According to "1818 Golden Eye," Ms. Jin received a Tesla Model X, valued at 600,000 yuan, as a gift in 2018. The vehicle came with an 8-year or 160,000-kilometer warranty. In June of last year, as the warranty was nearing its end, the car developed abnormal noises, prompting the Tesla service center to replace the rear motor free of charge. Unfortunately, shortly thereafter, the vehicle's power output became restricted. Upon inspection, it was discovered that the motor had failed again, necessitating a replacement that would cost over 50,000 yuan.

Ms. Jin argues that the newly installed part should be covered under a new warranty period, but Tesla has refused this request. Following negotiations, Tesla offered a discounted plan, which Ms. Jin rejected. She has indicated her intention to take legal action to protect her rights.
