Questions Tesla owners ask us.

No. Under the federal Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act, a manufacturer can’t void your vehicle warranty just because an independent shop did the work. Tesla can only deny a specific warranty claim if it proves our work caused that failure. We use OEM or OEM-equivalent parts and document every repair.

Model S, Model 3, Model X and Model Y — every year, including early Model S and X that are out of warranty.

No. All work is done at our shop at 8418 Katella Ave in Stanton, where the car can go on a lift and we have the right equipment.

Use the “Book a diagnosis” button anywhere on this site — it opens our online scheduler. Pick the service, pick a time, and you’ll get a confirmation. Or call (714) 699-0627.

Monday to Friday 9:00–5:30, Saturday 9:00–2:00, Sunday by appointment only.

Mostly Stanton, Garden Grove, Anaheim, Buena Park, Cypress, Westminster and Fullerton, but owners drive in from all over Orange County and Los Angeles.

Yes. You can apply online in a few minutes through our financing partner — see the Financing link in the footer.

Always. We diagnose first, send you photos of what we found, and quote the repair. Nothing gets done without your approval.

Yes. Warranty terms are printed on your invoice and vary by part and job — ask the shop manager when you approve the quote.

On Model 3 and Model Y the most common cause is worn upper control arm ball joints. We confirm it on the lift before quoting anything.

Yes. We diagnose leaks, compressor faults, height sensors and leveling errors on Model S and Model X air suspension, and calibrate the system after repair.

Most control arm, strut and link jobs are done the same day. We tell you the time estimate when you approve the quote.

Usually yes. Replacing control arms, tie rods or struts changes the geometry, so we finish with a 4-wheel alignment.

The usual causes are a refrigerant leak, a failed compressor, or on Model 3 and Y a fault in the heat pump / super manifold. We pressure-test and read the fault codes before quoting.

Yes. We diagnose and repair the heat pump system including the super manifold and octovalve on Model 3 and Model Y.

Most compressor and condenser jobs are completed the same day. We confirm the time when you approve the quote.

Not blindly. A Tesla A/C that needs a recharge has a leak. We find and fix the leak first, then evacuate and recharge to spec.

Often no. Many battery alerts come from one or two weak modules or a BMS fault, which can be repaired for a fraction of a full pack.

Model S, Model 3, Model X and Model Y, including older out-of-warranty Model S and X.

We usually have a diagnosis within one to two business days of drop-off.

Tesla doesn’t publish an interval, but the gear oil ages like any transmission fluid. A fluid exchange is cheap insurance on higher-mileage cars.

Yes. We replace front and rear drive units on Model S, 3, X and Y.

Yes. We use Tesla-compatible diagnostic tools to read the full fault log and live data on every model.

A read of the fault log, live-data and hands-on testing of the affected system, and a written repair recommendation with a quote.

Because regen does most of the stopping, pads last a long time but calipers can seize from lack of use. A clean-and-lube every year or two keeps them free.

Yes, 4-wheel alignment on every model, including after suspension repairs.

Battery health, charging test, software and alerts, brakes, suspension, tires, body and a written report you can use to negotiate.

Tesla recommends cabin filter every 2 years, brake fluid check every 2 years, and A/C desiccant service on a longer interval. We check all of it at an annual visit.

On Model S and X with the large rear drive unit, the coolant passages are a known leak point into the motor. The coolant delete removes that path so the drive unit isn’t damaged by a leak.

Yes. We provide a written estimate with photos that you can submit to any insurer.

Yes, including the programming Tesla’s lighting modules need, which is why many general shops can’t do it.
