How a Tesla-approved repair is done
Tesla publishes a collision repair manual for each model and expects approved shops to follow it exactly. Here is what that means on your car.
- Tesla’s repair procedures, start to finish
Every repair follows Tesla’s collision repair manual for your model, including the structural repairs Tesla approves and the post-repair operations it lists.
- Tesla-approved parts, fasteners and fluids
Tesla does not support used, recycled or third-party parts. We use Tesla-approved parts and fasteners, and Tesla-approved chemicals, brake fluid and coolant.
- Certified aluminum and steel welders
Tesla requires technicians who perform structural work to hold I-CAR aluminum and steel welding certifications, renewed every three years.
- Equipment from Tesla’s approved lists
Frame benches, measuring systems and welders are the ones Tesla lists in its repair manuals, so measurements and welds meet Tesla’s specifications.
- A Tesla-approved paint system
Refinishing uses a paint system Tesla approves for its collision centers, matched to your car’s factory color.
- Every panel off for refinishing
Our own standard on top of Tesla’s: damaged panels come off the car to be painted, so the finish matches the factory everywhere you look.
Why Tesla, Inc. recommends an approved repair
Tesla tells owners to use Tesla or a Tesla-approved body shop after a collision so that genuine Tesla parts are used.
Tesla states that non-original or salvaged parts, and damage they cause, are not covered by the Tesla warranty.
Tesla warns that non-approved parts may not meet its standards for quality, fit and corrosion resistance.
