How do I know when to get new brakes on my Tesla 3?

A brake check is one of the best ways to know for sure. Staying on top of your OEM maintenance intervals for 3 brakes helps, too. In general, however, front brake pad wear is less in electric vehicles thanks to regenerative braking.

My Tesla 3 dashboard warning light is on. What should I do?

There are so many reasons the 3 dashboard warning light can illuminate. Stop by Firestone Complete Auto Care for an electric vehicle diagnostic to learn more. You may also have a warning light on the dash regarding your high voltage system.

What can cause my 3 to leak water?

It is normal for an electric car to have some water underneath it after running the air conditioning for a period of time. This moisture is present because electric cars still use a receiver dryer assembly to keep the contaminants out of the vehicles A/C refrigerant, and as part of this process, some condensation is produced as a byproduct. On warm days, the condensation drains under the vehicle. A little bit of water is normal. But if you notice a significant amount of water or any amount of coolant leaking from your 3, it may be a sign of a problem with the cooling system or another component.

Local EV Service for 2017 Tesla 3

Have you noticed your Tesla 3 behaving differently? Maybe you've felt less "pep" in its acceleration, or it feels like it is taking forever to go from 0 to 60MPH. If so, our technicians can run through a no-cost* electric/hybrid vehicle check to get a better idea. There could be an issue with the high voltage cooling system in your 3 -- if the high voltage battery is running too hot, it will reduce your battery's performance. Then again, it could be that your 3 has Diagnostic Trouble Codes stored in one of its electric modules. Firestone Complete Auto technicians are trained to provide conventional and low voltage services for all electric vehicles, including your 2017 Tesla 3.

Some Firestone stores also provide high voltage/advanced services for Electric Vehicles like the Tesla 3. High voltage services are any that include removing the Tesla's high voltage, service/safety disconnect plug/switch, servicing high voltage electric machines/motors, the high voltage battery pack, high voltage A/C compressor, any high voltage cables, etc. Before making an appointment, call your closest location to confirm that high voltage services are offered.

These are some of the high voltage electric vehicle services that may be offered at your location:

Electric vehicle diagnostic: After any symptoms are identified, then our team performs a diagnostic on your 2017 Tesla 3 to get to the root of the trouble. With that info in hand, your expert technician can further diagnose electric vehicle problems you're having and determine what tests (if any) are needed. No repair work is done until you give us the thumbs up.

High voltage battery cooling inspection: Your technician will examine the 3's high voltage battery filter, if applicable, and clean the battery's ducts. (This applies to air-cooled high voltage batteries. Liquid-cooled or refrigerant-cooled high voltage batteries are inspected differently.)

High voltage cable inspection: Your technician will visually inspect the outer cable jackets and connectors on your 2017 Tesla 3 and test to ensure high voltage is NOT transferring to the chassis. They'll let you know if the cable needs replacement due to wear and tear.

Isolation test: During this test, the technician will use a special tool to check for any high voltage components that are "leaking" electric energy to the chassis.

Remove and replace high voltage battery: Is your 2017 Tesla 3 high voltage battery weak and failing? Sometimes electric vehicle batteries can wear out sooner than you expect in hotter climates or if you use Level 3 fast-charging stations often, since these chargers can heat the battery more. Let us install a new electric vehicle high voltage battery.

Health check for the power electronic systems: We'll inspect the regenerative braking, power inverter, and/or electric drive machine(s)/motor(s) in your Tesla 3.

These are just a few of the more specialized electric car services that might be offered at your local Firestone Complete Auto Care. Call and ask!
