In this video, I'll take you through the step-by-step process of getting a salvage Tesla back on the Supercharger network. I will show you what repairs and inspections are necessary, and give you an idea of the costs involved. I'll also talk about the pros and cons of buying a salvage Tesla and whether it's worth the extra effort to get it back on the Supercharger network.
By the end of this video, you'll have a better understanding of what it takes to get a salvage Tesla back on the Supercharger network, and whether it's the right choice for you. So, if you're interested in buying a salvage Tesla, or just curious about the process, make sure to watch this video!

Tons of people just want the ability to purchase the car and have it fixed and ready to be registered to the dmv but having to find a shop to fix the issues after buying from auction is a headache. Hopefully one day there will be a way to buy from auction and have repairs done all in part of the purchase ✅

@89five3five Год назад

Someone needs to start a class action lawsuit against Tesla for this. Tesla opened its supercharger to other brands and they will not know if those cars are repaired properly while accessing charging.

@xpreflex6265 Год назад

That's not Tesla's fault, that will be the Repair shops fault or the owner

@89five3five Год назад

@@xpreflex6265 please understand that means them blocking Tesla for the same reason will no longer stand up in court.

Yea, straight to lawsuit wow😂.. What if you damage the HV battery while repairing your Tesla, and it catches fire when supercharging? This HV battery inspection process is 100%

@jimdon7377 3 месяца назад

@@khan209i how do you damage it? they have sensors, and it will not charge if something is wrong. Besides, any EV can catch on fire.

@tonykunz5982 Год назад

It absolutely still is worth it. There is no better charging network convenient to Tesla's like that supercharger network. I literally just had the same exact damage to my front left of my car and am still waiting on the estimate for repairs... it may be salvaged title. But this video gives me hope now!

One question, if your Tesla has a salvage title, only the supercharger is deactivated or maybe the autopilot?

@Dallen9 Год назад

..... I hate Fluff scamming. Honestly the only reason it'd take more than 30 min. is if they did a tear down of the Vehicle to check the state of the power lines. the same way they can disable the supercharging the same way they can run service check and reenable the supercharging on the car.

@ihuntcardeals Год назад

yeah, I bet it was not longer than an hour of their time. Money making machine :)

@americansmark Год назад

That's some bullshit. If you make an appointment, they need to be ready to work on it then and there.

@ihuntcardeals Год назад

that's what I originally though. They kept it for a week

@jimdon7377 3 месяца назад

they don't you take the car there and they keep it even if they don't start working on it, even for a small issue, I took it in the morning and I was gonna wait, but they said to come at the end of the day.

@NorwayChallenge 2 месяца назад

1200$ for something that shouldn’t be disabled in the first place is absolutely insane. Cars from other brands that Tesla can’t verified whether or not have been fixed properly can charge. They are effectively just giving their own customers a worse experience than the competition.

Great video! My insurance company was forced to total my car after the certified Tesla repair shop in Whittier, CA refused to fix a minor dent in the rear quarter panel, claiming it had to be replaced. But they were fine charging $7,200 in "disassembly" fees. Then charged me $7,000 for the 27 days it sat there NOT being worked on....can anyone recommend a good auto lawyer in SoCal?

@dhctrading1529 8 месяцев назад

so the salvage battery test from Tesla includes free unlimited super charging with that $1200 bill?

@ihuntcardeals 8 месяцев назад

no. my car had a free supercharher for life

@germanarellano5119 Год назад

The problem is that ad a corporation they could change their policy anytime and I might be stuck with a Tesla. THE NEXT BIG ISSUE WOULD BE, HOW HARD WAS TO GET PARTS FROM TESLA?. THEY NORMALLY ONLY ALLOW REPAIRS IN THEIR CENTERS

search eBay. lots of used parts. Very easy.

Been watching a vehicle for weeks(2000 Sentra) w/ unknown damage(run drive) from Gillman Honda. It looks immaculate and I saw the engine vid from IAA. Pre-bids been zero and pure sale and its running through auction again. I keep scrathing my head wondering why no one has bit yet. I keep wondering what Gillman was thinking selling it to IAA

@so4real Год назад

They should give that test a credit for free supercharging. They have no idea what they are doing to their network and customers when they do this. I can see if there was a certain amount of damage etc, mine was not salvage at all but banned after the insurance auction processed it.

Why is my suppercharge are not free?, and I don't know how is the people at service at the TESLA service at your place, bur here in Oregon, they are so mean to the people, I am so not happy with the Tesla customer service, it is terrible, so mean to the customer, I wish I never bought a Tesla, I have a Mersedes , whn I got to service my car, they are happy people smile, asking questing, but here at Tesla, Portland,OR and Tigard,OR ohhh terrible, even my wife stoped by at their place, and she said ,let give that tesla back to them, because of customer service

@ihuntcardeals Год назад

free supercharge was giving in 2016-2018 for all Performance models. I agree Tesla's service is not very friendly oriented, my whole service experience was not good, but this inspection could only be done by Tesla, so no other choice.

@aishefasani5635 Год назад

That location in the Gables is a rip off. They try to charge you for things you don't need man. I go there to have a panel along the back window looked at that appeared to be a bit misaligned. And they told me it would take a week and would be $275. But I bought the car NEW 3 days prior and didn't noticed this until putting groceries in back seat. So I took it to Tesla in fort Lauderdale on Federal highway and they look at it fixed it for FREE. And told me I wasn't supposed to be charged. NEVER GO TO THE CORAL GABLES LOCATION.

@bilbo75 10 месяцев назад

@@lopanton007Your Model Y was manufactured with a CCS capability that started in 2021. His 2017 Model S was not. Model S and X salvage owners would need to Install the CCS Retrofit themselves and then find someone that can enable that new hardware as Tesla will not do that work on a salvaged vehicle without this inspection or if your vehicle fails the inspection for battery dents like mine.
