Parts, Accessories, and Modifications
Use only genuine Tesla parts and accessories. Tesla performs
rigorous testing on parts to ensure their suitability, safety,
and reliability. Purchase these parts from Tesla, where they
are professionally installed and where you can receive expert
advice about modifications to Model Y. Accessories are
available for purchase from Tesla stores or online at
www.tesla.com.
NOTE: Adding accessories to your vehicle may impact
expected range, vehicle dimensions, etc.
NOTE: Some accessories may not be available in your market
region.
Tesla is unable to assess parts manufactured by other
distributors and therefore accepts no responsibility if you use
non-Tesla parts on Model Y.
WARNING: Installing non-approved parts and
accessories, or performing non-approved
modifications, can affect the performance of Model Y
and the safety of its occupants. Any damage caused by
using or installing non-approved parts, or by
performing non-approved modifications, is not
covered by the warranty.
WARNING: Tesla does not accept liability for death,
personal injury or damage that occurs if you use or
install non-approved accessories or make non-
approved modifications.
Body Repairs
If your Model Y is in a collision, contact Tesla or a Tesla-
approved Body Shop to ensure that it is repaired with
genuine Tesla parts. Tesla has selected and approved body
shops that meet strict requirements for training, equipment,
quality, and customer satisfaction.
Some repair shops and insurance companies might suggest
using non-original equipment or salvaged parts to save
money. However, these parts do not meet Tesla's high
standards for quality, fit and corrosion resistance. In addition,
non-original equipment and salvaged parts (and any damage
or failures they might cause) are not covered by the warranty.
Replacing Cabin Filters
Model Y has air filters that prevent pollen, industrial fallout,
road dust, and other particles from entering the cabin
through the vents. Tesla recommends replacing these filters
every 2 years (every year in China). Cabin filters can be
purchased at the
Tesla Shop.
To replace the cabin filters:
1.
Turn off the climate control system.
2.
Open the front right-hand side door, then move the front
right-hand side seat fully rearwards and remove the floor
mat.
3.
Working from top-to-bottom, use a trim tool to carefully
release the right side panel from the center console.
4.
Use a pry tool to carefully release the magnets that secure
the front right-hand side footwell cover to the instrument
panel. Then, while supporting the footwell cover,
disconnect the two electrical connectors and move the
footwell cover aside.
◦ For the light, carefully press down on the tab while
releasing the connector.
◦ For the speaker, carefully angle the vehicle-side
connector so that the small tab releases from the hole
in the footwell cover-side connector while releasing
the connector.
CAUTION: To avoid damage, do not pull on the wires
when disconnecting the connectors. When
disconnecting the connectors, make sure to pull
from the plastic on the connectors themselves.
5.
Release the cabin filter cover by using your index finger
and thumb to squeeze the two tabs at the bottom of the
cabin filter cover. Tilt the cover outward to remove.
