EV Repairs Are on the Rise

But with all this advanced technology, sometimes the fix is simpler than it seems.

Take, for example, a recent visit from a Tesla owner at Copperstate Auto and Fleet. The driver had been dealing with overheating issues, and after contacting Tesla directly, was told that the radiator or radiator filter might need replacing, a fix that could have easily cost hundreds of dollars. Thankfully, the customer brought their vehicle to Copperstate for a second opinion.

After a thorough inspection, the team discovered that the radiator didn’t need to be replaced at all. It just needed a good cleaning. That one simple service not only solved the overheating problem, but it also saved the customer hundreds of dollars and avoided an unnecessary repair. As EVs become more complex, so does diagnosing and repairing them. But this story is a great reminder that the right expertise can make all the difference, not just in performance, but in protecting your wallet, too.

If you’re an EV owner in Arizona, Copperstate Auto and Fleet is equipped to help you make smart, cost-effective decisions about your vehicle, without the dealership upsell.
