Not sure if this is the right place for this question, but my 'advisor' at the local SC says that I have to make sure the "total with all the options" is less than $80K if I want to take advantage of the tax credit. If true, that severely limits options! I was going to get the 7 seat, with...

Had the exact same issue as I was in the far-left HOV lane, and was using FSD with route planned, and my next exit was just over 10 miles away... and all of a sudden, the message "Changing Lanes to Follow Route" (which is BS!) popped up while the car was slowing down to match the traffic in the...

So far, thank gawd, I have been apparently very lucky with phantom braking. I've only had a handful of times where this happened over the years. Others, like you, seem to have many more occurrences! To be clear, my X has definitely "slowed down" on occasion, but it's more like taking the foot...

In my 25K+ miles on AP, and recently about 2K+ on FSD, I have rarely had a need to do a "Bug Report" (simply done by pressing the voice command button on the steering wheel and saying 'bug report' followed immediately by a brief description of the issue) before this last "Recall" update about...

Just gotta say something.... If you look at the OP's posts, everything seems a tad incredulous. Placed order for CPO late August 2019, got 'screwed' on price; Early Sept, 2019, got 'screwed' on delivery; Jan 2020 placed order for MY and got 'screwed' again? Didn't check on order for 1.5...

Thanks @elindley01 ! This is just what we were looking for! We've been so very lucky in that we haven't had NEARLY the issues you've had with your X... but are we just biding our time? This is the main question! I was unaware of the "Acceleration Boost", and that may be a deciding factor...

I've got a 2017 MX 100D with every upgrade I could get. LOVE the car! However, although we've never had any issues that required an SC visit sans a replacement windshield, there are a couple things that are now happening that make me just a touch concerned. Occasionally, the charge port...

When a situation happens that you want Tesla to review, you immediately push your voice control button on the steering wheel and start by saying "Bug Report"... immediately followed by a succinct explanation of what you feel is a 'bug'. For instance: I had a regular area on I-5 that had an...

I have driven that stretch, and don't recall my X (radar equipped, if that matters in this case... probably not ;)) ever reacting. However, I don't have the chime active, as I... er... "the car"... routinely drives 10+ over o_O. Next time I drive that stretch, and they're actually LIT (seems...

Interesting! Does it drastically slow down (brake), or is it just an area that the display-only gets wrong?

That does suck! I'd be discouraged too! Did you do a Bug Report when these things happened? I've had so few (knocking on wood), but when they happen, I immediately file a Bug Report.

We are a Tesla bunch... with 4 cars in the group; 1 MX (me), 2 M3, 1 MS, and 1 MY. The M3's have 78K and 64K miles... the MS has 114K miles, my MX has 40K and the MY has a whopping 2K. The only SC visit was me (unfortunately) for a broken windshield. Of course, the largest freakin' windshield...

Are you kidding me!?! All the supplies purchased at Costco in the back were lost!!! Great the the occupants were unhurt... but the 48-pack of peanut butter???? Oh, the carnage!! :eek:

I gave my M3 preorder (submitted the first day of reservations for the M3) to my nephew. He now has the car, and has for over 3 years... We weren't able to 'transfer' anything, but were told that once the config email arrived, then I could change the name from myself to my nephew. Easy peasy...

Thanks @thesmokingman The wording of this makes it appear that Tesla Vision is the way of the future, and they'll be discontinuing radar altogether. I guess I'll bite-the-bullet and get my MY on order! :) Now, to decide between the long range and the performance? Argh! The salesperson...
