TESLA S3XY Annual Maintenance Service
An Electric Vehicle (EV), compared to an Internal Combustion Engine (ICE) car, is lower maintenance.
Despite having a fraction of the moving parts, and wear items common in an ICE car, there are important maintenance requirements in an EV.
These are commonly addressed during an annual maintenance session at the Tesla Service Centers, or qualified independent Tesla shops like Gruber Motor Company.
