Morning!
I have a 2015 Model S and the third battery has failed (at least that is what the local service center is telling me). The note when I scheduled service was “our initial diagnostics point to an issue with the HV battery that cannot be repaired in service. It will need to be replaced.” My third battery was installed September 2022 and had a one year warranty, so it is slightly out of warranty. The car has about 155,000 miles on it and I bought it new. Needing a fourth battery with this many miles seems doesn’t really seem normal to me. The quote for a new battery was a little less than $17,000. I spoke to the GM at the service facility and he wasn’t helpful and felt like charging for the replacement was fair and “perhaps he could help me a little with the labor.”
Anyone have any ideas on what to do?
Thanks!
