This article discusses why Tesla cars make noise, and some of the potential problems that may be causing the noise.

As someone who knows many Tesla owners, I hear a lot of complaints from new Tesla owners about the noises their cars make.

A common issue is that many new Tesla owners remain unaware of the fact that some Teslas make noise when parked.

This can be caused by the coolant pump, and some people have even posted videos about it on YouTube to show what it sounds like.

The noise is usually a low humming sound and is not typically as loud as the fan or other noises cars may make.

However, it can still be annoying for some people and can sometimes be heard from a distance.

The decision to purchase the 2023 Genesis GV70 will ultimately depend on your specific circumstances and preferences.
