Maintenance and repairs are an inevitable part of car ownership, and when it comes to owning a Tesla, many wonder just how much they will have to spend on keeping their Electric Vehicle in top shape. Lucky, a 2016 Tesla Model X, has been on quite the journey, both literally and figuratively. With 127,238 miles on the odometer, Lucky has seen its fair share of maintenance and repairs over the years.
In a recent video on the Test Lucky YouTube channel, the owner detailed the various maintenance expenses that have been incurred since the last update. From air conditioning sensor replacements to a new charge port installation, Lucky has had its fair share of necessary repairs.
