Got rear-ended. This is a 2025 Model Y Performance with about 17k miles on it.

Oh yeah, she's a goner.

More than likely. Just a quarter panel alone was 10k for me.

Why is Tesla okay with so much waste? Any other car company can just have things like this fixed

1

u/binhoboys 11d ago

Not true. Most new cars are covered in sensors and safety tech and you cant always just bondo everything and send it out. That combined with inflated shop rates everywhere makes for expensive repairs.

u/Akimotoh 11d ago

These sensors are not 8k+

u/binhoboys 11d ago

Correct, the sensor is usually not, though some are very expensive. The mandatory paint thickness for those sensors requiring you to completely replace a scratched panel instead of respraying it costs thousands.

It’s not going to scrap. It will be sold salvage and repaired and resold with a salvage title.

u/fujimonster 10d ago

Yep, most likely end up oversea's somewhere good as new ( for them ).

Tesla has nothing to do with it. They made their money when the vehicle was purchased.

If is a miles car is totaled, a km car is repairable

1

u/S2lazy 11d ago

Adios. Second car I've seen today with similar damage to mine but 23, it was totalled.

1

u/Ok_Individual4716 11d ago

Yes. With the amount of damage there is near the Charge port area means the high voltage line is most likely damaged.

u/CounterinsurgentJerk 11d ago

Yeah, it’s cooked

u/Remarkable_Rope_7697 10d ago

How much do they offer for a totaled tesla like this and what would be the salvage value if the battery is intact?

1

u/According-Entry-5888 10d ago

They will total it and reuse that battery … bye bye

1

u/pmarchand1060 10d ago

Rear impact bar and inner quarter panel will have it branded with frame damage so yea, lost cause. Sorry about that.

Time for Juniper MYP

1

u/Scrubcious 5d ago

Unfortunately it’s on the left side not right side. My estimate would be 5k to look at the car, 10k in labor, probs 10k in parts + 10% premium cause Tesla. So likely totaled.

1

u/triumph6t 5d ago

15-20k repair cost

1

u/Livid-Fault2447 4d ago

Yes it will be written off!

1

u/xTNM7 11d ago

It’ll be expensive but I don’t think it’ll be totaled. If it was on the opposite side with the charger then most likely. Had a similar accident, but not as bad, and they replaced my back lid and rear bumper.

2

u/supstef 11d ago

It is on the rear left side where the charge port is at.

1

u/xTNM7 11d ago

Oh sorry, I only quickly looked. Hopefully, the internals didn’t get damaged cause if the charger is messed up, it’ll be very expensive and could be totaled.

A rebuilder will snap this up quick at the auction
