Solutions for rapid Tesla steering wheel wear

The steering wheel seems to be one of the components where Tesla still has room for improvement. Again and again, drivers report clearly visible Tesla steering wheel wear, which occurs after a relatively short time and thus much earlier than would be expected under normal circumstances. We show solutions for the case that the Tesla steering wheel is broken.

Tesla steering wheel leather comes loose

The problem often starts with the steering wheel cover detaching from the actual steering wheel body and making ever-increasing waves. This causes the leather to shift or, in extreme cases, fall off the wheel completely.

Tesla steering wheel wear - what to do

The obvious solution in this case is to have the Tesla steering wheel reupholstered. If the vehicle is still under warranty, which is likely to be the case in most cases, Tesla will usually take care of the repair without any problems - whereby the entire steering wheel is usually replaced directly.

As this is a fairly minor repair, a mobile Tesla Ranger can take care of the problem and save you a trip to the service center. Here you can read how to make an appointment with a Tesla Ranger .

If the damage only occurs after the warranty has expired (and therefore after a reasonable period of time), you will unfortunately be stuck with the costs. However, there are plenty of workshops that fit new leather.

And if you already have to deal with your steering wheel, you can at least upgrade it - we have the right Alcantara steering wheel set for it.
