Hi all,
Someone ran into the side of my 3 back in August, 2 weeks after I got it (safe to say I was devastated). Went through insurance painfully and had repair authorised October, about 10k worth of damage with 2 door panels needing to be replaced.
It has now been 3 months since the authorisation, and the dealer (a well reputed one in Perth) still has absolutely no estimate on delivery times for the door panels required. They say it is on back order and they don’t know when tesla will send more parts to them. I called tesla directly and it’s the same story, there is nothing they say they can do.
I can understand the cause for shipping delays, but it’s getting really frustrating driving around with no idea when my car will be fixed. I thought that at the very least, I could be given a general timeframe on when I may expect the parts, not sure if I’m being too picky here.
Has anyone else had this experience or is currently dealing with something similar? Any advice is appreciated, thankfully it’s still drivable but it’s a bit disheartening seeing my 3 like this everyday.
