Description

Many early Tesla Model S owners frequently encounter the frustrating experience of the self-presenting door handles failing suddenly. The initial design of the Model S door handle incorporated lower-quality, cast components, resulting in frequent failures. Tesla addressed this issue with the introduction of third-generation Model S door handles.

For those covered under warranty, the solution is straightforward: contact the service center and schedule a replacement appointment. However, owners of early Model S vehicles with first and second-generation door handles often faced costly bills exceeding $1000.

Specifications

The Model S Door Handle rebuild Kit includes: 

  • 1 Stainless steel paddle gear
  • 9 Retaining Clips
  • 1 Door Lock Microswitch Wiring
  • Optional: Schwaben Trim Removal Tool Kit

George C. ★★★★★

The trim removal tools included made disassembly surprisingly easy, and the rebuild kit fixed my sticky handle on the first try. My handle now presents smoothly every time.

James ★★★★★

Had a sticky handle that wouldn't fully present, and this kit had everything needed to fix it. The included gaskets fit perfectly and the handle works like new again.

Ava ★★★★★

The trim removal tools made popping off the handle panel surprisingly easy, and the gears fit perfectly on my 2015 Model S. Took about an hour to rebuild both front handles and they're presenting themselves smoothly again.
