    $8K Repairs on 2013 Model S

    Similar issue here. I went in because my AC stopped blowing out cold air so they replaced the fuse for a little over $900 then I got my car back and four days later it bricked 🤔 and now they're saying I need a gen 2 DC/DC converter retrofit which cost a little over $6k and can take up to six...

    2013 Model S DC/DC converter bad - Tesla says $7k to fix

    What's the difference between the gen 1 and gen 2 DC/DC converter? Is the gen 2 supposed to be more reliable? Mine just failed right after Tesla replaced the fuses for the AC so the only option I have from Tesla is to do the gen 2 retrofit.

    Tesla wants to replace my drive unit - 900 miles on car

    I just took my car in yesterday and they said they need to replace the drive unit. I had no problems at all except for the fact that i hear the roof rattling and other parts of the interior doing the same. What's wrong with the drive unit? Did anyone ever find out?

    Worse experience ever! More fast chargers needed!

    I got stuck on my way from Seattle to Portland. The whole trip took approx 9 hours. I had to get to Portland after doing some stuff in Seattle, but a change in events lead to this dilemma. Charged at Centralia then drove toward Seattle and Lynnwood to do some stuff but not enough charge to get...

    Photoshoot Anyone? (Free!)

    I wish someone up here in the Bay Area could give a free photoshoot. I think my car would be different since mine is matte. I took some pictures by myself but I want to see it in real pictures.

    Dent Damage - What should I do?

    Damn looks like something big hit it and not a small car because that is pretty high up there. I think this will be an expensive repair compared to a paintless dent removal. You'll probably have to get it repainted. I feel the pain because something like that happened to me too and I'm just...
