Some Shanghai-built Tesla Model Y L owners have reported rear suspension sagging, reduced tire-to-wheel-arch clearance, and abnormal tire wear. Tesla has reportedly replaced springs under warranty and introduced an updated spring, while published ground-clearance figures also differ between 166 mm and 169 mm.
Suspension durability and consistent specifications are important for owners who regularly carry passengers or cargo, especially over longer trips.
