So I have a 2021 model three standard range plus this actually happened to me same notification at about 35 or 40,000 miles. I took it in because it was a standard range. They upgraded to me to the LFP batteries and because those were a little bit heavier, they had to replace my whole suspension for free. So now I can charge my car to 100% all the time and it’s been awesome.
Moral of the story it's not good for the battery to be constantly getting charged through the Tesla supercharger. Level 2 home charging is the way to go
Tesla warranty is actually pretty good. Be humble and speak respectfully, and the advisors will do what they can within guidelines. I had a brake rotor vibration issue and bought it in. Service tech agreed after test drive and replaced all 4 brake rotors and pads. (This happened at 24,000 miles. ) I’m no one special.
If you're out of warranty, there are a few shops that can diagnose your battery to find out if its a bad cell and replace said bad cell. Looking at a few grand instead of $12-15k for an entire battery placement.
My wife's Model X had a battery die under warranty. She got the free battery replacement, and a free loaner car for a week or so. She had to get a tow to the nearest Tesla service center when it happened. The nice surprise was that Tesla reimbursed her for the tow to the service center.
Hey Nico, bought my 2021 last year in July with 50K miles on it. Have 52K miles now and same thing happened to me. They replaced my battery free of charge and had a loaner so did not have much of a disruption in my life. No clue why the battery died as I charge at home 100% and not sure how the previous owner used it. The service rep was super nice dude and had a nice chat with him. Told me when charging at home to turn down the amps on the app to about 20 to limit the flow of energy into the battery. Not sure if this will make a difference, but have seen a few other Tesla owners post about doing this as well, so jut putting it out there. My Tes is still the best car I have ever owned!
That’s why warranties exist. Tesla’s 8 years/120k warranty is great. A typical ICE warranty for a powertrain is 5 years/60k miles. So, you have a piece mind for extra 3 years or 60k miles. Engines fail too, likely at the rates lower than EV batteries (I’m sure this could be argued by either side of the isle). Given recent hike in labor and parts cost, i can hardly see the engine replacement being done for less than $8-10k.
yes if it will just swap broken part and it good to go on ice but that was trade off as a lazy guy and i don't want to service anything or even fluid change i just only do wiper fluide and tire checking that it no need to worry about engine i am accept to pay if it failed but as my life style i problably trade up to new model before it happen lol
My 15 Silverado both tranny and engine failed repairs avged between 12-17k.. just depends the severity of the damage. The car didn’t even have 100k.. but issues due to manufacturing
@redriver15262 yes. Battery swap( if not under warranty) and engine, transmission swap are equal now and gonna get worse for ice vehicles. P.s. CATL (battery manufacturer) just uped the game with a 1 million, 15 year warranty battery. All others will follow or die... Buy evs
Battery costs are dropping 9% YoY on average. The advantages of driving EVs are way better than the hypothetical costs of a battery replacement. But I’m not poor so I would prefer a better ride than to save a few pennies.
@@ModelYowner the odds of an ICE car having a $15k repair are wayyyyy less than these electric car failures. Also look at Fisker, their cars are bricked unless u find someone who has the software to work on them, who's to say tesla won't go the same route. All it takes is one wrong move by Tesla Or Elon and they too will become bricks. imagine having to Jailbreak YOUR CAR?!?! lmfaoooo
Hey Nico first time viewer here. Those mountains in the background look like either Fremont hills, Milpitas hills, or East San Jose foothills where I live. Thanks for the advice. I have 2024 model Y so far it’s great. I test all the models regularly at Fremont factory. My kid is addicted to that and better than going to Disneyland - and free! I use FSD 99% of time bc I have sciatic nerve issues with my right leg. Driving is so enjoyable without ever touching the pedals. ICE’s antiquated - never would go back
I’ve replaced two HV batteries on my y within 85K both failed, not sure how rare it truly is, I like my tesla but I’ve never had to replace a gas tank nor an engine in any of the ice cars I’ve had
Same here, 21 MYLR first HV batt dies at 73k then the replacement dies a week later. I'm on the third batt (refurbished) pushing 100k miles this week with 93% health. Knock on wood, guys! Wife's 22 MYP still on original HV batt with 35k miles. I may not keep the car past 120k much. Best of luck to you both!
Yep. Save money in gas and maintenance in 6-10 years only to get stuck with a 20k repair bill at the end of it. Cab companies love rav4 hybrids for a reason because basic maintenance gets them to 500k miles and beyond.
