Common Problems with the
2025 Tesla Model Y

Buying Tips for 2025 Tesla Model Y

• Test the ride quality over speed bumps; early Long Range and Performance models have notoriously harsh suspension.
• Check the huge single-piece glass roof for any stone chips or stress cracks, which are expensive to replace.
• Listen for a booming resonance in the cabin over rough roads, a known issue on early builds caused by tailgate misalignment.
• Inspect the alloy wheels, particularly the 20-inch Induction wheels, which protrude past the tyre and curb very easily.
• Verify that the motorized tailgate opens fully and closes without snagging or making grinding noises.
• Check for condensation inside the rear tail lights, a common minor fault that Tesla usually replaces under warranty.
