Are Tesla cars easy to maintain?

Well, there are two answers, yes and no
For the first few years a Tesla will be a dream to maintain, wiper blades,
washer fluid, cabin filters, tires, alignment. Pretty much everything else
would be warranty.
Here's the catch. After the warranty you're hung. Here's why. Tesla makes it
very difficult to get parts. There's NO aftermarket for Tesla parts beyond
tires, wheels, wiper blades etc. Wreck a Tesla, you are going to buy parts
from TESLA. If they'll sell them to you. Car shows up damaged on a Carfax?
Tesla can essentially disavow your car and then you can't do supercharging.
They're basically doing the same thing Macintosh does with MacBooks and
iPads, you just can't get them worked on unless you go through the “factory
”…. That's a huge concern.
With regular cars, Ford, Chevrolet, Mercedes, etc, within a year or so of a
new model coming out there's a huge number of suppliers producing parts for
the “aftermarket”. Need an alternator, you can go to the dealer, or you
can go to AutoZone, O'Reilly's, or even order one from Amazon. Not so with
Tesla. You'll buy your parts from Elon and Co. Or you'll do without. You'll
pay what Tesla demands or your very expensive car will be a paperweight.
Crash your 3 year old Chevrolet pickup or your Subaru wagon? Yes, you can go
to the dealer and buy all the parts to fix it, or you can order replacement
parts from any number of “aftermarket suppliers” some of these panels are
made in the same factories and on the same equipment as the original parts
were made but marketed under another name. Some are of the same quality as
factory as far as fit, finish and corrosion resistance, some are not. Some
are made in China or India. And while some of those are fine, some I have
seen have rusted out in only a few years as they were very poor quality
steel and had little to no corrosion protection.
Here's another angle. Many manufacturers after they discontinue production
of a given model or body style will actually sell the factory tooling and
dies to a company that specializes in aftermarket parts. So that happens
some times. When I wrecked my 1986 Mazda B2000 in 1993 or so, I priced the
hood, fender, bumper and grille at the dealer and aftermarket. The
aftermarket parts were less than half price, so that's what I went with. I
also had a friend with the same truck who was in an accident that was
covered by insurance, so he opted for dealer parts while I got mine from TYC
, a popular aftermarket source. Turns out when his parts came from the
dealer they were TYC parts in a Mazda box, Mazda was getting their parts
from TYC in Mazda packaging. This happens quite often I believe.
So long story short there is no aftermarket for Tesla parts. I don't know if
there ever will be, and the fact that Tesla can make your car harder to use
by cutting off supercharger access and in theory at least remotely totally
shut your car down worries me. I think they're probably nice cars, but I
wouldn't own one due to the fact that you're just too much at Tesla's mercy.
There's a very popular YouTuber called RichRebuilds and he's rebuilt a few
flood salvage and or wrecked Tesla's and you see the absolute nightmare he
goes through trying to get parts. He had a perfect running driving car and
IIRC he needed something really simple like a door handle, so he calls Tesla
up to order one, they ask for his VIN, he gives it to them, they look and
see that the car had been totaled and said, sorry, we won't sell you
anything, we will not support that car at all. That's messed up

好处是，目前Tesla的维修服务总体来说还是价格便宜量又足。我一个邻居的Model 3的
后视镜被LD撞掉了，结果在网上预约了mobile service，Tesla维修人员开了往返200多
miles上门换了新的，parts + labor 一共花了$300多。我的右后小车窗在三藩闹市区
被砸，维修也是一共$300多，还顺变做了个全面检查。我和朋友都表示相当满意。
