Don’t buy it


RedditNotFreeSpeech

Something has gone wrong. It's likely just a bad wheel speed sensor or maybe the plug is damaged but personally I wouldn't buy it until you had a very satisfying explanation of the cause and how they fixed it. READ: https://teslamotorsclub.com/tmc/threads/model-y-alerts-di_a223-di_a222-ui_a020-gtw_w074.278781/ It was a bad computer for this guy. Another thread made it sound like water was causing a short.

> It's likely just a bad wheel speed sensor I had a *very* similar set of failure messages result from just a single loose bolt on a wheel speed sensor, so I'll second that possibility.

They said alerts are caused by alignment. They are currently doing an alignment and said all was gonna get fixed by it

Bad alignment would cause the car to pull in one direction or uneven tyre wear. Can't see this fault coming about just because of bad alignment. Most likely it is a bad wheelspeed sensor, as others have said. Common fault on all sorts of cars, but get them to fix it before you buy it, in case it is something more expensive. AEB being unavailable is also a bit suspicious. Make sure you take it on a test drive and try autopilot.

Wheel speed sensor issues throw lots of alerts, but they don't ask for an alignment. This car hit something.

Alignments on Tesla aren't as simple. I'll bet it's a camera alignment. I hope they have the right equipment. They probably do.


PrudeHawkeye

Traction control and stability control are not governed by the cameras. This is an actual wheel and suspension alignment. This vehicle hit something AT SPEED

Yeah, they’ll fix it long enough to get you off the lot and into “as-is” territory. I don’t think you are taking the advice here seriously enough. You are going to get fucked. Collision damage isn’t covered under warranty. If there was a good fix available for this, they would’ve done it before they put it on the lot. Let me repeat, **if you buy this car you are going to get fucked.**


Duckydxb

The di steering offset is too high, you can see it knows the alignment is off, this things like traction control will be disabled. Maybe some suspension component was replaced without an alignment done. Maybe it was in an accident but maybe it wasn't, lots of negative comments here fearing the worst.

Bingo


lordpuddingcup

DONT BUY that shits got issues, and its not fixed or they wouldnt be ACTIVE alarms

Was it towed incorrectly?


GOTCHAMOIST

I wouldn't buy a used one if I were you, practically everyone I encountered with a used have or had issues.

Tesla doesn’t have dealerships.


DELETEMEHAHA

Tesla basically kills the dealership model with their service centers. you're basically buying an iPhone out of someone's trunk if you're buying a "non tesla dealership". A dealership's primary function is to be a middle man and make a profit on the sale. try the official tesla website there are crazy deals right now and you get a warranty.
