‘21 Tesla Model Y, I’ve needed an air filter change with coil cleaning, another coil cleaning I did myself. Set of tires at 25k miles. Currently at 30 k miles and only other thing I’ve done is refill windshield washer fluid.
I’ve changed the oil in my Tesla zero times in 15k miles, but I did have to replace the windshield wipers, and cabin air filter.
My model 3 took some serious hits from rocks with no crack.
For me it is incredibly durable. There are hundred of chips on my Model 3 windshield with 53k miles due to freeway driving most of the time, but it is still not cracked yet.
They have to use Tesla OEM so it’s going to be a bit.
Had once replaced the windshield on my previous car (Toyota) during 9 years and 120k miles. But with MY23 it’s already twice in 6 months. Been living in same area with similar driving routes and driving habits. Quality of windshield that tesla is using is certainly questionable.
The blind spots are massive on the Y compared to the 3. I'm really surprised Tesla didn't do more about this before release. Yes, the camera view when you use the indicators is good, but the mirrors should be better.
Had Tesla replace my wipers during a service visit for the same reason. They were horrible compared to my other cars. Obviously, replaced with the same garbage. So I thoroughly cleaned the windshield, which helped, but it seems once it gets grime on it, the wipers performance goes down.
Not a surprise considered how shit M3/Y wipers are. Not even the auto wipe which is atrocious but also all the wiper fluid gets shot out to the left and wasted and doesn’t actually clean and then the driver window gets streaks of fluid
You’ll look like a total idiot when the wiper blades turn on. Happens to me almost daily in my M3.
