Model X Post-Warranty

[Inigo-Montoya]

My dad's Model X just hit 100k miles and the warranty is gone! Anyone else in this dilemma? What's the deal with repairs now? Should we get a third-party warranty or stick with Tesla service? Need some advice on how to handle so I can help my dad. Thanks!

I requested a pre-warranty-expiration inspection, but they simply stated that this is not something they do and closed the case. So I told them there was a noise coming from the front, the back, and the AC. I ended up with a new front drive unit and a new AC compressor. HA!

Have you considered the types of repairs that might be needed soon, and how does the cost of those compare with a third-party warranty?

Stuff like suspension issues or the Falcon Wing doors acting up can get pricey. Might be worth comparing that to a third-party warranty and see if it’s a better deal.

Congrats on hitting the 100k club—now it’s “choose your own adventure” time! If your dad loves surprises, stick with Tesla; otherwise, a third-party warranty might save some stress (and cash).

I'd just fix it myself, like I would with any other car. There are tons of junkyards that have all the parts you'd need. Most of them list their stuff on eBay too, so finding what you need shouldn't be too hard.