At 113k and only a "refurbished" battery...which questionable and never last as long Iong as the original, look at all the hybrid refurbished or rebuilt batteries, they are not the same quality. At the end of the day with how much the intial cost of the tesla, the charging stations in which you have to pay and aquire, and all the issues, with access to charging stations and issues is weather, the technology is not quite there, doesn't matter if everyone wants to be on the ev bandwagon because it just what is the latest and greatest, not to mention they are a fire Hazzard, and most fire departs are not properly equipped to facilitate them when they catch on fire. Nobody wants to talk about the elephant in the room..the Socal fires in which alot of tesla are owned by the rich and normal people in socal, Adding to the fire issue, as they are very difficulr to put out and multiply the many owners in that/those upscale neighbors will have at least a good amountof ev owners compounding the already devestateing fire in it self.
@anad44 ....let start with Benz in 1885 as the very 1st vehicle, up to the point where Ford was the only one who had a gas tank located as a crumble zone , smack dab in the middle of the the trunk in the center where all others are placed inboard, using the area as a spare tire compartment using a steel rim which doubles as a barrier for rear end collision to minimize and extend the crumble zone, the bad designs were in the infamous pinto and mustangs of that period...which during most rear end collision resulted in fires..which deemed a very bad design flaw and deadly. No fast forward to modern day today with you assumption that evs are safer, since you are soo intelligent go down to your local fire department and asked them just how prepared they are with current ev car fires,. They are Grossly not prepared to successfully extinguish ev fires and have the proper equipment to do so. They currently need a 5k-8k smoldering blanket to choke out the fire. It will not extinguish completely with the equipment they currently have, and they have to pull the vehicle, and that's if they can get to it and pull it out of the house 1st and if they have the blanket and equipment to deal with that type of fire, hence most fire department just let it burn and so goes along the house it in or near. Have you ever see and delt with ev batteries or any batteries of current date. They are very dangerous, ie, samsung tried to push the battery technology too fast and paid the price with exploding , fire causing cell phones while plugged in at home. Same with the Chinese and their scooters which is a big problem in alot.of structure fires. The ev cars are no different, when they burn its similar to thermite, burns at an intensity where traditional fire equipment is not up to par. Just lQQk at the Socal fires and you know alot of the rich and even normal person has at least a good amount teslas or evs and in that vast and large numbers and the enormous fire, and given the nature of how difficult to extinguish,.it partially is a contribution to being able to contain the fire. In a gas vehicle at least if the fuel is burnt up thatn is it, a ev fire Will continue to burn and burn. Ne intelligent and research ev fire and how different for you local fire department to handle. So,.since Benz up until now, altho fuel is voitile, it is manageable and proven safe. LQQK at tou commercial airline,.the whole wingspan is full.of fuel, and since the beginning of aviation is safe. Ev has its place but is not quite there and still just a fad, until it gets proven and it's technology is to the point where it is actually proven over a long period of sustained use,.and the risk most of the masses do not know or understand,.or manufactures are only out to make money and don't inform you the Hazzards. Imagine getting into a ev vehicle accident and a fire started and you got so complacent you did it learn how to get out a locked ev that relies on its batteries to unlock the door and your locked in and no way out, and your hurt or unconscious and the fire department can't extinguish the fire with you in the car. So, what were you saying about fosil fuel vehicles???
Re-Manufactured translates in to the battery comes from a totaled car and gets the once over and sent to you. You can be in the exact same condition 2 miles after your warranty is expired, then what happens.
It should still be under warranty. They may give you a new battery. Also, you should be able to reset the car and get it to charge. To reset, you just unplug the power plug under the back seat.
To be clear, the LFP battery isn't replacing the lithium ion batteries. They are on the standard range versions of are are slower due to the chemistry.
Welcome back to Fremont! Glad you got this resolved fairly easily. @5:53 that Kohl’s store will soon be closing as will Macy’s at Newpark. No surprise for either one, but yet more people will find themselves out of work this year. Would you ever consider going back to Tesla?
@@NicoMurillo I just want to recommend for you to start applying for positions at the Texas factory because I did hear from a resource that they will be shutting down the California locations and everything will be moved over to Texas.
@@JacksonWalter735 it really depends what position you’re applying for there are some positions where you do need to have some type of degree and for me I actually started as a production associate there and then I moved up to quality technician which is one of the best positions in my opinion at Tesla but if you’re looking at being an engineer or maybe an HR or something of that yes you would need some type of education. Although I was a part of the layoffs at the same time as Nico I sincerely miss working there and I’m hoping that one day I could be back there, but I would highly recommend that you apply for the Tesla in Texas because I did hear that the California sites will be shutting down in the next few years.
