or a DACIA SENTRY if tesla doesn't behave

Telsa is seriously so fucking dumb...let me explain like Ruch said Tesla could possibly make 24k from one car if the car was sold three times just off of whatever feature. Rich also brought up a good point...when you buy a Tesla do you really own it????

Is that different from any other car really? Every car has parts that you can't replace legally really. Or if you replace them, you can't really claim it is still responsibility of the manufacturer to keep it updated or take the blame for something going wrong.

I feel like everyone should drop out of tesla market as nothing special since there are a lot of other companies that are doing the same. We the people are just making Elon rich when you have all these scams.

7:05 1000 pesos!!!

great job Rich!

Great points and logic young Genius! Its like renting the car since someone else ultimately controls all the electronics that are built into it!!

TLDW - yes... Simply yes

How does Tesla get away from all the shit they do, where are the consumer protection agency ? Mr Rich,does does tesla get away with all they shit they do-?

Tesla is a big scam.

Great job rich. I love your videos and I love Tesla but they need to be far.

Well you convinced me not to ever buy a Tesla

I always thought that it is the government that certifies whether a car is road worthy or not. Looks like I am wrong in the case of a Tesla. It's the only car that you never own, even if you have paid for it and think that you own it. And Rich, you are awesome! Your mission is far more greener than these money milking a$$es.

I want to thank your channel for convincing me never to buy a Tesla. Typical tech rip off tactics and you don't really own the car. It is a total scam.

With all the b.s. to get a salvage Tesla charging adequately. I don't care much for Tesla cars no matter how sophisticated or fast it is, in the end my petrol car would take me further and not worry to find a charging station.

I died when he was talking about hiring the snitch and a pic of 69 popped up lmao

Regarding who owns the car.. ie supercharging....that may happen may be true regarding a lease and not owners of Tesla's...great stuff and conversations Rich...keep charging..

Tesla should hire Rich!

Don’t attack rich, pound at Tesla’s door until your voice is heard.

tesla is like apple control freaks this why the micro soft number one in the world, tesla will lose in the E-market. they can't sue you if own the car but they own the software. Just make new software for your tesla and turn anything on.

There is an easy solution, buy a used Prius instead of a used Tesla.

Wow. Rip off. Thank you for educating the public. Amazing Rich. You are a genius.

Its like you ban driving in a country because you are afraid that someone will be involved in a car accident

If Tesla is not supporting damage and Salvaged Tesla, they should make sure the car is 100% recycled

Who’s the owner of that 2016 model x Tesla ? 400k miles in 4 years ?? That’s well over 270 miles per day everyday for 4 years. Wonder what they were doing

fighting the good fight. way to try and keep them honest.

Amazing how the stock is zooming-and yet the cars are poorly built and no after market service-whatever you save on these cars is all eaten up the exorbitant repair costs.

Rich I think it’s a great public service to call companies out (any company). As for fan boys that say what about the mission then they need to read Tesla’s mission, transition the planet to sustainability; your trying to do the same thing. If something can be repaired it should be used, that’s being responsible.

Tesla already got their money for the salvaged cars. Anything else they can milk out of people is a plus. I think people are slowly realizing that you don't "own" a Tesla, you're just paying for licenses and the privilege of driving one. I'm surprised they haven't started frying the controllers and shit whenever one pops up on the salvage sites.

Cus of this nonsense I won't buy a Tesla.

Why wouldn't they hire you. Companies are so stubborn. Typical bullshit.

The wording makes it sound like it’s just the supercharger tech they will sue you. DC fast charging may be different

A court could force the issue of the disabled supercharging on third party charging stations. If reach out to viewers that are in the same situation as you are, a class action lawsuit financed by the group could take on Tesla in court and the courts could have an injunction to force them to change the policy. The situation you described in another video where customers paid to have the supercharging enabled after a repair only for Tesla to disable it later sounds fraudulent to me unless they reimbursed the money. I get that this won't help your investment on the short run, but in the long run it would make Tesla a better company. Tesla's actions to "punish" you for your ALthe activities seems iffy to me. You aren't an employee, you are part owner of that company and a customer. Tesla is trying to copy how Apple is making it very difficult for third repair shops to repair its computers. Maybe it's time for people to design an open source EV where this won't be an issue. You might find Louis Rossman's channel interesting given the issues he has had with Apple.

