My advice based on my experience is to hire an attorney and do not fall for Tesla lemon buy back by calling Tesla direct. So I have a 2021 Model S that I bought used in 2021 ( because back then the wait to buy new was long).The car had 20000 mile on it when I bought . I just hit 50K mile mark and the car is now out of warranty . The car has been in service for four times for the same reason ( front driver side half shaft replacement ) . I called Tesla last month and started their process in the Hope of getting the car replaced . They played a game of trying to delay and they refused to even call back. After numerous calls and request for manager call back, I finally got a call back from Tesla manager in Long Beach and I have been told that since I bought the car used , The lemon law buyback program does not apply. They are incorrect in that , the lemon law still has to apply if the car is purchased from a dealer . I bought a car from a non Tesla used car dealer. I am in the process of hiring an attorney but wanted to see your suggestion of how to proceed ?
I have been told by friends not to go through arbitration because arbiters usually back ups manufacturers because at the end of the day manufacturers pay for arbitration cost.
