Evening all,
So I had a little incident with my month old model 3 and a dog off it’s lead. Dog came off much worse than the car, but still the insurance provided repair agents still quoted over £3000 to do the repairs.
They finally collected the car a month to the day after the incident, having waited for parts and arranging to transport the car 270 miles to their facility (on quite possibly the shonkiest transporter I’ve ever seen). I’ve since been told they’ll call me next Friday 5th March) to let me know when the rest of the parts that they’ve now ordered will arrive - assuming they arrive by 12th and I get the car back by 19th it will have been off the road for over 2 of the 3 months I’ve owed it!
I’ve been made to sign out of the tesla app, but still have my teslamate running so I can keep tabs on the car - besides the full throttle runs in their car park, they also haven’t locked the car once since it’s been in their possession - since Thursday they haven’t moved the car, but it’s been left outside, unlocked, online and with a frunk open notification active. The battery finally hit 0% this afternoon.
So the question:
a) has anyone had a similar experience with this or another bodyshop being so reckless with customer vehicles?
b) will the draining of the battery cause any significant degradation?