I’m sure that guy on the forums is also tasked with watching Rich’s vids

You can't ask Tesla for supercharging access, but if they blocked you from DC fast-charging, as far as my limited knowledge goes, they don't have any right to do that, my advice is : pay for an add (if you can afford it) on youtube that will surely make everyone realize what Tesla is doing behind the scenes, then Tesla will probably allow DC fast-charging

I made a video comparing how there direct sales methods causes issues that wouldn't occur under a franchise model and the tesla fan boys NAILED me to a cross for it. Same with you i LOVE Tesla and want them to improve but it seems am unable to convince the fan boys these issues exist even with physically proof

can tesla pease put a PS4 in the car for fortnite.

Upstart sux buttts

I'd never buy. Or want one. Im good with my old mechanical diesel pickup

I dont know about this one. I still think as a new product that people are still unsure still seems smart to reduce the potential risky super charging. Remember how people made a big deal when the tesla auto driver crashed, even though the statistics were in their favor, its still hurt their sales. Its not they dont want you to share their charging services, its that they dont want to risk a tesla blowing up in ANY SUPER Charging, because thats exactly what the competition is waiting for. Im still glad you've made people aware. especiialy the DIY auction hunters.

Try rivian lol

Man the way you wrapped that up. Ice gotta get my act together

Elon's brutal deadlines force him to do SUPER SHADY shit to get cash in the building.

I do all the work on my own cars now. I cannot imagine having to go to Tesla for every little thing. I also do not like the idea that they have more control over the car than I do! I feel with you Rich!

Rich show great and impact of your questions great. one other thing I can't figure out with Tesla is their pricing of used model s. very hard to buy them when they are priced within a few thousand of a brand new model 3. I supposed resale is preserved but if no one will buy why bother

Porsche should make affordable electric cars

400k miles ? I’m exhausted thinking about all the charging to get that many miles on a tesla

Proud of this guy. He's very intelligent. Keep it up bro!

Awesome video as always Rich!

So wait. If I sell my Tesla, the next owner doesn't get Full Self Driving, because it follows me and not my car, right? So does that mean on my next car, I get it for free because I paid for it on my last car and it doesn't stay with the last car? If not....I smell a class action suit

Didn't we go threw this lawsuit already with farmers vs John Deere?

yes

Imagine paying for fsd and they disable it wtf

hey man, I'm looking to buy new model 3, what do you think the chances are that Tesla would be dicks and disable supercharging for it?

Love ur vids

Or.. if they hired him to do repair and or inspection. Rich, keep up the great work and thank you for showing the faults in the system. I love gas but tesla has proven electric can compete so it is a love hate deal. Lol

as an electrical engineer, I can potentially built my own super(whatever) charger ... it's my car , and I modify it

Tesla: Disables supercharging Me: Disables the WHOLE Tesla company

They both need to go on Joe Rogan and smoke a blunt

Lol Rich is Louis Rossman of Tesla

I'm sitting at my computer watching your damn video, Rich, what do you think I'm doing? Gosh!

We so need a federal right to repair bill. Also, company shouldn't be able to take off an option, it was sold as an option not as a subscription service. I'm surprised i have heard of more lawsuits on this.

All you Tesla cucks glorifying Tesla and calling elon a god smh

Hey Rich, maybe you know what’s going on here. But Tesla keeps adding and removing unlimited supercharging on me. I called Tesla but they can’t seem to find out why this is happening? Have you encountered this issue?

