Does your Tesla 3 run differently than it used to? Perhaps you've noted weaker braking, or your vehicle doesn't feel like it has the same "get up and go" that it used to. If that's the case, Firestone technicians can conduct a no-cost* electric/hybrid vehicle check to get a better idea. Maybe there's a problem with your 3’s high voltage cooling system -- if the high voltage battery is running hot, it will limit the battery’s performance. Or, perhaps there are Diagnostic Trouble Codes stored in one of your 3's electric modules? Your local Firestone Complete Auto Care location is equipped to offer conventional and low voltage services for all electric vehicles, including your 2018 Tesla 3.
Certain Firestone Complete Auto Care locations also offer high voltage/advanced services for electric vehicles like the Tesla 3. High voltage services are any that include removing the 3's high voltage, safety/service disconnect switch/plug, servicing any high voltage cables, the power inverter, the high voltage electric machines/motors, the high voltage battery pack, high voltage A/C compressor, etc. Call your local store before making an appointment to check if high voltage services are offered.
Some of these high voltage electric vehicle services might include:
Electric vehicle diagnostic: A diagnostic is the next step we take after noting the symptoms your Tesla 3 is showcasing. This step will help us get to the bottom of the real problem. With those insights, a trained technician will further pinpoint any electric vehicle problems and figure out if more tests are needed. No repairs are performed without your consent.
High voltage battery cooling inspection: The technician will closely examine the high voltage battery's filter and, if needed, 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 2018 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 Tesla 3's high voltage battery a goner? Electric vehicle batteries may need replacement sooner in hot climates or if you frequently use Level 3 fast-charging stations, since these chargers can heat the battery more. Let us replace it for you.
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.
