For free? You mean tire free or service to put new tire free? They repaired my 1 month new Tesla and charged me

Only service. I had 3 days to return the tire. So i scheduled the same day for them to come and install a new tire. The install was free, I paid for the new tire though. Or I could have taken the care anywhere else to get it replaced but I liked the idea of Tesla coming to my home to replace it for me.

Still new to the EV space (thinking of buying one), tesla owners should buy the tesla ones rather than this right? Even from a price perspective. Thanks

Though something to keep in mind - a different brand that can accommodate other EVs is nice to have. We have friends with other brands and they're able to also plug in. With an adapter, teslas can also use other chargers.

That's great, other than the fact Tesla does not even option run-flat tires. And it's highly recommended AGAINST running run-flats due to noise and efficiency concerns with the heavier/stiffer sidewalls.

I didn't know that, that's crazy. My EV doesn't have a backup tire but it has runflats. I can't imagine going to a long trip without some backup. I just assumed Tesla's have runflats too since they also didn't come up with a backup tire.

Any issues with the wifi on this one? Is scheduling delayed charging or setting a charge limit quick and easy to change on daily basis?

I had JuiceBox Pro 40 and wifi is so bad that I had to setup an wifi extender next to the EVSE just to get reliable wifi connection. The new JuiceBox app (Enel X Way) is garbage by the way. They moved to a new app which includes public paid charging stuff which I see it as complete bloat.

Tesla EV does not come with charger and no backup tire... crazy 😧

Not sure why it doesn't come with a charger (I assume true based on your claim) however it could be because of different installation methods or electrical codes from county to county, state to state? Not to mention some people might need hard wired while another person will be adapting a 115v plug, who knows. You'd think they would give you credit towards buying the charger of your choice though.

And lots of cars no longer come with a spare tire or 'donut.' I personally disagree with the practice in general but does make sense-ish on (some) vehicles where the front and rear tires are not the same size therefore a backup tire may not work for half of the vehicle.*

*As long as the manufacturer had enough sense to keep bolt patterns on the rims the same it would not matter much being a donut is already smaller than a standard tire anyway but I did have a Smart Car which stupidly did NOT have the same bolt pattern on the front vs rear. It came with a 12v inflator and a bottle of proprietary fix-a-flat. My neighbor's Dodge van was the same way. My Ram and two Jeeps all come with full size spares but on basic steel rims in contrast.

But "backup tire?" Never heard that one before.

Never seen any EV charger in store at least on the east coast.

if the smartphone does not come with charger, the vendor would be harder to sell

True, but unlike an electric car most people already have a dozen chargers at their house which will work on the smartphone. I'd probably be more mad about spending 50K on a car then having to spend another $500 on a charger than not having a 13th USB dongle. But either way it is pretty janky.

Nothing at Tesla is free. They will charge your for their own poor quality. Their warranty is trash.

Sounds like you lost a lot of money in Tesla stock
