    Wow - When you buy tires from Tesla, you get no coverage?

    Sadly I mistakenly assumed Tesla would have some form of this as their warranty is robust normally. I would understand if this was for the original stock tires that came with it - but not standing by tires that are half a year old feels very scummy. Either way, being able to have a conversation...

    Wow - When you buy tires from Tesla, you get no coverage?

    It's still there, they only got to it this morning since it happened later last night. But he said 2mm on the back tires, 5 on the front. either way, I've bought one tire already (and rim for 1300) so I'll need 3 other close matching ones. I'm just worried that the one I bought now is another...

    Wow - When you buy tires from Tesla, you get no coverage?

    Sadly that is probably the best course of action for Tesla owners...which is a disappointing realization for me.

    Wow - When you buy tires from Tesla, you get no coverage?

    Just to update... Sounds like it was a normal flat, and the pulling into the parking lot shredded it in that way. The rim is damaged as well so it's $1300 or so to fix. Fine - it sucks a lot. This particular tire issue aside, what I'm dealing with now is that they're saying that my tires are...

    I normally wouldn’t go first party, but Tesla stuff is so different because you can’t go anywhere for service. So I decided to keep it in house (I was in for unrelated service when they sold me on new tires. It was already in the shop)

    It feels like Tesla should mention that they don’t offer that when spending two grand on tires. So the lesson learned is don’t buy tires at Tesla, which seems backwards to me.

    But I didn’t buy them from Discount Tire. I bought them from Tesla direct.

    Wow - When you buy tires from Tesla, you get no coverage?

    In March, I bought all new tires from the Tesla Shop. Today my wife was driving and one of them fully exploded and she drove on the rim into a parking lot for safety. Put in a service request and they force me to agree to pay to fix (impossible, see pictures) or buy a new one. So if I went to a...

    Ingenext Boost Modules [aftermarket]

    So you can feel that rollercoaster feeling even more? goddamn maybe I should test it and refund and then buy it later.

    Wood strip maintenance?

    I have white interior and it being plastic is kind of a bummer. I wish it were stained wood or something. Or even fake the texture.
