Hi Fellow Tesla owners,
I have an 2016 MX 90D.
My local tire shop told me that the rear brake pads need replacement (about 125k miles) and quoted me $415 for parts and labors. But due to their recent service quality, I'm looking for a second opinion. Then I was told by another shop that only Certified Mechanics could work on Tesla brakes since they need authorization to get into the system. I found it hard to believe since I always thought there's not much difference than an ICE car when changing brake pads.
Could you share your opinion on this matter?
