The extended warranty on my 2014 Model S is scheduled to expire in March 2022. Does anyone know of any warranties after that. Tesla told me that the company doesn’t offer anything.

Curios as well, my 2014 also expires in March.The extended warranty on my 2014 Model S is scheduled to expire in March 2022. Does anyone know of any warranties after that. Tesla told me that the company doesn’t offer anything.
I mean, by that broad and oddly judgmental stroke so is basically any insurance product.extended warranties are a scam to part a fool from his money.
Insurance is a legal requirement but most of the time its the same result.I mean, by that broad and oddly judgmental stroke so is basically any insurance product.
XCare offers world class coverage, based on the Tesla ESA, with only a $100 deductible. Hit me up for a no hassle quote. Just need your City/Zip Code, how many miles on the car currently and how many miles you drive per year. Cheers!

I find this point of view a little strange. I think it’s actually more understandable and logical for people to buy an extended warranty on a Chevy Sonic than it is a car that costs $90k.I would not own any car over $90K without a warranty (factory or extended).
When you own a house, you insure it because it is valuable to you, and you can't assume the risk of loss. When you own a car that cost as much as a small home, the same goes. On both you hope you lose the bet, and nothing happens. That is good to have been mistaken on the risk. I see daily repairs of $2000+ on Tesla Model S cars, many just past the manufacturer's warranty. A/C, door handles, Display Screens, in car charger, rear charger port, drive units, air suspension, steering assembly, seat controllers, etc. On an expensive car, things are very expensive to get serviced.I find this point of view a little strange.

A large, unanticipated repair bill for the Sonic owner could be financially catastrophic, to the point that the statistical premium paid is worth the elimination of risk.
Someone driving around a $90k car should not be subject to that same risk of financial calamity (emphasis on should), and should feel much more comfortable self insuring and knowing they’re highly likely to come out ahead.
As for me, I would have lost $3,834 on a hypothetical $4,000 ESA for my car.
Agreed, the loss would be catastrophic, to borrow my word from above.When you own a house, you insure it because it is valuable to you, and you can't assume the risk of loss.
Agreed, which is why I carry a full insurance policy on my car to cover me in the event of a total loss.When you own a car that cost as much as a small home, the same goes.
Also agreed. I’ve just never thought that the risk of a $2,000 repair is worth paying $4,000 to avoid. I have the means to self insure and the maths to know that’s almost always the right financial decision.I see daily repairs of $2000+ on Tesla Model S cars, many just past the manufacturer's warranty.

As a 2014 Model S owner, I have a lifetime warranty on the battery, but in th 7 1/2 years I’ve owned the car, I’ve replaced the screen twice, had the door handle rebuilt (Tesla doesn’t make the old style anymore) and replaced the charge port door. I’m not looking forward to paying out of pocket for future repairsAgreed, the loss would be catastrophic, to borrow my word from above.

To continue the analogy, while I carry homeowners insurance, I don’t find the economics of one of those home warranty products to be particularly enticing. If something in my home needs a $2,000 repair, I’ll pay for it myself instead of playing the odds on a game where I know the house always wins.

But, as this thread no doubt confirms, people have wildly divergent tolerance levels for risk. Some will happily pay 10x more to ensure they NEVER have to deal with a problem themselves and feel super good about that decision. Thankfully there’s a thriving market for people that want to explore those options.
By “lifetime” you mean 8 years, right?As a 2014 Model S owner, I have a lifetime warranty on the battery

Check with local banks. For example, my credit union offers warranties even if you don't have a loan on the car.The extended warranty on my 2014 Model S is scheduled to expire in March 2022. Does anyone know of any warranties after that. Tesla told me that the company doesn’t offer anything.
Owning a Tesla is like dating a supermodel. Lots of fun, but ultimately very expensiveReplace motorized steering: $1700, A/C repair $3700. Air suspension replacement $3500. All posted on this board.
