Tesla and EV towing in New Orleans. Follow the manual.
Quick Tow New Orleans matches electric-vehicle calls with operators set up for them. Tesla's Model 3 manual recommends a flatbed so all four tires stay off the ground. If a Model 3 must move without a flatbed, Tesla allows a wheel-lift with dollies that keep all four wheels off the ground, only for a maximum of 35 miles and within the dolly speed rating. That is Tesla's Model 3 instruction, not a rule we apply to every EV brand. Follow your owner's manual. We do not give DIY transport instructions.

What do drivers ask about Tesla & EV?
Can you tow my Tesla in New Orleans?
Operators we match typically use a flatbed for Teslas so all four wheels stay off the ground. Tesla's Model 3 manual recommends that. It also allows a wheel-lift with dollies that keep all four wheels off the ground, only within Tesla's 35-mile and speed limits. This is not a Tesla-authorized program. If you have Tesla Roadside coverage, you can call them first. If you call us, we match you with a local operator.
Can a Tesla be towed with a wheel lift or a dolly?
Tesla's Model 3 manual says not to transport the car with wheels that can spin. A wheel-lift that leaves two wheels on the ground is not an approved method. Tesla does allow a wheel-lift plus dollies that keep all four wheels off the ground, only within its 35-mile and speed limits. A flatbed is the recommended method. Other EV brands have their own manuals. We do not give DIY transport instructions.
How do I put my Tesla in Transport Mode?
Tesla publishes that function as Tow Mode. Do not follow a phone walkthrough or tap-and-hold steps from this page. Search Tesla's current transporter instructions for your year and model, or call Tesla Roadside. When you call (504) 474-5530, we ask year, model, and whether a flatbed is available, then match you with a licensed operator. We do not give DIY transport instructions.
What if my 12V battery is dead in my Tesla?
A Tesla 12V battery can fail while the high-voltage pack still has charge. We do not publish battery locations or DIY jump steps. Tell the operator whether the car shows 12V warnings, whether it cranks, and whether lights come on. If a jump does not restore drive, the operator quotes a flatbed to the service center you name.
Which service center will you tow to in New Orleans?
The destination follows the issue, the service center's published wait times, and your preference. If your car is under warranty and Tesla Roadside is paying, they typically dictate the destination.
Do you tow Rivian, Lucid, and other EVs?
Yes. Operators we match handle many EV makes. Follow that vehicle's owner manual for approved transport. Tesla's Model 3 limits are not a substitute for another brand's instructions. A Cybertruck's curb weight and clearance often change the equipment and the quote, so ask the operator before they roll.
