We bought a 2013 Tesla Model S 85 (CPO) a couple of years ago and at that time, fortunately, they were doing both cosmetic and mechanical refurbishment. Fast forward to today and we are taking delivery of a 2016 Tesla Model X 75D (CPO) and I want to make sure I'm not missing anything to check. Please feel free to make any suggestions on what else I should check, aside from making sure everything is functional and in good shape.
1. There are some light rock chips on the hood and when I went to the Service Center to take a sneak peak earlier this week I ran into someone on the Delivery Team and he said that because it's near the end of quarter they will likely fix them to make sure the delivery happens. This is unexpected and we'll see if it actually happens. He made it sound like we can add fixing them to the "Due Bill" (or something like that) fairly easily.
2. The driver's side FWD doesn't seem to be perfectly aligned near the top of the closed door. It's very close, though. The passenger's side does seem to be perfect. This doesn't seem to be a huge issue to me.
3. All of the 22" tires and wheels seem to be in very good shape, almost brand new.
4. How long will it take to add to my existing Tesla app? (With my last CPO purchase, it was added later that day!)
5. It has the Accessory Hitch and I'm hoping it has Tow Mode. (I'm not counting on it but it would be NICE.)
6. Have the FWD switches been upgraded to the latest version?
7. I'll check for the "shutter" on our first drive. (I am aware of the recent TSB regarding the "dreaded shutter" that it might have.)
8. What annual services have been performed? (I'll likely have to get this from the Service department.)
9. When was brake fluid checked/replaced? (I'll likely have to get this from the Service department.)
10. Has the A/C disiccant bag been replaced? (I'll likely have to get this from the Service department.)
11. Has the cabin filter been replaced? (I'll likely have to get this from the Service department.)
12. Have the wiper blades been replaced? (I'll likely have to get this from the Service department.)
13. Has the 12V battery been replaced? (I'll likely have to get this from the Service department.)
14. Have the battery and/or drive unit been replaced? (I'll likely have to get this from the Service department.)
15. What warranty work has been done on it so far? (I'll likely have to get this from the Service department.)
Thanks!
