How Do You Service A Tesla? (Watch This Video) – Spoiler is there is not much to do
As electric vehicle adoption is increasing by the day, it’s important for Tesla (and other EV) owners to know what’s involved in servicing and maintaining an electric car. Compared to traditional gas-powered vehicles, EVs have a low cost of maintenance and require fewer visits to the service center for routine maintenance.
The reason for less maintenance is primarily due to the absence of an internal combustion engine (ICE) which requires frequent oil changes, air filter replacement, spark plug replacement, etc. Electric vehicles also use “regenerative braking” to return energy back to the batteries, resulting in less wear of the brake pads and discs.
Tesla vehicle maintenance mostly includes wheel alignment monitoring, tire condition inspection, replacement of key fob batteries, windshield wipers and cabin air filter.
