Hi guys, I have a 2017 model S 75D. It has exactly 47,033 miles.
I’m concerned about the battery. I have spoken to Tesla and they said it is fine. When I asked them what my battery life is they said they couldn’t tell me that information but my battery is “healthy”.
At this 90% charge I get only 197miles. Which isn’t accurate to real life driving. The other day I dropped my sister to the airport it was 3am clear roads no traffic. which is stating to be 47 miles there and 47miles back, according to Waze.
That should be 90 miles. I have full self driving, so the car was doing most of the work, my climate was on heating and the windows defogger so I’ll factor in few miles of usage contributed towards it. By the time I got home my mileage said I had about 60miles left.
On 100% battery I get only 215miles max. When my car was 45k miles I was getting 218 miles so it’s dropped
I use a podpoint to charge my car as it is free personalised allocations in my apartment basement so it’s also safe from elements. I got the car charging setting on 10Amps. I basically plug it In everyday and charge it so 90%. I leave it plugged in. I have sentry mode on but that’s it, everything else is off.
According to a 3rd party app I recently installed so it isn’t to blame for the battery, the car has a 93.4% battery life and has done 359 charge cycles. I am the 2nd owner it was a business car so I don’t know what they were doing before. But it just simply doesn’t seem right and it gives me significant anxiety I just brought this car in August coming from petrol, and although expensive I had no anxiety about travelling and running out of petrol!
I’m worried I made a mistake and kinda hoping my car does have an issue, or maybe the charger wire I’m using or even something I’m doing? Should i lower the amps should I put battery to 80% instead ?
because I don’t think I can accept this significant false mileage estimate and get rid of the car.
