Trade EV & Tesla Repair Support for Dealerships

Independent Tesla & Electric Vehicle Specialists – Kettering

KMC Electric provides professional, independent repair and diagnostic support to car dealerships stocking Tesla and other electric vehicles. We work with independent and franchised dealers across Kettering, Northamptonshire, Leicestershire, and beyond, helping you prepare EVs for resale quickly, safely, and commercially.

We are not affiliated with any manufacturer. Our focus is out‑of‑warranty vehicles, real‑world fixes, and keeping EVs saleable rather than sidelined or written off.

Why Dealerships Work With KMC Electric

Electric vehicles — particularly Teslas — are often delayed or devalued due to uncertainty around fault messages, battery health, or high‑voltage systems. With the right expertise, many of these issues are diagnosable and repairable outside the main dealer network.

We act as a technical partner to your dealership, offering clear advice on:

• What needs repairing
• What is commercially viable for resale
• What can be monitored or disclosed
• When replacement is the better option

Our goal is simple: reduce risk, control costs, and get vehicles sale‑ready.

Our Credentials

• EV qualified since 2016
• Level 4 Master Technician – Electric Vehicles
• Over 25 years’ automotive experience
• Fully equipped independent EV workshop
• Specialist knowledge of Tesla systems across all models

You deal directly with a technician — not a call centre.

A Commercial, Sustainable Approach

We believe EVs should not be scrapped prematurely due to misunderstood faults. These vehicles have already consumed significant resources to manufacture — repairing and extending their life is both commercially and environmentally responsible.

If a battery or system is not economically repairable, we will help you explore:

• Replacement options
• Used components
• Alternative routes to market

No unnecessary work. No inflated promises.
