Your Tesla Doesn’t Need Oil Changes.

That Doesn’t Mean Nothing Wears Out.

Tesla ownership comes with fewer traditional maintenance items, but tires, suspension components, brakes, wheel bearings, A/C systems, filters and other parts still wear out.

And when something does need attention, getting an appointment with Tesla — or finding an experienced independent repair shop that works on Teslas, isn’t always easy.

Now you have another option.

Ramsey Auto Center provides independent Tesla service, maintenance and repair for Model S, Model 3, Model X and Model Y vehicles in Glendale and throughout the West Valley.

Independent Tesla Service Without the Runaround

We’ve been repairing vehicles in Glendale since 1977, and the technology has changed quite a bit since then.

Our philosophy hasn’t.

Diagnose the problem correctly. Recommend only what the vehicle actually needs. Treat people honestly. Respect their time and their money.

That same approach now applies to Tesla vehicles.

Our technicians have access to Tesla-specific service information and diagnostic capabilities, including Tesla Service Mode and Tesla Toolbox diagnostics, allowing us to properly evaluate many of the problems Tesla owners encounter.

Tesla Services We Offer

Tesla Diagnostics

Warning messages and alerts on a Tesla can involve multiple vehicle systems. We use Tesla-specific diagnostic information and testing to determine what is actually causing the problem before recommending a repair.

We diagnose first. We don’t just start replacing parts.

Tesla Tires

No oil changes? Great.

Unfortunately, your tires didn’t get the memo.

Tesla vehicles are heavy, powerful and capable of delivering instant torque. Tire condition and proper alignment are especially important for handling, ride quality and tire life.

Tesla tire replacement
Tire rotations
Tire balancing
Flat tire repair when appropriate
Tire wear diagnosis
Tire pressure and TPMS service
Tread-depth inspections

If your Tesla seems to be going through tires unusually quickly, let us take a look before simply installing another set.

Tesla Wheel Alignments

Uneven inside tire wear is easy to miss until the tire is nearly worn out.

If your Tesla is pulling, the steering wheel is off-center, you've recently replaced suspension components, or you're seeing unusual tire wear, we can inspect the vehicle and perform a proper wheel alignment when needed.

A good alignment can improve handling while helping protect a very expensive set of tires.

Tesla Suspension Repair

That squeak, clunk or rattle isn't part of the electric-car experience.

Tesla suspension components still live in the same world of potholes, speed bumps and Arizona roads as every other vehicle.

We diagnose and repair many common suspension and steering concerns, including:

Control arms
Ball joints
Bushings
Stabilizer links
Shocks and struts
Steering components
Wheel hubs and bearings
Suspension noises
Uneven tire wear

If something is making noise, bring it in before replacing parts based on an internet diagnosis.

Tesla Brake Service

Regenerative braking may reduce the amount you use your traditional brakes, but your Tesla still has a complete hydraulic braking system that requires inspection and service.

We provide:

Brake inspections
Brake pads
Brake rotors
Caliper service
Brake fluid testing and service
Brake noise diagnosis

We'll inspect the system and tell you what it actually needs — not sell you a complete brake job just because the car is on the lift.

Tesla A/C & Climate Control Repair

A Tesla with a broken air conditioner in Arizona becomes a very expensive solar oven.

We diagnose Tesla heating and air-conditioning concerns, including poor cooling, unusual noises, refrigerant problems, electrical faults and other climate-control issues.

Proper A/C operation is about more than comfort on many EVs because vehicle thermal-management systems are considerably more sophisticated than those found in traditional vehicles.

Tesla Low-Voltage Battery & Electrical Service

Even an electric vehicle needs a low-voltage electrical system.

We can diagnose many low-voltage battery, charging, electrical and accessory concerns and determine whether the problem is actually the battery or something else in the system.

Because replacing the obvious part isn't always the same thing as fixing the problem.

Tesla Wheel Bearings & Hubs

Humming, growling or vibration that changes with vehicle speed can indicate a wheel-bearing or hub problem.

Our technicians can inspect and diagnose wheel hubs and bearings and replace worn components when necessary.

Tesla Cabin Air Filters

Your Tesla may not need an engine air filter or oil filter, but it definitely still has cabin filtration.

We replace Tesla cabin air filters and applicable HEPA filters to help maintain proper airflow and interior air quality.

Tesla Cooling System Service & Repair

Electric vehicles don't have traditional engine cooling systems, but they absolutely still depend on thermal management.

We can diagnose many coolant leaks, cooling-system concerns and related components using the proper service procedures and equipment.

Tesla Wipers & Everyday Maintenance

Sometimes a Tesla just needs normal car stuff.

We can also help with:

Windshield wipers
Washer-system concerns
Tire pressure
Fluid inspections
General mechanical inspections
Routine maintenance
Noise and vibration concerns

Tesla Maintenance

Tesla vehicles don't follow the traditional “oil change every few thousand miles” maintenance schedule, but there are still maintenance items owners shouldn't ignore.

Depending on your Tesla model, year, mileage and driving conditions, maintenance may include:

Tire rotations and tread inspections
Wheel alignments
Cabin air filters
HEPA filters where equipped
Brake-fluid health checks
Brake inspections and service
Wiper blades
A/C and climate-control service
Suspension and steering inspections

We'll inspect your vehicle and recommend maintenance based on what it actually needs.

Try Our Tesla Health Check

Not sure what condition your Tesla is in?

Ask about our Tesla Health Check.

We can inspect key mechanical and maintenance items including:

Tesla diagnostic alerts
Tire condition and tread depth
Uneven tire wear
Suspension and steering components
Brakes
Wheel bearings
Low-voltage system
Fluid levels
Cabin filtration
Underbody condition
General mechanical condition

It's a simple way to find small problems before they become expensive ones.

Buying a Used Tesla?

Tesla Pre-Purchase Inspections

A clean screen and a shiny exterior don't tell you what's happening underneath the car.

Before buying a used Tesla, have Ramsey Auto Center inspect it.

We'll evaluate major mechanical systems, tires, suspension, brakes, visible underbody condition and available diagnostic information to help you make a more informed buying decision.

Buying the inspection is a lot cheaper than buying somebody else's problems.

Why Tesla Owners Choose Ramsey Auto Center

Serving Glendale Since 1977

We've been repairing vehicles long enough to remember when a computer in a car sounded futuristic.

Today we're using computer diagnostics to service Teslas.

Some things change. Doing business honestly shouldn't.

ASE-Certified Technicians

Our experienced technicians combine traditional mechanical knowledge with modern diagnostic technology.

We Diagnose Before We Replace

A trouble code or warning message is a starting point — not a parts list.

We test the vehicle and determine what actually failed.

We Respect Your Money

We don't recommend repairs simply because we can.

If it doesn't need it, we're going to tell you.

We Respect Your Time

We know you have better things to do than spend your day sitting in an automotive waiting room.

Ask us about our courtesy shuttle and rideshare options when scheduling your appointment.
