Hello! My cousin bought a used Tesla 3 with around 10k miles on it. The car looks fine, with some minor visual tracks of usage. The only problem he has with it is the back window. It has some scratches on the glass, but we can't identify if those are inside or outside of it. Is there any way to fix this?
 
To me, it looks like the ex-owner was unlucky and someone with low skills washed his car until he scratched it. Or (and this would be a better case), check the wipers. Maybe they have debris on them. At least, he can avoid scratching them more.

He needs to use a dedicated glass polishing compound and a polishing pad. I used a rotary polisher with CarPro Ceriglass and a rayon pad to remove scratches from my other car's window in about 20 minutes.

Scratches on glass can be tricky. If the polish route doesn’t work or the scratches are deep, a professional repair service might be the way to go.
 
@CrazyinEV How was your cousin’s Tesla? Was he able to fix those minor scratches?
Thanks for checking in, @Road_Kilah! We ended up cleaning the wipers to prevent more scratches, and we used CarPro Ceriglass with a rayon pad for the lighter scratches. Luckily, the scratches weren’t deep enough to require professional help. The car is looking much better now, and my cousin is really happy with the results!
