$299 at our Long Beach shop, $399 anywhere in LA. A Tesla-trained technician, factory diagnostics, and a written verdict within 24 hours: buy, negotiate to $X, or walk away.
Paste the VIN or plate from the listing. We'll decode the real config and list what to check on that exact car. No email, no charge.
The VIN is on the listing, the windshield, or the driver's door jamb.
A written, branded verification report: the battery measured, the software checked against the car, the history read by people who've seen its siblings at auction. It ends with a verdict, not a shrug. When the verdict is a number, that number is your negotiating leverage.
The one on the right is a sample. 154 real ones have ended exactly the same way.
A link or a VIN is enough. We'll flag the obvious problems before anyone drives anywhere. Sometimes the check ends right there, free.
At our shop if the seller will bring it (they should want to), or our technician comes to the car anywhere in the LA area. About 90 minutes on factory tools.
A written, branded report within 24 hours. No "previous insurance event recorded" euphemisms. It says buy, negotiate to a number, or walk away.
154 of our last 564 checks ended that way, and most of the rest ended with "negotiate." That's the used-Tesla market. When your finalist fails, the Concierge finds you one that passes: every channel in LA, shortlist in 72 hours, the check of the finalist included. $899 flat.
A pre-purchase inspection built specifically for used Teslas: $299 if the car comes to our Long Beach shop, $399 if our technician goes to the car anywhere in the LA area. You get a written report within 24 hours with a clear verdict: buy, negotiate to a specific number, or walk away.
A generalist checks tires, brakes, and body panels. We do that too, and then measure battery health in Service Mode, confirm whether FSD or Autopilot software actually transfers to you, decode the hardware version and trim traps, and look for the auction-grade signs of a hidden rebuild. None of that is on a generalist's checklist.
Yes. Fixed-price platforms won't negotiate, but the check still tells you whether the battery, software, and history are what the listing claims — before your return window becomes your only defense.
That's a verdict in itself. A private seller with nothing to hide has no reason to refuse a shop check by a licensed dealer. We'd tell you to walk.
The report is your negotiating leverage: every documented defect is a discount, and we state the number we'd negotiate to. If the car is a 'run,' the Concierge can find you one that passes: full search, shortlist in 72 hours, $899 flat.
The decoded configuration — year, model, trim, drivetrain — plus the Tesla-specific things worth checking on that exact car: battery age and pack type, FSD-transfer risk, Autopilot hardware era, Highland vs pre-Highland, and hidden-repair red flags common in LA. No email, no charge.
The things that actually kill deals: measured battery health, whether the FSD license will transfer to you, and evidence of hidden bodywork. A VIN never shows those — that's what the physical Tesla Check is for.
Send us the listing first. Checks usually happen within a day or two. Sellers who are serious make time.
