- With my Tesla Model Y 15,000 miles out of warranty, what's gone wrong?
What about all the issues since I got my Tesla? Also, how's my battery health at 65,000 miles?
Am I as unlucky as @iowatesla

Bro, your early videos were awesome, now you're just looking for anything, slow recording day. Your cars be hella junky and you got pets. Why blame Tesla when your cars are a mess
@MM-bw1lo cause I like to live life. You can unsubscribe! It won’t hurt my feelings i promise
@@MM-bw1lo Actually I was thinking the same thing. Why even bother about small things when your car will be destroyed by your dogs. I just don't get it. I bought a used Model 3 with some minor imperfections, but I keep it in tip top shape. No eating in my car, only water allowed and no pets.
@@EverydayChris time for rav4 or crv hybrid
Error msg for magback link fyi
that peeling, rattles, gaps etc etc are not issues. Those are Tesla features.
That's Tesla's MOST unique features
lol 😂 man if I read this as Elon that’ll hit me
lol good 1😂
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
😂
We love it when you and Jan makes new videos. We love you guys..all will agree. THANKS CHRIS!!!!!
My fav Tesla tuber! Thanks for convincing me to take the plunge I take delivery Monday on my MYLR and I used your code!
Haha aww thank you!
great info Chris.
When I had my Model 3, the 12V battery gave me an error and needed to be replaced. I since trade that car and got the Model Y :) Best decision for sure. We love this car and I hope I dont have issues with it. Thank you for sharing your experience!
I've had mine for four months. So far, absolutely no issues. Let's hope it stays that way.
in 2.5 years I think I visited tesla service center at least 5 times (actually 10, cause need to drop and then pick up)
Have around 600 miles on my 2024 MYLR so it’s always insightful seeing your real-world experience!
Are you getting worried that this will be your MY’s fate?
6:16 it's probably a relay sound, might be an added safety feature that they added with newer batteries
I’ve had mine for 3 years. Other than the day 1, whole battery needs to be replaced wait a week and we give you a MX loaner, no issues (well my wife totaled it in year 2 and we got the exact same one shortly thereafter, but that’s driver error).
Advice on the fluid same fluid at Costco Walmart target is about. $3 and also the tires were a good choice 👌🏽
Great show Chris. That's a great point that Tesla is bringing back the glory of automobiles made in America!
“So it looked kinda ghetto” 7:25 just made me burst out laughing 😂 been watching a few of your vids lately doing Tesla research and that one sentence is making me finally subscribe. Love your stuff!
Haha thanks
@@EverydayChris I am not a PC person by any means. I thought the word ghetto was totally unnecessary. It is a trigger word, and you know that. You make great Tesla videos, why not stay on that subject. We have a 2021 Model 3, and we still love the car.
Cali slang lol
My 2021 Model Y that I received in November 2020 now has 50,400 miles with only one small problem. The driver side rear door window did not close after opening then closing the door. The puddle light failed. Tesla wanted me to bring it to a service center but I didn't feel like doing that so I bought one online, installed it in 3 minutes and problem fixed. I've had no problems with gaps, paint or anything peeling. Opening shot is on Outlet Center Drive just south of the Tanger Way Superchargers in Barstow.
Wow, I haven't had any of those issues. I did have my wiper arm start hitting my hood one day. It was an easy fix, I had to take care of right away obviously so I just gave it a little bend pressure to fix so it would clear the hood. Service center swapped the part even though I had fixed it. Then they also touched up the scuff with paint. It didn't bother me since you couldn't see it from above and the hood is aluminum anyhow, so no worries about rust. Also, I had a couple little dents in the hood from people closing it improperly, and they popped those dents out for me and it was good as new. You really have to be carefull when closing the frunk, just make sure to do it by the T logo near the front edge.
wow they put a refurbished battery in your car while under warranty. Good to know.
2021 Model Y LR owner with over 51k miles. It has been bulletproof other than a loose rear view mirror that simply needed tightening. No squeaks, rattles or body panel fit and finish issues. We are so happy with the car that we just ordered a 2024 Y Performance model this past weekend. The $7500 tax credit and $1k discount to early Cybertruck reservation holders sealed the deal.
out of curiosity, why would you want 2 model Y?
