I just bought a 2015 MS 85 from a small independent non-Tesla dealer. They knew very little about EVs because they normally sell trucks, but the dealer was selling the Tesla on behalf of his neighbor. The previous owner didn’t know what free supercharging even was, but I have every indication that it does have SC01. We plugged it in and it said “no recent supercharging” and showed no dollar amounts.
I own the car as of this morning and already sent Tesla my temp registration and license to claim ownership. I received an email saying that my request was received and they’d be reaching out to her. I don’t mind waiting the 3-5 business days as noted.
My questions are:
1. If I “claim ownership” and she confirms it via email, does her SC01 transfer to me? Or does SHE have to initiate the transfer for that to happen?
2. Is it too late for her to initiate the transfer on her end (assuming I can get ahold of her) now that I’ve begun the “claim ownership” process?
Her info is still on the car, so does that mean that she hasn’t removed the car from her account? I don’t want to wipe it until I know whether or not the supercharging transferred. I’m reading that with face to face private sales, this transfer takes minutes. Since I don’t have direct communication with her, I have no idea if she’s even opened the email.
If you have any answers, I’d be grateful!
