I’m looking to purchase a 2016 Tesla Model X 75D.
It has 61k miles
Never been in an accident
Clean title
However, when I ran a car fax on it, the report showed it was a branded title due to a buy back. He ensured me that the carfax is incorrect and he has a clean title in hand.
I called the salesman and he said a couple of things that I do not understand. I’m hopeful someone who has experience with Tesla’s can help me.
1) He said that mileage doesn’t matter on Tesla’s.
2) He said the only maintenance I will ever need done to the car is changing a $200, 250v battery for the computer every 5 years and changing the tires when they are due to be changed.
3) He said that even though this car has a clean title, a buy-back branded title means nothing with Tesla’s. He explained that basically a person can report a problem with the car and Tesla buys it back, repairs the problem and then it’s back on the market at a very discounted price with a branded title. The car is good as new.
4) He also said the window seals will crack and break, but it doesn’t leak.
Can anyone support or refute these claims?
Thank you in advance!
