Description
Many early Tesla Model S owners frequently encounter the frustrating experience of the self-presenting door handles failing suddenly. The initial design of the Model S door handle incorporated lower-quality, cast components, resulting in frequent failures. Tesla addressed this issue with the introduction of third-generation Model S door handles.
For those covered under warranty, the solution is straightforward: contact the service center and schedule a replacement appointment. However, owners of early Model S vehicles with first and second-generation door handles often faced costly bills exceeding $1000.
