The Tesla website clearly states under the Model 3 that customers have 7 days to try out a Model 3, and if not happy with the product, return it if within 7 days and under something like 1,000km's. The fine print though notes that this policy excludes cars purchased through promotions or 'incentives'. In BC, Tesla takes the position that cars bought under BC's $5k rebate program available for cars under $77k, even though the rebate program allows dealers up to 15 days to process rebates after a sale takes place, which clearly makes provision for trial periods such as the one Tesla advertises. The rebate of course is not a dealer incentive, it's offered by a government agency. Tesla salesmen will probably not tell you about this when you purchase the vehicle, at least I was not told, and didn't find out until I attempted to return the vehicle after 6 days and was told that I could not return it for a refund.
I live in an area without dealers or ability to test drive the vehicle, and found that the standard battery on the 3 was not sufficient for my needs. I was relying on the 7 day policy accordingly.
Any Americans get caught in this little bit of deceptive advertising when trying to return their vehicle?
