I have had my Model S 85D since March of 2016. It has 53,000 miles on it, so the basic warranty is up and I did not get the extended. The 2nd door handle just went (passenger side front) so every time someone wants to get in the car, I have to get out and let them in or do gymnastics to stretch across the front to open the door. Last time it was driver’s door, which was much worse.
Anyway, just tried to schedule an appointment with their new “easy” app feature, and it gave me a first appointment of April 12th and wants me to go to a service center that is twice as far and more than 4 times the travel time due to the traffic (closest one for me is Syosset, NY, and it gave me an appointment in Brooklyn). In the repair world, this is an easy one, with probably less than an hour of labor.
I keep my cars a long time, and am probably only halfway through my use of this one, so I expect minor issues here an there. Is this the future of Tesla service? If it is, they will lose a customer.