Personally I would have waited for the refreshed model Y coming next year. There's hardly any differences between a 2021 and brand new Y currently
Tesla customers are RICH. They drive the tesla only 3 years then sell it or trade it in. Not toyota nor honda customers. They keep driving up to 100k miles and still driving. 😂
Chris love your videos. Is that a Hills Tesla wood panel on the dash? I am considering the ebony i have a 2023 MYP so i will wait as it’s still new
Yah! I just took it off. The uv made mine more yellow lol. Lasted a solid 3 years though
Hey Chris, thanks for all the great videos!! Do you have any input on best insurance company to cover Tesla. I have a model Y and I currently have the Tesla insurance but thinking about switching to other.. I’m being told to stick with Tesla but not sure what is the advantage..
It's a known fact, and a lawsuit, that Tesla lies about range estimates. They lie initially about total range, but more so after some use. Company fans needs to ease out on the praises. No car should have so many issues few years in, especially in that price range.
Money talks. As long as they stay afloat with their profit margins, no real change will happen.
Thanks Chris for the video! Being Asian, I can feel more Asian with this car as everyone in the SOCAL area with A+ grades have these lol.
I actually got mine on Saturday bro! MYLR! Love it. Appreciate your videos throughout the years. Been watching for years man. Definitely helped me on my purchase. Keep doing more videos. From your Asian bro, with B+ grades. 1x
Another great video.
For airflow I would try removing that carbon fiber dash piece. I found a lot of those didn’t fit too well and blocked off the vent portion and reduce airflow.
Love Teslas. I’m on my second Tesla now. Just took delivery of it last week. It’s a 2024 Model Y Dual Motor LR. Previous Tesla was a 2019 Model 3 Dual Motor LR. Some advice, make sure to trade it in prior to battery warranty expiring. I drove my model 3 135k miles, when I started getting the same battery issues. It wouldn’t charge past 30%. I brought it in for service and because it was out of warranty they quoted me $12k to swap the battery for a remanufactored one - including labor. Thought about trading it in, but, was only offered $4k trade-in value. Their reasoning was due to the battery issue.
Anyhow, because of the $7.5k federal tax incentive, the $500 NY state tax incentive, the $1k early Cybertruck reservation holder incentive, and the free transfer of FSD to my new model Y, I decided to go ahead with the trade-in. I took delivery of a black on black Dual Motor Model Y LR with the 3rd row seat and FSD was transferred to it.
Anyhow, again, my advice, trade it in before your battery warranty expires. They are great cars and I love them, but, once battery is out of warranty you’re taking a gamble.
The said advice for those who plan to sell their cars and for buyers to be aware of. I hope Tesla can figure something out to significantly lower the price of the replacement battery and have a longer range.
Junk
Hey Chris, great video. Did you notice a difference in estimated range since Tesla updated their EPA estimates?
Not yet! Still variable
This video is great. I have a 23 MYLR. Helps me know what to watch out for. The best part is peanut butter learning nothing, though 😂🎉
Hahah
So do you plan on getting the CyberTruck? How long are you keeping your MY?
Totally agree with the look and purchase of the Magbak rimcase for my Model Y. My rims have taken a beating...I bought the rimcase covers and once you get them on, you can't see the "whoopsie" moments :D
haha yeah covers it really well
Where is the rim protection link?
Thanks
Air vents are obstructed due to the aftermarket carbon fiber dash cover you added, I've seen the button peeling on every used Mercedes I've been in, based on your own numbers, your replacement battery had the same or better range as the original. Draining your battery below 0% will also negatively affect capacity. Fit and finish of newer Model Y vehicles that I've seen look flawless, the build quality has been vastly improved. The Model 3 Highland is also a giant leap forward and I don't see anyone complaining about the build quality of the newer models.
Draining battery to 0% ones in a while is good for LFP batteries like on LR models . Its not recommended only for lithium batteries like on performance models
I drive a lot about 45K miles per year kind of iffy on a Tesla if it would last once I hit like 120k mile mark
2 things I heard in the beginning that are misrepresented. Tesla tax credits ended at 2019 and only restarted in 2024. It is impossible for anyone who owns a model y to get a credit unless it’s brand new
2nd, just because you don’t have to stop for oil changes, you still have to get the tires rotated. Most owners forget this because they believe since maintenance is minimal, they don’t have to do any, this why the tires wear out quicker
I don't think the estimated mileage accounts for any additional weight, like passengers that would lower the range.
