2021 Tesla Model 3 Long Range AWD Electric · JV02 CAT

The vehicle is currently roadworthy but the maintenance trend shows a worsening pattern regarding consumable component management. While the most recent test in May 2026 at 75,504 miles passed, it revealed multiple advisories for nearside front and both rear tyres being worn close to the legal limit and unevenly. This mirrors the January 2025 test at 63,301 miles where the nearside front tyre also failed, suggesting a persistent lack of proactive tyre replacement or alignment attention. The mileage is high for a five-year-old vehicle, averaging over 15,000 miles per year. There is a significant spike in usage between February 2024 and August 2025, where the car covered 13,839 miles in just sixteen months, followed by another 12,258 miles in the subsequent nine months. This high rate of mileage accumulation places accelerated stress on the suspension and braking systems, which is consistent with the recurring issues noted in the record. A buyer must conduct a thorough physical inspection of the suspension geometry, specifically addressing the January 2025 advisory regarding the offside rear suspension arm pin or bush. Although this did not result in a failure at the time, high-mileage EVs often experience rubber degradation in these bushings. The recurring wear patterns on multiple tyres also indicate a likely need for a professional wheel alignment check, which will continue to cause premature failure of new tyres if not corrected.
