Burning Brakes
I took a factory tour on Tuesday - and they told us they are at full capacity - three shifts a day and 350 cars a day. And no supply issues for 911 or 718. Also said the steering column issue was also that they had some issues and wanted to redesign the parts in some way.
maybe too many warranty issues….
by the way it is a rather small assembly line and not very many robots - mostly used to move parts around from station to station. The cars are mostly hand assembled which is why they cost us so much.
they only use hides from bulls also which are more uniform in color then female and other Cow gender hides.

Searched the recall and title. Not much out there save a general RL discussion in the Turbo forum among owners experiencing same US port delays.

Drifting
I saw a deep dive video analyzing the Tesla production methods. The panelists were very high-end experts on auto manufacturing. They talked about how robots, for the most part, are a fallacy. They call them BOBs - blind, one-arm builders. Most people have no clue how hard it is to train a blind one-arm builder on how to do something simple like drive a screw. It takes an immense amount of programming to replicate the actions of a human. Walk through the steps in your mind of how you would have to do that and all of s sudden you have a very, very long list of things you have to train your robot to do. In short, you can train a human so much faster than even the most high-end robots out there.
I'm glad these cars are hand-built, but don't fool yourself, sometimes that "hand craftsmanship and care" is just being done because it's the simple thing to do

A year of waiting and now I can't get the car from the port to the dealer.