I'll tell you what i'm doing: driving an EV that's not a Tesla and actually own it. I really don't get why you want to put all that talent and resourcefulness you have to try to fight a clearly Don Quixote battle. There are so many other EVs out there with interesting drivetrains that could benefit from your abilities, so why not start throwing a bit of those in the mix? No one has yet started seriously modding EVs rather than just strip them down to feather weight (if that is ever possible in a 2 ton vehicle), the only really cool ones are the conversions, where imagination is the only limit (see EV West). Tesla started with the best of intentions (sharing patents) but seems to me they have fallen back into a very corporate, protect every ounce of my IP, kind of mentality. And that is ok as long as they don't overreach on the most basic of contract between a seller and a buyer. Honestly i would be much funder of the car if it would lose all the expensive "add ons" and make a truly pure EV (impressive drive train + Battery + simple creature comforts) ...nothing more (imagine if all that HW wasn't installed on the lowest costing version...how much less would it cost?). Again just a thought...space to the haters.

Hey brother thanks for standing up for us for we the people need help in every way possible for the bigger Tesla gets it's us the little people who gets shafted for buying into a cleaner planet greed money will always bring out the Judas in us

Your idea put in the protocol on the superchargers themselves is a very good one. Not just because it allows their Network to be protected without keeping you from using the supercharger that you buy and have installed in your garage but also because if you were to hack your car to turn it back on then their Network would treat it like it's back on. It is essentially gives the end-user power over their Network, and I am not confident that their legal language would fly especially when you consider states with right to repair laws and first sale Doctrine. Add in the fact that if you buy a charging station directly from Tesla they are keeping you from using Hardware that you paid for. I'm extra concerned that if I were to buy a Tesla and let's say something happens to me and my significant other takes over the title, well, Tesla would disable its core capabilities purely on the basis of a transfer of ownership. They would literally kill it if the owner died and that there's nothing else wrong with it.

Iphone in a Tesla

Hey Rich. Im watching your channel and coming to the conclusion that Tesla sucks. I wont be ever getting one, not that i can afford one. Your solid observations are awesome. Keep up the good work man.

Tesla is basically the car industry equivalent of apple

I think if i owned a rebuilt salvage I would be looking to hack the software, enable everything, and cut the connection to Tesla completely. It's MY car, I own it and I can do whatever I want with it. We fought this same fight years ago with Apple and the jailbreaking/unlocking of iPhones.

Elon is a "Fascist".

The wise man on the mountain.

I love your videos, and I am so happy I found this channel! Keep up the outstanding work!

You're not making Tesla look bad, Tesla is.

They basically sell you the privilege to use their car, it has all the hardware and features but they only unlock them if you pay more. So who really owns the car if you can’t do anything with it. Welcome to the future

Tesla is the new apple

Good information about supercharging. We can't choose to do third party supercharging because Tesla can sue the car owner who does not really own the car. It's videos like this one that makes me NOT want to reserve a Tesla whenever I get that Cybertruck itch like a Tesla-buying bitch.

Loving your vids.. I think its safe to say I have been put off the Tesla's due to, as you say, who owns the car. When I buy a product, I want to be able to do whatever I want to or with it, while its in my possession. So of course if I want to Enable and Disable features on it. Should have the power to do so. Totally understand warranties would be void etc, but this would be my decision as to whether i want them enabled or not. I'm not sold on the whole autodrive thing as I would still prefer to have control. Fast Charging or supercharging. I'm sorry, this should be enabled regardless. There should be safeties in the car when you plugg it in to decide how much power it draws for charging. To disable it completely. Nah, not my bag. I mean what if I decided I wanted to stick a Solar panel on the roof to keep the car topped up on Long journeys, like I do in my Motorhome. Surley I should he able to do this if I decide I want to.. Again its all down to control of what you are allowed or not allowed to do, or what they think they can allow you to do.. If this makes sense of course

