Sell my Tesla Model S
Your Tesla Model S (2012-2024) is a electric luxury large sedan — and in San Diego County there is always another buyer for one that runs. Skip the listing, the messages, and the no-shows: one intake, one clear offer, free pickup.

We buy the cars the big guys reject — but we are not a junk buyer. These fall outside this buying program, and we would rather tell you now than waste your time:
The presenting door handles are a signature Model S failure point, with microswitches and small gears wearing so a handle extends but does not open the door, or stops extending at all. Multiple handles can fail over the life of an older car.
The center touchscreen on MCU1 cars suffers yellowing borders and a wearing eMMC memory chip that can cause slow boots, freezes, and loss of functions, which was the subject of a recall remedy. An MCU upgrade is the common long-term fix.
Many Model S cars have Smart Air Suspension, and aging air springs, lines, and compressors can leak and leave the car sitting low. Replacement parts and labor at a specialist add up quickly.
Early drive units were known for bearing noise and replacement under warranty, and all early packs have lost some range with age and mileage. Out-of-warranty pack or drive unit work is the biggest cost risk on a high-mile car.
Every one of these is a condition answer on the form — report it and it is priced in from the start, never discovered at pickup.
The Model S launched in 2012 as Tesla's flagship liftback sedan and went through continual battery and motor changes, including dual-motor all-wheel drive from late 2014 and a nose redesign for 2016. A major interior and powertrain refresh for 2021 brought the Plaid tri-motor version, a yoke-style steering control on early refreshed cars, and a horizontal center screen. Earlier cars are now well out of their original warranties.
For a Southern California buyer, documented battery range at a full charge, Supercharging history, and whether the MCU has been upgraded are central questions. Free Supercharging and driver-assistance features were tied to specific original-order terms on some early cars, so paperwork matters.
Enter the VIN to auto-fill the year, make, and model — or skip it for now and enter those details yourself. The VIN is optional at intake and mandatory before booking.
Answer the same 12 condition questions our buyer checks at pickup. The condition page defaults to no issues — open the checklist only if something applies.
See the offer path and share your number for follow-up. Any later changes wait for admin review.
Our buyer checks the VIN, title, mileage, and the same condition items you submitted for your Model S. If everything matches, you sign the transfer paperwork, receive payment, and hand over the keys — and the tow is free in San Diego County.
We buy Tesla Model S vehicles across the 2012-2024 range we commonly see, and we will look at older ones case by case. Condition matters more than the year — a high-mileage Model S that starts, drives, and has a working key is exactly what the form is for.
Yes to both — name the lender or pick the title situation that matches yours in the form. Complicated paperwork is part of what we handle, and we explain the correct next step before scheduling.
High mileage alone does not disqualify a Model S. If it starts, drives, and has a working key, report the mileage honestly in the form and we will price the whole car, not just the odometer.
Complete one vehicle intake, see your offer, and arrange free local pickup. No obligation, and no strangers coming to your door.
