My car is a Sept 2017 build S75. Pretty high mileage - I'm at 94,000 now. About 500mi ago the brake squeeler indicators started making noise. I have an appointment to have brakes done at Tesla SC for 10 days from now.
I must say I'm pretty disappointed. I've had the car on max regen since new, and use EAP as much as possible, probably 80% of my miles are with EAP engaged and when I am in control, I hate using the brake pedal and try to do one-pedal driving as much as possible. (i.e. I don't brake super hard). I live in CA, the car was built in Fremont 10 miles from me, and has never been outside of CA, or to bad / snowy weather.
Elon is a exaggerator we know, but he once said on Twitter that a Tesla's brakes should last the life of the car.
I feel like 93k~94k miles is pretty low to need brakes replaced. What is typical for a model S?
Also, my local shop (Wheelworks) said they couldn't do Tesla brakes, I had to take it to the Tesla SC. Is this true or should I shop around?