I was getting a Tesla but I will not be buying one for being ass holes

Here's an idea I know you're for Tesla not so well finding good but I'm sorry in the end gas powered vehicles is still going to be number one elecktronicks vehicles will never go over completely it's a novelty complete and total novelty I would rather drive a vehicle that has gas power then a vehicle that thinks it knows everything and where I wanna go I'm visually impaired and Tesla would be a perfect vehicle for me but I'm not going to put my trust and a vehicle that a bunch of smart guys that think they know everything and they don't know Jack ship about common sense I'm not going to put my faith in the that product I'm sorryEgotistical people get people hurt and EI musk isn't eating disco person he thinks whose product is on fallibleHes want more money for people that don't have the money to give hes a greedy lowlife piece a ship he just has a suit and tie that's itAnd go ahead come at me I don't care I think is designs are good but I think hes shooting at the moon and hes bissingQuit rolling about the environment because global warming and all the bullship that people push and push and push its just like fall Winter Spring summer it's seasons it happens every 100 to 200 years look at the process of everything look at that and then and then and only then come at people with knowledge don't listen to these India Arctic scientist that think they know everything they don't know Jack ship it sorry it's true it's just like this covert 19 bullship it because trump is pushing for people to get along hes a racist he tried to shut down everything all imports everything that way we could be protected but no that's being racist Eli musk and all the other idiots that think they are big Badin brave think they know everything that's going on they don't know Jack ship you ought to be ashamed of yourself for backing people like that I hope this finds you and you do research and actually think about what you're putting out there instead of blindly following somebody just to follow somebody quit it be a leader not a follower

Why hasn't Rich hooked up with the "right to repair" people?

I am not a Tesla owner but the issues aired reminds me of Apple computers IOS and Microsoft OS and computers. Some entity will eventually clone the Tesla system and make it better. Apple/ Mac tried and lost.

Okay I see you have a lot of skin in the game and I deeply respect that. I understand your position on the software. John deer is doing the same thing to farmers. Quit salvaging parts and quit working on your own vehicles. I believe that the truckers are running into the with the same problem the right to repair. I personally wouldn't buy a electric car at this stage of development because of a host of issues, but I wouldn't deny anyone the right to keep on building them and selling them. Nor should anyone be denied the rights to write and sell software to operate systems on cars. It really is the right of ownership. Your argument is well founded and presented. Good luck on your endeavors.

This is the main reason I don't support Tesla!

Maybe they should just disable supercharge feature to prevent fires on all Tesla cars...Lol what a piece of shit car/company. Paying all that money... To get sued that that shitty company with their shitty cars.

IM LOOKING TO BUY A NEW CAR, IM STAYING AWAY FROM TESLA BECAUSE THERE CREEPS AND DO SHITY THINGS... UNTIL THEY CHANGE THERE WAYS NO ONE SHOULD EVER BUY ONE OF VEHICLES....

I didn't have sex, but I was planning on it :/

"The Golden Hammer" ala IBM...

Tesla need to stop being dicks

Hi Folks.. Ok It's one thing if Tesla locks people out of there network. It's one thing if someone try's and enables some features and goes through the Tesla network and if someone does so behind Tesla's back kind of thing. I get that. BUT, the problem that Tesla has is that they are trying to have control over these devices even though these devices are no longer Tesla property or in Tesla's possession. This is where the dividing line is. What Tesla is doing is basically committing fraud. For Tesla to give anyone this nonsense that they'll sue you is hog wash. Once Tesla sells these devices these devices are no longer Tesla's property. You can basically do what ever you want with these devices. If you want to use a different charge network. Ultimately Tesla can't do a thing about it. Tesla can't keep you from reconditioning salvaged cars and fixing them. Let me explain to you what Tesla's business model is so we're all on the same page. are you ready? They are all throw away devices. Tesla doesn't want anything to do with fixing or even having damaged devices back on the road. What they do want is for you to put another 50k 120k back on their table. The problem is Tesla is missing out on a huge revenue stream by having this bad attitude towards fixer uppers. I'm starting my own business and I can't afford to miss out on any potential extra money. Another thing what they're doing is to some degree is tick'n people off. Another bad business practice.

Wow, I looked at buying a Tesla a couple of times but the supercharger network was lacking where I would be using the car so put it off until they expanded it but after watching your last couple videos I’m out. I don’t think I would ever buy a Tesla until the government steps in and nut cuts this behavior. There practices are sketchy as hell!

Every time I see one of these pathetic trojan adverts in your videos I thumbs down.

Basically every joke he makes about Tesla is to the T (lol literally).
