160,000 miles. 5 sets of tires, 12V battery, two sets of wipers, and $120 for a squeaky front control arm.
Extremely low maintenance.
I guess that can be true, though my 2018 Model 3 (one of the early ones) has 150,000 miles and had 1 minor issue (bushings on lower control arms) that cost about $200 to replace, and a $70 underbody shield that needed replaced. That's it, which compared to all my gas cars of the past is basically no maintenance or repairs.
the only repair (covered under warranty) for the teslas has been a cracked control arm. Software has been pretty flawless. Drive train has been amazing. No battery issues (not even 12v for me). Everything just works over more total kms than i put on my jeeps.
There’s definitely a difference in the Moog CK vs RK parts. CK is their premium line. I put CK control arms on the wife’s Yukon and they have been fine.
Lower control arms. 12v battery. Charge door. Airbag sensor. Trunk cam harness under warranty.
Control arms will need replacing in tesla vehicles, and since the car will be past warranty no reason not to go with third party parts that are thick enough for the vehicle's mass.
I had upper control arms replaced on my Model X 3 times in 3 years under warranty.
Be sure to tell them that you hear grinding and clunking sounds when you turn the wheel so they fix your failing control arms. It’s a terrible design and they all seem to fail.
I ordered “Moog” upper and lower control arms to rebuilt the whole front end of my grand marquis. They all came in Moog boxes but they looked different. Only 1 of 4 control arms looked legit from the pics I sent to the “Moog” rep.
I had a Tesla Model X for two years. It was constantly in for service. Broken AC, sensors, control arms, etc. The screen would reset while driving.
