1) Dump car as-isAnyone, I need options.
I'm with you. Service is terrible and needed far too frequently lately. I'm on my seventh service visit for my Plaid to try and correct issues noted at delivery almost a year ago. Service is so backed up that every time I drop off the car it sits for almost a week before they even start working on it. It's maddening.I am starting to lean towards #1. Tesla customer service is not what it used to be. Don’t know how do I start doing that. Who will take it?
If you don't have the cash saved up for this (most people don't) just take out a loan and put the car up as collateral. I'm assuming you've paid off the car it took me 3 years to pay off mine. A $15k loan with the pink slip of your car covering it any bank should not have a problem doing that. Some banks don't do car loans anymore but they do line of credit and they take collateral for those as well. Also if you have a credit union most all of them will help you out getting a loan especially if you want to take it against the pink slip.
Crap like this happening is why I've got a savings account with the money ready to withdraw if my battery ever takes a crap on me, plan ahead.
This and have an extended warranty from 057Crap like this happening is why I've got a savings account with the money ready to withdraw if my battery ever takes a crap on me, plan ahead.
mine is valued at $35-45k so dropping $15k is acceptable for a new pack. Also since the OP is out of warranty the car has free supercharging and that is worth a crapload of moneyThe problem is sinking $15k into the car probably isn't worth it. What is it worth even with a good battery?
I guess look up what it is worth with a bad battery and what it is worth with a good battery. If the difference isn't $15k or more, dump the car as is.
extended warranties are a great way to part a fool from his moneyThis and have an extended warranty from 057
“HV battery bad shortly after warranty runs out”You should tell us more about your vehicle. That would give us a chance to offer better suggestions.

HVAC drain“HV battery bad shortly after warranty runs out”
It’s pretty obviously a mid-late 2014 S, just like all the other 2012-2014 batteries failing lately.
Many owners of 2012-2014 vehicles, which were working just fine, had their vehicles crippled shortly after the warranty period expired. Did yours happen after an OTA software update?Well, don’t I feel trapped.
All these years driving past high gasoline prices feeling good about saving pennies, now I am hit with 15K bill for HV battery needing replacement. I cannot afford it. Anyone, I need options.
