2020 Tesla Model 3 Standard Range + Electricity · LG20 XGC

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, but the maintenance trend shows a clear decline regarding tyre management. While the most recent test in January 2026 at 40,951 miles passed, the tester flagged multiple advisories concerning uneven tyre wear. The offside front and nearside rear tyres were both noted as wearing smooth near the 3mm legal limit. This represents a worsening condition compared to the 2025 test at 33,684 miles, where only the offside front showed outer edge wear. The mileage pattern is consistent with a six-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 6,800 miles per year. The data shows steady usage between tests, with a 6,200-mile interval between February 2024 and January 2025, and another 7,300 miles between January 2025 and January 2026. This regularity suggests the car is used regularly rather than sitting for long periods, which is generally beneficial for battery health and mechanical seals, though the low annual mileage does not exempt mechanical failure. A buyer must prioritize inspecting the wheel alignment and suspension geometry. The recurring inner and outer edge wear on multiple tyres indicates an misalignment issue or worn suspension bushes and control arms. If the underlying cause is not addressed, the vehicle will continue to prematurely consume expensive EV tyres. Additionally, the TPMS light noted in 2023 at 21,478 miles should be verified to ensure all sensors are functional and that there are no slow leaks in the system.
