INTRODUCTION

• The pride in owning a Tesla extends far beyond
  having an expensive car and into
  eco-consciousness. Not only are Teslas designed
  to be environmentally friendly, the cost savings
  from better engineering deliver a return on your
  investment over many years.
• While electric cars are becoming more popular,
  they still have quite a way to go before they
  excel past the status quo of gas cars. A 2017
  article from the Wall Street Journal suggests it
  will be 2030 by the time electric cars account
  for 95 percent of U.S. automobiles. Until
  electric cars become the norm, those who own or
  are considering purchasing a Tesla need to know
  what to do if its damaged in an accident.

TOP BENEFITS OF ELECTRIC CARS

• First, lets back up and understand why you want
  to own a Tesla in the first place. An electric
  car brings many advantages compared to a
  traditional car, most notably
• Significantly cheaper to run Since youre using
  electricity instead of gas, your fuel costs are
  much lower. Try Teslas monthly charging cost
  calculator to see how much you can expect to
  save.

• Less maintenance With oil and many of the parts
  required for a gas car out of the picture, a
  Tesla needs minimal scheduled servicing.
• Better performance Nothing can compare to the
  ease with which an electric car cruises and
  accelerates.
• Reduced pollution The draw of an electric car
  for many people is the ethos of doing their part
  to protect the planet. Teslas mission is to move
  the world toward a zero-emission future.

TESLA REPAIR REALLY MEANS REPLACE

• When you consider a Tesla as a computer on
  wheels, it should go without saying that Tesla
  repair is not standard auto repairyet many Tesla
  owners choose a shop thats not right for the
  job. Because Teslas are built to last, its
  extremely important that they are disassembled
  and reassembled properly.

• For example, if a Tesla requires a frame repair,
  it needs a new frame altogether, as aluminum is
  absolutely non-repairable. You wouldnt try to
  straighten out a piece of crumpled aluminum foil
  why then, do some repair shops insist on turning
  a damaged Tesla frame into an accordion? Even if
  it looks decent to the eye, we know the metal is
  fatigued and unsafe. Throughout the vehicle,
  repairing a Tesla usually involves replacing the
  parts, not salvaging them as you might with a
  traditional car.

• Choose a Tesla certified structural repair
  facility Tesla only certifies and sells parts

• all the manufacturer. Your insurance company is
  there to help you, but not necessarily to ensure
  your Tesla is being repaired properly. Inform
  both the manufacturer and insurer that you are
  visiting a Tesla certified repair shop.
• Bring your car straight to the shop. Teslas
  own repair centers only handle non-technical
  repairs. Once youve found your nearest Tesla
  certified repair shop, bring your vehicle in for
  service and let the shop deal with the insurance
  company.
