I know the codes do roll. Not sure if they are car-specific, but they do roll.

Hmm. How does a ranger access the screens if the car is outside cell reception?
I would be very surprised if Tesla released these codes to any third party.
Does the information on the site provide you access to the Service Menus (Access Code)? I would think this would be required for many repairs.
From the french site terms and conditions :
"L’UTILISATION DE CE SITE OU DES INFORMATIONS À DES FINS DE MARKETING EST STRICTEMENT INTERDITE. TOUT TÉLÉCHARGEMENT NON AUTORISÉ EST INTERDIT. S’IL EST
DÉMONTRÉ QUE VOTRE COMPTE AFFICHE UN TRAFIC EXCESSIF, IL SE PEUT QU’IL SOIT DÉSACTIVÉ AUTOMATIQUEMENT ET DE MANIÈRE PERMANENTE PAR TESLA SANS NOTIFICATION PRÉALABLE."
"Using this site for marketing purposes is stricly forbidden. Any unauthorized download is forbidden. If it is proven that your account uses an excessive bandwidth, it could be disabled automatically and permanently by Tesla without notice."
Edit :
On the upper-right corner you can choose region.
US terms and conditions state the same conditions :
"USE OF THIS SITE OR OF THE INFORMATION FOR MARKETING PURPOSES IS STRICTLY
PROHIBITED. UNAUTHORIZED DOWNLOADING IS PROHIBITED. IF YOUR ACCOUNT USAGE
DEMONSTRATES EXCESSIVE TRAFFIC, YOUR ACCOUNT MAY BE AUTOMATICALLY AND
PERMANENTLY DISABLED BY TESLA WITHOUT NOTICE TO YOU. "
yep, Tesla could do it much better..... The only hole I see in the above is what happens when one of us damages a car under warranty, hurts ourselves (getting shocked) or creates an unsafe condition for the car that reflects badly on Tesla? I believe there are enough positives associated with doing this to merit finding solutions for the negatives.

I don't even know if it's that. Until maybe the last two weeks or so, the core components that Tesla wanted to protect as trade secrets weren't even serviceable components. Battery issue? Replace battery. Drivetrain/inverter issue? Replace drivetrain. That doesn't leave a whole lot that Tesla does that every other automaker doesn't do, and severely limits the amount of sensitive data in the service manual.If Tesla is so liability adverse, I'd suggest they stop running an automotive company. There are a lot bigger liability risks than this that they are incurring. I don't think this has anything to do with liability and everything to do with trade secrets.
I wonder if we could convince dealers that fighting Tesla on things like this would be more productive than trying to force them into franchising agreements they don't want. Let's get "Right to Repair" laws passed in every state! Dealers: you make more money off service than sales anyway, so just think of the cash you could make servicing Teslas if such a law were in place?
Aren't dealers usually the side against right to repair? (Hey, further evidence that Tesla is wrong on this!) Dealers would rather not compete with independent shops.
There are dozens of ways for me to kill or severely injure myself with a plain old ICE, including zapping myself with the low-tech 12V battery
