EV repair after the factory warranty ends

Keep your EV on the road at a fair price after the factory stops paying. We still check your VIN first, because battery and drive unit coverage often outlasts the basic warranty and recalls never expire. For everything that really is on you, we lay out the options, new, remanufactured or used, with a written price for each.

Out of warranty EV repair

  • Run your VIN for remaining coverage, extended coverage on the battery and drive unit, and open recalls before we quote
  • Diagnose the fault completely so you are not paying to replace a part that was not the problem
  • Repair or replace drive units, onboard chargers, DC-to-DC converters, thermal pumps and charge ports
  • Offer battery repair at the module level where the pack design allows it, and full pack replacement when it does not
  • Source new, remanufactured or tested used parts, with the price and warranty of each in writing
  • Give second opinions on dealer or service center quotes, with our own written price to compare
  • Handle the everyday jobs that keep an aging EV going: 12V batteries, brakes, tires, suspension and A/C

Signs you need this

  • Your EV is past the basic warranty and a big repair just came up
  • You got a quote from the dealer or service center and want a second opinion
  • You bought a used EV without a warranty and something failed
  • You drive rideshare and the miles ran the warranty out early
  • A part you thought was covered was denied and you need another way

Out of warranty still starts with a warranty check, since recalls and longer battery coverage surprise people in a good way. Anything that is truly on you gets a written price before we start, with each option side by side. Tax applies to parts only. You pick the warranty on our work: 90 days, 1 year or 2 years.

Questions people ask

My basic warranty ended. Is my battery still covered?
Very often, yes. Most manufacturers cover the high-voltage battery and drive unit for longer than the rest of the car. We check your VIN and tell you exactly what is left before you pay for anything.
Are used EV parts safe?
Tested ones can be, and for some parts they are the only affordable option. We tell you where each part comes from, test it before it goes in, and put its warranty in writing next to the new and remanufactured options.
Can you repair a high-voltage battery instead of replacing it?
On many packs, yes. Some are built from modules that can be replaced one at a time. Others are sealed and have to be replaced as a unit. We tell you which one you have and what each path costs.
The dealer quoted a full drive unit. Do I have options?
Often. Some drive unit faults are a bearing, a seal or a sensor, not the whole unit. A full diagnosis comes first, then a written price for the smallest fix that actually solves it.
Is an out of warranty EV worth keeping?
Usually. The motor has very few moving parts, and the big battery lasts longer than most people fear. A health check and a list of what the car really needs helps you decide with real numbers instead of guesses.
