Happy to help. You will find one.

I got mines with all those features, what i did also to verify if it is still transferable is i called tesla it self and asked them if it will be transferable and after giving them the vin and all those they told me... so i bought it and bingo it was transferred.

What about a later model newer than 2017 that has it in the previous owner's name? Will that transfer fine to me upon purchase if I get them to do it? The dealer kept that owner's info intact ;-) Just making sure, 'cause it's not a 2017 or earlier ya know? So they got the supercharging through a referral or something. Thanks!

Is it true that if you take one of these free supercharging Model S’s to a service center, they’re going to basically hold the car hostage telling you that they have to remove the free supercharging otherwise they won’t service the car?

A much wiser decision!

I agree

Thanks for sharing. But since its 2017 model it can lack new features or upgrades that tesla did in these 7 years. Plus tesla has battery and drive unit warranty for 8 years when you buy new one so in this case only 1 year battery warranty is left now. Need to think these factors too before buying 2016/17 used tesla car now.

This is true but it has all the self driving features and you can upgrade the head unit for $1000. Not a bad deal for free power. Also Tesla was offering 6 years free supercharging for people that trade their free supercharging car in on a newer model.

My only concern is this…what is the expected life of the vehicle? What do they mean by “life of the vehicle”? Life of the batteries? If you get to the point of having to change the entire battery pack, will you lose the free supercharging after installation of a new battery pack? If the latest model you can get with free supercharging is 2017 and it’s 2023, how much longer are 2017 and earlier models expected to be on the road with their original batteries and in original configuration?

I do not believe it is dependent on battery life. Meaning if you update the battery pack you should still have free supercharging. The free supercharging is assigned to the vehicle. If you have a bad part and replace it, motor or battery you still keep the free supercharging. I had one I replaced a motor on and did not affect the supercharger. Unless Tesla changes the rules, you can drive the thing for free until the wheels fall off. Haha

Hi, Who does the transfer in the app you as the new owner or the original owner? Secondly you mentioned you should make sure you used your real name in the app during transfer can you explain more please.

@JettersGarage

The current owner needs to transfer the app to your name. You need to make sure it is 100% correct or Tesla will need to recover account and you will need to show proof of transfer and ownership. Use a real persons name not the name of a dealership or company. Like John Smith, not Smith's auto account. Hope this is helpful.

Nice video! Very clear. But I still want to ask you one question that really confuses me. If a Tesla has free supercharging for life and it is sold to an independent dealer by the original owner. The car has been registered under the dealer's name, but the dealer doesn't add the car into their Tesla account (which means the car is still in the original owner's account). In this case, will the free supercharging be transferred to me if I buy this car?

@JettersGarage

It's my understanding that it would. I would ask them to transfer to you for verification if you plan to purchase. Most all the dealers do not leave the app in the past owners name. They transfer it to a dealer email which is when I understand it gets removed.

Thinking about buying a tesla. It ha s high miles and worried about battery degradation

I’ve put a deposit on a 2017 Model S from a BMW dealer and it had free supercharging as per the previous owner. They don’t know anything about Teslas at all. But I noticed when I go on the charging screen it just says please add a credit card. I think the old Owner reset the car or something. Does this mean the free supercharging is gone? Will appreciate your help! Deal closes Friday

The app needs to be transferred into your name from the last owner. If the app says free supercharging as features and specs when you transfer you are good to go.

Wait you said in the app it'll state if it has 'free super charging' buttttttt dont you have to buy the car to see all that info... How do you check if you dont own the car (still searching online).

You will ask the person selling the car to show you the features that the car comes with in the app. It will show free supercharging.

I bought my 2017 model s from Carvana and it still has free super charging. How do I transfer it to myself? I have know idea who the original owner is.

You should be able to go to a Tesla shop and ask how to transfer. The last owner clearly never transferred the app. As long as it's a person to person transfer you should be okay is my understanding. You can ask them hypothetically first.😎 Let me know how it goes.

So you had free supercharging? Then took the car in for service and Tesla took away the free supercharging?

Wait does free lifetime supercharging transfer to a new vehicle if you sell this one and get a new Tesla?

@@JettersGarage yes but no. If someone sells his Tesla to dealer, it's not possible to see the owner's page from the original owner. If the dealer registered it under its dealers app, Tesla might take away the sc01. The only way to verify is to take it to supercharger and try. But it will only guarantee whether the car have SC05 or not. No other ways to veryify SC01.

You don't need the app to charge the Tesla it's more of a convenience.

I’ve driven the Ford Lightening and all of the Tesla models. I couldn’t believe how cheap and toy-ish they are. The Lightening is SO MUCH more vehicle for the same money. Once you can charge a Lightening at the Tesla superchargers it’s a no brained to buy the lightening. The only advantage Tesla has is superchargers. I think you are a paid spokesperson for Tesla.

What if the owner changed his name😉😉

What is mind boggling is the fact that the electrical grid is 33% efficient. You have to burn three gallons of fuel to deliver 1 gallons worth of energy on site. A gas powered car is 30+% efficient. A modern gas engine is far less polluting than a coal or oil power plant. Where is the upside? No one is proposing the tripling of the electrical grid to even make this disaster possible.

That's because the electrical infrastructure is just starting so it's obvious that it will take more than it gives out at first, same when there was no gas cars and their infrastructure it took way way more than it would be beneficial but once it's all there then that's when it pays off.
