    Insurance won't pay certified Tesla body shop their charges. Claiming they're too expensive!

    LOL!!! I think there might be a bit of some truth to something of that nature, because the Tesla dealer has to inspect it after the repair. Why else would they have to do this? Must be something to do with warranty. I will definitely educate myself more on this who Tesla business.

    OMG!!! THATS EXACTLY HOW I THOUGHT THE SYSTEM WORKED...That is why I took out such high limits on my insurance as well. More than the state recommended. Would be just my luck to hit a Bentley or something and not have enough coverage. Sad that they'll end up most likely having to not only be...

    Yeah I know that now but I didn't know that then. Like Dr. Phil says..."You don't know what you don't know". All I knew was it wasn't my fault, I have good insurance (or so I thought), and I could only take the Tesla to a Tesla certified repair place. And luckily there was one in Orlando. Thats...

    Where is the love button? I love this. Thank you! But one thing the lady said about that was that a Tesla is no different from any other high end aluminum vehicle and they take a stance on their allowable something something something.

    Facts being that I was taking my son to school and a lady coming out of the school parking made a left across traffic where the signs says "No Left Turn", Well she made a left turn anyway and plowed right into me on the drivers side. Said she didn't see me she only saw the big black escalade...

    No. They say I am excused from my deductible because it was not my fault. But what they are saying now that the estimate is in, is that the cost to repair is $10,000 more dollars than they will pay. Estimate is $16k, USAA says their appraisers acknowledge the damage as a $6000 cost to fix.

    Good luck. U definitely can't just take it to just anywhere. The Tesla certified body shops send the Tesla back over to the Tesla dealer once the work is done so that they can inspect it. And I don't understand why our premiums are so high if they are only going to pay out but so much anyway...

    Thanks for the advice! I wonder if I can do that now. Like switch now. USAA already sent $6k and some change to them.

    was T-Boned by a GEICO driver on Oct 31. She and GEICO accepted liability, but I called my insurance co USAA first because I've trusted them for many years. Now Im not sure why. Maybe because they accept my payments faithfully every month for years, who knows. But they said they would handle the...

    Hi, Thank you. There is a setting called "auto" I think it turns on your lights automatically when it starts to get dark.
