Teslas are still wickedly expensive to repair and there's only the dealership who can do those repairs.

Where are you getting that from? There are plenty of 3rd party shops that can and do service Teslas. They even made their repair manuals public and sell the OEM components online.

The cost of that can apparently be over $1k. For a door handle.

That's a door handle on a $100k+ car.
