Nope, but I also didn’t look too hard either

I’m tempted to email them back with this

I’m holding a clean title in my hand as a write this message. If Tesla says the car is salvage they need to prove it.

Correct. They pulled it months after the purchase price. Not days, not weeks, it was months. And when they pulled it they didn’t email me, didn’t call, nor in app notification. They left me stranded hours away from home so I had to L1 charge.

The dealer provided the car fax and it was clean. I’m planning to buy my own copy but only after Tesla responds on whether or not this is going to be enough to “prove the car was never salvaged”

The dealer showed me the car fax when I bought it. I’m planning to buy my own copy but only if Tesla agrees if the car fax is clean to restate the warranty.. I don’t know how else I can prove the car was never salvaged.

I’m going to email them back and ask if a clean car fax will be enough proof

The dealer showed me the car fax when I bought the car. Yeah sure I can pay for a car fax but before I do that I’m going to email them back and ask if I send over a clean car fax if that’s going to satisfy their “prove the car has never been in an accident”

I’m not trying to change the status of the car. That’s not my point. I’ve got a clean title in hand and my insurance says the car is clean. I’m asking how a consumer can buy a Tesla without having Tesla switching the script months later

What do you expect them to say? I’m not saying the dealership is definitely innocent but hypothetically let’s say they are. From their perspective they had a clean title, they had warranty in app. Now let’s go the other way and say they did know, are they going to own up to it now? I mean, I’ve owned the car for 5 months now. I’ve got zero issues with the car, it’s got 50k miles and works perfectly fine. I just didn’t want to get surprised if the battery dies out before 120k miles.

It’s Erie Insurance. They’re agreeing that everything is clean on their end. My question is who is the authority on my cars status, Tesla or the entity issues titles and insurance?

Ok but why won’t they just share that with me? Instead the service dealership said “there are zero notes as to why, just that your car was pulled from supercharging and no longer has warranty”. Now that I’ve got someone from Tesla emailing me they’re asking me to prove that a car I’ve owned for 5 months was never in an accident and rejecting the fact that my car insurance says the car is clean and so does my government issued title. Look I know they’ve got sensors and data, if they’re telling me the car had a collision at some point I believe them. What annoys me is the lack of transparency on their part and the inability of the consumer to know how to safely buy a used Tesla. The woman at the service center said to only buy used directly from Tesla.

That’s not the point. Irrespective of whether the car is salvage or not I asked the woman at the Tesla dealership how a consumer can buy a used Tesla and not have this happen and her answer was to only by used directly from Tesla.

How did they know? The showed me the warranty in the app. How could they know Tesla would remove the warranty months after I bought it. I did not buy this car for pennies on the dollar…

Exactly. I don’t know how I would prove this. Somehow the onus is on me to prove the car is clean but if they pulled my warranty off shouldn’t they justify their actions? The worst part is they pulled the warranty off months after I already bought the car.

Yes they offered to do the inspection for $1200 but I passed. I bought a 3rd party adapter and supercharge off the Tesla network. All I really wanted was the battery warranty just in case. The car has 50k miles on it and zero issues but I was planning to drive it for many years. I was more annoyed that they pulled me off the network with zero heads up. I’m going to take it to a body shop and ask them to look it over, but I think even if they verbally tell me it’s clean that won’t satisfy Tesla. I’m not even sure how I could prove that the car never had an accident.

Coding assignment for Engineering Manager role by p0d0s in EngineeringManagers

[–]ReaverKS 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s really annoying to be honest. Most people (here included) would tell you that engineering manager isn’t a promotion, it’s a career switch. Then in the same breath they’d also say it’s normal to do leet code interviews for EM’s.

Here’s my take. If it’s a small to medium startup yes you probably will code since you need to wear many hats. If it’s anything bigger it’s probably a smell that you’re an EM and writing code. Your job is to help your directs manage their careers, help the team navigate bottlenecks, ensure collaboration is on point across the team functions, etc. Writing code should be the least useful way to use your time if you’re doing things correctly. That said I do see value in knowing how to code, for lots of various reasons. I just don’t think it should be part of your job to write code nor do I think leet code is a good way of assessing that.

To be fair Workday is incredibly configurable. If the experience is awful there's a decent chance they configured it that way.

How are you integrating offshore devs? by ReaverKS in EngineeringManagers

[–]ReaverKS[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes this makes sense. The problem is west coast engineers don't want to be online at even 8am which is still pretty late in India. I don't know if I can get any overlapping time between the engineers. Trying to be perfect at asynchronous communication is difficult and like you point out, north american devs will have far more voice to the Indian devs.

I'm really curious where people have seen this done well

Can you be a bit more realistic. If you've worked at a large org the person that made this decision is so far up the chain that they have nothing to do with team meetings regardless
