After two months and 1,400 miles of owning it, Mark, whose brother\u00a0owns a 2021 Tesla Model 3, says he loves the car but that doesn&#8217;t mean it&#8217;s perfect.<\/p>\n<p>For example, he says the <a href=\"https:\/\/insideevs.com\/tesla\/\" data-inline-widget=\"internal-links\" data-type-id=\"2\" data-params=\"%7B%22alias%22%3A%22tesla%22%7D\">Tesla<\/a> Model Y Performance&#8217;s ride quality is on the stiff side, but that&#8217;s something you expect from a car that has &#8220;Performance&#8221; in the name. Still, you learn to live with it, although a more balanced setup would have been great.<\/p>\n<p>From a more practical standpoint, Mike is disappointed that the frunk does not have power opening and closing, arguing that any Performance model should have this feature. His problem with a manually opening frunk is that he doesn&#8217;t want to touch the hood and leave marks if the car is freshly detailed or get dirty if there&#8217;s dust on it.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Moving on, the owner complains about the lack of a rear hatchback sensor that would come in handy when parking inside a garage, preventing the hatch from hitting a low ceiling. Sure, the hatch&#8217;s opening height can be adjusted, but it&#8217;s not the same thing. Speaking of the hatch, Mike is also bothered by the lack of a cargo cover.<\/p>\n<p>Autopilot braking also makes this owner&#8217;s list of complaints because he feels the car is braking too late and too abruptly. Check out the above video for the full list of complaints.\u00a0<\/p>\n<section class=\"relatedContent-new trinity-skip-it\" contenteditable=\"false\" draggable=\"true\"
