![]() The way I see it, the best case scenario is a massive logistical nightmare on top of the end-of-the-quarter push. Nonetheless, it is expected to create a logistical nightmare for Tesla’s service and delivery teams, who are going to face a lot more work once the fix is available. ![]() ![]() Tesla is still moving the vehicles to delivery centers since the fix doesn’t have to be performed at the factory, and the automaker cannot keep that many vehicles at the plant. The number could go up, as there were no known fixes nor a timeline for a fix as of yesterday. Sources familiar with the matter say that between 10,000 and 20,000 vehicles are affected by the containment hold. The issue is small enough that it can be fixed by the service team, according to sources, but the problem is the volume and delayed deliveries. Tesla is keeping the reason for the containment hold close to its chest, but sources familiar with the matter told Electrek that an unknown part is missing.ĬEO Elon Musk said last month that Tesla was having significant supply chain issues. Sources familiar with the matter told Electrek that Tesla is having an issue at Fremont Factory, resulting in Model 3 and Model Y vehicles coming out of the assembly line with a “containment hold,” which means that they cannot be delivered. Now, Tesla employees are again expecting a crazy end-of-quarter, but this time, it’s due to a supply chain issue. It leads to fairly intense end-of-quarter pushes, but things had finally stabilized during the last two quarters. Since Tesla owns its entire distribution network and doesn’t sell to third-party dealers, the automaker has been known to have difficult end-of-quarters where it is trying to deliver as many vehicles from the factory to customers in order to keep its inventory low. It is likely going to lead to a logistical nightmare at the end of the quarter. ![]() Tesla has over 10,000 electric cars that came out of Fremont Factory on a “containment hold” and can’t deliver them to customers, according to sources familiar with the matter. ![]()
