    Unstable connection with my iPhone via Bluetooth

    My car is a 2018 Tesla Model 3 with software 2023.44.30.8 06f534d46010. The car has premium connectivity, whatever that is. My phone is a Motorola Moto 5 Power. The car does not have a warranty. The car has enhanced autopilot. It is supposed to change lanes but that doesn't work on a 2018...

    Unstable connection with my iPhone via Bluetooth

    I don't like to use my key card, as if I forget to remove it immediately, it can fall between my seat and the consul. I want to always use my telephone. However, my android phone will unconnect from the car's computer at least once a week. When it fails to work, I use the keycard. Once I do...

    Bluetooth phone key entry

    I really don't want a key fob as that is just something to loose. I never lock my car and try to to never leave anything inside the car for anyone to steal anymore. I learned that when someone just smashed the window on my Porsche to steal a hundred dollar item, and $1,000 later everything was...

    Wife locked out with phone key in car

    I locked my self out with the keycard in the cup holder and the telephone on the seat. I had to find my other key card in my house to get in. After I retrived my telephone, I find that it is not interfacing properly with my car any more. I used to walk up to my car and my headlight would...

    Model S Slid Away...

    I spent a good part of my life living in ND. Many secondary roads in ND are not plowed, no sand or salt, and one get a skill for driving quickly on ice and learns what is dangerous. When the ice is very cold, traction is good. When the temp is close to melting or melting the traction is much...

    Turn signal sound too quiet?

    Thank you ZapCarM3. Notice that Meros didn't come back on again after silly insulting remarks. I have good hearing, but still screw up once in a while. I drive many different cars and feel isn't the same in the different signal stocks. The Tesla in one of the best. I see many of my older...

    Dear Elon: just remove navigation from your cars

    I have spent a lot money on nav systems and a lot of time learning how to use them. For the last ten years I have used my telephone exclusively. I drive a number of different cars and having one nav unit is what makes me most comfortable. I have holders in all my cars for my telephone so that...

    Is Autopilot at fault in this accident?

    Arguing all this fault business is such a waste of time. Down here in So Cal, we want to stay alive and enjoy life. Every day I travel the most crowded freeways in the world. I watch semi drivers time and time again trying to move over lanes on our complicated roads when drivers don't want to...

    Very Shaky/ Bumpy Ride

    I know, kverma, just where your are comming from. Tesla Model 3 is not all things for all people. Each day I walk out to the garage I have three cars to choose, Lexus LS, Jaguar XKR, and a Model 3. The Lexus does nearly everything much better. The ride is much smoother and quietier and it...

    Is Autopilot at fault in this accident?

    This is a perfect example of why I do my own driving. If I were driving I would be watching closely when passing a semi and I would have been on the shoulder of the road with the brakes on before he could have hit me. There is not enough time to wait and see if the Autopilot will protect you...

    Model S range and interior update imminent?

    I wanted to buy a new Model S but had so much trouble with my Model 3 that now I will wait to see the updated version of the Model S and the price and range. I will compare it with the Lucid. I am so sick of dealing with Tesla that I will go with the Lucid if it is anywhere close in price. No...

    Things I worry about

    Any accident on the freeway where Tesla will not pick up the car and the regular towing driver doesn't know how to handle the car. Glass breakage where replacement cost from Tesla is over $1,000: windshield, rear glass and top glass. Frunk lid can easily slip back and break windshield. Rear...

    Consumers disdain for “Self Driving”

    Keep an old MGA or some other old classic ICE car tucked away so when your self driving Tesla goes in for service for a week or two, then its back to fun driving again.

    Consumers disdain for “Self Driving”

    Self driving will be great for comutting in LA traffic when I can jump in and say "Wake me when I arrive".

    2021 Model 3 and differences from 2020

    I love my piano black consul as it has a quality look in an interior where it is lacking. My sill plates and sun visor are fine. all I need is double glass to cut down the road noise which is excessive compared to my ICE cars. I don't have an iPhone.
