Tesla vehicles need to be repaired at Tesla service centers after a collision. Here is some relevant information about Tesla: 1. Tesla's warranty period: Tesla models in China come with a warranty of 4 years or 80,000 kilometers. All Tesla models are electric vehicles, using the 18650 model batteries produced by Panasonic. 2. Tesla brand introduction: Tesla is an American automotive brand, established in 2003, with its headquarters located in Silicon Valley, California, USA. The Tesla logo is the abbreviation of the inventor Tesla's name, and the stylized "T" represents the cross-section of an electric motor.

I've previously repaired Tesla collision cases, and I recommend going directly to an official Tesla service center. Their professional technicians are familiar with electric vehicle batteries and software, ensuring safe repairs for collision damage. For example, if the battery system is damaged, it could pose a fire risk or other hazards and must be thoroughly inspected. Tesla centers have original parts and specialized tools to ensure the car is restored to its original condition, with software updates functioning properly. Avoid going to random roadside shops, as regular mechanics might not handle the electronic control systems correctly, leading to future issues. If the collision is severe, it's best to have the car towed there. Schedule an appointment via the Tesla app to save time. After repairs, remember to check if the charging and autopilot functions are working properly—don't overlook safety.

If my Tesla gets into a collision, my top priority is cost. First, contact the insurance company, as a claim may cover repair costs, but you must specify a Tesla-authorized collision center. Official centers are slightly more expensive but use genuine parts with guaranteed quality. Third-party repair shops are cheaper but may lack complete parts or expertise in software calibration, offering little long-term savings. Authorized centers typically provide detailed quotes, ensuring transparency for comparison. Post-collision repairs involve battery inspections to avoid high-voltage hazards, making professional services more reliable. During repairs, inquire about additional costs, such as the need for a temporary vehicle, and choose the most cost-effective option.

I had a Tesla that got into an accident, and the handling process was quite convenient. Just download the Tesla app or check online for the nearest authorized service center to schedule an appointment directly. These centers are widely distributed, with locations in major cities, and towing services are quick. For example, last time I made an appointment, they could assess the damage the same day without much waiting. The service advisor will explain the repair process, saving you the hassle of running around. During repairs, they automatically update the software to ensure all systems are functioning properly. You can also get a routine maintenance check done at the same time, killing two birds with one stone.
