UPDATE 4/29/2024 After sending a snail mail to the state BMV that originally marked the title as salvage, I received a letter back that verified that the salvage stamp was an error and had been removed. I sent this letter to my local service center (who sent it to corporate I assume), Tesla has...

Maybe that is why the insurance company won't show me the pictures. They admitted that it doesn't match the computer info though. Maybe whatever program they entered into "corrected" the check digit when they were making the replacement VIN plate. That is what dmvrecords. us. org does when I...

I can take the serial number that the insurance gave me with 1 digit difference and it shows up in an online vin check. So maybe Tesla uses a different system. Or are you referring to the bar code? Tesla never checked the cars, they just did an Autocheck search for salvage titles. Ironically the...

The most recent info from the insurance auction is that the VIN plate was damaged on the other car in the accident, and was replaced with my number (one digit different from the one on the computer in that car). I'm still waiting from official documents from the insurance and bmvs to send to Tesla.

I should add that the photo of the wrecked car shows massive damage that their system should detect.

Yet if the car continues charging fine why would they block supercharging? Surely hail damage isn't going to damage the battery. And a quick look at the car shows that it hasn't been seriously damaged. I had it in to a Tesla authorized collision center for minor trunk damage, and they found no...

I agree that this sounds like human error, but now I have to prove it to Tesla, and to all of the VIN search engines, the BMVs of two states, get the title cleared, try to get Tesla to fix it without charging ridiculous amounts, etc. Then I can hopefully sell it and never buy a Tesla again...

I am the sole owner (Nov 2020). I learned about this this past Sunday when I tried to supercharge and it said Supercharging not enabled. I supercharged Dec 31st no problem. The salvage title is from December 2023. There have been no problems with my account and I am not blocked. I doubt the...

So my VIN was erroneously (or fraudulently) used on a salvage title in another state (police are investigating). Now supercharging is disabled and the warranty voided. The service center wants $850 for the 1st inspection to reenable supercharging, no word on the second inspection. I would think...
