2021 Tesla Model Y 4dr SUV

450-horsepower Electric 1-speed automatic AWD

1000 mi The rear spoiler wasn't applied correctly (very common issue). However, they just sent a mobile tech out and they fixed it for free and in about an hour which was pretty convenient. I do occasionally get camera blocked warnings (appears to be condensation between the outer glass and the camera behind it, on the door pillar cameras). Not sure if it warrants a service call yet, as each time it has only given the warning for a few minutes before going away on its own.

2000 mi Headliner was ripped, additional paint correction performed, trailer wiring harness was non-functional, wheel embellishments replaced due to splatter from previous paint correction. These issues were all successfully delt with on this trip. Fixed remaining paint issues.
