They’re some of the most advanced cars on the road today with sleek designs, cutting-edge technology and thrilling performance. But even with all the top-class safety aspects and the best will in the world, accidents do happen and fixing a Tesla isn’t like [fixing](https://www.evolvearc.co.uk/accident-repairs-birmingham) any other car. That’s why certified repairs matter. [Tesla-certified repair shops](https://www.evolvearc.co.uk/blog/benefits-car-repairs-with-evolve)are the only ones that can get your car back to factory condition which is important for everything from maintaining battery safety to matching Tesla’s signature minimalist finish. Here’s why choosing a certified Tesla repair shop isn’t just a smart choice, it’s the only choice. ## **You Get Access to Tesla Experts** Tesla doesn’t just hand out[certification](https://www.evolvearc.co.uk/blog/accredited-ev-car-repairs)to any old accident repair company. They want to make sure that whoever is handling repairs on their behalf does it to the same exacting standards that Tesla is synonymous with. There’s a stringent training, qualification and certification process. As an approved repairer our technicians had to go through a lengthy process to ensure they know how to repair Teslas and have the right equipment to do so. Tesla’s oversight doesn’t stop there either – they like to keep an eye on us too, regularly checking in to make sure we’re still adhering to their exacting standards. ## **We Use the Right Tools and Equipment** Tesla cars require very specific pieces of equipment for repair and recalibration which not all repair shops will have. At [EvolveArc](https://www.evolvearc.co.uk/accident-repairs-birmingham), we’ve invested in the right tech to tackle every issue and ensure your car leaves our garage in factory new condition. From precision panel alignment to advanced sensor recalibration, we leave nothing to chance. ## **Tesla Approved Parts** Not all[car parts](https://www.evolvearc.co.uk/blog/manufacturer-parts-car-repairs) are created equal and whilst you can procure generic parts for repairs they’re simply not going to be as good as the real deal. Yes, they might be cheaper, yes, they might be easier to get hold of but in the long run they could cost you more affecting your car’s performance and wearing out faster or worse still, breaking down. Using non-approved parts can also invalidate any warranties and lower the resale value of your vehicle. It's why we always use approved parts supplied directly by Tesla. That way you get access to proprietary technology, designed to work properly with Tesla’s software and systems. ## **Get Your Vehicle Repaired the Right Way** Lack of proper knowledge when repairing a Tesla can cause *more* damage. Body shops that aren’t approved by Tesla might be forced to repair a part that really should be replaced ether because they don’t have the right expertise or the right equipment, or both. This can lead to repairs that not only affect the longevity of your vehicle, but which may even be unsafe. There are lots of accident repair centres to choose from when you need your car repaired. If it’s a Tesla though it really does pay to pick a Tesla-approved body shop. You’ll thank yourself later when your car is back to new and guaranteed. Want to know more about how we can help get your Tesla back on the road, fast and to a high quality?
