Tesla Model 3 Warranty Lawyers

Since its debut in 2017, Tesla’s Model 3 has dominated the electric car market in the United States. With long-range battery capabilities, a bevy of technological tricks, and a slick interior design, it’s little mystery why eco-conscious and forward-looking consumers flock to Tesla’s luxury offering.

But while driving a Model 3 off the lot for the first time is a thrill, what happens if you discover defects in the days, weeks, and months that follow?

Breach of Warranty Lawsuits

When you spend tens of thousands of dollars on a new car, it’s reasonable to expect that it will run well. Unfortunately, sometimes car buyers get stuck with defective vehicles. If you find that your Model 3 spends an inordinate amount of time getting repairs, you may have grounds for a breach of warranty lawsuit.

A car warranty is a promise by the manufacturer or seller that they will fix or replace defects, or that the vehicle will meet a certain quality, for a specified period of time. The federal government and all 50 states have laws that address product warranties.

The Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act protects consumers against defective products by allowing them to file a lawsuit against the warrantor. The owner must have first tried without success to get the problem fixed.

On the state level, “lemon laws” allow car buyers to replace or get a refund for a defective vehicle. Typically, a vehicle is classified as a lemon if it has a substantial defect covered by warranty that surfaces within a specific timeframe or mileage after purchase and the defect couldn’t be repaired despite numerous attempts.

Because federal and state laws are complex, it’s important to discuss your case with a breach of warranty attorney.

Tesla Model 3 Warranty

Tesla offers warranties for new and used Model 3 vehicles. New Model 3s are covered for four years or 50,000 miles, whichever comes first. The battery and drive unit are covered, too: eight years or 100,000 miles for the Standard Range Plus, and eight years or 120,000 miles for the Long Range, both with minimum 70% battery capacity retention. Used Model 3s come with the remainder of the car’s original four-year or 50,000-mile warranty, plus the balance of the existing battery and drive unit warranty.
