    Model S Lemon (NY Lemon Laws)

    Update: I took it in to get my windshield replaced. A rock was kicked up by a truck on the highway and I had to pay the piper. (Speed was obviously not a factor *wink*) From there they said they would address my creaking issues and speaker issued (I either blew one out or the grill became less...

    Model S Lemon (NY Lemon Laws)

    I don't consider it trade down if I get the performance 3. It will cost probably 10k less (my s was 85k) but I love the improvements made on the 3. The windshield washer has a major advantage mounted on the blade. My S sprays all over the place even blasting the guy behind me. Sure its a smaller...

    Model S Lemon (NY Lemon Laws)

    I was thinking about using silicone and some type of foam spray and redo the headliner myself if it comes back after this visit I may go that route. It might make it harder to service any part in the headliner though. Also thinking of adding some silicone around the windshield to reduce wind...

    Model S Lemon (NY Lemon Laws)

    Jeez should I wait for the Y then? I love the car and I hate the issues. I expected an electric car with fewer part would have less issues but I was wrong. I have a Nissan Rogue as a second vehicle and over 5 years 0 service issue just an oil change every year and I replaced the brakes once.

    Model S Lemon (NY Lemon Laws)

    I definitely love the S but I feel swindled for a premium interior 5k addon. I haven't seen so many creaking noises with the 3 I assume it is because its made with fewer parts.

    Relentless. Does your dash also creak?

    Every goddam thing creaks in mine if you touch it the wrong way. The dash does creak a little but it is rare when driving over bumps. My headliner, however, is a different story. I am on my 6th visit would've been more if I had the time and service center availability. I'm considering the...

    Model S Lemon (NY Lemon Laws)

    My video sucks and is boring (this was after the third fix I'm going for the 6th fix now (would be more but service centers in NY is booked a month in advance so every time it comes back I have to wait a month or more to take it in depending on my schedule.)

    Quality Issues

    I 100% agree with you. The cars are great but these little things drive me nuts. I love my Model S but Tesla needs way better quality control. You pay an extra 2500 for that paint it better be good. Because you can use that to wrap or dip that car and it may not be permanent but it would look...

    Model S Lemon (NY Lemon Laws)

    So my Model S came with a creaking interior headliner. I've had it fixed for 5 times now and it keeps coming back and getting worse. Tesla had the car for over 3 weeks over that time. One session took over a week once and the rest were a few days each. So far my car just completed a year and 10k...

    Model S windshield wiper upgrade!

    Does any one know if it is possible to upgrade the model S wiper assembly to the one that is on the Model 3? The Model S wipers are not that great during the winter. Overspray and spraying at the wrong spot is a huge problem and it makes the car less safe in the winter. For this I want to...

    Loaner

    The fact that a brand new model 3 went in 3 times for service says a lot about quality of these cars. My December 2017 model S had 4 visits to fix creaking noises and the issue is back again. This is not good look for a 90k car

    Someone unplugged my car

    Ai really needs to take over driving, charging and maintenance. People are idiots and scammers. They drive like morons and don't get me started on the scammers (body shop and insurance) and egotistical police writing bogus tickets. All should be out of jobs and let the cars take over it's sad...

    Someone unplugged my car

    What a toxic group of scumbags... I thought this forum had at least a little bit of class. You should all be ashamed.

    Software Update 2018.10.4

    Am I the only one that think AP1 is still leagues ahead. When I used a loaner AP1 car from them it drove better, had less hold the wheel nag and it saw more things on the road. It quickly determined when there are more than 1 lane. The newest version of AP still struggle with that. And when the...
