Just hit 10K miles on my Cybertruck and discovered something wild: Regular tire shops WON'T touch CT tire rotations. Costco? No. Firestone? Nope. PepBoys? Also refusing.Tesla's solution? They'll do it for $295. Yes, you read that right—nearly $300 for a basic tire rotation that typically costs $20-50 elsewhere.
It's pointing to a bigger challenge for CT owners: specialized service requirements that limit our options and drive up maintenance costs.

? Question for CT owners: Have you found alternative solutions? Local shops willing to work on the truck?

If you're considering a CT purchase, factor this in: Standard maintenance might not be so standard. Basic services could require Tesla service center visits at premium prices.

Thanks!

Thank you! I will reach out to Tesla with this quote; it seems like they have made an error with my estimate.
sounds more like an alignment quote for that price. I plan to rotate my tires myself at my house. i'm planning on having tesla put my snow tires on my stock wheels at the end of the month, i wonder how much they will charge for that?

I've had mine rotated twice at Les Schwab for free. I am buying another jack so that I may do it myself soon. I plan on rotating the tires every ~3,000 miles. I currently have just north of 15,000 miles on the truck.

I just had it done last week at local Tesla SC. $65.00.
It was also $65.00 last year in my driveway on the Model Y owned before the CT. Tesla Mobile ranger did it.
Not sure what's going on with your quote.

Discount Tire said they would do it for free, but I’ve not taken them up on it yet.

Did you ask for the manager at all these places that refused? Do they not work on trucks, or other Teslas? There’s nothing magical about the wheels and lugs on a CT, but the air suspension does need to be in “Jack Mode”.

I’m temped to hit up the above shops on their socials to ask “Why won’t you work on Cybertrucks?”

Sounds like a simple computer error with junk in, junk out.

I have discount tire rotating my tires. It's only like $15 per tire for lifetime rotations/balancing.
