I don't have a Tesla, but I had upholstery on the backs of the rear seats (the part that becomes the floor of the hatchback when you fold them down) all off on my Ford C-Max. It looks like an adhesive failure there.

Not making excuses for the big T, just saying that there's a lot places for things to work out poorly in automotive.

The wife's Focus has the same issue.
Pretty much all GMs in the 80s had problem with summer heat eventually separating the headliner cloth from the padding.
The foam padding breaks down and even though the glue holds, there's nothing for it to hold the cloth to but dust.
