2022 Tesla Model 3 — rear tires are disappearing faster than expected — buyer question from Dallas

OP update: scanned the 2022 Tesla Model 3 again and still only have the one pending code, no new lights. Trying not to diagnose from the couch.

Low-voltage gremlins will strand you even with a full pack. Try a second charger before blaming the 2022 Tesla Model 3 — site sharing and pack temp change the curve a lot. I'd do that before spending real money. Write the result down so the next test isn't a repeat of the last one. If that fails I'll eat the diagnostic fee.

Don't clear the alert just to make the screen pretty. Leave the alerts on the 2022 Tesla Model 3 so service can see what you saw. That's where I'd start. This is from a 2022 Tesla Model 3 in Dallas. I'd want that in writing, not as a promise. I'd sleep better after that step, even if it finds nothing. I'll poke at it this weekend.

I'd do that before spending real money. This is from a 2022 Tesla Model 3 in Dallas. Verbal 'we'll take care of it' is not a plan. I've seen both outcomes, which is why I'd test instead of assume. I'd rather pay for diagnosis than a second guess-repair.

Just my two cents from doing this recently. I'd sleep better after that step, even if it finds nothing. Trying not to diagnose from the couch.

I went back under the 2022 Tesla Model 3 and it only happens after a heat soak, not on a cold start. Cold start is when I can actually reproduce it.

Charge curves lie if you don't match starting SOC and temp. Match starting SOC and battery temp if you're comparing 2022 Tesla Model 3 charge sessions. Then you'll know the next fork. No need to make it theatrical. That's my plan before I call anyone.

Don't clear the alert just to make the screen pretty. Leave the alerts on the 2022 Tesla Model 3 so service can see what you saw. I'd do that before spending real money. Post the numbers (or the code) and people can get more specific. I'd sleep better after that step, even if it finds nothing. Heat soak after errands is the other window.

I'd treat 12V warnings as a no-ignore. On the 2022 Tesla Model 3, I'd get the 12V/DC-DC side checked even if the traction pack looks fine. Then you'll know the next fork. On “rear tires are disappearing faster than expected,” that was the fork that mattered for me. Do that first. I'm keeping receipts and dates in one folder.
