A Tesla Model 3 owner found that he was having problems with his car battery due to hitting obstacles in his lane. When he went to the brand, to the official Tesla service center, they asked him for 13 thousand euros for the "arrangement". Questioning the amount requested, he asked for a quote from another workshop which asked him for "only" 590 euros.

As it was revealed, the Tesla battery began to lose fluid after the clash. As a solution, Tesla indicated that it will be necessary to replace the battery with a completely new one (there is no possibility of ordering).
