This is funny. Most GM dealers can't even diagnose let alone repair their own products. Now they think they are capable of working on a Tesla?
Maybe Chevy should worry about making better cars. I love to read the comments of all the car experts on here.
GM, Tesla, Ford… Blah blah blah. Just bought myself a 2023 Toyota Camry Nightshade edition. Love it. Rides good, handles good, has the modern day amenities, whoopty doo. Runs on good Ole fashioned gasoline.
Not making a lot of money from Tesla, but they can see all the problems upfront from Tesla, this knowledge is priceless ! GM can learn all the mistakes and how to avoid them. Good idea to learn from and on their equipment. Still no way do I want one ever. Closest thing I would get would be a gas/electric or gas /solar car so you never get stranded.
Seems like Tesla is set to be the biggest company in the world. Will GM ever catch Tesla in EV sales?
It would be much cheaper to make an electric motor then make a petrol or diesel engine with each individual component the electric motor just has a few components a petrol and diesel engine has hundreds that is far more superior in reliability and longevity plus cheaper to run and you can run it for virtually ever with regular servicing electric motor rear bearings wine after 50000 miles and you cannot buy a separate bearing you have to buy a complete new motor at around $10,000 to $20,000 depending on what kind of voltage it puts out and power consumption why does NASA not use an electric rocket because they are crap
You can only charge a electric car battery so many times before the battery breaks down from inside out and then you need a new battery so if you use it a lot make sure you got a fat wallet I start going to church every Sunday to pray it doesn't break down good luck suckers
The footprint of a brand new car carbon footprint is a million x more then a 10-year old car that still drives perfect so why would we want to build and buy a piece of crap called a Tesla that is so expensive you need to be a part-time prostitute to pay for it electric cars have nowhere near the components a petrol or diesel car has it's basically an iPad running everything is just like a Magician's car simple to do the trick that cost a fortune to watch him do it
Scotty being as silly as ever. First he predicted FCEV will become the dominant platform. Now he agrees with GM they will overtake Tesla BEV sales in 2025. I have no reason to believe he's a good mechanic but he is completely clueless about the future of automobiles and probably technology in general.
Never getting an ev. Never buying anything Government Motors.
The reason Tesla's market share of EVs is going down is because nobody else really made many before… and even if they just made 1 car they would decrease Tesla's market share of EVs…
The fact is Tesla is selling more and more cars each quarter and the other companies are selling less and less cars each quarter. Lol…
If I had a Tesla I'd be uncomfortable with taking it to the junkyard I mean cheve dealer
Sounds like Scotty is reading a commercial for GM. Hope they paid you well Scotty.
Another video with old info. Teslas don’t start at 60k the M3 start around $42k the MY around 52k. ??♂️
The Chinese are coming. They will dominate in the EV market. Don’t forget GM is a Chinese owned company for the most part.
"GOOD MOTOR COMPANY" (GMC)
Anything beats walking. LOL
"Sizzlers"
I’ll just repair my 20 year old F-150 myself.
I understand Tesla's are great if you like to roast marshmallows. I've owned many GM cars and trucks. Their cars suck. The older trucks have been reliable. Not sure but we'll see if my 2016 GMC Sierra holds up.
Don’t forget those oil changes on the Tesla!
$4600 for a Chinese EV is a car for the masses. Here in America GM and Ford can't be bothered to produce a vehicle that the average person can afford.
To my thinking, GM opening its service centers to repair/maintain Teslas is a lost opportunity to kill Tesla outright. If you close off repair/maintenance avenues, leaving Tesla owners with few good options to get service, that will eventually kill off the brand.
Don't forget that the Chinese make 25 million cars per year and the US makes 13 million, wait for the Chinese EV's to take over the US market and get those at very cheap prices, the Chinese cars quality is going to be the same or better than the US cars ?
So if you wait a little longer to get an EV you'll save dozens of thousands the Chinese EV's will be affordable under 20k and way better quality than Tesla ?
The US cannot stop the Chinese because if they try the Chinese will stop all the American car plants in China and all American car companies from doing business in China that means GM and Ford will be deceased ?
I am not interested at all. I have what I need and it is paid for.
Wait, one quarter of all Teslas sold have been recalled?
Scotty has so many vids in which he admits that Tesla doesn't give any info to other mechanics on how to diagnosticate the error and how to fix the car and now he silently wants to imply that GM is actually fixing those cars? Looool. Maybe tyre changes and washer fluid changes, stuff like that. Which Scotty always that do it yourself.
Can you do a spot on magneride suspension. Mine is getting pretty bad sierra 1500 with 65-70k.
GM is my choice.
I heard that one in thirty new GM car is a lemon. So,there are your odds…
Everyone knows that GM (government motors and China) can't fail. That government and China will make sure of that.
Hey Scotty! Thank you for answering my question on Thursday's live stream. I appreciate it!
Glad to see the GM Federal bailouts are going to expand Manufacturing in China ??
Chevy dealer in my area has been fixing fords n other cars a long time now.
GM dealerships suck everybody knows it. They are lucky that Tesla will do any business with them. Frankly I’m surprised that they will do that GM is a dying cash burning business that has no idea how to make a profit on an EV. Too late to the game. They just sit around watching like everybody else for the last 10 years
GM can't even fix their own vehicles. Good luck Tesla owners. Awesome.
Anyone working for gm knows tesla and gm have been working together since at least 2020. That's when parts started coming in tesla/ GM on the box.
Wow I know you hate EV but you have lost a lot of respect after this tesla video.
These companies should have targeted the largest group being people that travel less than 150 km per day smaller battery, less bling in it, just for going local and it would have been cheaper from the outset, then gradually build to luxurious models, although if that happened, the infrastructure problem will still be there
Make mine GM
When people continue to buy garbage vehicles they get garbage service.
I just got a new Subaru forester. I'll stick with ICE for a while. Maybe in about 5 years we'll get a smaller EV. as a second car, but for not yet.
GM is doing it again. Repairing Tesla's EV'S gets design, structure,and circuit information for free. The same strategy was done by GM in the 50's and 60's to compete with Chrysler, Ford, and other brands to make cars of their own to compete with other cars in the same price segment. BYD in China produces good quality EV'S but at overprice . GM is also getting info from this competitor. A planned project to combine quality and lower price? Time will tell us the results of this strategy. Thanks for the video.
