My car is in the Tesla service center for a different problem. But, like in your case, it is my third time in the shop for the same issue in the last 8 months. But, this third time will be the first while out of warranty. I went up the chain of command but they will not budge from their stance that I have to now pay for the repair since I am no longer in warranty—even though it was their incompetence that my issue was not resolved during the first two attempts while in warranty.Just had this happen and tells wants over $500 to fix it.
The worse part is that they already fixed it 2 time prior.
One time under warranty and another time out of "good will".
Now they want me to pay for something they should have fixed the first time.
They tell me that repair work is only warrantied IF I paid for the repair. But, who the hell pays for warranty eligible work while still in warranty?
Screw Tesla. I’m done with their crappy quality cars and service.
