In Denmark when a car reaches 6 years, it needs to be safety checked to be used on the roads. After that it’s every 2nd years.

Tesla model 3 managed these safety checks extremely poorly, with 3 times the average failure rate.

In total, 1,392 errors were found on the Tesla model, which is three times as many compared to the other electric cars.

    “Dump”? Is that a literal translation of the Danish word for failure?

      Du dumpede = You failed the exam.

      It’s very specific to failing an exam/inspection etc.

      Maybe that’s not a good translation, I just went with the auto translation, and didn’t really think about it, because we have the word “dumpe” for failing.
      Maybe it doesn’t work in English.

      I would correct it, but I already tried to correct 6 years to 4, and it doesn’t take for some reason?

        In English, to dump is (usually) to unload or discard, so its use here is a bit strange. I thought I understood what was meant anyway, but I wasn’t sure.
