One potential benefit of a Tesla is that it doesn't have many of the types of parts that regularly break in BMWs, and even if something breaks, the repair process is not as complex. The whole thing is very modular, conceptually closer to a desktop PC. Of course, it'll take a few years to get statistically relevant data, but I'm cautiously optimistic.

Tesla does not disclose any tech/repair info to third party though, so customers are on their own if repair is not done at dealer.
BTW there have been reports of Tesla replacing Model S electric motors(under warranty) in 40-60k miles, so time will tell if that repeats for Model 3.
