Be sure to tell them that you hear grinding and clunking sounds when you turn the wheel so they fix your failing control arms. It’s a terrible design and they all seem to fail.
160,000 miles. 5 sets of tires, 12V battery, two sets of wipers, and $120 for a squeaky front control arm.
Extremely low maintenance.
I had a Tesla Model X for two years. It was constantly in for service. Broken AC, sensors, control arms, etc. The screen would reset while driving.
I guess that can be true, though my 2018 Model 3 (one of the early ones) has 150,000 miles and had 1 minor issue (bushings on lower control arms) that cost about $200 to replace, and a $70 underbody shield that needed replaced. That's it, which compared to all my gas cars of the past is basically no maintenance or repairs.
the only repair (covered under warranty) for the teslas has been a cracked control arm. Software has been pretty flawless. Drive train has been amazing. No battery issues (not even 12v for me). Everything just works over more total kms than i put on my jeeps.
Lower control arms. 12v battery. Charge door. Airbag sensor. Trunk cam harness under warranty.
Control arms will need replacing in tesla vehicles, and since the car will be past warranty no reason not to go with third party parts that are thick enough for the vehicle's mass.
My 2023 YLR has premature cracking on the front driver-side control arm. I’ve scheduled an inspection, hopefully it’ll be covered under warranty and won’t cost anything out of pocket.
I had upper control arms replaced on my Model X 3 times in 3 years under warranty.
My 23LR was taken in for an interior squeak (20k miles) and on inspection Tesla replaced the upper and lower control arms for free. They said they noticed wear. car drove perfectly and i inspect the suspension regularly all looked good, but who am i to argue with new suspension parts. also got an alignment too of course.
