I knew I would hear from you,
@Ken7 
I am super happy your S has been the best car you have driven. They are fine machines! I had 3 different colors as loaners and loved them all very much, but sadly, the S is still having delivery issues, and maybe, it gets more attention because folks are in forums writing about them. Just a quick glance at the "other" forums indicates mostly fit and finish items including paint issues, but when I see another with air shock issues on day 1 to error messages that made them head back to the SC within the past 4 months, I just cringe. Yes, I am aware of the high customer satisfaction for the MS because my wife kept throwing that in my ear, too
Anyway, it's good conversation and I hope you get many years of enjoyment from your Model S as I am sure you will.
I kind of thought I’d hear back from you too.
Remember, repeated service issues are not the sole domain of Teslas. Check out the frequency of repair records for some of the highly esteemed (and very expensive) German cars. Yikes! Crap can happen with any car, any brand, and yes it can happen on day one of ownership. I certainly am not refuting the issues that Model X owners have had, it’s gotten enough publicity in Tesla circles. A neighbor has one and he too has had issues with the gull wing doors. Elon admitted the car is probably too complicated.
Not long ago we had a Mazda 6. The car spent more time in the shop than in our hands. We were particularly frustrated with the car’s Nav. The map display would constantly rotate, even when stopped at a light. They replaced every component of the Nav, with no resolution of the issue. We eventually took them the Lemon Law route and won. I should add that Mazda, unfortunately, did not handle our case as Tesla did with you, we had to fight. Then there was our PHEV Sonata, with its never ending ‘check engine’ light. 6 times the car was brought in for service, 6 times the light was reset, and they never found the issue. That car is now gone too.
Even our Acura TLX had ongoing transmission issues. So I am very familiar with chronic service issues, just not with my Tesla.
My point is issues can pop up with any car, and I’d virtually guarantee you that those owners won’t enjoy their car to the degree Tesla owners do, the stats prove it.
One thing most of us here can agree on, is the Clarity is an excellent car. Let’s hope its reliability is better than your Model X or some of my past cars.
One departing thought about car forums, actually any forum on any product. The most vocal folks on so many of those forums tend to be people with legitimate issues who are venting, to say nothing of paid plants from other manufacturers trying to instill FUD among prospective owners of these products that go there for information. It’s an unfortunate fact of internet life. The majority of happy owners simply don’t post, they just enjoy the product. Between the legitimate complainers and the paid FUD spreaders, one might not buy any product of any type.
