Tesla Model Y $24,000 Repair: Here's Everything You Need To Know

You may remember, it wasn't so long ago that we shared a story with you about a Tesla Model Y that was rear-ended for the second time. It wasn't drivable after the accident, thanks to a blown "pyro fuse." Needless to say, the whole situation turned out quite messy. If you haven't watched the previous video or read the related article, you can find a link to it at the bottom of this article.

At any rate, the collision was especially concerning since the Model Y's owner, Ryan Shaw, had previously rented out the electric crossover on Turo, which resulted in it being rear-ended for the first time. The Tesla, which Shaw hadn't yet owned very long, needed a $10,000 collision repair.

Fortunately, the Model Y's repair was covered by the at-fault driver's insurance, and Shaw also received loss of income and other monetary compensation. However, he was without his new Model Y for a very long period of time, only to have it heading right back into the shop following the second accident.
