In typical, modern Honda fashion, build quality was disappointing. The vehicle did not require any warranty repairs over the two years I owned it, but I did have to replace the front rotors at my expense due to brake judder. The fit and finish of my Japan-built Mazdas just can't be beat.
Based on what I read, I was expecting my Tesla to be poorly assembled and require lots of warranty repairs. It might be on fire in the parking lot as I type this, but to my surprise and delight, the fit and finish were acceptable, if not impressive for a vehicle from a company that has only been mass-producing automobiles for about 12 years. It has not required any warranty repairs...so far. The worst issue it had was a rattle caused by an extra bolt that was rolling around inside the front passenger's door that was easily resolved.
