Doesnt look like there is any chance it would be covered under warranty to me. There is a huge chip in the glass right along the crack lines, that looks like external damage (thus not warranty).

Its possible they dont know that. I would find it more likely that they DO know that, with all that implies.

For Electronics "bricking" them means rendering them non functional. The original meaning of the term also means "not recoverable" as in you turned the electronic object "into a brick". People use it all the time incorrectly though, especially here on TMC, where someone will try to create a...

Thats going to depend mostly on what rims and tires you have on the performance, and how heavy your foot is when you drive. Specifically, it will depend on whether you stay with the factory size rims, and / or summer tires (which are stickier and thus get less range) or go with aftermarket...

In this thread, on the previous page from this one: If they raised rates for financing, its likely they raised rates for leasing too. Difference is, when you get a loan there are all sorts of requirements in the US to disclose the financing rate. Leasing has no such disclosure requirement...

You keep saying "14-50 outlet" and as I said, you REMOVE the 14-50 outlet and connect two wall connectors to the wires using polaris connectors or equivalent. So, the answer to your "single wire to the 14-50 outlet and connect two wall connectors to that wire, is "No, the 14-50 outlet is...

No, you would remove the 14-50 outlet and use the wiring and connect the wall connectors.

Which is exactly why the answer from Tesla regarding having your body shop fix it was "No". Their cost to fix it would not be $3500 to them internally, and the fact that its more convenient to you doesnt really matter in the scheme of things as far as costs go unless they can absorb the cost...

My first immediate thought is that you dont say what model year (plate) vehicle you have, but any car made after about november of 2021 will not have data ports in the center console as the car comes from the factory (meaning "I would be willing to use the centre console" wont work).

I will disagree with your disagree. People make mistakes, especially if they arrive home and are distracted. It would be very easy to forget to plug occasionally, unless you think somehow no one ever forgets, gets distracted, or makes a mistake. Just because it doesnt work for you doesnt mean...

I provided that link so you could see what they say they have, and also what they say they dont have. At the tesla link, it says the following: ===================================== About the Data Tesla Provides When we collect data, we believe it’s important for you to know what we’re...

The best information this website has on attempting to recover the data is in the link to the thread that @stopcrazypp provided. If your expecting "I will just make Tesla give it to me", tesla doesnt have dashcam or sentry video from our cars.

If you already did the data request they would have sent you what they have. What they have is at the link below (and yes, there are multiple threads here with people complaining about "No data on USB with accident?!") https://www.tesla.com/support/privacy

Its going through Tesla's Servers (the car is communicating to Tesla, who is then sending the information to your phone) Same as above, the car is communicating to Tesla, who is then sending the information to your phone. It doesnt really care how your phone is connected, or to what, as long...

Yeah if its that far it doesnt make sense to drive back down there. I just know it would be the fastest way to solve the issue. My next suggestion would be to dont sit on it too long. Perhaps wait a week or so, and if Tesla doesnt try to take the money again, reach back out to them.

Welcome to TMC. This probably should have been in the model Y ordering subforum (I will ping a mod for this subforum and ask them to move it there). As for your question, the "best" thing to do probably would have been to go back to the delivery center (where you picked up the car) and...

Thats your opinion, but it certainly seems to be in the vast minority, at least at this point. I am a vast believer that no product, including a vehicle, is right for everyone, so its not like I am saying "your wrong" (because im not). I am just saying that this particular opinion appears to...

My wifes car has a newer version than is mentioned in that article so presumably should have that update (wifes car = 2022 model Y Performance, autopilot only SW version 2024.8.9). I dont think I have yet arrived home at less than 50% of my regular set point as that article states the feature...

It sounds to me like you have a broken plastic sheath from one of the pins from your Tesla charger stuck in the charge port of your car (based on the little information provided by the OP).

I havent seen this notification either, and I have returned to home in my wifes model Y with under 50% at least once a week, since we only charge my wifes car to 50-60% on a regular basis. What vehicle is this for and what is version is "recent update" that has this feature?

I was just going to say this but you beat me to it. @petercc9 , a keyfob has never (ever) been "standard equipment" on ANY model 3 or Y delivery. Since this thread is in the model 3 subforum, and we are discussing model 3s, its not appropriate to say "discontinued", because you cant discontinue...

It sounds to me like you misunderstood what they said, or their policy has changed (one of the two). "1 week - 1000 miles driven" is to report issues you find that need to be repaired (return the car for service) not return the car and get another one. That is, unless their policy has changed...

(moderator note) I changed the thread title as you requested. ================================== (not moderation content, regular post) If your location is actually what you put (USA) there is no "reject the car". Once you take delivery, the car is yours, unless both you and whomever sold...

Are you aware Tesla just recently announced a refresh version of the Model 3 Performance?

