Consumer Description
I bought aftermarket wheel covers for my Model Y from Tesmanian in August 2023. One flew off while driving in July 2024, and it was an extremely scary situation. I did not hit any pothole or strong bump or anything. It just popped right off. When I inspected my other wheel covers, they were in really bad shape. Many of the clips had failed (see pictures of two different wheel covers), and the wheel covers were likely imminently to fly off. I immediately contacted Tesmanian about this unsafe product. Tesmanian has completely ignored my safety concern and failed to protect the consumer - I have not heard from them following the last date I contact them, which was 4 August 2024 (see attached email chain). If one of these flies off a wheel at high speed, it has a legitimate potential to result in an accident. Tesmanian needs to immediately pull this product off the market, alert everyone who purchased this item as to the unsafe nature of the product, as well as provide a full refund to for all orders placed. Tesmanian's handling of this unsafe product is unacceptable.
