Re:Tesla’s $16k Quote for a $700 Fix Is Why Right to Repair ... by majormajor on Monday July 12, 2021 @05:17PM (#27815253)
Does Tesla then have a separate workflow that re-uses the components of the "broken" 16K battery pack? Seems like that is necessary in order for spending an extra 15K in parts to be worth more than training some more people to repair them...

but then in that case, the sticker price of the repair also doesn't seem like it should be 16k, since Tesla's taking the old battery and capturing that side of the value too.
