According to some current and former employees of Tesla the reason Model 3 production is behind is because up to 40% of the parts received at the assembly plant are flawed (WARNING auto play video) and have to be reworked. The company doesn't agree with what the employees are saying, but there might be some shred of truth to what employees are saying because Model 3 production is way behind their targeted production numbers. Hopefully the company will get its act together and start to fulfill more orders for the 400,000 people who reserved a car.
One current Tesla engineer estimated that 40 percent of the parts made or received at its Fremont factory require rework. The need for reviews of parts coming off the line, and rework, has contributed to Model 3 delays, the engineer said.
