If you know how these inspections work you will know that unlike other brands Tesla doesn’t do the inspections themselves so they are all done at third party inspection sites. The other manufacturers do them at the dealer where they first fix everything and then inspect them. This has been covered extensively in the past but every year this data is trotted out as proof of something. The selection bias causes this data to be meaningless.

selection bias?
ALL cars sold in Germany?
can you clarify?
All European countries that I am aware of try to make sure used cars are in good condition to keep on the road. This is why they promote regular inspections, which varies from country to country. The Tesla Model 3 has just started going through these inspections in Germany, and it has already earned an unpleasant title: the vehicle with the most inspection failures among 111 other models.
The Technischer Überwachungsverein (TÜV, or Technical Inspection Association) needs to inspect the cars in Germany for the first time three years after they are delivered to their first owners. After that, they have to be retested every two years
If you know how these inspections work you will know that unlike other brands Tesla doesn’t do the inspections themselves so they are all done at third party inspection sites.
that’s how they do it… for everyone.
The other manufacturers do them at the dealer
…it says independent - they’re not being sneaky. they started because a steam engine blew up over 140 years go.
TÜVs (German pronunciation: [ˈtʏf]; short for German: Technischer Überwachungsverein, English: Technical Inspection Association) are internationally active**, independent service companies** from Germany and Austria that test, inspect and certify technical systems, facilities and objects of all kinds in order to minimize hazards and prevent damages. The TÜV companies are organized into three large holding companies, TÜV Nord, TÜV Rheinland and TÜV SÜD (with TÜV Hessen), along with the smaller independent companies TÜV Thüringen, TÜV Saarland and TÜV Austria.
History
With the increasing number and efficiency of steam engines during the Industrial Revolution, there had been more and more accidents caused by exploding (or more precisely, bursting) boilers. After the explosion of the boiler at the Mannheim Aktienbrauerei in January 1865, the idea was pursued there to subject boilers to regular inspections on a voluntary basis, as was already the case in Great Britain.
