It's hit or miss.
Mobile techs coming to replace small things like filters/charge ports/etc are great if you are in range.
If you have an accident and are waiting months on a body panel - not great. In this case your insurance probably helps with a rental.
On other warranty type service, being stuck with $100/day Uber credits for a week or two since its near impossible to secure a loaner at the NYC area service centers sucks if you bought a car because you wanted a car, not an Uber. I went into service center in 2018 for an annoying rattle on delivery, ~2019 rear motor go out, and ~2020 HW3 upgrade. Mobile techs did a 2020 charge port repair and 2021 air filter replace/duct cleaning.
I do have some glass work I've been sitting on since 2021 because I don't want to deal with being carless for a couple days.
So lower maintenance than an ICE, but in under 4 years I have have 5-6 service interactions of which 2 were show stoppers.
