How does this work in germany?
In a neighboring country I take my car to the service to do a quick maintenance + the official yearly thing.
This means break pads and any issues are fixed before and car would never fail an official check.
Is that not a thing for tesla?, is the driver supposed to know when to replace everything?, are sensors that good?
- Hamuko 3y agoIsn't the "no services" one of the things that all Tesla owners advertise?

- junofan 3y agoThat article relates to self-driving, not faults. Reliability is a big enough topic that it’s hard to read this comment as much more than cruelty.
- lnxg33k1 3y agoBut seems like the attitude towards freedom of speech applies also to other parts of the marketing strategy of Tesla, no? Reliability could be a bigger argument, but let's be honest at a certain point, the Tesla price point should at least make it score higher than low end cars in the linked chart, don't you think so?
- hef19898 3y agoOh yes, maintenance on condition! Great concept, but it requires regular inspection to appraise said condition. Otherwise it is just "until failure".
- fabian2k 3y agoNo experience with Tesla specifically , but usually the manufacturer has recommended checks at certain amounts driven or a certain time elapsed. Some people follow those and have their cars checked at those points, others don't. But according to this article Tesla has no such system. Then there is the TÜV, which is a mandatory check for all cars usually every 2 years. So this seems pretty similar to your country, just with different intervals.
- t0mas88 3y agoTesla's roll out of the factory with things out of limits all the time. Headlights being a big thing, not adjusted within the rules for the TUV (or Dutch APK) even when the car is brand new.
- ketkev 3y agoI swear that most model 3's I see in Europe have their headlights adjusted up so high that they're still looking for German aircraft. It's blinding.
- t0mas88 3y agoIndeed, they seem all misaligned. Often one light is used for aircraft defence and the other to shine directly into potholes. Quality assurance after assembly is apparently not a thing for Tesla.
- mianos 3y agoSame down here in Australia. Every blinding incoming car is a Dodge Ram size truck where the lights are so high blind you from above and model Ys where they seem to point up into incoming cars.
- lifestyleguru 3y agoThe LED revolution of car headlights is a damnation.
- martin8412 3y agoIt doesn't work. Tesla Model 3 is the car model that fails most often for it's age. Model Y has not been on the German roads in high amounts for enough years yet, but I fully expect it to overtake Model 3. Model 3 fails because of rusted brakes and failing suspension for example. https://www.carscoops.com/2023/12/tesla-model-3-ranked-last-in-german-tuv-reliability-report/ https://www.carscoops.com/2023/12/tesla-model-3-ranked-last-...
