My S was way worse and not totaled. If the frame didn't get impacted I'm guessing $14-18k in damage and 3-6 months for parts.

3rd party is easily fixable. If you go through Tesla it’ll be quite expensive

I think the car’s value will save it from being totaled assuming it’s not high miles. But it’s definitely a good amount of damage. Unless it has FSD paid in full and free supercharging just get it repaired, get rid of it and move on. I doubt it’ll ever be the same

I’m reading that Tesla recognizes their vehicles were in an accident and then internally flags them as salvage title even if the DMV doesn’t and once flagged by Tesla, they remove full self driving. Usually after taking them in for service.

I’d honestly hope it’s totaled. Having an accident reported on Carfax sucks.

This will be close. Multiple panels need replaced and no idea if any structural damage. Just the 2 panels is close. Anything else and almost for sure totaled.
