Tesla Service in Albany, CA
Tesla is a marvel of engineering, and being an electric vehicle, some automotive maintenance tasks, like oil change or spark plugs replacement, are a thing of the past. On the other hand, many familiar maintenance services are still applicable to Tesla vehicles. Adams Autoworx Albany is one of few independent auto repair shops in the Bay Area that offer Tesla maintenance service.
EVs in general, and Tesla in particular, use regenerative braking to convert some of the kinetic energy back into electricity - while slowing down the vehicle at the same time. As a result, Tesla brake pads tend to last much longer than in cars powered by conventional engines. But brake service is just as important. While your Tesla will not undergo brake pads replacement every couple of years, you should still bring your Tesla to our shop for periodic brake system check, including brake fluid testing. Tesla vehicle have fantastic acceleration, but they also need brakes in top condition to decelerate when needed.
Tesla is a heavy vehicle, so suspension service and repair (especially given the sorry state of the Bay Area roads) is almost a given. The same applies to tires – heavy vehicles tend to wear out tires at a faster pace. We can provide your Tesla with new tires (Michelin or Continental), as well as wheel alignment. If you are experiencing problems with TPMS sensor, we can take care of that as well. We offer Tesla tire rotation at our Albany auto repair shop.
Naturally, over time the cabin air filter will need replacement. There is no reason to wait for an appointment at the Tesla service center, when you can call Adams Autoworx and have Original Equipment quality air filter installed in your Tesla.
We left the subject of wiper blades for the end of this page, yes, the lowly wiper blades. They are vital to your safety. It’s not only that your ability to see is negatively impacted if wiper blades are not in top condition. AAA has found that rain can have negative impact on the performances of ADAS (Advanced Driver Assistance Systems). Tesla’s autopilot uses cameras that are positioned behind the windshield – so your Tesla needs wiper blades that keep the windshield clear and free of streaks – this is important for system performance and for your safety.
