Which warranty are you referencing? I wasn't talking about the 8yr battery and drive unit warranty, rather the bumper to bumper warranty.

Sorry I've been away from computers for a bit. I dont remember all of the details but I my last EW paid for an expensive component of the AC system and also had an expensive repair to take care of something when I got a "car might not restart warning", I vaguely recall tech saying that it...

My MS will be 6 years old in June and my Tesla extended warranty will expire. The vehicle has 42,300 miles on it. I love this car and can not afford to replace it with another MS. I can get another 2 year, 67,000m comprehensive warranty (Xcelerate) for $3500 or 3 year, 78000m for $3800. Any...

My 2018 Model S has quite suddenly developed a very bad smell in the cabin when I first enter. The smell goes away pretty quickly after air filter is on. I had a mobile service guy come and change the filter. There was mouse scat in the filter, but the filter change did not fix the issue. I took...

Not C470, but I drive from Boulder to CO Springs once a month on I25, I experience one or two startling episodes of Phantom braking each time. I really haven't paid particular attention to exact location.

I live in Boulder and in the last month have had two service appts at Superior SC. Everything handled by texts via app, no phone calls. Conveying info over texts takes a lot longer than one phone call. Several iterations were required to make sure details were straight. Also I never saw anyone...

I have a SC appt tomorrow and asked them if they could sell me a replacement key fob. They said that 2018 MS key fobs were "extremely constrained" and that they could not do it. I'm not sure what the deal is, usual Tesla WTF. Maybe so, however that came from another MS owners experience buying...

Great, Thank you!

Does anyone know what Tesla charges to replace a 2018 Model S key fob? I see there are some available on Ebay but AFAIK if they have not been de-activated that they can not be re-programed.

Later it seems

anybody know when this SC will re-open?

My next Tesla will be a M3 for sure and I'm wondering if it would be a better value to trade in my 2018 MS P100D now or wait until later. The car runs fine, has 37,000 miles and I love it but will not be able to afford another MS. How are current trade in values for 2018 MS P100Ds? My car also...

Same thing here. I got the "vehicle may not restart" notice, scheduled a service and diagnostics revealed the battery coolant heater. I was able to drive it to a SC one hour away and had car back two days later, .fixed under extended warranty with a $200 deductible.

The Tidal music app has disappeared and a screen reboot doesn't bring it back. I've seen some older threads about this but nothing recent. Any one else having this difficulty. It was working for a while, logged into my Tidal account, but a few days ago, I brought it up and had the spinning...

What kinds of issues are involved with deciding the future of this SC? Anyone have an estimate of when it may be back and running? Months, years? Is it a front burner or back burner priority for Tesla?
