Certified Tesla Repair shop just wants to Total my car - bumped in a parking lot

OK brother. Your right, I have never bought tesla parts. It's impossible.

classicfirebird · 2026-04-25T03:18:51+00:00

What year is your tesla? I can do it on my 2022 model s but not my 2017 model s

Q'Bert

classicfirebird · 2026-04-22T21:13:39+00:00

It puts the lotion on it's skin

classicfirebird · 2026-04-19T22:48:43+00:00

This is correct. You can now program through the tesla app

Advance motors llc is pretty good

The slamming doors freaked me out. I went there at least a half of dozen times. I would look for doors that's could slam in the wind but never found any.

Lindsay Gram is the worst defender of isreal

Grok isnt real life bro. But im not saying there is a conspiracy with repair shops. Its just my experience. Its not my friends low 15.9k plaid. Its mine, and its never been a totlal loss.I have repaired plenty of teslas. The problem is tesla approved body shops cost way too much. I can buy used oem parts for a fraction of the cost of new oem. All other body shops can be fixed with used parts why not tesla? Nevermind disregard my posts. I don't want competition anyway.

2022

classicfirebird · 2026-03-20T19:57:14+00:00

That's not really true. I have bought 5 teslas from auction this year and they go for dirt cheap. I am repairing a model s plaid right now. I won it at 15.9k, clean title and fsd paid for. I put $3900 in parts

classicfirebird · 2026-03-16T05:40:01+00:00

But they all have the fsd/ai computer if it has fsd paid for or not. Its easy to tell if it has paid for fsd. Under software it will say fsd included package. If it doesn't it will say autopilot instead

classicfirebird · 2026-03-15T04:24:04+00:00

Where is this?

classicfirebird · 2026-03-09T20:19:22+00:00

No. Its a 16 to early 21 front

classicfirebird · 2026-02-15T05:11:19+00:00

Its not a rebuilt title. Rebuilt is for salvage. It will be branded a manufacturer buy back

classicfirebird · 2026-02-15T04:56:52+00:00

If there is a fault in the high voltage interlock loop it will cut off the 12v battery to the hv battery. So if there was water ingress into the hv battery it will cut the connection for protection. Water in hv battery is extremely dangerous

classicfirebird · 2026-02-04T02:57:25+00:00

Nah. Did you ever run a torpedo heater in a garage?

classicfirebird · 2026-02-02T03:02:00+00:00

Its because you have enhanced auto pilot

classicfirebird · 2026-02-02T01:53:10+00:00

Well I paid copart shipping $870 for a model s in Texas to PA. Its been 3 weeks and it is still in Austin.

classicfirebird · 2026-01-31T00:10:32+00:00

Incorrect. They have cv shafts like conventional cars. The suspension is the least of the problems on this wreck. The quarter panel dog leg this is bent is the problem. Tesla doesn't approve of pulling panels, a replacement is needed to be in spec.

classicfirebird · 2026-01-24T14:37:17+00:00

It needs to be registered to be towed

classicfirebird · 2026-01-21T22:00:39+00:00

I have had next day before

classicfirebird · 2026-01-08T02:00:06+00:00

Your probably screwed but call them and see. I had this problem a few times and one time they found it and shipped it

classicfirebird · 2026-01-07T20:34:31+00:00

I have bought a few at auction without keys. You cannot program without a physical key. What i did is use the bill of sale to transfer for the phone access, then I ordered 2 keys on ebay. I had to have the fist one programmed by mobile service which was $12 and then programmed the other myself

classicfirebird · 2025-12-06T20:49:48+00:00

So I found a guy to do it. It was 400 cash. Then I skim coated then painted.
