60k miles, heat pump failure 2020 MYP - Tesla wants $4500
- Thread starter Darkphantom
- Start date
Wow that's crazy. I have a friend with a 2020 MY LR and she has over 40K on it with no issues whatsoever. Except for a pillar camera which had to be replaced due to a bad seal I think. I wonder what is causing your compressors to keep failing like that?

So small update but not really, spoke with the manager and of course they said no to the recalls regarding the heat pump because my VIN does not match up with the recalls.
I explain to him I had previously reported the issue but because it was not replicable, nothing was done.
No error...no repair...
Since I need the car back ASAP I have told them to go forward with the repair but I'm still waiting on the email back from the upper management. Even if they cover half I will be happy

Still waiting to hear back from the manager but I've approved the repairs so they can atleast start working on it.
From my perspective any $4.8K repair on an $80K/ 2 year old car w/ quite low mileage is beyond unacceptable. I know these things happen to fancy European luxury cars, which is exactly why I avoid them.
Sorry to see this.

Not correct. Any car regardless of price, which is out of warranty costs money to repair. Nothing special or unacceptable about it.
Are you stating that if all cars 10k miles past warranty had a failure, it's acceptable?
first of all, not all cars fail right after the warranty expires. It is rare, but still you cannot be treated as special and compensated. It is just OPs bad luck for buying something that failed.
Update on my HVAC issue. The line from the compressor to the super manifold sprung a leak.
When the compressor was replaced 12K miles ago, they replaced the line from the super manifold to the HVAC. So this was the original, and not covered under parts warranty.
Luckily I have Xcare and they took care of the $840 repair minus the $100 deductible.
I'm just glad it wasn't a forth compressor,,, that would be ridiculous.

That warranty service looks interesting. Not too expensive (at least compared to this repair).
Ill.be getting that soon, what did you pay and for how long?Update on my HVAC issue. The line from the compressor to the super manifold sprung a leak.

It’s for 4 years upto 120k miles. It was less then one compressor and manifold replacement…
Not 5k - that part is not more than $300 to produce and 3-4 hours labor top. Tesla is just price gouging.

Cars out of warranty… you are responsible for any repairs once you are 1 mile or 1 day past the expiration. This is what all other car manufacturers agree to also… why would anyone reasonably expect Tesla to extend the warranty ?
