I feel like I must share... This is my email to Tesla's Body Shops Advocate team. Yesterday the lady hung up in my face after blaming me for "cussing" at her. I explained the term "sh1t happened" should not be taken as me cussing at anyone. but got the phone hung up in my face. Today I got an...

This was in Brooklyn NY. I didn't realize this would be pinned on me. I would have got the police to come do a report. A week later when I came back after realizing how this is going to go down, the road was fixed and I had nothing to document anymore. My car is still at the body shop. 2 months...

I'm out of my Model S for 3 weeks. Parts back ordered expected to arrive in 2-3 weeks. My damage is in excess of $20k. All due to hitting a normal pothole which should resulted in nothing bigger than a split second discomfort in any other car. The whole front end collapsed. Tesla take no...

I had the same issue this weekend. Very easy. Pry the sides of the center piece under the Cubby (Place pry tool between the leather like material and the inner plastic wall), and than you will have access to a small piece that sits under the cubby. Pry it out, it clipped in and come out easy...

I had a similar issue with the windshield blocking my EZ-Pass tag (toll RF transmitter). I called Tesla. The recommend placing the tag by the dotted area to the right hand side of the rear view mirror, or in on of the windshield corners. Problem solved. I suggest you tray and place the GPS...

I installed the LED and display of an STiR Plus (identical to the 9500ci) in my mirror this weekend. Unfortunately, in my haste, I chipped the bottom of the mirror while trying to separate the front glass from the back plastic cover using a metal screw driver. What a bummer :( If you are...

After getting my 85, I can tell you I would never go with the 60 in a million years. Unless you are driving Mrs Daisy, the miles Tesla is stating are "Rated" miles. I drive a little quicker than average and makes real world mils in a ration of 1:1.5 to rated miled. For every 60 Rated miles range...

Create 3 spacers from Plastic or PVC tubing. You can easily find it at your local hardware store. You can be few millimeters off on length in picture. since the plate plastic base is flexible. Use a box cutter to create small cuts on the inner edge of the plate base and insert long zip ties (I...

I didn't read the whole thread, but just wanted to add my fix. I think that a spare tire in the frunk is a bad idea. I the event of a front collision, that tire will push the dash area onto the front passengers. The rear trunk is a much better idea if you could live with the loss of room. My...

Wow, what great news! I am so excited to learn about Tesla backing their drive units for 8 years unlimited miles! Seems to me Elon is a fierce business man with a passion to his vision that make me smile with admiration. This news set my mind to put off the extended warranty. I will take my...

I read a bunch of posts about the topic, and frankly, I'm confused. I am getting delivery of my 85KW in 5 weeks. If I can change the way I spec my car, it would be by a small margin. This doubt about the right choice about suspensions is creeping and I need an opinion from owners in my neck of...

Such a disappointment... I am taking delivery in 5 weeks. I wanted to buy the 4 year extended warranty (basically 8 years upfront) in advance. I read somewhere on the forums here about owners that had issues with cars that totaled. I asked my Tesla rep and he told me absolutely no refund under...

Outlet and main fuse box are on the same wall in a townhouse. House get a total of 150 AMP. I order a dual charger as an investment for the future but for now, I'm planning on using a 40 amp charging. I got a quote for $300 and I'm happy with it. Thank you all for the replay.

Hello, After long 2 months, I am 5 weeks away from a delivery date. It's time to take 220V garage charging preparation seriously. I wanted to know what was the cost other Tesla owners had to pay to set a 220V outlet in their garage. I am planning to move out of my current house 10 months from...
