Recell Experience Schertz Texas

[AVSFAN96]

Had the dreaded HV battery failure (module sensor line likely due to water and also low voltage module).

2015 Model S P85D, 112k miles out of warranty

Tesla estimate two days before the scheduled appt was $18.6k. This was 2 weeks from the date of failure.

In that time I jumped on here/FB and found a company called Recell that does manufactured batteries for $7.5-$10k including one way shipping. I had USAA tow the car there and it was done in a day. I left the car an extra few days while they fixed out of scope uncommon issues I had between other jobs.

Time will tell on quality/warranty but I’m super pleased with level of communication. Honest run down of what happened backed up by others in the forums. Extremely good communication (20+ texts) keeping me informed on everything and answering my questions within an hour. Fast turn around and extremely pleased with the experience. A fraction of the cost of what I was going to be forced to pay with Tesla and done weeks before I could even get in with tesla. Bravo! An alternative worthy of your consideration.

How's the range and performance? Looking at Recell it sort of looks like their replacements aren't an exact match for what's in some of our cars.

Hey, I have a 2014 S P85D with same issue. Thinking of using Recell. Which pack did you get and does it provide similar acceleration?

What is the estimated costs? Secondly what will your new range be? Curious like most of us

238 miles indicated on a P85D that was around 218 before the swap.

Cost was all inclusive less the mate wrap that was additional to estimate on website. And they ate the cost of some additional fuses and such that were part of the repair.

All on the Recell website. Included one way shipping which if you are local can become a point of negotiation.

Thanks for letting us know.

This is why right to repair matters!

Had Recell do a 2012 Model S end of April/Beginning of May. It's still chugging along. Highly recommend thus far.