I always feel safe based on the percentages that go bad but it makes me nervous when I see that a decent number of the Tesla influencers have needed replacements. So that makes me wonder if the official numbers are accurate. I'm at 105,000 miles in a 2020 3 Performance so my warranty will likely be up this year.
Makes sense that a replacement under warranty shouldn't extend the warranty...this is true of (nearly) all warranty work. But an out-of-pocket battery replacement comes with a 4y/50000mi warranty from Tesla. Would have been nice to get an actual cost from Tesla, rather than Google/Reddit, as we don't know if this is still the price today.
Biggest Tip or Trick.... Buy a NIO with battery swap when they become available in the US. They have battery as a service to. So you can rent the battery and buy the care for Much cheaper.
I’m thinking about getting a Tesla. So you shouldn’t charge above 80% and don’t let it run below 20%? That means if you’re getting a 300 mile range at 100%, you can’t go above 240 miles and not below 60 miles, giving you an optimal driving range of 180 miles per charge? Assuming you’re not using up the battery for anything else. 🙃
I have a 2021 Model Y with FSD and it now has +135,500 miles on it. I have drove many places that take a 100% charge and have arrived many times at 5-9% charge. You drive it like you need to. Stop talking like everyone follows the "guidelines" or "good practice". These cars are built to pump the miles on.
Tesla's are notorious for suspensions issues 13:40 within the first 50K to 100K miles. I'm assuming this may be related to the weight of the battery. However, this should be addressed with enhanced UCAs/links, etc. I've driven multiple ICE cars past 200K miles and NEVER had to change any suspension components.
lfp is good but it don't have power (like it can't do 0-100 in 4.2 sec) so typical tesla will use it on rwd model long range and performance will get nmc battery nmc capable of doing that con lfp if you didn't charge opten like once a week it it cause some issue that it will forgot how many % if left so sometime you have 20% left but accually it was5-10% and it will hiccup and will likely cause you a panic mode lol ( but i heard that tesla have less chance it happen but chiness ev lfp this is common issue) nmc is when it full and you don't drive it will cause battery degradation but i think just turn on sentry mode it will drain that 100% easily so no need to worry about it i mean if it degradation just let it degrade because it has 8 years waranty anyway so they just replace it for you no cost unless you drive it a lot like use it for living(job stuff) then you might follow his tip like charge 80% only or chage often if it lfp
For the Short run tesla is cheap no gas but long run tesla is more expensive than ICE engine. When car gets older doesn't mean need to replace the engine, it gives less mileage, we still run the car but in the EV car ( just like cell phone battery) batter will completely drain when car gets older. There is no other option beside replace battery which cost around 15k to 20k. In the future if its cost 3k to 5k to replace battery than EV is great choice.
Your car was under warranty and your battery fail and they change out your battery with a refurbished battery that is not exceptable if your battery is under warranty they should change its out with a new battery. For this reason I will never buy a Tesla. And should you ever get in major accident it’s could catch on fire and put your life at risk.
Anything and many things can happen in life. That’s a guarantee e.g. we will all die one day. BUT should we let those FEARS hold us back? No! Live life to the full, take risks! Don’t believe all the worst things will happen to you. I enjoy my Tesla every time I use it. How many millions of Tesla are out there?
I traveled in mine for 4 months and wondered if I was risking anything by having it on all the time and connecting 12 volt refrigerators. I connected them directly to the 12 volt and they keep causing an error about the low voltage battery but I don't get how that would damage the high voltage battery. It never seemed to have actual problems despite the warning so I ignored it. It just seemed to think the low voltage might need replacement but it's new so I thought it was probably fine. I want to travel this way again and for longer so I'm not sure how I can do this without risking this problem.
I have the solution! Get an ecoflow external battery to plug up ur fridge! Here’s a link to it: Ecoflow delta 2: amzn.to/3DSGi68\ Also watch my video about how i use it here: th-cam.com/video/3CQi40q4QDE/w-d-xo.htmlsi=gmBXOFaWg0AxNOIs
@@NicoMurillo I have thought of that but don't know where to put it that doesn't take up a big chunk of space. I want to have my camping setup easily fold up into the trunk when I'm not using it, leaving a nice car that no one would guess that I live in. I guess I could put the Ecoflow behind my seat and move it to the trunk on the rare occasion that I need the back seats for passengers.
They dont service the modules. Basically to open the batt seals and glue, etc taking them apart is done at Teslas dedicated battery refurb facilities. A few third parties in SoCal are now offering the module service but still in the 5k+ cost as far as I know.
I know someone who does rideshare and had to replace their battery at 61k miles. He says he will go back to a hybrid toyota before the warranty runs out as he simply cannot risk another battery failure after that. His Tesla's trade in value has rapidly depreciated as well and told me he wished he had never gotten a Tesla.
