Unfortunately, though I wish you were correct, you are wrong.
Take a closer look at the second link you provide under the FAQ section which states:
"The Battery and Drive Unit Limited Warranty covers the repair or replacement of any malfunctioning or defective Model S or X lithium-ion battery for a period of 8 years or unlimited miles/km, with the exception of the original 60 kWh battery (manufactured before 2015) that is covered for a period of 8 years or 125,000 miles (200,000 km), whichever comes first."
I said 120k but it is actually 125k miles.
Oh man! How lame is that.
IF you keep this car AND the battery goes bad before 8 years unlimited miles Please try to get Tesla to stand by their battery.
(if you are the type that "needs warranty" talk with Tesla about unlimited miles 8 year and see what the upgrade cost would be)
A tactic I might suggest (you didn't hear it from me - but I have used it and suddenly I was treated fairly) You go to the service center, hopefully when the place crowded, and read the warranty - not the 60 kWh exception - and ask why your battery claim isn't being taken care of - as quietly as you can so as not to disturb the room full of potential buyers - you get my drift??
Can't imagine why they won't cover it. Is it a 75 kWh software upgradeable ?? Will they give you unlimited if you pay the upgrade?
Well, possibly another tactic.
This really is not like Elon Musk (just reading the Aug. 2014 letter makes that clear) - why would 60 kWh be an exception?? Surely arbitration would go in your favor.
Since this paragraph is in the FAQ section, I really, really doubt that it is legal.
FAQ sections can't just be used to put in exceptions. Give us a break.
I'd hope just a clerical error and poor proofreading to include old FAQ from before Elon's Letter.
I'm sure you have the support of all Tesla customers that you be given the same warranty they all enjoy.
very strange
