2017 Tesla Model S Electricity · ES02 AMS

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, but the maintenance trend shows a shift toward reactive repairs regarding consumable components. The most recent test in December 2025 at 59,025 miles passed with several advisories concerning thin rear brake pads and uneven tyre wear across three wheels. This indicates that while the car remains legal for the road, the owner is only now addressing wear-and-tear items as they reach critical thresholds, rather than performing proactive preventative maintenance. The mileage pattern is consistent with a nine-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 6,500 miles per annum. Between December 2022 and December 2025, the car covered 15,330 miles, representing a steady usage rate of roughly 5,100 miles per year. This low mileage generally reduces mechanical strain on the electric drivetrain and suspension, but it can also lead to accelerated degradation of rubber-based components and corrosion on brake discs, which is evidenced by the pitting seen in the historical records. A buyer must focus their physical inspection on the front braking system and suspension geometry. The record shows a failure in late 2022 due to a fluctuating offside front service brake and scored discs, which suggests potential issues with caliper sticking or uneven heat distribution. Recurring advisories for tyres worn on the edge or feathered in both 2022 and 2025 strongly suggest a persistent alignment issue or worn suspension bushings. You should specifically inspect the inner edges of the tyres for irregular wear and verify the control arm bushings for signs of tearing or premature failure.
