They are the most data harvested car by far. Knowing these criminals they likely run statistical models trained on all prior Teslas, approaching it like an actuary/data scientist.
The overcounting may only be performed on Individual units that display certain patterns which indicate premature failure. Maybe it only occurs based on the profitability vs likelihood of warranty claim for that individual unit, mitigating losses for manufacturing defaults (or cost cutting by a narcissistic megalomaniac).
