There is no maintenance. Owned a Model S for almost 6 years. I literally did zero maintenance. When I tried to bring it to Tesla for a maintenance appointment, they cancelled my appointment and told me that it is useless, and that they don’t do it anymore.

ICE is constant brake and oil changes just to start with.
