Vlad Kovalenko + 115 VK January 9, 2019 Unless you are getting your car in for service regularly for a full check-up, you are generally waiting for something to break in order to fix it. However, Tesla is now working on a more efficient approach. A new patent application reveals that Tesla is developing a way to detect car issues before they happen and even autonomously drive the car to a service center. https://electrek.co/2019/01/08/tesla-detect-issues-autonomous-service/ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DA? + 301 jh January 9, 2019 But I thought Tesla was apparently going bust, so certain people keep saying. Great Autoline show the other day with Munro talking mainly about Tesla. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

AdrianC + 42 AC January 9, 2019 And then autonomously wait 3-4 months for a service appointment? When you check Tesla owners blog sites you can see hundreds of new owners speaking about their love for the vehicle but frustration with problems identified at delivery and difficulty getting service appointments. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

With such a huge ramp up in numbers of cars sold it's not surprising, it's the next stage to get worked on. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But but I thought EVs don't ever have any issues due to fewer moving parts not ever needing a service and not having brakes, tyres or suspension components or anything boring like that. I see Brents on a charge again ! Back to $80 soon. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
