What owners wrote

Here is a tesla just arrived in the junkyard. [link removed] it has been in a major collision and it is a near certainty that occupants have been killed or seriously injured. The part of the car that has suffered the least damage is the back rh side and it can be seen that the complete wheel and suspension has been torn off. The wheel assembly has been placed in the frunk of the car. The torque link on the suspension is snapped along with all the other giblets.

Here is a 2019 tesla model x in the junkyard. [link removed] the lh back wheel and suspension has fallen off. The rh back wheel has gone as whompy as an elon. This one takes the proverbial biscuit. Did the tent monkeys run out of gaffa tape? Un freaking believable. To see this clunker in all its glory be sure to click the 360 degree box. I say again, un freaking believable. Please get these things off the roads before even more people get killed. Thank you. Keef
