Does Buying a Used Tesla Still Qualify for Warranty?
2 Answers
Used Teslas still come with a lifetime warranty after transfer of ownership. Tesla's updated warranty terms state that each used Tesla vehicle will receive a one-time comprehensive warranty: 1 year or 10,000 miles, whichever comes first. Additional information: Introduction to Tesla is as follows: Brand Introduction: Tesla is an American new energy vehicle brand, primarily manufacturing and selling electric vehicles, as well as solar panels and energy storage equipment. Tesla's Logo: The Tesla logo features a stylized letter 'T' with an arc above it. The 'T' represents both the first letter of Tesla and the cross-section of an electric motor's rotor, while the arc above symbolizes the motor's stator.
I just bought a used Tesla Model S from a private seller, and it still comes with warranty coverage. Tesla's basic vehicle warranty typically lasts for 4 years or 80,000 kilometers, and it transfers to the new owner along with the car. When I purchased it, there were still two years left on the warranty, and the battery warranty covers up to 100,000 miles. The key is to check the vehicle's history before buying—input the VIN code in the Tesla app to verify the remaining warranty period and mileage. Don’t try to save too much by buying an older car; if the mileage is exceeded or the car was misused, the warranty might be void. Additionally, Tesla’s own Certified Pre-Owned program is more recommended—they add an extra year of warranty, and repairs are handled directly at service centers for convenience. My experience is that a used Tesla still drives just as cool, saving a ton of money while giving peace of mind.
