The original Tesla Model 3 had a flaw with stiff suspension, making long rides uncomfortable on bumpy roads.
With the introduction of the refreshed Model 3 in 2023, the suspension issue was resolved with new dampers and springs.
Owners can retrofit the softer suspension from the new Model 3 onto the older versions for an improved ride comfort at a lower cost.
By purchasing front shocks, springs, and rear shocks from Tesla for around $600, owners can upgrade the old Model 3's suspension by themselves, offering a 90% improvement in comfort compared to the newer version.
