For what it's worth, my Model 3 from December 2018 with 35K miles on it has only had one issue (with squeaking upper control arms) and they replaced it under warranty, coordinated through the mobile app. I haven't had any other issues that would indicate build quality is terrible.

Same here - I have a 2018 model 3 and its gone in once to get a warning for the seat belt fixed. Its got 45k miles and had no other issues. Best car I've owned.

The best car I ever owned is my current car, a 16 year old Audi that had many prior owners and has nearly 300.000km on the teller. Its never given me trouble and anything you run into you can fix yourself with volkswagen parts. The build quality comes into play sooner than later.

Agree, Mine is a Model 3 from May 2018 with 22k. I've only had a couple of small issues, (Infotainment computer would fail to wake back up often and a bad switch on break pedal meant to register a foot but no press) both fixed with no issues. Judging by the serial number on my included diecast mine was close to one of the first 12k produced.

I also have a Model 3 from December 2018. No issues / defects at all.

I have had mobile service for things like rotating tires and installing a rear spoiler.

Better "initial quality" experience than the VW and Subaru vehicles that I've purchased.
