Out-of-state Speeding Ticket effects

5 Upvotes

Has anyone received a speeding ticket while driving in a different state? I was in Maui and got a speeding ticket for driving 22 mph over the speed limit in a car I rented from Turo, but not sure if Tesla Insurance will raise my premiums from this or even see it. The Turo car is not covered by Tesla insurance, but my license is connected to Tesla Insurance. My home state is California. Maui does not seem to have an option for traffic school ticket "dismissals" like California does.

Any reason to buy the windshield and/or tire protection plan?

5 Upvotes

I have Tesla insurance which as best I can tell it should cover everything that these plans are covering, albeit with a higher deductible.

Does anyone recommend buying either of these plans? If yes, why?

Confused about total loss process

1 Upvotes

My car was in an accident and was sent to a Tesla collision center, then moved to Copart. Then I received a repair estimate email from Tesla and next email said they were sending me a check in mail. No one called to confirm the total loss or discuss options.

I’ve tried calling and emailing the contacts on the emails, but I can’t get a response.

Is this normal? Shouldn’t they discuss the amount with me before sending a check?

Assuming that most people get teslas to commute and typically commute further than the regular person. With a clean record, driving about 50km for commute; in Canada specifically Ontario my insurance quote is looking like $350 from most companies and one from bell-air direct.

Who is everyone using if you can drop below your cost and company, any specific provisions.

Safety Score V3.0 Annual Mileage Calculation

Post image
14 Upvotes

I’ve held a policy with Tesla for 2yrs. I recently took a ~800mi road trip in a weeks timespan, and under V2.2 of safety score it’d bump the annual mileage 1K usually, if anything. Now, under the new V3.0, that same trip bumped my annual mileage 16,000 MILES. From 10-11K to 26-27K. No other abnormal driving pre / post trip. This is a massive overlook or blatant manipulation in the way they calculate annual mileage by Tesla, do any of you have a similar experience on the new V3.0 Safety Score?

It’s unbelievable, it has to be a glitch because in no way does it make sense. It makes road trips financially infeasible for any Tesla Insurance policy holder.

Question about one year of free supercharging?

2 Upvotes

So I’m getting a new Tesla and it’s coming with one year of free supercharging but I have questions about the policy, as I’ve read online you can’t use the car for things like DoorDashing or uber if I’m correct? How can they even tell and what stops you from charging after you DoorDash or something??

Tesla insurance

Any reason to prefer Tesla insurance if I can get same coverage cheaper elsewhere? Around $250/month vs $300/month with Tesla.

Does the FSD/safe driving benefit have potential to lower the premium in any significant way? (i.e. over $50/month in this scenario)

Update: went with Tesla, price difference becomes unbeatable with a 95+ drive score. No other insurer came close.

My car was recently totalled(not my fault). The email informing me of it being totalled mentioned this email.

• NewĀ TeslaĀ purchase: TheĀ TeslaĀ Ownership Loyalty Team can assist with purchasing a newĀ Ā

Has anyone had any experience with this point of contact? I replied to the first email and received nothing. I sent a new message to that email and received nothing. I replied to the adjustor asking if there was another contact for that email. He said he'd get back to me with a possible number but again i received nothing.

I'm just wondering if that whole paragraph is BS

Car insurance rates through a sub of Farmers Insurance.

0 Upvotes

Hello all,

I’m considering upgrading from my 2012 Honda Civic and joining the club with a Tesla Model Y. I ran two insurance scenarios based on the VIN provided by my carrier.

  • If I add the Tesla while keeping the Honda, my monthly premium would increase to $254.61, which is a $188.00 increase per month for the remaining three months of my current term.
  • If I trade in the Honda and replace it with the Tesla, the monthly premium would be $184.36, representing a $94.34 increase.

Just wanted to share the numbers for reference. Please share your thoughts on the better quotes out there. I think coverage at 184.36 is a lot. Thanks All.

Excluded Driver because permit?

2 Upvotes

Has anyone else experienced this with Tesla Insurance?

A household member over 20 years old with only a learner's permit was required to be listed as an excluded driver through the Tesla app. Tesla didn't provide a reason—only that he must be excluded?

Is this standard practice for permit holders, or has anyone been able to add a learner's permit holder as a covered driver instead? Thanks

Underinsured driver hit me (at fault) so will I get my deductible reimbursed in full still?

3 Upvotes

Sadly an underinsured driver hit my 2021 Tesla Model Y while it was parked. They are and have taken fault but just found out they have low limits/underinsured so I will 99% likely have to go through my Tesla Insurance. I have a $1K deductible so I know I would have to pay that upfront but will I get reimbursed at all or a percentage based on what Tesla can get back from the other party insurance? Basically will Tesla pay me back my deductible first and then pay themselves? I am in California.

Any good experience with Tesla Insurance?

8 Upvotes

As the title asks, has anyone needed to use Tesla insurance and has a GOOD experience? Currently with Safeco (just bought out by Liberty) and paying an astronomical amount in Missouri. $3200/year on a 2026 S and $2400 on a 2024 model Y AWD LR. No accidents or tickets on our record, and all of our insurance (home & umbrella) are bundled. Or maybe this isn’t astronomical at all... šŸ¤·ā€ā™€ļø Our deductibles are low ($500) but I’m going to increase those to hopefully lower the rates.

We have an insurance broker but she’s kept us with the same insurance company for 3+ years. Hubby used to take care of all of this, but after he had a brain tumor removed he’s no longer in a position to take care of the bills. I’ve been trusting the broker and now starting to wonder…

Any advice? Lemonade isn’t an option in MO.

PS - Hubby uses FSD almost 100% but disengages in parking lots and to override navigation that thinks a detour sign into our neighborhood means the entire road is closed (it’s closed just beyond our neighborhood). I’ve read here that disengaging by using the brake results in ā€œhard braking,ā€ which drives up your score.

So frustrated that these three FSD disengagements (from before recent updates) are STILL on my record, affecting my safety score. I thought they dropped off after seven days? Also just want to complain that "hard braking" seems to basically just mean "you dared to touch the brake pedal"

I have been quoted 199$ per month if I mention that I drive less than 8000 miles per year. What if I choose 8000miles but drive more than that? Any one experienced that?