I wanted to get a Tesla but they just haven't come far enough with the quality of their vehicles. Yes, the charging network is top notch but all the small problems just aren't worth the headache as they add up over time. I went with an ICE Lexus and I'll never have to worry about all the small annoying issues that take away from the experience of owning a luxury vehicle. It just made more sense for me, especially since I live in an apartment, work from home and don't put many miles on my car. In the future, I'll consider looking at Tesla again, or possibly another brand. Keep up the great content!
What is the link for rim protectors?
Is the ninja door opening option still works for your car?
I have a 9 year old Acura RDX with 85K miles. No issues and still a great car. I’d like a Tesla but wonder how it’ll hold up over a decade plus.
Knock on wood I’ve had my 2022 Model 3 Dual Motor for about 3 years now this December. No issues and took my car on road trips as you and your family done. Self driving is a must and I love it. Only maintenance is buying tires $1300. I have the ceramic paint and PPR. I have 43000 miles and hopefully the car will last me for years to come. Man I hope everything works for your car. That’s a lot to go through. I would be frustrated
chris do you a favor and get the pirelli tires they are way better than the ones you have... if you are interested let me know i will tell which ones i have
Tesla service department charge very high price. For the money saved on has, the car lost more in depreciation.
My Kia e-Niro had to go back to the dealer a few months in to have the washer fluid pump for the rear window replaced. It took a day to arrive and half an hour to replace. I'm now 60,000 miles further on and NOTHING has gone wrong since. It is having a new set of tyres this week, they last for 30,000 front and 60,000 rear. I love the idea of a Tesla but I really don't think I could live with the lack of reliability; give me a Kia any day!
Thank you for the honest review. I am one of those potential EV buyers that are still on the fence. Maybe I’ll pull the trigger after I pay off my recently installed Tesla solar panels.
be careful, it will ruin gas cars for you
Wow you have had some bad luck. 63,000 miles here, no issues. I had them fix a rattle coming from the rear view mirror for free
Same experience here with MYLR 2020. I spent about $10k on repairs out of warranty. Now, I have a loud gassing noise inside the car. I can’t drive it. Once it gets repaired for whatever the cost it will end up costing me, I’m going to sell it and never get another Tesla. I’m going back to ICE.
You are better off buying a PHEV from Toyota and Lexus. Those are bullet proof in reliability and 40+ miles on EV for your daily commute. Yes you save on gas on a Tesla, but higher insurance cost and more frequent tire change will offset some of the maintenance and gas cost. There is not much to maintain on a hybrid other than standard yearly oil change.
What do you think is causing popping sound while supercharging?
Heat!
This could be a long shot, but it's possible you have air bubbles in your batteries cooling loop.
A couple of my home built liquid cooled PC's made similar noises when I had too many air bubbles in the water loop.
It only made the popping noises after I had been gaming for several minutes with the video card and CPU running at full turbo.
It never made the popping noises when doing normal PC stuff and not heating up the system.
It's possible you could have a similar issue with your cooling system loop.
7:28 Lmfao that caught me off guard
One thing that I find annoying is that my Tesla will start preconditioning for a charge 90 minutes prior to my reaching a charging station (I use the Tesla map feature to schedule a charge on long trips). I find that the preconditioning really drains the battery although when we finally do reach the supercharger, it does charge fairly quickly in cold weather. I just wish it would wait until 30 minutes or so prior to reaching the supercharger to start preconditioning.
What does it say on the energy graph?? Mine says maybe 2 percent loss due to preconditioning
@@EverydayChris, Actually, I haven't used the graph. What I do is calculate based on percent charge and how many miles driven. So prior to charging (while it's preconditioning), I calculated I was getting 1.8 miles per one percent. After charging, I was getting about 2.2 miles per one percent. Not sure how that compares to your 2 percent loss, but it would appear I am doing a lot worse than that.
what about the new model 3
Wow! You haven't been too lucky!
