According to them, it's one of the first 3rd party installations
It looks like they are using the v4 Tesla Superchargers (350kW), they either purchased these from Tesla or Tesla installed them, so it looks like Tesla does have some type of financial involvement
Yeah from a hardware and network perspective. Day to day will fall under Rove from my understanding.
Side note - just installed a chargepoint to replace the JuiceBox and I didn't appreciate how straightforward the JuiceBox install was. Install the bracket, plug in the 14-50, connect to wifi, done. For the ChargePoint, it was drill the first large screw, mount the unit, screw in the lag screws, wire in the charging cable, connect to wifi.
I also had to mount it higher to stay on the stud because otherwise the 14-50 wouldn't have reached since it was shorter than the JB's cable. But all in all, looks pretty good and only took 15 minutes to unmount the JB and mount the chargepoint
Those are the 19" Gemini wheels without the aero covers, he doesn't like the covers so he removed them. Also, red calipers are only brake caliper covers he bought off of Amazon . He plans to put a body kit on it...I tried to talk him out of it as nicely as I could. As you can see, he's already done some damage

Oh, so they're black now. That's what was throwing me off.
Service menu and it has 59k. He charges at home. Not sure how often.
dropped 12% capacity in 59k mi.? must charge every night i'm guessing (probably unnecessarily). not surprised you found an outlier to look as bad as possible, lol.
this analysis though shows 6% loss typical in 200k mi.

12 percent at only 59k is definitely an outlier, even if he supercharged daily. Tesla encourages daily charging, Level 2 wouldn't put that stress on the battery. The only explanation is he charges to 100 percent daily, leaves the car near 0 percent for long periods in freezing weather, or he just has a battery pack with bad cells. Even charging at 100 percent, Tesla has factored in that there are people who would do that, like my daughter who charges her Bolt to 100 percent
i've only charged my ioniq 5 to 100% 3 or 4 times i think.
if i have a day with a lot of driving i might charge to 100%. otherwise it's 80% about every third day.

Carmakers have factored in there will be people who regardless charge to 100 percent, for example someone who leases and knows they will be returning the car in 2 or 3 years. My daughter is an example, she charges her Bolt about once a week and no matter how many times I've told her to set to 80 percent, she just won't. Engineering Explained did a video on this

Leave it to Bit to try to turn everything I say about EVs into something negative. 😒

He charges daily at home to 75%.
Bit can be dramatic at times 😅
I would advise your friend to have this checked with Tesla. The good news is if the battery pack has a defect or drops to 75 percent before the warranty period (8 years or 120k miles) he will get a brand new battery pack. My friend who has a 2018 M3 LR has lost 6 percent, my boss who has a 2017 Model X has 85 percent capacity at over 100k
