    Getting refund for roadster reservation

    I deposited in June and cancelled in August. No refund yet. Tesla has made 3 unkept promises To return $45k of my $50k deposit by wire transfer. I am going to have to take Them to court in Connecticut to get any attention to the dysfunction in the Tesla Finance Dept. RB Strong

    Getting refund for roadster reservation

    Model S/X dashboard User Interface safety issue

    These responses are so misguided. Like Tesla can do no wrong and it is the customers who should adapt.

    Model S/X dashboard User Interface safety issue

    You did not fully comprehend the post. " in that steering wheel position and many others ....are blocked" The point is it is smarter for Tesla to alter the dash display than it is for thousands of customers to sit uncomfortably because of a Tesla oversight.

    Model S/X dashboard User Interface safety issue

    We all know there have been multiple S and X crashes where the driver thought they were in auto steer mode but were likely not. That may unfortunately be true in many cases. It turns out that when cruising at speed the preferred driving position puts the steering wheel adjustment down low so...

    VIN Assignment

    I must have been bad. Configured Dec 11 and no VIN five weeks later. Is this a record? Do I win anything? Brian

    Did you not get your model 3 within promised window?

    I configured Dec 11 with a ‘4 week delivery’ And 5 weeks later I do not even have a VIN. Not reassuring.

    Your Tesla will not be delivered if you are UI.

    East Coast timing

    I configured on 12/11 and received a 4 week delivery estimate. It is now Jan 15 and I do not yet have a VIN. Be wary that you may have to wait longer than the estimate. If I do not have a VIN by this Friday I will defer and wait for AWD. Brian
