Hi all,
Some of you may remember the post I made three weeks ago about getting stranded with my Model 3 and the non existing support by Tesla roadside assistance.
Finally yesterday I received an update about the car from the SC. Front motor dead, will be fully replaced. 1 year old car with 23k miles. It killed the 12V battery too. Waiting on parts now, should be fixed next 2-3 weeks.
When I queried what could have caused such a significant issue the answer was that the motor will be assessed by technicians in Holland and they will know long after my car is fixed so I will never know what actually happened.
Covered under warranty. This will be an expensive repair outside of it since Tesla doesn't repair, just replace.
I feel more and more uneasy with the quality of these cars. Second issue in first year of ownership and a big one this time.
I was thinking seriously about changing to the id4 but I am worried that these issues could evolve to be industry wide since all the experience the car companies have with ICE engines will probably not matter now. Disappointed at least.
