They can’t even stay on message about about what the cost is for. George says it costs a lot to do this and I buy that, but the letter that was sent out flat out lies to customers with this line: “Supercharger hardware and software must be calibrated and tested during installation, so it must be...

I am P732 and I just bailed. First it was not including cupholders, which we hear might come later in an opportunity console (opportunty for Tesla to charge that is), then it was $600 wiper blades every year, now $1000 fee for superchargers listed as included and the reason I went from the 40 to...

I think the itemization is a good idea, it would be helpful for some, but for me, it isn't going to be enough. I don't really care if the service takes one person 5 minutes or 5 techs and 3 days. Tesla sold me a car, and I signed my MVPA with the expectation that Tesla set, that service costs...

I think you may have misinterpreted the meaning of the "money wasn't the issue" comment. Money wasn't the issue in terms of being able to afford the maintenance, but money is indeed the issue in the face of being forced to pay for the maintenance, which many of us feel is too high for the...

I am 100% with you, it is not about the money. While many of us could afford to have our pockets picked, I, for one, am not going to smile about it.

You might have left out some key pieces of data when you asked the question. What my level headed friends say to paying $2400 extra for a car that was marketed as basically not really needing traditional maintenance at all, is being delivered feature incomplete and the manufacurer will not...

Just to clear it up, I am p732, not a signature holder, so my car is not 100K+. I do think Sig owners should get something for thy extra ~5K premium especially in light of the odd delivery order that seems to unfolding, but I won’t get in to that. Your comparison to Tesla as a house in a flood...

Here is a model I would find acceptable. Option 1 - Pay $600 at time of service for the first 8 years Option 2 - Pay $475 a year prepaid at year 1 and year 5 for covering the first * years Option 3 - I'll bring the car in for inspection at whatever interval Tesla want me to but I'll just pay...

Larry you and I agree 100% on the reality, we are just 180 degrees on the remedy. I believe early adopters that are essential in creating the success of a company should be rewarded, not penalized.

There seems to be quite a few comments explaining away or excusing Tesla’s actions because this is a new car and we are first adopters, beta testers etc. I see this as the exact opposite. If we are the ones taking the leap of faith, I fully expect Tesla to take the leap with us and cut us a...

I am extremely disappointed in Tesla and George B's response, I expected some back tracking, and what I received was, "I know you won't like this." I firmly believe that paying an additional $600 a year is unacceptable. I generally love Tesla and what they are doing, but this has changed it...

The stereo really needs more granularity. 11 steps is not enough. It is cute that it goes to 11, but if 11 is going to be the top, it needs to get there by half or even better quarter steps.

Agreed, I have the same problem on some web sites when ordering things. I could care less if the cheap t-shirts I want are in stock this second. If I order 10, ship them to me whenever, don't cancel my order over and over until I happen to order at the exact time when you have 10 in stock...

The site did does indicate that I would still have delivery in November even with the options I picked that might delay my order (230 battery and Grey leather) as long as I complete my order by 8/25/2012.
