Questions About 2009 Tesla Roadster Electric Systems
-
Does it cost more to repair Tesla Roadster electric vehicle systems? The answer is, it depends. Certain high voltage parts are only available as components in larger units. We do offer promotional financing through the Firestone credit card.* (*Subject to credit approval.)
-
How do I know when to get new brakes on my Tesla Roadster? A brake inspection is your smartest first step. Investing in manufacturer suggested maintenance intervals for Tesla Roadster brakes is another good idea. That said, front brake pad wear can be significantly reduced in electric vehicles because of regenerative braking.
-
My Tesla Roadster dashboard warning light is on. What should I do? Your Tesla Roadster dashboard warning light might be on due to a number or reasons. You may also have a warning light on the dash regarding your high voltage system. Stop by Firestone Complete Auto Care for an electric vehicle diagnostic to learn more.
-
Why is my Roadster leaking 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 Roadster, it may be a sign of a problem with the cooling system or another component.

2009 Tesla Roadster EV Services
Have you noticed your Tesla Roadster behaving differently? 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, our technicians can perform a no-cost* electric/hybrid vehicle check to get a deeper understanding. Maybe there's a problem with your Roadster’s high voltage cooling system -- a high voltage battery that's running hot will strain the battery's performance. Or, maybe your Roadster has Diagnostic Trouble Codes stored in one of its electric modules? Your local Firestone Complete Auto Care location is equipped to offer conventional and low voltage services for all electric car makes and models, and that includes your 2009 Tesla Roadster.
Select Firestone locations also provide advanced/high voltage services for Electric Vehicles like the Tesla Roadster. A high voltage service is any service that involves taking out the Tesla's high voltage, service/safety disconnect plug/switch, servicing the high voltage battery pack, high voltage A/C compressor, or any high voltage electric machines/motors or 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 2009 Tesla Roadster to get to the root of the trouble. With the information gathered, a professional technician can 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: Your technician will inspect the Roadster's high voltage battery filter (if applicable) and clean the ducts of the battery. (This applies to air-cooled high voltage batteries. Liquid-cooled or refrigerant-cooled high voltage batteries are inspected differently.)
High voltage cable inspection: The outer cable jackets and connectors on your 2009 Roadster will be inspected and tested to ensure high voltage is NOT transferring to the chassis. Your technician will notify you if the cable is in need of replacement.
Isolation test: This test involves using a unique tool to see if any high voltage parts are "leaking" electric energy to the Roadster's chassis.
Remove and replace high voltage battery: Is your Tesla Roadster'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 stations may heat the battery more. We can replace your electric vehicle's high voltage battery.
Health check for the power electronic systems: We'll inspect the power inverter, electric drive machine(s)/motor(s), and/or regenerative braking in your Tesla Roadster.
These are only a few of the special electric car services that could be available at your nearest Firestone Complete Auto Care. Call ahead to confirm!
