That's what I'm curious about -- whether others only received notification within the last week or so (which, again, wouldn't have been an issue provided that they had the supply to install the modems before the 2/22 deadline). Not sure about the posting issue, but it makes sense to me that it...

I am aware (now) of the notification. Is your point that for all products and services we purchase, we should scour the manufacturer or service provider's website for updates that may or may not be relevant to the products or services we purchase? I received a direct-to-customer communication...

It actually is news to me. I guess I buy phones frequently enough that it's never an issue. So strike that assumption from your post. To the next statement, yes, good thing Tesla reminded me as it would be incredibly disappointing come 2/22 to get in my car and find out that none of the...

Thanks to Tesla for telling me only a week ago that I'm losing my connectivity on 2/22 in my 2013 Model S P85+ and need a new modem for all applications requiring the Internet. I immediately schedule an appointment and the earliest they have is 2/18. No big deal...but now with supply issues...

Ordinarily, I would agree 100%, but there is so much pressure on something big coming out of their flagship vehicles in the short term for a variety of reasons, I do think that this variant may be getting the priority it deserves from a delivery timing perspective (evidenced by testing at the...

Same with my 2013.

Per his tweet, looks like the rear facing seats will be part of the "Plaid variant". Too bad it's looking like we'll have to wait over a year for it to go into production, but looking forward to it!

Update: So, after a two week wait, a mobile technician came out and replaced the charge port door . . . or at least so I think, because the following morning, the door popped open again with the magnet stuck on it. Scheduled another service appointment on the mobile app. Soonest appointment...

I'm in the same boat, and I do love having the free supercharging when we do take road trips.

It's black, and very well taken care of. I'll post it on here if I do end up going the sell route in the future. The only reason I'd plan to trade it in is if they offer a deal like they did with Raven -- e.g., free ludicrous mode for existing owners.

I've been thinking about swapping out my 2013 MS P85+ with a new MS for sometime now, but it's as enjoyable and low maintenance to drive now as it was when I purchased it six years ago. With all the back and forth about pending "refreshes," (however you want to define it) and various issues...

So as to prevent any potential claims that anything I do myself violates extended service agreement coverage, I'm asking them how much it would cost for THEM to simply re-adhere the magnet to the charge port door (which is otherwise in fine shape).

The magnet just became detached from the charge port door of my 2013 MS P85+. (Not the first time.) Tesla responded that because it's "covered" under my extended service agreement, they can swap out the entire charge port door . . . for payment of the $200 deductible. Gee, thanks.

Let me know if you find a quality installer with a system that is compatible with Powerwalls and I will do the same.

Well, it's not just the Northeast anymore. Include sunny, low-rain Phoenix (and everywhere else) now. After several months of back and forth with submitting electric usage info and two on-site assessments, I was just informed that they are declining to perform the installation. After an email...
