    Yup, noticed condensation in all of the lenses after washing the car so decided to take a look at why and found every light cracked to the point I could split them open like the video.

    This is my car sitting for 24 hours in my garage. Sentry mode off.

    Eh, all 4 of my rear tail lights were cracked. Someone had the screw gun on kill. Tesla came out to the house and replaced all 4.

    Painters tape might be better if you can get your hands on some. It's a lot thinner and doesn't leave adhesive on the paint

    The person I referred to earlier found the noise actually coming from the top of the windshield as mentioned earlier. They used painters tape to troubleshoot. Not a bad idea...

    Someone in the local Tesla facebook group mentioned the same thing but with a Model 3. If it was my car, I would do/check the following: 1. check to see how the doors and panels align to each other. If one of the surfaces is protruding, that could create a "bump" in the air causing noise 2...

    Here's my completely subjective opinion on spending a lot of money on this particular car... Over 5 years ago, I drove off the lot in a Model S with a huge smile on my face. I have an even bigger one now. There are so few things in my life that I can spend money on that bring me this much...

    If the car is under warranty, I would take it in to the service center or have the mobile guys/gals come out and address it and use the warranty you paid for (I know Tesla techs have a track record of fking things up even worse). I would send this one back though.

    The rear window warping always gets me excited and then immediately disappointed. I look in the rearview mirror and see this widebody Audi RS5 coming up behind me, put the car in Plaid mode, only to see it morph into an old lady driving an A4

    Weird. I thought those were just printed on demand. I've always brought my own plate.

    It's funny how many people have a different perspective on what reliability means. It seems like most people think that if you have to bring your car in for service or you have to do some kind of maintenance on it, that it is unreliable - or that if a button pops off, it's unreliable. Wouldn't...

    The monolithic business models of current-day vehicle manufacturing are going to struggle to be able to catch Tesla. Tesla's ability to change the wheels on the bus while it's driving down the road makes it pretty resilient to almost anything. Granted, it's that model that makes the company a...
