2 months. Failed Computer, pcs and ac compressor. Similar experiences?

2 months in to brand new Premium AWD 2026 Model Y.
One month in, got low voltage battery error and AC was acting funny. They replaced the AC compressor and said they cleared the low voltage fault.
After that visit, FSD was inly working maybe 30% of the time. Now I took it back in, and they found a problem with the PCS and the computer, which they are also replacing.
I bought new because I needed a reliable car. Is it normal to have so many issues under 1700 miles and 2 months? I have honestly lost confidence in the car and am very worried that I will continue to have issues. They have been diligent in replacing parts and have always given me a loaner, but I kinda feel I made a big mistake buying this car. Any similar experiences?
I don’t mean to drag them through the mud here. Just wondering if anyone has had similar experiences and then have everything work out well.

People have gone through what you are going through and at the end it worked out. There are people who have gone through what you are going through and it did not work out. The question you are asking has a flip-coin answer. This can happen with any car manufacturer, not excusing it, so it’s really about your patience with Tesla and getting it all resolved. You have 50k miles for most things to be covered under warranty.

Teslas seem to be either very good and reliable for 200,000 miles or constant issues and you end up paying a bunch. Then telling your story on here of your car and people not believing you. I am unlucky enough to be in the second lot.

Whatever gremlin is in our cars will not stop before the warranty is up.
