What We Do

Tesla Services & Outcomes.

Every service below states exactly what you walk away with.

Tesla EV Diagnostics

Warning messages, phantom drain, charging faults, drive-unit noise, suspension clunks, or a car that simply won't wake up — diagnosed on site by someone who worked on these vehicles daily.

What you get

  • A clear, plain-English explanation of what is actually failing
  • Written findings you can act on — including which parts are and aren't needed
  • A repair plan with what can be done mobile vs. what needs a facility
  • No guess-and-replace parts cannon

Tesla Pre-Purchase Inspection

Buying a used Model 3, Y, S or X — private party or dealership? Know the car before the money moves. We inspect it where it sits, before you sign.

What you get

  • Battery and charging health assessment with observed range behavior
  • Suspension, brakes, tires, and drive-unit condition review
  • Electrical, software, and error-history review
  • Body, glass, panel-gap and interior condition notes
  • A go / negotiate / walk-away recommendation

Tesla Repair & Maintenance

Suspension components, brake service, 12V/low-voltage batteries, cabin and HEPA filters, coolant service, and common wear items — completed mobile where practical.

What you get

  • Correct parts and torque specs, done to trained standards
  • No service-center drop-off, loaner juggling, or wait times
  • Straight answers about what can wait and what can't

Tesla Second Opinion

Handed a four- or five-figure estimate? Get an experienced independent read before you approve it.

What you get

  • Independent verification of the diagnosis
  • Clarity on whether the quoted repair is actually required
  • Alternatives, when reasonable ones exist

Common Tesla Problems

What Minnesota Tesla owners call about.

These are the issues we see most often across the Twin Cities and greater Minnesota. Recognize yours? Send it over with one click and it carries into the inquiry form.

12V battery keeps dying or the car won't wake up

Low-voltage battery failure and parasitic drain are the single most common Tesla complaints we see. Usually diagnosed and replaced in one mobile visit.

Charging faults or slower charging than normal

Charge port faults, cable and connector wear, onboard charger issues and home-circuit problems all look identical from the driver's seat. Testing tells them apart.

Send this inquiry

Suspension clunks, knocks or uneven ride height

Control arms, links and bushings are a known Tesla wear point, especially on Minnesota roads and winter salt. Most are mobile-repairable.

Send this inquiry

Brake noise, dragging or seized calipers

Regenerative braking means Tesla brakes get used lightly and corrode heavily in Minnesota winters. Service and caliper work is done on site.

Send this inquiry

Warning messages you can't decode

Alerts like drive-power-reduced or vehicle-may-not-restart deserve an experienced read before you spend money on parts.

Range loss or phantom drain

We look at observed range behavior, standby draw and charge habits before anyone starts talking about a battery pack.

Why Independent Mobile

Why Tesla owners choose us.

Dealer-level training, independent pricing

The same diagnostic approach used inside the manufacturer's own service network, without the service-center overhead or the multi-week wait for an appointment slot.

Your driveway is the service bay

No tow, no loaner shuffle, no half a day in a waiting room. Most diagnostics and a large share of repairs happen exactly where the vehicle is parked.

Nothing is scheduled before you agree

Every inquiry is reviewed personally. Scope, expectations, any travel fee, and the visit window are confirmed with you on a phone consultation first.

Service Area
