I rode in one for the first time a few months ago and it immediately broke any preconceived notions I had of it being a luxury product. The weather stripping on the doors was installed crooked and the material on the seats wasn't lined up properly either. That's just what I noticed in the first minute or two. It wasn't even old, it was brand new since the owners first Tesla was totaled in an accident (in which all the recorded camera footage was lost on impact, you know the most important time you would want recordings to work).

That's because the recordings are stored on a flash drive in the glovebox. Very easy to break with the right impact.

Putting it in the centre console shouldn't have been difficult.
