Charger fault or car fault?
If a charge won't start, try another connector, then restart the session in the operator's app or call 0333 577 6760. If your Tesla fails at more than one charger, charges far slower than usual everywhere, or shows a charging alert, the car may need looking at. The nearest Tesla Service Centre is Tesla Service Newcastle, about 7.7 miles away. For independent servicing, tyres and bodywork, find a Tesla specialist on TeslaService.co.uk.