Since it seems like I need to remind people of this, especially in this specific thread, there should be nothing at all that looks anything like any sort of buying or selling activity in this thread. Any activity of that sort needs to go in the marketplace subforum.

It doesnt really have range either. That (range) is pretty much wholly a product of the rims and tires (and how heavy someones foot is).

Even if it was offered for the Model 3P, which it isnt) it would be under the stipulation that the car would be slower than the current model 3 SR+ since LFP batteries are less energy dense and cant even provide SR+ speed levels in a Tesla.

While most of this process is a "black box" putting cash vs financing when you first apply doesnt specifically make a difference, HOWEVER..... 1. There is some evidence over the years that not having a completed profile can somewhat delay getting a vin assigned. Putting cash completes that...

Is this the same tire as this 9 page thread on Pirelli P Zero Tires? https://teslamotorsclub.com/tmc/threads/thoughts-on-pirelli-p-zero-all-season-plus-elect-for-model-3.267721/

The answer to the thread question (at least in the US) is "No it does not extend the battery warranty". No idea what it is in your country.

That definitely seems to be a thing, sometimes anyway... even though I am sure there are people designing the product who are not natives to CA. It sometimes seems like they dont do much testing outside of CA, or at a minimum cater to CA due to sales volume here.

No, its not illegal to stay in the left lane in CA. Maybe in other states but not here. The left lane is not reserved for passing. However, if you are driving too SLOW in the left lane, you can get a ticket...

Unless you mean used, they were launched "heavily discounted" since for anyone who can take advantage of the point of sale tax credit, they are cheaper than the LR version. I doubt they get much cheaper than they are now, and in fact would expect them to get more expensive. Its simply NOT...

I dont (see people accelerating past 100MPH on a regular basis on freeways or streets) and my location is very similar to yours. I work in North county San Diego, so travel the 15 regularly which has a speed limit of 70MPH but an actual driving speed of around 80 MPH. I still dont see people...

The parking sensors being gone has zero to do with Hardware 3 or 4. They have been gone since 2023 in the location you have under your name 'USA".

The parking sensors have been gone for quite some time. At least since near the beginning of 2023.

Since you are asking for UK specific information, I would suggest participating in the UK and Ireland specific part of the forum: https://teslamotorsclub.com/tmc/forums/the-uk-and-ireland.114/

I mean, this is going to sound harsh and its not ment to be, but you likely knew the car had no parking sensors when you bought it. If parking sensors is a hard requirement for your needs, thats cool, but then you should purchase a car that meets those needs. I am a firm believer that not...

Sure... but not "60-130MPH" at regular intervals. "60-90mph"... Sure. "0-90"? sure. Are you saying that where you are, people are regularly accelerating past 100 MPH on a regular basis?

All this talk about "60-130" speed (I just quoted you because it was the last one I saw, definitely not the only one). People are saying "I dont care about the track, I dont care about 0-60, I just care about 60-130". "0-60" you can actually legally drive, on the street, multiple times a day...

This is perfectly fine and on topic for the thread 👍

Yeah what? Which is it?

And who is "this guy?" some random youtuber (or some big name, "known commodity" youtuber)?

I dont think thats true on a vehicle that has not talked to the mothership in that long of a time. The vehicle certificates (software certificates) are likely expired and will need to be re installed by Tesla. If it were me, and I had the ability to unwind that deal, I would RUN to do so...

The full answer to your question is "No the new model 3 performance does not have a suspension that can be raised and lowered". @Technokrat provided more nuance but if you want to be able to "raise and lower" the suspension, no model 3 from the factory does that, including the recently...

My model 3 has the atom processor, my wifes model Y has the amd. Things like web browsing and such are noticeably slower in my model 3 but not so slow as to be unusable. I notice it more when I swap from car to car and use anything like that (like loading up youtube / youtube TV while...

Basically, no matter how much someone tries to micro manage / pay attention to delivery, it basically goes like this: 1. Order (complete all order tasks, and Ideally put "cash" as payment type even if you plan on financing as long as you know you will be approved for financing / have no credit...

Why would you be switching it? Quite small for what? I reformat mine like 1 or 2 times a year, it has not had to be swapped. I dont put music on it, and its more than large enough for the stated purpose (Dashcam / Sentry). Since dashcam writes over itself after an hour, no matter how much...

It was, but they have it currently priced so it wont be again until they either raise the price of this car, or lower the price of the Long Range AWD. One of those choices makes them more money, one makes them less. I know which one I would bet on them doing.

Not necessarily. If you buy an endurance microSD card that is ment for many re writes, it will last a long time. I still have the first one I bought 5 years ago when I got my model 3 (in 2018) and Its still being used for dashcam with no issues.
