Picked up a 2024 Turbo S last week with 16,500 miles on it. It has a lemon/branded titles. Does this service history indicate all issues were fixed?

Hey guys, picked up a beautiful white TTS last week. It has been an absolute blast to drive and I have not had a single issue with it.

I did compiled a complete service history based partially on carfax, and partially from included paperwork from the last dealer that services it before the buyback.

Here are the details:

Car still has 2 full years of factory warranty. Should I be concerned that there might still be gremlins waiting to pop up?

Didn't realize the text would be that tiny. Here's the full image instead. Applogies.

I read the entire service history, and imho it sounds more like excuses to getting it lemon law returned due to buyers remorse. There’s absolutely nothing wrong that I sticks out in your car. Enjoy it!

That was my thought as well since they were not able to reproduce a single one of the complaints.

That said, according to the Carfax ownership history, it was a single owner car on a 2 year personal lease and the length of ownership was 1 year 11 month. So maybe the leasing company did not want to sell it at auction after the lease and were able to get more for it from a manufacture buyback?

At any rate, it has performed flawlessly for me so far and I still have 33k miles and 2 years left on the warranty (which is still valid), so I'm going to enjoy it and not worry about it being a buyback. I got a hell of a deal (paid under $100k).

In California, it's very easy to lemon out a car and there are people that abuse this.
Looks like they gotta a free car for 23 months

Nice solar panels. I have solar also and cannot see any impact from charging the car.
