Tesla says it will fix the sticky issue—which could cause panels to detach from trucks while driving—with a new adhesive “not prone to environmental embrittlement.”

      Glue is pretty strong and can work well. If you do it right.

        You don’t know that. The people of Kepler-452b might well be suffering under a truly awful automobile industry.

          Valid point. Whether they have sufficient hydrocarbons to start their own industrial revolution is of course another question.

    It’s become very popular. Jaguar, Lexus, Audi, they’ll use glues at some point. So I’m very surprised. It’s not as if it’s an unknown science. I’ve not heard [of problems] anywhere else.”

    Yeah, none of those brands are trying to be cheap as shit death traps though.

    I also find it fun how i heard this morning that it hasn’t even been fixed in production yet.

    Always have some chewing gum ready. (I would advise for cyanoacrylate but that’s illegal in some places because you could use it to stick yourself to the road as a form of protest)
