Warranty
Basic Vehicle Limited Warranty
Subject to separate coverage for certain parts and the exclusions and limitations described in this
New Vehicle Limited Warranty and any minimum period which may be required by your local law,
the Basic Vehicle Limited Warranty covers the repair or replacement necessary to correct defects
in the materials or workmanship of any parts manufactured or supplied by Tesla that occur under
normal use for a period of 4 years or 80,000 km (50,000 miles), whichever comes first.
Supplemental Restraint System Limited Warranty
Subject to the exclusions and limitations described in this New Vehicle Limited Warranty and any
minimum period which may be required by your local law, the SRS Limited Warranty covers the
repair or replacement necessary to correct defects in the materials or workmanship of the
vehicle’s seat belts or air bag system manufactured or supplied by Tesla that occur under normal

Battery Limited Warranty
The Model S lithium-ion battery (the “Battery”) is an extremely sophisticated powertrain
component designed to withstand extreme driving conditions. You can rest easy knowing that
Tesla’s state-of-the-art Battery is backed by this Battery Limited Warranty, which covers the
repair or replacement of any malfunctioning or defective Battery, subject to the limitations
described below. If your Battery requires warranty service, Tesla will repair the unit, or replace it
with a factory reconditioned unit that has an energy capacity at least equal to that of the original
Battery before the failure occurred. To provide you with even more assurance, this Battery
Limited Warranty will also cover damage to your vehicle from a Battery fire even if it is the result
of driver error. (Coverage will not extend to damage that had already been sustained before a
Battery fire occurred, or to any damage if the Battery fire occurred after your vehicle had already
been totaled.) Your vehicle’s Battery is covered under this Battery Limited Warranty for a period
of 8 years or for the number of km/miles specified below for your Battery configuration,
whichever comes first:
•
•
60 kWh - 200,000 km (125,000 miles)
85 kWh - unlimited km/miles
Despite the breadth of this warranty, damage resulting from intentional actions (including
intentionally abusing or destroying your vehicle or ignoring active vehicle warnings), a collision or
accident (excluding from Battery fires as specified above), or the servicing or opening of the
Battery by non-Tesla personnel, is not covered under this Battery Limited Warranty.
In addition, damage resulting from the following activities is not covered under this Battery
Limited Warranty:
•
Exposing the vehicle to ambient temperatures above 60°C (140°F) or below -30°C (-22°F) for
more than 24 hours at a time;
•
Physically damaging the Battery, or intentionally attempting, either by physical means,
programming, or other methods, to extend (other than as specified in your owner
documentation) or reduce the life of the Battery;
•
•
Exposing the Battery to direct flame (excluding from Battery fires as specified above); or,
Flooding of the Battery.
The Battery, like all lithium-ion batteries, will experience gradual energy or power loss with time
and use. Loss of Battery energy or power over time or due to or resulting from Battery usage, is
NOT covered under this Battery Limited Warranty. See your owner documentation for important
information on how to maximize the life and capacity of the Battery.
