    DC Charging a rebuild title Tesla

    Been off the site since last posting - sorry I did not answer folks on the ChDeMo test. Service Center tech that loaned me the adapter is the one who said it was disabled with any chargers. BUT... I just went through the process with my 2012 Model S #0007. A couple of months after I bought 007...

    Internal docs indicate Tesla to allow salvaged vehicles back on Supercharger network

    I just went through the process with my 2012 Model S #0007. A couple of months after I bought 007 from my brother in 2018, the unlimited free supercharging for life was disabled. The Service Center told me that mine was a salvage title car and that not only could I not use the supercharging...

    DC Charging a rebuild title Tesla

    Model S, 2012, VIN 00007, salvage title, passed High Voltage Test, no supercharging. As a test, my local SC loaned me a ChaDemO adapter. I signed up with one of the independent charging networks. It did not work. Returned to SC and tech said it looked like the access to direct charging had...

    I, too, have a salvage-titled Model S in Dallas. #00007 - 2012 - Signature Red. it has also passed the High Voltage test. Meaning that the SC can do maintenance work now (before the test was available, they told me they could not touch it). But no Supercharging. Dallas SC loaned me a...

    Sorry for the delay! The "Salvage-Titled High Voltage Safety Inspection" was $525.00. It says, "Salvage-Titled High Voltage Safety Inspection is intended only to determine if it is safe to work on the high voltage components of the salvage-titled vehicle. The Salvage-Titled High Voltage...

    I am traveling right now and will scan the report and post when I get home. I believe the High Voltage Test was $550.00, but I'll check and reply.

    "Supercharging option not enabled" message

    Got the message that 007 passed all of the High Voltage tests and that I needed to come in to sign something for them to now do the service #4 (the low coolant message came on the day I was told about the High Voltage test availability - and they couldn't address the low coolant until the High...

    Leaky Touchscreen!

    I thought I had a crack in my 2012 screen and the SC said, no, it is a bubble, and it is not a problem until the screen starts leaking. It is now leaking and the approximate quote first was $1,500 for the screen, or $3,500 for screen and MCU upgrade to LTE. Latest quote was $1,200 for the...

    "Supercharging option not enabled" message

    Took 007 in to the SC this morning for the High Voltage test and the tech greeted me with a hearty "Hi, your bringing in #7 to get the supercharging reenabled!" (we had chatted on an earlier visit - he remarked on the wheels being from Founders' edition, and how #5 is in Dallas.) This will be...

    Just wish it included turning Supercharging back on - even if it was with a cost!

    "Supercharging option not enabled" message

    Update on the saga of the salvage titled S-007! From my local SC: Hi Jamie, Apologies for not getting back to you right away. Tesla just changed the policy on Salvage 3 weeks ago, so I had to talk to a few technicians about how to proceed. The main story I got from the new policy is that we...

    "Supercharging option not enabled" message

    Yes, I knew it had a salvage title - but in all the reading on the Tesla web site before purchasing, I never saw anything about the hazards of buying a salvage title car. And I had been told all repairs had been approved by Tesla. Just figured the salvage title meant you couldn't resell for...

    "Supercharging option not enabled" message

    Thanks so much! As the story my brother was told was that it had been properly mechanically (not totally cosmetically) repaired and that Tesla had inspected and approved, I would like to see if Tesla has that in their files. My brother did not receive any papers from the previous owner. The...

    "Supercharging option not enabled" message

    Took the car to the local Service Center and was told that as the car has a Salvage Title, Supercharging has been disabled. And, I will also no longer receive any over the air updates and I cannot bring the car to them for service! I bought the car from my brother 5 months ago with the...

    "Supercharging option not enabled" message

    Yes, I see that message that I have free unlimited supercharging. I sent a message last night via the web site before checking the forum. Next step will be to go by the local service center. Thanks for replys!

    "Supercharging option not enabled" message

    Anyone know what is causing these messages at the local Super Chargers? Unable to charge - unplug and try again, followed by Unable to charge - Supercharging option not enabled message HPWC works fine at home. But I want to drive from Dallas to Houston next week and don't dare get on the...

    What do you do if you have a flat tire?

    Just had my first flat yesterday - in my first month of owning my 2012 Model S. This literally deflated my high from getting my HPWC installed the day before! Two houses down from my house, I got the warning of low air pressure, so turned around and went home. My brother, who I bought the car...

    2012 Model S Signature Cars

    New member here - just purchased my brother's 2012 Signature Red P85 - VIN 5YJSA1DP3CFS00007. He was on the list for a Model 3 and couldn't wait for the Tesla experience, so found this car, with a CA salvage title, in the Bay Area last summer. He fell in love with 007 and raved about it. Now...
