Consumer Description
We bought a 2022 Tesla Y performance in August 2023. Love the car but customer service in the service center is and has been beyond horrible and frustrating. We had a back seat (driver side) panel that was not snapped in properly. In November 2023 we took it to a service center so they could fix it. They said they needed to order the part and they would send someone to come to our house to fix it. On 2 different occasions someone came to our house to fix it. The first service tech replaced the bottom piece but it wasn’t snapping in securely so he said they need to order the middle piece. The 2nd service tech came to the house and said they did not send him with the correct part and he will schedule an appt for us to come to the service center. We scheduled an appt to go to ant other service center (an hour away) and they had our car for a couple hours and gave us a loaner. When my husband went to pick it up they did not fix the panel and it was not snapped in correctly. We have a picture of it. They said they would have to order the part and schedule us to come back to fix it. We went back and they said it would be 2 hours and my husband was already waiting an hour. They did not fix it and we left. Very rude customer service.
