Actually, I would say they are more the same than different, and possibly more serious for Ford because of so early failing to start on several vehicles already. Anything that leaves you stranded is serious and deserves to be lumped together for comparison between Ford and Tesla. All expectations is that Ford will resolve issues quicker than Tesla, and that is what matters... but that will not be proven either way for many years, especially for failures that don't show significant issues for many years like rocker arms.This is a false equivalency for several reasons. One is that Tesla has been saying they'll get it fixed for ten years. Still hasn't happened. Two is that an issue with a 12v battery is not the same as water leaks , door handles falling off, and rocker arms failing.
Objectively, it's too soon to say. I am sure Tesla was very eager to resolve their 1st gen roadster customers, etc... Ford doesn't have that great of a record for some of their past vehicles, although generally it's been better than Tesla's.
