For example this [0] They used non-automotive grade LCD, which due to heat in summer will go into yellow discoloration or LCD will start leaking adhesive or will just die.
And it's not like it's an isolated thing. Cars from all car makers are being recalled for things way worse than LCD discoloration.
The difference is how much press coverage even small Tesla things get compared to much more serious issues in other cars.
Like Mach E which was recalled for potentially shutting down the drive train, another recall for roof not being properly bonded to the car and another for loose bolts.
GM's Bolt had every single car recalled for a batter defect that could (and did) lead to explosion.
Jaguar i-pace was recalled for "The front passenger seat frame may be missing fasteners, resulting in a seat frame with insufficient strength."
Id.4: "An unreliable battery connection may cause a stall, increasing the risk of a crash."
One thing is mistake in process - i.e. Toyota or ID4 problems. Other thing is deliberate use of low grade, but cheaper parts, which can't long term survive in given environment. So your "perspective" makes no sense, only mudding waters.
What are these tests really trying to prove though?
90+ degrees C (194 F) for 408 hours is their "lowest" intensity test. That's 17 days of continuous solar radiation for 24 hours per day, which is hardly a consumer grade test.
Toyota just recalled their first EV, bz4x because, I kid you not, the wheels where falling off.
I guess Toyota couldn't find automotive grade hub bolts.

I'll take a yellowing lcd vs. wheels falling off.
