This is not a question of 'if,' it's a question of 'when.' If you haven't changed your 12v battery yet, just wait.What about 'never'? This poll seems much like "When did you stop beating your wife?"
I am totally at a loss at how you could even ask this, if they get charged "at all". If they didn't get recharged at all, they wouldn't last more than a few days, much less years. Of course they get recharged. The car monitors the level of the 12V battery, and when it gets low, it uses a DC to DC electrical circuit in the car to use some energy from the really big main battery pack to refill the 12V. Even when the car is off, that 12V is being used for some minor electronics and is still being monitored, and the car will occasionally top up the 12V battery from the main as needed.Do Tesla's charge the 12v battery at all when driving or when charging?

Then we need an option for "I changed mine at X" years despite having no errors yetThis is not a question of 'if,' it's a question of 'when.' If you haven't changed your 12v battery yet, just wait.
No, cause that would dirty the data. The OP is looking for when batteries fail, or nearly fail by presenting an error message, so that he can preemptively replace the battery before it’s needed. Data for when a battery was changed by choice is not what he is lookin for.Then we need an option for "I changed mine at X" years despite having no errors yet
I'm not there yet but this is for sure my plan as well. I drive ~20k miles a year so I'll be at 2.5 years like you were also.I did mine proactively once I reached 50k miles and it was out of warranty. That occurred almost exactly at 2.5 years. A service reps told me that the most common time for them to fail on the M3 to right at 3 years.
Except that it shows "Oh, my battery lasted X years and was still fine." They're all valid data points.No, cause that would dirty the data.

Where does it say "Oh, my battery lasted X years and was still fine?"Except that it shows "Oh, my battery lasted X years and was still fine." They're all valid data points.
I'd go that route, but I have to drive three hours even for mobile service!I just replaced mine today. I woke up to a few warning messages. I called Tesla service at 7.45 am, I drove down and was serviced in 20 minutes. Painless
