    Reviewed May 30, 2025

    Bought a Model S last year and while the performance is incredible, I've had nothing but headaches with Tesla's customer service. Multiple software glitches that took months to fix, and when I finally got through to support they were dismissive and unhelpful. The car spends more time at the service center than in my driveway. Parts delays are insane - waited 6 weeks for a simple door handle replacement. Great innovation but they clearly don't care about customers once you've bought the car. Really regretting not going with a traditional luxury brand.

    I've driven my Model Y 2023 long range for approximately 34k miles, no issues whatsoever. Insane acceleration, better than a Ferrari, and scary quiet. Best infotainment, design, and eat-to-use app, in-car controls, etc. If I had a gas car by now, I'd ve spent loads of service and repairs most likely. I charge it at home and it's very cheap. My car doesn't smell like a gas car usually does. I'm a Tesla customer for life, I hope all goes well with the car in the future. My tires look like new (I rotate them every 6.5k miles). Great job designing the car, Elon, long live Tesla!!!!

      Reviewed April 15, 2025

      After driving my Tesla for over two years, I can confidently say there’s no going back. I don’t miss anything about traditional cars. Not the dealerships, not the dealer fees, not the negotiations that feel like hostage situations, and definitely not the gas stations—ugh. Oil changes? Haven’t thought about them in years. And the “surprise” service costs at the dealer? Gone with the wind.

      Driving a Tesla is like switching from a flip phone to a smartphone. Once you experience it, every other car just seems… dumb. I see all these fancy cars on the road—some of them are real lookers—but all I can think is, “Cute… but stupid.” Tesla isn’t just a car, it’s a lifestyle upgrade. It’s tech, speed, comfort, innovation, and freedom all in one. I love my Tesla. I love what Elon Musk is building. And whatever flying spaceship-car hybrid he’s cooking up next? Yeah, I’ll take one of those too. There’s no “car” for me anymore. There’s just Tesla. And just to say it out loud—I don’t want a paycheck, I just want to be part of this innovation. If I could get early access to Full Self-Driving and help test the future, I’d be thrilled. That’s how much I believe in this mission. Tesla isn’t just transportation—it’s transformation.

      After an exhaustive dealers review, I opted to jump into a Tesla EV. I bought Model 3 2025. In short, best ever experience. From the simple APP to configure and buy the car, to the driving experience. It is a luxury car with a completely different driving experience so that I see hard to return to gas vehicles. Model 3 has been upgraded, and they did a fantastic job. I am a mechanical engineer and it was hard to decide the move from gas to EV. Driving is soo cool, that I hardly want to use the FSD... that by the way is awesome. From my parking to the destination, full automatize driving. After several weeks with the cars, by far I recommend it. To note, it was delivered at the Miami Garden location, in Florida... Great service, they call, check by text, everything is fine... really showing care for the customer. This is a clear 5 stars.

      My very expensive Tesla model X' steering wheel leather deteriorated after just 2 years. I was like, what the hell. So, I called them up on a whim and to my surprise I was told, "Yeah, it's a known problem. When can you come in for your free replacement?" So, I made an appointment for sometime in November - not a big deal. 2 days later I get an email saying, "We can come to you if you'd like." Sure! Well, today, John, the tech came to my house, a full 1/2 hour early, was pleasant; helpful and put on my new steering wheel with a new horn. And, he filled up my tires, noting that they were a little low... Single best service experience of my life! Not really! THE SINGLE BEST SERVICE I'VE EVER EXPERIENCED!

      Tesla made me pay a $250 deposit when I was considering trading in my existing Tesla and getting a new Tesla. They came back with a low ball offer on the trade and I declined and they still kept the $250 deposit. Horrible company. They can keep the $250 because it’s the last nickel they’ll ever get from me. Thankfully we have other ev options today so I don’t have to put up with tesla’s bs sales practices anymore.

      Amazing! This car and its tech capabilities for such a low price are unmatchable. Thanks to Elon Musk. I hope Trump changes his point of views for the better of this planet, the incentives are important to protect the Earth and the air we all need to breathe.

      Tesla is the worst car you can find on earth! It is like a piece of toy. Do not recommend to buy and you will regret right away! The car is not functioning and the seats are so uncomfortable. Also it is not safe at all.

      Recently, I had the unfortunate experience of causing major damage to my Toyota Tundra after a stainless steel panel detached from a Cybertruck. The panel came loose near the windshield, struck my front bumper, and then became lodged underneath my truck.

      Hi. I was charged by Tesla for a service that I never subscribed to called full self driving capability service, I called Tesla to refund me and they don't want to know anything and they tell me that I subscribed to this service, I asked them for proof of signature and they tell me that they don't have proof and they still don't want to refund me, has this happened to you too.
