Absolutely incredible customer service experience with Tesla's Rockville Service Center as well as the roadside service rep I spoke with. This car has been fantastic over the last year or so. - Krátké a kreslené filmy
Thanks for sharing the info. It is great to know that the symptoms was consistent with 12V battery been drained.
Glad to hear it's been fixed. And wow no other dealer/ service center can replace a motor/ engine in 1 Day. Not toyota, nissa, chevy, bmw, Mercedes, need I say more. #TESLA
Love the vids!
Your vids helped decision to get mine! Picked up my 2016 90D. Love it !
I washed my car and the drive unit went bad. My replacement was 6k. While still under warranty Aug 2019 my drive unit was replaced for free. Yesterday needs replaced again. That's 3 years Tesla!!
Glad to see you got your baby back Kyle
Most but not all people who are Tesla haters
Have never driven one. I was one of them
Until I drove my cousins and was hooked
Do you have Tesla mobile service in your area
The screen bubbles and sun roof seems
Like a job for the mobile service guys.
Happy for you bro
Telsa's ROCK!!!! I had a blown engine in my Cadillac 3 years ago. It took 4 days to get it swapped out. An engine done within 24 hours with a Telsa???? That is the GOLD standard. I'm finally going to throw in the towel. My next car (this summer) will be a Tesla because I'm tired of the endless maintenance and gas costs. Thanks for sharing.
@@CarsAndKyleVlogs - Of course I meant to say motor not engine because Teslas don't have engines. 😝
What kind of warranty they gave you in the new drive unit?
“What does that thing accelerate like 4.7... years?! “ 😭🤣
Same happened to me after a hand car wash. So it was the car wash that killed your drive unit? Won't you be worried that water is still getting into drive units. Has a water ingress issue? Perhaps when using a water jet under the wheel arches?
We might be best friends after this. Car shield will warranty our cars fully except for the drive train and battery for like 190-200 a month.
My 2012 model S had its drive unit replaced around 50,000 miles before I took owner ship. When I got it, the new drive unit only had about 20,000 miles. Hope it holds up! I don’t want to pay $10,000 no thanks!
CarsAndKyle I’ve got the rest of this year and next year. Keeping my fingers crossed lol 😂
CarsAndKyle I bet it is!
It's all about how your treat the car if your constantly beating on it it's not going to last. Just like a gas motor it can blow up anytime , piston, rod or head gasket.
Tesla is a great car. As long as the drive unit and battery are under warranty. They don’t do unlimited warranty anymore
I just bought a January 2019 model S with unlimited battery and drive train warranty until January 2027. When that runs out I’m selling car
You don’t want to own a Tesla that’s out of warranty. That could be extremely expensive
So Kyle... It's now 2023 and the 2013 Model S 85P I just bought with 39,200 miles is out of warranty. I want to be prepared in case the motor fails. Did it make any noise or have any odd behavior before it needed to be replaced? It sounds like you just ended up going out one day to drive it and it wouldn't work? I did just get out of a Toyota Avalon Hybrid which was a very nice car but still uses gas, and is nowhere near as fast as these P85s. I'm just hoping I made the right decision and don't have to worry about replacing my motor.
Do Yk how much a drive unit replacement costs these days ?
What year would you suggest I purchase to avoid the drive unit and battery issue?
I've been keep track of the Tesla vehicles (mind you I don't have one of my own yet) but if I were to get a used one I would start with 2015. It seems that year was when they start getting things right with the overall quality of the vehicles. I am with @carsandkyle the newer the vehicle the better insulated you are with the warranty.
It's not a specific yr. It's kinda like when an engine has a misfire from the vehicle just being used for 3 yrs. The misfire could be the injector, spark plug, coil or worst case you been beating up on the car and damages a piston, or piston ring.
It also comes down to the driver b/c if your constantly smashing the accelerator pedal it puts a lot of strain on and motor or engine. No different then a gas motor.
@@robertoangel4419 yea and I'm the type to be doing just that..I'm coming from a dodge charger 392 hemi so I love speed..lol
People are selling a P85 Motors on eBay and Craigslist working condition for $3,700.00
CarsAndKyle Tesla will install any working non defective used ORM tesla part you bring in.
Lol Kyle. God dangit Tesla
Try sitting on your hands for the next video. If you are using sign language it isn't working. Otherwise, informative video.
If your vehicle was still under warranty, why did the not give you a loaner vehicle?
@@CarsAndKyleVlogs Thank you.
BTW, I bought a Model3 mack in March 2019. Love it. Was looking at a Used Model S but at the time a 2016-217 were just too high priced for me.
Looks likethere has been some downward price adjustments , just too late for me.
Can I ask what you paid for yours, Kyle? And what would it cost in today’s market?
Really like the videos but (not to be rude) your constant hand movements are very distracting. Glad you got your car back.
Mines is doing same 10k bill need it replaced
I’m so sorry. The cars are fun though! Hope everything works out
@@CarsAndKyleVlogs only 3 weeks out of warranty tesla customer service will be its demise🤐
Indeed 😒
Tesla charged me 15 k for second drive unit under 100k mikes
If it was over 8 years old the warranty doesn’t apply anymore.
“I don’t mind paying for new drive units every few years for $15k because I’m saving $2k on gas per year!”
