That was your mistake, you sent them the sales agreement. I held off until the car was registered in my name and only sent them that

Which is why when I bought mine (from a Toyota dealer) I told Tesla it was a private party sale. Tesla has (incorrectly) removing FUSC from cars being resold from dealers, even if they haven’t gone through Tesla. Seems they feel that it’s transferable only in private party direct sales

If you think you’ll recoup your money no. If you like driving it, it’s less expensive than replacing and you are willing to risk a battery pack in the future, worth it

Good point - I don't have the correct equipment for Scan My Tesla. That said - Recurrent report shows maybe 3 miles loss over 60k miles since I purchased and as I said Teslafi seems happy. I will openly agree that neither is an in depth analysis. Anecdotely, I have seen no meaningful changes...

That said -- I'm still very happy I spent the money and upgraded to MCU2. Had way too many issues with the original MCU

Would be interesting to have 057wk chime in on this. I have wondered too if it's just anecdotal that low mile Teslas seem to have more battery issues or not. Suspect 057 has some statistics gathered on this. In my case I have a 2015 with 132k miles. I drive it hard an often. Peform about...

I would disagree. There is plenty of usability left in that vehicle. My only concern (as an early RWD) is that what is the condition of the drive motor. That should be inspected for coolant leakage before popping for a battery. You don't want to have a drive unit failure right after...

I'll start by saying I usually don't defend Tesla. However, other than manufacturer 'good will,' really Tesla (or any other car manufacturer) has any obligation in a situation like this. A warranty is a contract. Whether you drive the car a lot or a little, it's for a a defined time period...

Absolutely they are guessing! One has nothing to do with the other

Seems to be a software issue recently with Spotify. Have not had this issue, but have had (usually after getting back into the car during the day) where Spotify will give me the spinning wheel and not load anything new. If I do the 'two-button reboot', after the MCU restarts it will work again...

I would respectfully disagree. If the car is relatively new, and under the bumber-to-bumper warranty, rattles better well be done. I've claimed that on numerous new cars (not just high end). A rattle means something is not assembled correctly. This isn't a 20 year beater, it's supposed to be...

I would love to know how you figure the ‘average’ owner uses less than $200 per year. With the continual increases in supercharging rates, I’d easily be paying the same per mile as my old gas car if I didn’t have FUSC.

Typos. Sorry

From what I understand they are getting infrastructure funds as part of the opening their network As one who has used the other networks, yes they are that crappy

FWIW - I had my 2015 S retrofitted. Mobile service did it, and had it done within an hour. I would recommend for anyone who has it done, check your AC charging, Super Charging and CCS charging as soon as possible. In my case there were no issues. I charged at a Charge Point and Greenlots CCS...
