This seems a bit fishy to me, I don't buy it.

I reckon the couple had done something stupid in the car like drive it through a fjord ford that was deeper than they thought, or through a flooded section of road and actually did submerge the battery. Multiple times.

Then went to dinner. And the car had enough.

They get the scary quote, then decide to omit the majority of the day's activities when complaining to the local newspaper in order to shame Tesla/Elon to pay up.

A fjord?? Or a ford?

A Tesla could definitely drive through either. lol

Go ahead and drive a Tesla through a fjord and tell me how that goes buddy
