Three Lift Locations Earn Tesla Preferred Status

Lift Auto Group is proud to share that three of its locations have earned Tesla Preferred status for the third quarter of 2026.  

CSN Kelowna Performance Collision and CSN Tristar have maintained their status from the previous quarter, while CSN BM Collision is a new addition this quarter. All three locations are now identified with the Tesla Preferred badge on the Tesla Collision Locator. 

This designation recognizes collision repair facilities that meet Tesla’s rigorous standards for equipment, technician training, repair methodology, and operational excellence. Achieving Tesla Preferred status requires a significant investment in advanced repair capabilities and a strong commitment to maintaining OEM-certified repair standards.  

“This accomplishment reflects the dedication, discipline, and professionalism of each team,” says Tanner Taniguchi, Vice President, Operational Strategy, Lift Auto Group. “Meeting Tesla’s requirements is no small task, and this milestone reinforces the high standards our locations uphold every day.”  

The achievement also strengthens each location’s position within the Tesla repair network, increasing visibility for Tesla owners seeking certified repair partners while reinforcing confidence among OEM partners and insurers.  

Earning Tesla Preferred status represents another important step forward for Lift and sets a strong benchmark for operational excellence across the organization.
