Follow up: Our first Tesla Mobile Service call went smoothly
Posted By RichC on April 29, 2026
Our first Tesla Mobile Service call went well. The car was parked outside the garage and the technician arrived within the 7AM – 12PM estimated time — he actually arrived at 11:30AM and was finished by noon.
Since I was working from home, I decided to talk to him a bit to see if he was willing to share some wisdom as to what else I should be looking for?
First off was the “the car is pretty good at detecting problems” comment, but then he offered some thoughts as to what vehicle an options he chose for his family. Due to tire wear, he recommended the long range Model Y with 19” wheels in the “Chill Mode” if the expensive tires are a concern (it was what he chose). Other than that, he said rotating tire front to rear on each side every 6500 miles seems to extend the tire wear, but then commented that he’s seen tire last as little as 10,000 miles or as long as 50,0000 — suspected driving style. Good to know.
