Frequently Asked Questions
Can an independent shop service my Tesla?
Yes. Express Auto is a Tesla repair shop, and we license the official Tesla diagnostic software. We handle Tesla service and repair, including suspension and control arms, high-voltage battery replacement, 12V battery replacement, brake service, cabin filters, tire rotation, HVAC diagnosis and scheduled maintenance. Most Tesla repairs are completed same day.
Does using an independent shop void my Tesla warranty?
No. Using an independent shop doesn’t void your factory warranty. Repairs that Tesla covers under warranty should still go to Tesla. OEM parts we supply carry our 2-year/24,000-mile warranty.
What diagnostic software do you use on Teslas?
We license the official Tesla diagnostic software. It lets us read fault codes across the car, run Tesla calibration procedures and confirm a repair before you pick the car up.
How long does a Tesla repair take at Express Auto?
Most Tesla repairs are completed same day. Start with a free inspection, a code scan plus a visual inspection, walk-in or by appointment.
Does Express Auto service Tesla Model S and Model X?
Yes. We service the Model 3, Model Y, Model S and Model X. Services include suspension and control arm repair, high-voltage battery replacement, 12V battery replacement, brake service, cabin and HEPA filter replacement, tire rotation, alignment and scheduled maintenance.
What does Tesla suspension repair cost, and do you use OEM or aftermarket parts?
It depends on how many parts need replacement and whether you choose OEM or aftermarket parts. We require an inspection before we recommend any replacement parts. We photograph the damage and send you the photos and inspection data, so nothing is guesswork: a cracked bushing is plain to see, and that link needs replacing. We source OEM parts from Tesla, and we can source aftermarket suspension parts to meet most budgets. Tesla doesn’t offer wholesale parts pricing to independent shops, so we pay the same price for Tesla parts as anyone else. We gather the right data and give you competitive pricing compared to the dealer. Each front corner has two lower control arms and one upper control arm. Best practice is to replace control arms in pairs, both sides of the axle, so the suspension stays balanced and equally strong side to side.
Is the code scan free? What does diagnosis cost?
Free inspection, walk-in or by appointment: a code scan plus a visual inspection. Our free inspection is a code scan plus a visual inspection of the car. Diagnostics is for when we need more time to find the root cause.
“What a gem! Can't believe I found a certified Tesla shop that's reliable nearby! Went to 2 other repair shops that wanted to completely replace my brakes, but Express Auto showed me photos of my brakes with lots of life left. Will definitely be coming back and recommend anyone with car issues to do the same!”
