You can find stories in the Tesla forums. The cars might look and drive great but pray that you will never have a problem or that someone runs into you.
I can attest to some of it. my rear quarter window was smashed a few weeks back, one "approved" shop was going to charge me $1K to fix and i had to wait a month for the part. i was pissed.

Then local tesla center called and said they can have a guy out to my workplace and fix it for $300 within a week. i think at some point it'll make sense to keep everything in house eventually. more control and better margins.
