But here's a different story that elucidates how a man in Finland expresses his dissatisfaction in an epic way.

What Does The News Confirm?
According to the reports, a man residing in Finland has recently blown up his luxury electric sedan that's a Tesla Model S of 2013. The car was subjected to around 30 kg of dynamite. The resident of the Jaala village, Tuomas Katainen, in the Kymenlaakso region of south Finland was extremely upset. And in his state, he expressed his disappointment aggressively by blowing it up. The reasons that the man claims for which he made such a move are technical glitches and demanding repair costs!

It can be stated that he happened to be one of the early purchasers of the Tesla Model S, and that's the reason the car is of the 2012 make. Katainen was so upset that he couldn't control his anger and annoyance about the company claiming 20,000 Euros (that converts to around $22,500) to replace the car battery.
Katainen took the model loaded with around 30 kg of dynamite at the snow-capped location. In the picturesque location, he made a mannequin with Elon Musk's face sit on the driver's seat right before the occurrence of the explosion. Before the explosion, Katainen prepared himself to shoot the whole event. And he uploaded the same on YouTube. As soon as it hit the social media platforms, the video got viral worldwide! Today, the video has garnered more than 4.5 lakh views on YouTube alone!

If you don't have any idea of who Elon Musk is, this legendary personality is known as the chairman and largest shareholder of Tesla. In addition, Mr. Musk has become the wealthiest person in the whole world quite a few times. Musk has a net worth of USD $278.7 billion in total as per reports.
The company of Elon Musk has become one of the largest sellers of EVs or Electric Vehicles across the globe. In today's automobile industry, Tesla dominates the market of electric vehicles. It's also highly regarded for the innovations and technological upgrades it introduces for automobiles worldwide. However, technical glitches and costly repairs keep dogging many Tesla buyers as this video proves and how!

If at all other news and reports are to be considered, a US case earlier made headlines where the auto safety regulators made a complaint pertaining to the full self-driving software that resulted in an accident.
In the beta testing stage, the driver experienced the malfunction of the “Full Self-Driving” software. During that time, the Tesla SUV had gone on the wrong route and got hit by a vehicle. Although no one faced any kind of injuries during the accident, it turned out to be unsuccessful from the company's end, and the Model Y was damaged.
