The Dealer Wanted $4,400 To Fix His Hybrid.

Impressive! :smile:

This is a good story.

Unfortunately, even though such a thing is within my skill set, the Tesla battery is so big that if it develops a fault out of warranty, I'll still be at Tesla's mercy since I don't have the heavy lifting equipment necessary to remove the battery on my own. Will the SC will be used to just swapping the battery (like I have seen reported) and tell me the same thing? I hope not. Could be costly vs a simple cell replacement or contact cleaning). Perhaps this is where an entrepreneur can step in?

To be fair you should also count all of his labor time at the dealer's rate. Still nowhere near $4400.
