    Front Passenger Safety Restraint System Fault

    No traction with the NHTSA but they did ask for my repair invoices. So fingers crossed if enough people complain something will happen.

    HW3.0 upgrade for basic AP owners now free?

    7 days + another 2 days (with the loaner) at a later date for the dash replacement. 0 cost but I question the loss of radar....

    Front Passenger Safety Restraint System Fault

    Just got an email from the DoT requesting more info (copies of invoices etc). I suggest those that have had this issue file a complaint. You shouldn't have to replace an airbag at ~60k miles....

    HW3.0 upgrade for basic AP owners now free?

    Day 7 of the repair and I see a new line, "Dash replacement, rectification" Guess they messed the dash up....

    HW3.0 upgrade for basic AP owners now free?

    Makes sense and they just authorized uber credits for me so my only complaint has turned into just a minor annoyance. Can't say other auto manufacturers will upgrade out of warranty cars for free. Kinda insane when you step back and think about it.

    HW3.0 upgrade for basic AP owners now free?

    Sorry .. I missread your ask as when did you put in your request. I made a service request asking for the HW3 upgrade. They sent it back with a 0 estimate and the 12v battery added (which as mentioned above was 5 years old so was time anyways).

    HW3.0 upgrade for basic AP owners now free?

    About three weeks ago. Kept getting pushed back for part availability (including one time when they forgot to tell me and I showed up anyways) but they took it in this past Monday and I was informed yesterday they are having issues with updating the firmware and were in contact with corporate...

    HW3.0 upgrade for basic AP owners now free?

    Was able to get them to give me a 0 invoice for the HW upgrade (June 2018 with EAP) but now my one day install is approaching 5 days due to firmware issues :( No loaner or uber credits. Thankfully have another car.

    Memphis Service Center?!

    This was posted on the local Memphis tesla group. Getting closer! 3020 N Germantown pkwy. Will allow deliveries and will have more loaners available.

    Best replacement tire for Michelin MXM4 Primacy

    That's interesting the shop put on such a low load rating tire. I can't get the continental to recommend for the Tesla.

    Memphis Service Center?!

    I had an out of warranty bumper swap there due to a collision and the service advisor there, Matt, is top notch. I would recommend them in a heartbeat. Last word is they resigned the lease and are still scouting another permanent location somewhere.

    Yes. Frequent charging faults in 4 of the chargers last time I passed through in Jan

    Seems you both were right - the Bentonville and Fayetteville coming soon pins are now missing on the official map o_O

    Superchargers on the NJ Turnpike (speculation, discussion)

    FTFY I might hold off if you read the press release from the NJTA it mentions: So it seems there is no permit yet for the expansion. This is pretty sweet though for those on the corridor - seems also all stations will be (including the existing 8 stations) 250W V3 chargers.

    Tesla Certified Bodyshop Recommendation in the DC Area

    I just looked it up and D&V Autobody would be my go to. I no longer live in the area but have used them in the past when I did and they were top notch. Last time I went they were working on Ferrari's and other high end cars and are Tesla approved.... Not sure about front bumpers but depending...

    Supercharger - Louisville, KY

    I actually contacted my local service center as I thought it was an issue with my car. They looked (and took the car in) and found no issues. I'll email that address though.

    Yes we traveled through in late Jan and had issues with stalls 1a, 2a, and 4a

    Establishing diminished value for insurance

    New member joining today to post praise? I suspect JenniferMoore works for St. Lucie Appraisal. Anyways good luck OP.

    Winter driving advice, winter tire choices, etc.

    Unless range is really needed I found a wash between the range lost due to a cold battery and the power required to re-heat and charge a battery (vs just plugging in when you get home with an already pre-conditioned battery). Just my two cents.

    I need to know about your rattles....

    Wait, they've updated the triangle to have the double sided tape to keep it from sticking out? When did they make that change? I had mine replaced months ago but they still stick out.

    Nice reaction. Was that you avoiding the semi or the car?

    Charge Speed Reduced because of Solar Array voltage?

