Bolt in Tire

[calisnow]

I made it home fine. Not sure when it happened, (in the morning or on my drive home). I am sure I can drive it to somewhere else. I kinda got scared off when Good Year was telling me they might not work on Tesla's. My experience with Mavis has been absolutely awful with my last car and I refuse to go there. This lead me to call Tesla and see what my options were.

Goodyear isn't "working on a Tesla" - it's just a tire patch - has nothing to do with your car.

Way, way overboard to have a service center inspecting your tire. Nothing wrong with that but you can save yourself hassle next time just going to a tire shop - it isn't rocket science.

I went to or called 5 tire shops locally and all needed me to leave my car and I needdd to be in my office. Tesla's roadside convienient for me in this case.

They didn't use to; they do now. (They even have mobile tire service vans to patch, or replace, tires wherever your car is.

Seriously? Tesla is running its own fleet of mobile tire service vans?

Maybe not in all areas, but yes I have seen a number of people report that a Tesla van came, repaired their tire and then left. Here is one article about it: Tesla launches Mobile Tire Service program in San Francisco to help stranded drivers

Hard to believe but this is what Good Year told me. I responded with "your policy better be reviewed soon since there will be thousands of Tesla's on the road soon". He told me it'd company policy but not sure if they are independtly owned.

Oh I believe you when you say some store drone told you that lol - that's why I never identify whatever high dollar car I'm bringing to a tire store first - to avoid intimidating the kid on the phone lol.
