Ok, let me get this straight....
We wouldn't consider a Tesla because of reliability but drive a car that had its manufacturer lose a case over having installed a time bomb in its cars for 7 years?

iPad doesn't hold a charge like it used to so lithium batteries are 'bad'? First off, we have 8 iPads, from first generation through iPad air 2. Battery life has remained consistent. If I do need a new battery I'd buy one and install it.

Didn't the Prius have a little problem with killing people due to an accelerator problem?

Didn't GM just lose a lawsuit regarding a small, lethal problem with ignition switch? Didn't ford make cars that would explode (Pinto) or rollover (Explorer)? These examples, companies that had been manufacturing vehicles for many decades.

Not trying to say Tesla is better, just off to a good, very interesting, start. I wouldn't be so quick to dismiss them their current efforts.
