The Points With Tesla’s 2012 Mannequin S – Restore

[ad_1]

Our Jan 2013 built Model S (vin #~6000) has had one motor “replacement”. Tesla chose to replace with a refurbished motor from a similar car with new bearings, and took my motor back to factory to replace it’s bearings and put that motor in someone else’s Model S. It was for convenience of owners and Tesla and it worked out perfectly, our Motor is SILENT after 150,000km.

Our original battery reported 96% capacity until recently, when a firmware update changed that to 92% original but now we get full regen at 100%, which means Tesla is reserving a bit more of a buffer, which is fine with me, I charge to 100% all the time and never worry.

We’ve had a cabin heater, battery heater core, coolant pump and air suspension repairs and a few door handles, all under warranty.

Total out of pocket repairs $300 CAD for a 9 year old car. Sure, tires are thousands $, but all cars need those.
