My Model 3 was in a minor collision with damage to the rear bumper. Looking at the invoice from the collision shop, there is one item that seems questionable to me. They are charging $98 to redeploy the firmware, which they say is necessary after replacing any electronic component. Is this really necessary? The only electronic component being replaced is one of the rear parking sensors.
Some of the other labor items also sound high, like $49 to disconnect the battery, and $310 for computer diagnostic and activating service mode. But I guess that's just par for the course with a computerized vehicle like this.
