Model 3 production continues to give Tesla headaches. This model is being very problematic for the company, something that is exhausting the patience of consumers who made the decision to reserve their car. Since in its day, when it was announced, thousands of people reserved their own model, paying a deposit of $ 1.000.
However The constant delays in the production of this Model 3 are causing problems for Tesla. So much so that many people are tired of waiting. Therefore, they have asked for a refund of their money. Because many see that the car never finishes arriving.
The latest information states that 23% of consumers who have reserved a Model 3 have asked Tesla for a refund of their money. So almost a quarter of the people who have booked this car have made this decision. A blow to the signature of Elon Musk.
While it is a major loss, the firm still has 450.000 orders pending delivery. So it may not be a disaster as some media claim. But no one likes to lose a quarter of their sales to problems in car production. What has happened in the case of the company.
In April 2016 Tesla received most of the reservations of this Model 3, but in April of last year, the firm announced that production was to be delayed for six to nine months. In that same month, the firm already reimbursed 18% of all orders. The other 5% has been in subsequent months.
