    Dogs in my Model X

    I wanted to find out how you are dealing with dogs in your X. I like to keep it clean...space age and all, I find my dogs were shedding everytime they went for a ride and making a lot of mess. I found this car seat/trunk cover fit very well for my model X. Anyone else use dog covers. I bought...

    Why you should never let friend drive your Model X. CEO of Coffee.club runs a Red Light

    Great feedback from everyone! Not meant to get people upset but simply show what can go wrong if you don't train your friends/guests before they get behind the wheel. Especially with technophobes.

    Why you should never let friend drive your Model X. CEO of Coffee.club runs a Red Light

    Surprised at the criticism. Clearly he didn't know how to drive it and probably wasn't the best listener. But he learned after a few minutes what to do and not to do. And loves it and will probably by a Tesla. Just thought it was a funny video that might show us how someone who doesn't have a...

    Why you should never let friend drive your Model X. CEO of Coffee.club runs a Red Light

    Wow, could not believe my friend could not figure out how to drive the Tesla, caught on Facebook live video. He's the CEO of Coffee.club, a pretty smart guy but you just have to watch. He ran two red lights and probably got 2 red light camera tickets I have to pay for. Beware of letting friends...

    please help: Front door latch just failed have to drive 400 miles in AM with latch warning beeping!

    The latch on my car broke on Driver Front Door in March. 3 days after getting delivery. 9xx vin. I had to hold the door closed manually -- it did not close for about 1 hour on highway as I drove it home. They replaced both locks on both doors and on the work order it stated that they replaced...

    What will you name your Model X?

    Seems like SYFY from movies is having the biggest draw here. My daughter got Jarvis from Iron Man. Perigrin Took is also from LOTR.

    How would you like to see the Auto Pilot improved?

    I did notice, after engaging the signal that when a car is approaching from behind on the right, the car still changes lanes. Happened once and the car pulling up was a bit ticked off I cut him off. I am now very careful now to make certain I don't initiate the signal without making certain no...

    Elon Musk has a Sleeping Bag at end of Model X production line

    Just saw a story about Elon sleeping at the end of Model X production line. We are on the edge of a revolution in SUV's with the X and the leader of the revolution knows how important it is to make it successful. Its one complicated vehicle because it is the most advanced vehicle ever...

    MX Front Door Issue

    Front doors are a major issue for everyone. I had both latches replaced and on the work order it said "Replace again with new latches in the future". Doors are something they need to address. I had to send my car back on 3rd day. What is your vin number?

    How would you like to see the Auto Pilot improved?

    I too have the issue when I am on a road that has no median. It drives as close to center as possible which is good but people tend to drive just slightly to the right when oncoming traffic is approaching. If there is a biker or person/obstacle on the right it should slow down and go to the...

    How would you like to see the Auto Pilot improved?

    Much talk on this forum has been how to improve the Model X (Doors/Sun Shade etc.) I thought it would be good to just focus on one piece of technology. I am certain Tesla engineers review the forums so felt it was ideal to leave feedback here. I would also like to hear your stories of how...

    I think Moxie is one of my favorites!

    Crunch! Falcon Wing Doors fail to sense obstacle

    I too have had issues, not with Falcon doors but sensors, freezing, and driver passenger doors. I have had the latches replaced but still with on old mechanism. I look at this way. First of all at this stage we are all innovators (beta testors) for what is arguably the most advanced vehicle...

    Model X - Missing and most wanted features

    My #1 request for Version 2 of Model x would be "smart glass" like the ones on Boeing's 787 dream liners. The sun generates a lot of heat in South Florida and does penetrate the tinted glass above. I love the space age feel of the window shield but sometimes feel like I have to wear a hat inside...

    What will you name your Model X?

    I think Merlin is a great name given it's a magical experience driving the "X" especially with the Auto features.
