>Don't call someone here a liar unless you have clear and convincing evidence of it. The post in and of itself is clear and convincing evidence. >On a repair invoice, the shop usually lists the cost, then it's paid for by the manufacturer at the bottom. It's all normal accounting for the back office. If you've ever owned a car that had warranty repairs, regardless of make or model, you'd see this. That's not how any of this works for Tesla though, there are no "shops" you take it to, only Tesla service centers do warranty work. The prices listed for warranty work are always "$0.00", never listing how much any of it costs. The post is clearly a LARP.

I admit I'm not a Tesla owner and don't have direct experience, but I do see posts that contradict this assertion: * https://teslamotorsclub.com/tmc/threads/tesla-service-invoice-for-in-warranty-diagnosis.156059/ https://teslamotorsclub.com/tmc/threads/tesla-service-invoic... * https://www.reddit.com/r/TeslaModel3/comments/17wnts6/comment/k9j8cmu/ https://www.reddit.com/r/TeslaModel3/comments/17wnts6/commen...

One of them literally states: "Yes, but usually when I sign something for warranty work. The dollar amt on the paper is $0."

    We are in agreement about the bottom line. Again, the poster did not claim they paid out of pocket for any of this work. The experience of whether they're seeing estimated values (even if not paid) seems to vary by customer.

        I should have been clearer: they didn't claim they paid for the work that was covered under the warranty. Slashed tires and other vandalism and body damage due to accidents obviously aren't covered and those repairs would have to be borne by the customer. (It's also true that those things aren't the results of defects and thus aren't directly Tesla's fault.)