    OP any error lights on the HPWC? For instance do you see a single orange flashing light along with the streaming green lights? It's hard to see - the number of flashes indicate different things. I'm having a similar issue (without solar) and service just pushed me 2019.16.3.2 to see if the issue...

    Memphis Service Center?!

    You can't schedule appointments yet there so it's still way under construction. Any signs of a Super Charger? I wonder if they will use it for deliveries.

    Memphis Service Center?!

    Correct - it was never mentioned as coming soon as some Service Centers are listed. For example, New Orleans has been coming soon forever.

    Memphis Service Center?!

    Just got an email that a Service Center is now open in Memphis, 5851 Advantage Cove Memphis, TN 9086 That kinda popped out of no where. Was never mentioned on the map as coming soon. Even our local mobile guy didn't know one was coming when I asked him a bit ago if one would ever open in Memphis.

    Windshield wipers are horrible, and arguably dangerous

    New NN and wipers are pretty rock solid.

    Anyone going to upgrade to FSD before March 18th?

    I'd pay $2k/3k in a heart beat if something tangible was released with positive reviews.

    Software Version 2018.50.6 - No new features

    Looks like a big push from 50.5 to 50.6 so something is corrected that's important.

    My Tesla app must be open for phone key to work?

    I've experienced if you have not unlocked your phone in a while you need to just unlock the phone for the car to unlock (not open the app). Unsure of the timeout.

    Supercharger - Little Rock, AR

    I think it's a combo of that and awaiting the final design of the Semi charger as Arkansas is a big trucking route. Plus the one in Bentonville is clearly aimed at Walmart....

    Model 3 TPMS sensors are junk

    Don't TPMS sensors recalibrate when they are reset? I think filling the tires to 45PSI and having a tireshop reset/relearn all the sensors should have them recalibrated for the proper altitude. If you can get a hold of a TPMS diagnostics tool you might be able to try yourself. Tesla's auto...

    Model 3 TPMS off by 3-5 PSI?

    It's not the software but the sensor. I'm curious if just refilling them to a proper level (45PSI) and having a tire shop reset the sensors would recalibrate them. Might try one of those cheapo TPMS devices on Amazon, but unsure which ones the Tesla sensors use.

    I need a scheduled start time for preconditioning my car.

    I haven't tried it personally but looks like someone has made a homebridge plugin for Tesla (if you are using homekit that is). You could set a scene and have it run every morning. Again only helpful for your morning commute. Not sure if Scenes will work remotely but they might as the API is...

    Home Charging Issue

    When you test your neighbors charger, are you testing the whole unit or just the pigtail? Have you tried your charger at your neighbors house? Agree with @StellarRat - could be a bad charger.

    Model 3 Battery Heating?

    Steve Wozniak doubts fully self-driving vehicles are 'quite possible yet’

    Funny - I passed what seemed like two Apple self driving cars the other day on the highway in TN that were in a caravan. One looked like it had no driver at all in the front two seats.

    Navigate on Autopilot is Going to Cause Accidents

    I think people are confusing when it's recommending a lane change when their is obvious cars in the way. I'm fairly certain if you confirm it will wait until there is a gap to change lanes. While I haven't 100% tried it - I did wait until a car in my way was out of my blind spot before...

    Rear seat warmers not

    It's in the link on Tesla's website I provided. The max charge rate is based on the individual car. When you connect to a charger the car will set its charge rate based on what's available. There is no harm if the max available is more then the car (but the car will limit its charge if the max...

    Rear seat warmers not

    Remember the car will only charge at 80% of the line run. The 3 was designed for a 60a/48 charge. Modex X and S charge at a higher limit (72a with the older S models at 80a). Also 100amps is good future proofing if you want to install a second charger down the line (as they can share a 100amp...

    Rear seat warmers not

    Tesla's charger is designed up to 100amps. You'll be fine - besides the Model 3 will limit the charge to its max, 48 amps.

    Did I Make a Mistake Skipping EAP?

    For me, EAP was one of the (many) deciding factors between the Tesla and the Bolt. The fact EAP is more useful now then when I first bought the car is just icing on the cake. I'll prob pay 5k for FSD down the line if it ever comes to fruition.
