So this person will never need to spend money with Tesla ever again to keep this car running?

    EVs have drastically reduced maintenance compared to most cars. It's fully possible they wont have to pay Tesla anymore money, especially if they opt for home charging or use non Tesla charging stations.

    Yes but not Teslas. They are usually placed 2nd on the list of cars that fail the first Mandatory Safety Inspection in Germany after getting registered (it's after 3 years). And the first place is usually the cheapest Dacia PoS where it's at least understandable why they fail often. (A whole new car for under <10k)

    There's no new Dacia for under 10k euros...

    And the TÜV can be failed because of wrongly adjusted headlights, lack of a reflecting vest or very common with electric cars, rusty breaks (due to regenerative breaking).

    Back then the Sandero was available for 9k, now it's 12,5k. But now the Model 3 is also the worst offender at TÜV

    And they failed mostly because of Axle/Suspension Issues. Rusty Brakes too, but the other OEMs have solved this, by just using them occasionally via Software to keep them rust free.

    Either way, it's not a good look to have even worse quality than Dacia on a 3 year old car (14,2% Fail the Inspection)

    So suspension, brakes... and lighting:

    Neben Mängeln an Bremsen und Achsen treten beim Tesla auch besonders viele Beleuchtungsmängel auf

    That one is known and it's an adjustment issue, not a quality issue.

    The old ones are extremely reliable and last forever. Mine is 12 years old with 140,000 miles. It’s still drives like the day I bought it. The only thing I’ve ever fixed is the dashboard screen. And for that I had the option of going with a generic part and doing it myself or taking it to any mechanic.
