Tesla Model 3 Long Range Extended Warranty — Coverage Guide 2026
The Model 3 Long Range's dual-motor AWD system adds complexity — and repair cost — beyond the standard rear-wheel-drive variant. Front motor failures and AWD power electronics are additional risk categories not present in single-motor variants. With the larger 82 kWh battery, a full pack replacement can exceed $18,000.

Model 3 Long Range Factory Warranty — What Expires When
Bumper-to-Bumper
4 yr / 50,000 mi bumper-to-bumper
Battery & Drive Unit
8 yr / 120,000 mi
Coverage gap: Once the bumper-to-bumper warranty lapses, all mechanical and electrical failures — except battery and drive unit — are fully out of pocket. MCU failures, heat pump failures, and door component failures all fall into this gap. Third-party extended coverage fills it.
