Model S service and repair
The Model S arrived in 2012 and changed what people expected from an electric car. Plenty of those early cars are still on the road, and we like keeping them there.
What we see on older cars
The Model S holds up well. Early builds do have a short list of repeat problems, and we know them by heart.
- Drive unit seepage and leaks
- Worn suspension parts and leaking air struts
- Door handles that won't extend
- Window regulators that give out
On 2012 to early 2016 cars, we can also fit the drive unit coolant manifold bypass.

2015 Model S Dual Motor · suspension & drive oil
“I plan on keeping my 2015 Tesla Model S Dual Motor for as long as I can, as they have been discontinued, and my car looks great and runs great. So with my Model S approaching 200,000 miles, I have made the decision to maintain all the critical systems. Chris replaced front and rear suspension components and changed the oil on both drive units. The car is running as smooth as I have ever experienced. Mesman Motors offers a great service experience for reasonable prices as compared to Tesla Service.”