@jeschr3462 most customers in my area trade in around 7 years before the warranty expires or they lease. I tell those that transition to EV to save the money they would spend on gas or expensive annual maintenance so they can pay for things out of warranty if they chose to keep them past 4 years. Tesla pretty much covers everything except wear and tear for the first 4 years. 8 years for battery and drive units. HV batteries are not cheap with any manufacturer.
@jeschr3462 I think those that see the most savings are European luxury car owners. If you have a Japanese car you really don't spend much on repairs or maintenance plus they are easier to fix. I've fixed gas, diesel, and now electric. They all fail and are enjoyable to fix.
I lease my model 3 and will get a new car in a few months which I will also lease. Hence I don't need to be worried about battery issues, or the hassle of resale,etc, less than $300 per month and I always have the latest tech.
Seems like a lot of stress and unnecessary procedures to own one of these limited range vehicles added costs for doing what I take for granted in my ICE 4x4 but if you enjoy replacing these parts and have money if not under warranty after only 8 years then go for it and enjoy will be interested to see overall costs after 25 plus years like my landcruiser 1996 80SERIES if That ever lasts that long .but will probably traded in to become some other persons financial problem or will be scrapped as it may be worthless by then Time will tell .
I just want to share this with you so that you can be encouraged and know that God has a plan and a purpose for you. God is so good that even when we reject him and don’t even want him, he still has a plan for us and he still blesses us.

That’s right, now a couple of years ago it was closer to 25k with time the cost come down to be honest
The battery in my gas car only costs $200 😂😂😂😂 Tesla drivers are a different species
lol funny thing tesla actually have a 12v battery as well just like a ICE car those have to be replaced every 3-5 years but they’re very cheap
Biggest Tip or Trick.... Buy a NIO with battery swap when they become available in the US. They have battery as a service to. So you can rent the battery and buy the care for Much cheaper.
I’m thinking about getting a Tesla. So you shouldn’t charge above 80% and don’t let it run below 20%? That means if you’re getting a 300 mile range at 100%, you can’t go above 240 miles and not below 60 miles, giving you an optimal driving range of 180 miles per charge? Assuming you’re not using up the battery for anything else. 🙃
My max range is 291 miles at 100%
Sooo with the calculations my “max” is 232miles and lowest is 58miles
I have a 2021 Model Y with FSD and it now has +135,500 miles on it. I have drove many places that take a 100% charge and have arrived many times at 5-9% charge.
You drive it like you need to. Stop talking like everyone follows the "guidelines" or "good practice".
These cars are built to pump the miles on.
Tesla's are notorious for suspensions issues 13:40 within the first 50K to 100K miles. I'm assuming this may be related to the weight of the battery. However, this should be addressed with enhanced UCAs/links, etc. I've driven multiple ICE cars past 200K miles and NEVER had to change any suspension components.
I just bought a new Model 3 Highland, how do I know which battery type I have ? Where do you look for ? Thanks
lfp is good but it don't have power (like it can't do 0-100 in 4.2 sec) so typical tesla will use it on rwd model long range and performance will get nmc battery
nmc capable of doing that
con
lfp if you didn't charge opten like once a week it it cause some issue that it will forgot how many % if left so sometime you have 20% left but accually it was5-10% and it will hiccup and will likely cause you a panic mode lol ( but i heard that tesla have less chance it happen but chiness ev lfp this is common issue)
nmc is when it full and you don't drive it will cause battery degradation but i think just turn on sentry mode it will drain that 100% easily so no need to worry about it i mean if it degradation just let it degrade because it has 8 years waranty anyway so they just replace it for you no cost unless you drive it a lot like use it for living(job stuff) then you might follow his tip like charge 80% only or chage often if it lfp
So after getting new battery 🔋, Do you have New Warranty
how can you check if your battery has this type of HV short?
For the Short run tesla is cheap no gas but long run tesla is more expensive than ICE engine. When car gets older doesn't mean need to replace the engine, it gives less mileage, we still run the car but in the EV car ( just like cell phone battery) batter will completely drain when car gets older. There is no other option beside replace battery which cost around 15k to 20k. In the future if its cost 3k to 5k to replace battery than EV is great choice.
Your car was under warranty and your battery fail and they change out your battery with a refurbished battery that is not exceptable if your battery is under warranty they should change its out with a new battery. For this reason I will never buy a Tesla. And should you ever get in major accident it’s could catch on fire and put your life at risk.
Thats all batteries
Hi, can you do a battery health test in service mode to see if battery is new or used?
