    Of course, Tesla should be taking this seriously, but I am skeptical that German inspectors are finding more things wrong with foreign brands than with German brands, especially given the scale and the influence of the German automobile industry in Germany.

      TÜV testing has been a legal requirement for seven decades, the results are not secret, there is no evidence of bias.

      The level of weird conspiracy stuff Tesla astroturfers come up with never fails to amuse…

        there is no evidence of bias.

        There is a glaring conflict of interest and implicit bias is real. Any organization that holds the public trust must identify conflicts of interest and actively eliminate or manage them in order to maintain their integrity.

        I do not know if the TÜV does that. The indignant and defensive responses that I see here do not inspire confidence.
