I don't know and frankly I'm not sure that Tesla does either yet.
But what are they going to do? Carry around whole drivetrains in their "Service Car Model X" that comes to your house? Even if so, you need specialized equipment, hydraulic lifts etc. to repair things like that.
So what will their options be if they do not have their own (service) shops anymore except than picking up your car, bringing it to _whereever_ and fixing it there?
I don't see any and I think this can and will probably fire back on them.
- linuxftw 8y agoExactly, I agree. It's going to be a boondoggle.
- martin_a 8y ago> boondoggle Learned a new word today. Thanks. :-D

- martin_a 8y agoAmazing! :-D
- zaroth 8y agoYou just assume Tesla has no way to provide service to hundreds of thousands of cars they have on the road? This is just FUD... They are not closing their service centers. They are closing the showrooms. They are totally separate locations. The showrooms are usually located in malls.
- linuxftw 8y agoWhere's the proof the have the capacity to service 100's of thousands of cars? Do they have a service center in every state? Every major metro area? Currently, they don't have a facility in every state. I think people are right to be skeptical, buying an automobile is a major financial decision for most folks, and warranty/repair is a very important part of that story.
