Daniel Boycott. Good one.

Maybe Daniel should have last named Tesla

He deserves it for buying a Tesla at this point.

One more reason not to get a used Tesla.

He got what he deserves

That said, why was the vehicle banned? Was it the car or the previous owner?

Edit:

"A Tesla representative eventually got back to Boycott and let him know that “the car is currently unsupported for supercharging and warranties are voided due to [it being a] salvaged vehicle.”

....

The Elon Musk-owned company said connecting a damaged vehicle to the Superchargers is a safety issue, which is why his car was removed from the network.

...

Tesla does offer an inspection option for customers trying to get their Tesla back on the Supercharger network, but for a fee of a couple thousand dollars."

Oh fuck