I have only had good experiences with my Tesla. The only time I had an issue was when the 12V batterie gave me a sign on the screen, I was on my way to work, I called Tesla service center, fortunately was on my way so I stopped by, they fixed right away at no cost. Mine is a 21 Tesla model 3 48K miles. I love it. The only expense was to replace the tires 2K miles ago. Not bad for an electric car.
Let me just say, as not an Asian person who has owned many Japanese cars, and a few Korean ones... Tesla isn't even in the same league, and they build them to be disposable. That's why they hold their value, the way a rock tossed out of an airplane holds its altitude.
Magbak charges $35 (see the policy) and also an $11 fee to restock and for administrative fees on returns of cheap plastic rim protectors. Ripoff.
I have heard that tesla will give an update that will add battery age into his range calculations.
Can you make an update video on this issue when you get that update?
Yes! I heard about that and will
@@EverydayChris looking forward to it
My son has a 2019 Model 3 which has been perfect for 74,000 miles. He just bought his wife a new model Y performance. Will keep you updated!! It's Blue BTW!
Wow how cool!
my m3 battery went out after only 3 yeas ! Can relate !!!!!
Sheesh battery replacement out of warranty is a tough pill to swallow. If that happend at 30k miles then what about 100k miles. Especially a refurbished battery. How have they not figured out how to reduce the cost? Plus that’s so scammy that they didn’t provide a loner especially under warranty.
My model Y is 3 years old. Never once had an issue
Survivor bias is a real thing.
I have a 2021 MY at 92k miles and have had zero issues. Sounds like you got a bad one 😖
Man
Not a defect, it is a no cost feature...
Hows he doing ? I got tyroid cancer too.
Great video but We have to talk about you overpaying on wiper fluid. It's under $3 everywhere.
I'm at 34,000 on my 2022 Y LR. Zero issues.
Are you going to the X takeover event?
But I can buy it and ship it while on the toilet
And yes lol
Would you recommend purchasing the extended warranty?
Still on the fence. Nothing I’ve and done is more than 2k. I think a new seat is 2k,
ALWAYS purchase an extended warranty!
Parts costs are through the roof! Labor is typically $120/Hour now for mechanics.
Just ONE major part going bad can cost you that much!
I have owned five new cars over my lifetime so far. Four out of five have had repairs that easily exceeded the extended warranty cost!
Spend the money up front so you know you're covered IMHO! 👍
@7:12 whats that next to the wheel? LOL
dude always got some sort of bandaid on him.. lol are you okay man!?
Hahaaha I’m clumsy
Even with free supercharging, I plan to go back to ice for my next car
Same
Why?
troll
I doubt you have free supercharging or an electric vehicle. However, I am confident that if you were offered free fuel for the most unreliable ICE car you would take it up and not moan about it!
@@whoneedsfacts really depends, for me it’s about time. Just my hourly, I make more than the free supercharging is worth at this point. And yes I have a 2018 with free supercharging. It’s been great but the time spent has only gotten worse with degradation and my higher travel distance per day
What's the warranty for the rebuild battery pack? Is it still only up to 120k miles?
120,000 ends in 2029
Tesla owner so happy with their car able to reach 100k. Toyota owners are so unhappy if their car have any issue before 200k. Lesson learn, To be happy. All you need is to set your standard to low junk. Then you'll e a very happy man
New Toyotas have lots of problems I would go with Honda instead I get alot of toyotas in my shop
Toyota was once a young company as well
Some states got some weird Tesla services which questions their character. if you report them, Tesla will indeed make sure they do their job. My friend called me through facetime an I was at work, rep refused selling parts to my friend. Wooo that changed when I asked for the manager over the phone. Build quality issues, no debate here. the 21-22 models had massive quality issues. it's better now. they recognized the issue.
Battery swapping is great idea
Oh boy
As of today, you can get a rear wheel drive Model Y for $40,040 from the local inventory or a long range for $45,590.
As much fun as the Tesla's are, if you depend on your car every day, get a Toyota or Honda. The repairs are usually not bank breakers and you will be back on the road in no time. When I do have excess cash, I will have a shiny new Model X, every 3 to 4 years.
