    [Resolved] Beyond Frustrated How do I contact a Regional Manager

    So far they have had mine for 45 days for a minor paint bubble on a sales addendum. No explanation. "Body shop had a delay", Yeah, no sh7, Sherlock! Now they are ghosting me. Why take the car if they are not ready for it? These jerks have no consequences as we have no recourse. If I lived in the...

    I can no longer recommend Tesla. Their Service is the Worst

    Tesla has deleted several of my appointments from the app. If they cancel, they delete it as though it never happened. They did this while I was on my way there, twice. I live over 2 hours away and my husband and I took half a day off to deliver it, since they never have a loaner. We get there...

    This truck design had better be a joke....

    I am very certain that Tesla is not concerned about conservative farmers who live in the past. Tesla truck is designed for fleets, cop shops, military, the young, football players and drug dealers. To me, it is a mad man Batmobile and I couldn’t order fast enough.

    Things my wife said about Navigate on Autopilot tonight

    I have the same problem with my husband's driving, but he never uses autopilot on my X when driving it. The TACC seems to drive him crazy with micro adjustments and he keeps braking out of it and asking me why the car did that. I ask him, "Did what?" As the passenger, I have rarely noticed...

    “Wash-by-handers” in Northeast, what do you do in the Winter?

    I use the drive-through car wash with no contact. Spray only, no scratchy brushes or fabric strips to damage the paint. My last car had an extensive vinyl flame package down both sides of the car. After 12 years of drive-through car washes, the vinyl was in great shape, except for door dings...

    Sudden Unexpected Acceleration today

    The car is designed for the human to supercede all commands as we (should) know best. If we put our foot on the accelerator, despite the sensor's information, a Tesla will assume the driver has intentions that the vehicle dare not interfere with. They are not autonomous yet, and they are not in...

    Learned something new today.. thanks Mercedes...

    Salesmen make commission on the sale, not the parts. If they can’t sell the customer what they want, they will be the loser. However, the dealer needs to order the vehicles in order to sell them

    Planning to only use 110 outlet

    On vacation this year we had access to a 110 outlet which kept us powered up enough to enjoy all of Jacksonville from the beach to my Mom’s house to the Cheesecake Factory to Orange Park. Jacksonville is HUGE but we had no problems at all with the trickler. We were relentless about plugging in...

    Blog Tesla Shareholders Ask for Better Public Relations

    Ads exist to make people aware of a product, and to keep the product uppermost in their minds. Ads do not sell. I was completely unaware of electric cars until last July 2018. Somehow, in my quest for the best gas mileage and cargo space, I had never found Tesla or even a Leaf. I feel as though...

    Why wrap the wood dash when you can stain it?

    Fantastic idea! Looks so much better than the crappy bamboo. Loving the white, too.

    Not missing this

    I live in GA, too and pay $21 a year for my registration. GA charges $300 for an EV special tag, but it isn’t required unless you use the HOV lanes without a passenger. .

    Accident while on EAP...

    It almost looks as though your car sped up right before the guard rail. That might be an illusion as the other vehicles were slowing. Perhaps your foot was on the accelerator?

    Unpopular Question

    This is exactly the forum to air complaints. It is only for Tesla owners and what happens in Vegas, stays in Vegas, hopefully. Plus, we have no problem ridiculing the ridiculous.

    Accidentally drove Model 3 through garage door

    A Tesla knows that you are in charge. When you drive and ignore all good sense, the car will not override you. It is not programmed to override the human.

    How long does it take to receive loan statement if financed from Tesla directly?

    On another note, my temp tag expired and no one at the delivery center would return my voicemails for over a week. I was unable to drive my X. I called the corporate office and was told to go get my tag from the GA DMV, One phone call from the DC could have stopped all the drama. No one was so...
