Parts And Accessories - Tesla S Owner's Manual

Parts, Accessories, and
Modifications
Use only genuine Tesla parts and accessories.
Tesla performs rigorous testing on parts to ensure
their suitability, safety, and reliability. Purchase
these parts from Tesla, where they are
professionally installed and where you can receive
expert advice about modifications to Model S.
Tesla is unable to assess parts manufactured by
other distributors and therefore accepts no
responsibility if you use non-Tesla parts on Model S.
Warning: Installing non-approved parts and
accessories, or performing non-approved
modifications, can affect the performance of
Model S and the safety of its occupants. Any
damage caused by using or installing non-
approved parts, or by performing non-
approved modifications, is not covered by the
warranty.
Warning: Tesla does not accept liability for
death, personal injury or damage that occurs if
you use or install non-approved accessories or
make non-approved modifications.
Body Repairs
If Model S is in a collision, contact Tesla to ensure
that it is repaired with genuine Tesla parts. Tesla
has selected collision repair centers that meet strict
requirements for training, equipment, quality, and
customer satisfaction.
Some repair shops and insurance companies might
suggest using non-original equipment or salvaged
parts to save money. However, these parts do not
meet Tesla's high standards for quality, fit and
corrosion resistance. In addition, non-original
equipment and salvaged parts (and any damage or
failures they might cause) are not covered by the
warranty.