Bro you’re hilarious
I thought you are not suppose to drain your battery to 0%?
The best part about a Tesla is that I never have to be forced to buy one.
Mam the resale value of his car is going to tank....
Buy the dip now and thank me later
I'm really starting to believe that car manufacturers should be liable for major issues for the life of the vehicle. Regular everyday maintenance issues obviously should be covered by the customer.
"We havily rely on Tesla Auto Pilot!". What did you do before Tesla? Why do you rely so much on this feature? So many questions...😂
Drove with my eyes closed, duh. Haha
My husband likes to drive with autopilot on, even in town .. and we don't even have the enhanced version. He knows all the spots where it's likely to give him trouble and he seems to enjoy figuring out how to outsmart it. I have a friend whose husband does this, too. Must be a guy thing.
@@avwill as a car guy and petrol head, I am on the oposite side. I like to have full control of the car, including manual shift. I still apreciate ABS, ESP, Cruise Control, parking sensors, dead angle assist, fixed camera warnings 😁. Anything beyond that and will start diminish, hinder and degrade my skills. Like the smartphone agenda to the ability to remember phone numbers....
haha same here! @@avwill
My 2018 tesla model 3 sucks after the warranty! Everything is going wrong with it. New pcs $1500, 2 new 12v batteries$120 each, front passenger seat sensor warning and heater issue $1,000, new charge port and charging port wiring harness $600, new charging cable. Wtf tesla!
Same experience here with MYLR 2020. I spent about $10k on repairs out of warranty. Now, I have a loud gassing noise inside the car I can’t drive it. Once it’s gets repaired for whatever the cost it will end up costing me, I’m gonna sell it and never getting another Tesla.
If I had that many issues it would be traded in at the Toyota dealership asap.
New model Toyotas have alot of problems I get them in my shop alot now
Lots of small prints
my ice is paid for a 1997 Mustang still like new ( wonder if an EV will last 20 plus years hmmm ,, I spend 200 a month on gas and 50 a month on insurance ,, If I were to Buy an EV where do I save 600 a month payment plus 400 full coverage and might last 10 years if you are lucky insanity
and they last alot longer
Bro, I'm Asian, and all I see us drive is Tesla. It's so cliché at this point. 😅
I’m Asian and I’m looking at Toyota and Lexus for our next car. Haha. Im just checking out EVs see if it could be an option. Sorry about your kid condition 😢
So you pay 60,000 for the car then after 4 yrs you pay another 🤔 so I'll keep my Toyota. ❤
I brought ford extended warranty on my Mach-e 😉
Wow I get 344 miles on my pack @100% Your pack sucks 😂
No way that's crazy
I love Tesla but i wait when all gas station stop producing gas
No time soon , they just built 5 new gas stations in my area in California
ev save money or not until u sold the car.
EV Base have better 21 rim protecters
if civic would get cruise control tesla like, - my next car without doubt will be civic :). other than that? EV probably should be 150 miles for city rides. that's it.
yup never getting an electric car lol
Be careful guys. I have two teslas. Never keep them out of warranty. People are doing this for CZcams videos. It’s not smart.
You traded a Lexus for that Pos lmaooooooo.
So much for QA at Tesla. 🤦🏻♂️
Some people whine about anything and everything. They fail to realise the big picture of life . This is just one example of superficial thinking.
I don’t know why people risk buying electric cars right now, especially out of warranty, I have a 2003 Honda Pilot with 263k miles and a 2002 Toyota Land Cruiser with 235k miles, neither have ever had a repair that cost more than $300, no 20k battery, no creeks or rattles, just reliability and high gas prices lol still wouldn’t trade them in for an electric car
So your parents were correct?
I really hope this is anecdotal but I don’t know why anyone would buy a Tesla with all these issues
You had me at being Asian, it wasn't just you. Latinos know that Toyota, Honda are reliable. Unlike a brand-new GMC Jimmy/Blazer from the 90s which my dad was so proud to buy, but alas was a money pit. So yeah, the stereotype is still strong in me when it comes to purchasing cars. I've only had Acura's in the household until I got tired of the Costco line.
ProTip: Stop saying "Ghetto" in your vids, seriously.
Seee.