Anything and many things can happen in life. That’s a guarantee e.g. we will all die one day. BUT should we let those FEARS hold us back? No! Live life to the full, take risks! Don’t believe all the worst things will happen to you. I enjoy my Tesla every time I use it. How many millions of Tesla are out there?
I traveled in mine for 4 months and wondered if I was risking anything by having it on all the time and connecting 12 volt refrigerators. I connected them directly to the 12 volt and they keep causing an error about the low voltage battery but I don't get how that would damage the high voltage battery. It never seemed to have actual problems despite the warning so I ignored it. It just seemed to think the low voltage might need replacement but it's new so I thought it was probably fine.
I want to travel this way again and for longer so I'm not sure how I can do this without risking this problem.
I have the solution! Get an ecoflow external battery to plug up ur fridge!
Here’s a link to it:
Ecoflow delta 2: amzn.to/3DSGi68\
Also watch my video about how i use it here:

@@NicoMurillo I have thought of that but don't know where to put it that doesn't take up a big chunk of space. I want to have my camping setup easily fold up into the trunk when I'm not using it, leaving a nice car that no one would guess that I live in. I guess I could put the Ecoflow behind my seat and move it to the trunk on the rare occasion that I need the back seats for passengers.
@NicoMurillo the link just brings me to the home page of Amazon.
This is kinda disturbing that there's still a good amount of misinformation here
How so? In terms of charging the battery?
Cold climate driving?
How do I tell what type of battery in my 2024 model y performance thanks bro 😊
I'm glad you were still inside your warranty bro. That sounds kinda scary lol 15K is diabolical! 😂
I never had that reset trick work at all.
Yeah its dangerous i don’t advise
Get rid of the Tesla, go buy yourself a good used gas powered car.
Ok On my way
@nico... 😂🤣😂👍🏻🇬🇧
I’ll trade in my model Y for a Hummer
115,000 miles in 3 years…you wild 😅
Why didn't you ask service center about the Modules for the battery and replace just the modules which cost cheaper than replace the battery pack
They dont service the modules. Basically to open the batt seals and glue, etc taking them apart is done at Teslas dedicated battery refurb facilities. A few third parties in SoCal are now offering the module service but still in the 5k+ cost as far as I know.
No thanks. I'll stick to the rav4 hybrid. Cab companies love em for a reason.
8:41 😲Mamma I made it to the big screen! (I don't remember commenting that 😅)
i love replacement car it my country it include free supercharge so i use it alot lol
Don't feel so bad I've replace batteries under warranty at 20,000 miles.
Whoahhh thats hella low miles
I know someone who does rideshare and had to replace their battery at 61k miles. He says he will go back to a hybrid toyota before the warranty runs out as he simply cannot risk another battery failure after that. His Tesla's trade in value has rapidly depreciated as well and told me he wished he had never gotten a Tesla.
@jeschr3462 most customers in my area trade in around 7 years before the warranty expires or they lease. I tell those that transition to EV to save the money they would spend on gas or expensive annual maintenance so they can pay for things out of warranty if they chose to keep them past 4 years. Tesla pretty much covers everything except wear and tear for the first 4 years. 8 years for battery and drive units. HV batteries are not cheap with any manufacturer.
@jeschr3462 I think those that see the most savings are European luxury car owners. If you have a Japanese car you really don't spend much on repairs or maintenance plus they are easier to fix. I've fixed gas, diesel, and now electric. They all fail and are enjoyable to fix.
the moral of the story: don't make your tesla a HOME! 3:)
I lease my model 3 and will get a new car in a few months which I will also lease. Hence I don't need to be worried about battery issues, or the hassle of resale,etc, less than $300 per month and I always have the latest tech.
Seems like a lot of stress and unnecessary procedures to own one of these limited range vehicles added costs for doing what I take for granted in my ICE 4x4 but if you enjoy replacing these parts and have money if not under warranty after only 8 years then go for it and enjoy will be interested to see overall costs after 25 plus years like my landcruiser 1996 80SERIES if
That ever lasts that long .but will probably traded in to become some other persons financial problem or will be scrapped as it may be worthless by then Time will tell .
Does anyone here drive a BMW i3 ? I’m worried as my mileage is getting up there.
I just want to share this with you so that you can be encouraged and know that God has a plan and a purpose for you. God is so good that even when we reject him and don’t even want him, he still has a plan for us and he still blesses us.
I hope that one day you sincerely choose him.

Weird comment
Phew! Talk about close calls. Buy a lottery ticket, seems as though you're luck is peaking. :)
F**ck that I WON`T tESLA EVER.
Here's a pretend problem that didn't happen to me for clicks
