Tesla Model Y: Flat Spots

If Model Y is stationary for a long period, tires can form flat spots. When Model Y is driven, these flat spots cause a vibration which gradually disappears as the tires warm up and regain their original shape.

To minimize flat spots during storage, inflate tires to the maximum pressure indicated on the tire wall. Then, before driving, release air to adjust tire pressure to the recommended levels.

Improving Tire Mileage

To improve the mileage you get from your tires, maintain tires at the recommended tire pressures, observe speed limits and advisory speeds, and avoid:

  • Pulling away quickly, or hard acceleration.
  • Fast turns and heavy braking.
  • Potholes and objects in the road.
  • Hitting curbs when parking.
  • Contaminating tires with fluids that can cause damage.
