    2016 90d with FUSC SC01, bought pre-owned from Tesla, will it transfer to new tesla purchase?

    Searched threads but could not find any info. I bought my 2016 from Tesla as pre-owned with the FUSC. The code check trick clicking on the car image shows SC01. With the horror stories on the forum I'm wondering if this will transfer to the purchase of a new Tesla. Any experience on this?

    Need Advice on allstate declaring my bumper/panel damage totaled!

    I naively thought that I could just go third party and contact the other guy's insurance (Allstate) and get made whole without having to deal with my insurance, as the other guy admitted fault in writing by leaving a note. The 20K estimate come from the body shop I chose, and Allstate took...

    Need Advice on allstate declaring my bumper/panel damage totaled!

    More info today. So the 4k I received was not the ACV, that was some kind of down payment for repair after they did their video estimate. Not sure what they call it. The rep called the ACV 16K, premashup. KBB estimated around 20K as a rough guide. I am new to all this, and the Allstate...

    Need Advice on allstate declaring my bumper/panel damage totaled!

    that's my point, there's no equivalent vehicle. Does anyone know the rate of HV battery failure ? Is it related to total miles/battery cycles? my 90d has 146K miles. It'd love to see data on it. I guess I thought this car would keep running for another 10 years, but I've thought more...

    Need Advice on allstate declaring my bumper/panel damage totaled!

    Thanks for the responses, but the 4K was sent after a 2 min video inspection from Allstate. Then they called me to say it's totalled after I took it to the body shop and the shop estimated 20K. My perspective is that the car drives, the trunk opens, and there are no defects apart from the...

    Know a good collision/body shop in East Bay that won't charge max price for an older Tesla?

    Have an old but working great 90 2016S that got hit in the rear bumper, quarter panel. Drives fine, no warnings, charges fine, other than the parking sensor is out. Due to high miles the market value of my beloved 90 is virtually nil, but of course the repair estimate from a recommended Tesla...

    Collision/body shop in Nor Cal that won't always order new tesla parts and charge the max possible amount?

    Have an old but working great 90 2016S that got hit in the rear bumper, quarter panel. Drives fine, no warnings, other than the parking sensor is out. Due to high miles the market value is virtually nil, but of course the repair estimate is around 20k and insurance wants to declare it total...

    Need Advice on allstate declaring my bumper/panel damage totaled!

    My 90's fair market value is around 20K at most, as it has high miles. It runs great, used to look great and my plan was to drive it long as possible, esp with the FUSC. The way I see it there has to be a shop who can fix the damage to make it cosmetically acceptable, if not factory new...

    Need Advice on allstate declaring my bumper/panel damage totaled!

    I learned about the transfer of FUSC to a new tesla and was eager to hear more, but just read a story on the forum of tesla reneging on the deal. Have others successfully done this? i would need to take delivery of a new tesla in a month, so it seems like there is a good chance it woul not...

    Need Advice on allstate declaring my bumper/panel damage totaled!

    My 90 was hit while parked. The guy left a note but his Allstate insurance says the estimate from my shop (Brooks motors in nor cal) of 20k means it is totalled. See my pics. It is ugly but it still drives and charges and trunk opens. And most of all it has FUSP. So the Allstate guy...

    Miles watts stopped reading on dashboard

    Any idea on what's causing my trip data not displaying. Suddenly shows zero miles, zero watts on all trip data. Only the timer is working and total odometer miles. Rebooted the dash twice, and no change after several days.
