Tesla Annual Preventive Maintenance

Why a Tesla benefits from a courtesy inspection and Annual Maintenance

As an EV, a Tesla has far fewer moving parts than an internal combustion engine (ICE) carโ€”no oil changes, fewer fluids, and a simpler drivetrainโ€”so on paper it appears to need very little maintenance.

In reality, the high-voltage battery, power electronics, cooling systems, suspension, and braking components all live in a harsh environment of heat, dust, vibration, and occasional moisture, and small issues left unchecked can quietly shorten the life of very expensive parts.

Annual preventive maintenance allows technicians to clean and inspect critical cooling paths, check seals and connectors, update and verify software, evaluate tire wear and alignment, and catch emerging problems long before they become roadside failures or five-figure repair bills.

These items are best addressed during a dedicated yearly maintenance visit at a Tesla Service Center, or at a qualified independent Tesla specialist such as Gruber Motor Company, where technicians work with Teslas every day and understand additional vulnerabilities and preventive needs beyond the original factory guidelines.

Optional Preventive Upgrades for TESLA VEHICLES

Brake Fluid Flush

Brake fluid in a Tesla Model S still does a critical job: it transmits hydraulic pressure to the calipers when you do need the friction brakes. Over time the fluid absorbs moisture, which lowers its boiling point and can cause spongy pedal feel, internal corrosion in lines, calipers, and ABS components, and sticking brake hardwareโ€”especially on EVs where brakes sit unused for long periods due to regen. A periodic brake fluid flush removes contaminated fluid and replaces it with fresh, dry fluid, helping ensure consistent stopping power, longer component life, and safer emergency braking performance.

Vehicle Alignment

The Tesla Roadster puts a lot of load into a small contact patch. Short wheelbase, quick steering, heavy battery pack, and instant torque all mean the suspension geometry has to be โ€œrightโ€ for the car to track straight and handle predictably. Over time, potholes, curb strikes, worn bushings, and even repeated hard acceleration/braking can nudge that alignment out of spec.ย ย When alignment drifts, the first place you usually see it is in the tires. On a Roadster, that often shows up as unusual or accelerated wear.ย  A proper four-wheel vehicle alignment restores the factory camber, caster, and toe settings so all four tires share the load evenly.

Tire rotation, balance, and detailed tread-wear report

Our Tesla Model S tire service includes a full rotation, precision balancing, and a detailed tread-wear report. We rotate and balance all four wheels to promote even wear, reduce vibration, and protect range and ride quality. The tread report documents remaining depth and any abnormal wear patterns, helping catch alignment or suspension issues before they become costly problems.

A/C performance check and Recharge as necessary

Keep your Tesla Model S cool and efficient with our A/C system inspection and recharge service. We verify compressor operation, check vents and climate controls, inspect belts, lines and fittings for leaks, and measure system pressures and vent temperature. If needed, we evacuate and recharge the system with the correct refrigerant and oil, restoring factory-spec performance while protecting range and battery cooling support.

Headlight Restoration

Our Tesla Model S headlight restoration service removes the yellowing, haze, and oxidation that build up on the outer lens over time. We use a multi-step sanding, polishing, and sealing process to restore clarity, improve nighttime light output, and sharpen the beam pattern. The final UV-protective coating helps keep the lenses clearer longer, improving both safety and the overall appearance of your Model S.

Vehicle Detailing

Our Tesla Model S detailing service is a deep clean and cosmetic refresh inside and out. We hand wash and decontaminate the paint, clean and dress wheels and tires, and polish glass for maximum clarity. Inside, we vacuum, wipe down all surfaces, clean touchscreens carefully, and treat high-use areas to remove dust, smudges, and light stains. The result is a Model S that looks sharper, feels fresher, and better reflects the premium car youโ€™re driving.
