I got the beta, but really really do not like the inability to use TACC at all. My current commute is driving into the sun and FSD hesitates and won’t keep the speed limit, but TACC is normally fine. Also, the car is biased way to the right hand side of the lane. I disabled FSD beta...

Going through a 2nd claim now with X-Care. So far X-Care has been pretty easy to work with, however Tesla Burbank not so much. They ended up refusing to work directly with x-care so there were several back and forth with the service advisor when the estimate didn’t have the enough information...

Anyone in the FSD Beta get pushed 2022.44.25.3? It doesn't appear to be an FSD Beta software version. I didn't have any strikeouts or anything, but I also don't use the Beta features so wondering if I was kicked for non-use or something. Am sad because 2022.36.20 finally fixed speed...

For whatever it’s worth, I also have not had any more events since early July even though I still haven’t heard back on my support request for being in the program incorrectly. Wild guess theory: they had to pause the program for whatever utility/batch whatever I was mistakenly enrolled in...

Unfortunately no. I did email the connected solutions email address last week. Pinged Tesla today and they said I will have to talk to the connected solutions team, so will just have to wait I guess. Tesla said I was in the program so the connected solutions folks have to “verify there...

I do not have the grid services banner or the Virtual power option in my app. However, on Friday between 1-4 and Saturday between 2-4 PDT my Powerwalls did a pretty large discharge but not on other days. We are currently out of town, so no reason for big draws at the house during those times...

I am in a bit of an unusual situation as I apparently got added to the program accidentally (I am on So Cal Edison in CA), so I don't get notice of events and I am trying to figure out if they are actually discharging my powerwall to the grid or not. Since I am not in any program, I won't get...

So how do you tell the discharge is happening back to the grid? Is it the number I have circled? Swiping back dates, that is normally zero.

I just got an email that I am now enrolled in the Connected Solutions program. I did not sign up, looking at the support page, it is not in California, so I am hoping it was an error. Anyone else not on the East coast get this email? I emailed the support and asked to be unenrolled.

Does Tesla still sell extended warranties? I know they don’t offer them for the 3, which is why I went with Xcare, but we haven’t tried to add one for our S yet. Edit: Tesla only offers the extended warranty for cars built thru 2020 per their website. So everyone in the future will be...

I had to use my xcare warranty for the first time recently when my model 3 control arms started creaking. Overall, a great experience. Called the number and started a claim, which was super easy. The warranty company was great to work with, and the Van Nuys service center didn’t have any...

Eh, I think @daktari has a point. Tesla DID design Autopilot to be as hands-free as possible even back in the AP1 days when it was essentially hands free. They only added the various safety items after it became obvious people were misusing the system. It's always been reactionary, never...

Not FUD, in the AP1 days, you could go for 20 minutes at highway speeds without any nags and got infinite numbers of audio warnings (no AP jail). Joshua Brown was killed in an under run accident with a semi crossing a highway causing the first NHTSA investigation of AP and resulted in Tesla...

Shopping for insurance for our cars after getting a huge rate increase from our current company due to a claim this past year. The rate more than doubled going to over $9K per year, which is....just wow. Guess they want all the money back from the claim. Got quotes from most of the majors...

I think it will take more time before the mega threads start showing up. The mega threads for the issues with the early S’s only started showing up in the last couple of years. So far, the issues I am watching as the owner of a 2017 3 is the reports of control arms going bad, mine is making...
