I have just recently purchased a used 2019 M3P direct from Tesla. Being a Tesla CPO vehicle it comes with an extra 12 months warranty, but I'm wondering what happens after those 12 months are up.
Can I still use roadside assistance if I'm willing to pay? Obviously I know that I won't get anything for free, but will they still do things like arrange towing or other help if I'm prepared to pay for it?
Is Tesla the only option for repairs or are there "normal" mechanics that also work on Teslas? I've done a quick search for regular mechanics but didn't find anything. If you're a non-warranty job do you get put lower in the priority list? I read a story somewhere on this forum where someone with an out of warranty car was basically told by Tesla to go away and find someone else to do the work. Is this a common (or true) thing?
Basically I guess I'm asking if you can still use all the same systems/procedures/etc as an in-warranty car, but the only difference is that it's no longer free and they'll want money.
