When I sold my Model S, Tesla wanted me to acknowledge if it was a private sale or to a 3rd party. I called and ask why the question on the email. They mention that 3party the warranty on the car was not transferable from any dealer. Now, this was over a year ago and things do change. Who was the rental company. Heck contact them and see if there are any Tesla deals. Why pay for the dealer markup. Throwing around "It's a rental" thing I find odd, especially it being a tesla.
I wouldn't be too concerned about the rental aspect as it will have warranty. However I would be very worried if it was built before Mid March 2018 as it will have MCU1 and already be outdated. Also no autopilot normally on Enterprise cars so that's another added cost.
Yes, never get an MCU1 car. No Netflix so no longer useful for transportation. /s
But, on a serious note, MCU1 does have a wear issue that could cost you $1300-$2200. Do take that into consideration.
no Netflix is a symptom of the problem. Netflix runs great on mcu1, but needs the updated browser that they added to mcu2 and not mcu1 so it isn't included. Tesla could have added the browser to mcu1 and all model S would have Netflix... But they didn't.Yes, never get an MCU1 car. No Netflix so no longer useful for transportation. /s

Simple: Nope, wouldn't touch it. With any used car there's a risk depending upon the type of driver. With a rental, the risk goes up because of the number of people who have driven it, and to be fair, people don't take care of rentals like they do with their own cars. The wear and tear on rentals I've had seems to be higher than usual. I've driven some with as little as 10K on the odometer and it feels like it's been driven for 100K. I'd wonder what kind of detailing and maintenance they would do to make it appealing..
New to the forum! Been reading for about a week as I’ve been thinking about getting a Tesla (currently drive a Leaf). this is my first post!
I saw a 2018 Model S 75D with about 20K miles on it the other day at a dealership and test drove it. The salesperson said it had been a rental.
I have typically shied away from cars that had been rentals. The salesperson gave me a spiel about how rentals were the best cars to buy because they were so well maintained. Not sure I believe that.
Would you have concerns buying a Model S that had been a rental?
thank you!!
I have a P85 D now as a loaner from Tesla while my X gets maintenance. It has 69,000 miles on it and it is trashed in so many ways.
69k?!? It had to be a trade-in that was already in bad shape so they just sent it straight to the loaner fleet. Some of tesla's loaners are in worse shape than Enterprise rental tesla's...I'm sure of it.
