2014 Tesla Model S Electricity · LC64 OTT

The vehicle achieved a clean pass on 1 December 2025 at 211,217 miles, indicating a positive shift in mechanical upkeep after a period of neglect. Maintenance trends are clearly resolving, as the serious failures recorded in late 2023 and 2024 have been rectified to produce a defect-free certificate. This recent success suggests the owner addressed the outstanding safety issues, though the high mileage warrants close scrutiny of consumable parts. Usage intensity is exceptional for a 12-year-old chassis, with the odometer climbing from 195,957 miles in November 2023 to 211,217 miles by December 2025. This consistent accumulation of over 17,000 miles per year rules out long periods of standing still but implies significant wear on the suspension and braking systems. The record shows no unexplained gaps in testing, supporting a history of continuous, heavy-duty operation. A physical inspection should prioritise the front lower suspension arm bushes and rear anti-roll bar linkages, which the tester flagged for wear in November 2024. Despite the recent pass, the history of distorted rear road wheels and a parking brake efficiency failure in November 2024 necessitates a check for hub damage or residual caliper binding. Tyre management has been a recurring weak point, with past failures citing exposed ply and inner edge wear, so alignment and tyre condition must be verified to ensure the geometry is correct.
