I have seen several catch fire and one actually blow up in videos. They're far from perfected.

Same here, every one I've seen resulting in fire and death at least a half dozen.
I will take my life over performance anyday.
Came across one crispy critter accident on freeway being towed away, firetruck blocking the lanes to divert traffic and an autopilot Tesla T -boned it?
The last one hit a phone pole on an expressway, caught fire killing mother and daughter.
Just from the accidents I've seen and the results, I refuse to ride in ANY Tesla.
I drive a 2016 Ford Fusion plugin hybrid, it's my 2nd Fusion. My 1st one was a 2012, last year I was T -Boned making left turn off SanTomas expy, my green light, by a fairly new Mercedes SUV. Driver never slowed down for the light. Spun me around, I want to say a 720, that's what it felt like anyway all the airbags went off. The speed limit is 45 but the average speed is 15-20 above that.
I walked away without a scratch!! Where a Tesla would have most likely caught fire.
The guy says to me why did you pull in front of me? He had no insurance. Some one on a bike had in on video with a helmet cam.
I have further comment on the Tesla drivers themselves but I reserve it.
