Yes, 13k may be a perfectly fine price for the issue.

But that means a Tesla does not have as low a cost of ownership as people originally thought. It doesn't need oil changes, but now you have to deal with a low resale value and high insurance costs. The savings on fuel and mechanical maintenance may be lost to that.

IDK if people are buying Teslas for their cost of ownership, but yeah if they are they are in for a shock.
