I went with Tesla and was glad - they did the camera calibration and mobile tech came out a few days later to fix moisture issue. Also, sounds silly, but installed the windshield straight.
Looking at my model 3 vs my Kia Niro I would say it would be a dream having less than more to work on. There's some stuff that remains the same suspension, brakes, rotors, ac/heat (there are heat pumps)
Remember you can get an OEM windshield from them but this doesn\u2019t mean it will be set perfect since a human is actually installing it instead of a robot. If your windshield didn\u2019t have a logo it wasn\u2019t OEM.
A recent update fixed the issue with mine. I didn't smell it anymore for the last few weeks. I still had an appt with mobile service to replace my filters and they cleaned the evap core for free (paid for the filters) as well. Still no smell.
What type of maintenance do they need? Can you get parts for them (say brake pads) easily?
I owned two Model S, a 2015 that needed all new front lower control arms and the uppers rusted. And a 2018 that needed both front air struts completely replaced.
I am not shocked at all. Terrible quality for the price, that is the Model S way.
A month ago I bought a 2022 M3P with 7k miles, was at 310 estimated fully charged, now 280 all of a sudden at 10k miles.
I have 51,900 miles on my car and it just started to squeak like a 1970's car when I turn the wheel- REALLY LOUD. So I've read all the articles and I know this is a known issue for control arms...
I have a Model3 RWD, the heavy batteries cause the arms to crack, just by weight alone with road conditions in southern Cali. Both of my arms on both sides were denied by one service center. However, a month later, I took it to a different service center and they processed all of it under warranty.
2014 Model S P85D control arm broke while driving home. Tesla repair center won't work on it and claim that it was in an accident and to go through insurance. The vehicle has not been in an accident since I've owned it.
