1. No insurance ever paid me a single penny for my car.We're talking salvage cars, right? In that case, you've already been paid for your car by the insurance company. Why would Tesla need to buy it back?
Aren't the safety features for charging be a software thing? I'm assuming the computer reads voltage, etc. and communicates with the charger - that's not hardware, that's software making the connection. You can still charge - just have to use Level 2 charging so it's going to take more time but you're not precluded from charging.
2. SC removal in salvage vehicles has nothing to do with safety. As many explained, cosmetic damage can total a Tesla, and that would disable SC, even if the HV system is in perfect condition.
3. I’m precluded from DC charging, which is an essential feature of the car. Unless you want to buy a Tesla just to buy groceries.
