Pakistan’s uneven and bumpy roads can cause additional strain on the Tesla Model S drivetrain, even though the electric motor itself is generally reliable. Owners often experience:

Drivetrain vibrations during acceleration, especially on poorly maintained roads.

Axle half-shaft wear, which is a known global issue in older Model S vehicles but is worsened by rough conditions.

Clunking o r humming noises from the motor area due to constant road impact.

Stress on suspension components that indirectly affects drivetrain alignment and smoothness.

Since specialized Tesla mechanics are limited in Pakistan, diagnosing these issues can be slow and expensive.
