2016 MS 75 92k miles Lots of supercharging 221 mi @ 90% Bay Area

ok, it's my turn...no error code, but just a message on the dash itself that came and went. No other visual hint (ie no error code on the main screen, no exclamation point etc). The initial message appeared when I was parked on a slight slope, so I am tempted to believe that it's just the...

I realize there are multiple threads on the topic, but I want to make one re. 2016 MS in particular since the windshields have evolved over time. I just got my new flex transponder and want to make sure I maximize my chances of "success". Way back, I remember reading that it should be placed to...

I've had my share of broken door handles (3 replacements at last count), but this appears to be a different issue: the door handle will always pop out and retract just fine however the door will not unlock 99% of the time. There is always a random time when it will open but it's stuck otherwise...

So, I received that build last night (2016 AP1, MS75) and there is something very wrong (or very right if you're a scammer...). Basically, the odometer (as well as trip 1 and 2, miles since last charge etc) was stuck. Meaning you could potentially drive 100,000 extra miles and resell the car...

Thanks. I thought this is what I did, but I will try again when I get back.

So, I am trying to use scheduled charging and for the life of me, I can't figure out how to get it to work. It took me a while to realize that this was accessible via that tiny > at the bottom of the screen with a "target" as big as a needle, but even now, when i get to the screen, it's...

So this guy decided that stop signs did not apply to him. I almost avoided him but he managed to hit my passenger side: rear passenger door, rear panel, rim and bumper. I am inclined to go through Tesla and have requested an estimate. AAA's approved shop is Chilton and I noticed that they're...

2016 S75 (unlocked 60) with 47k miles 206 @ 90% and it's been fairly stable over the last 18 months. Usually supercharging from ~30% to ~90% twice a week.

The drop-off line at my kid's school looks like the Fremont post-production parking lot. Hello from the 650.

Thank you both, this is very helpful. @demundus I would never mess with my car's firmware and void the warranty. Conceptually though, could Tesla do both a pack fuse and firmware update or are there known hardware limitations with my car specs that would not make that a possibility to begin...

Reviving this thread as there is a lot of knowledge here. So, my 2016 MS75 (under warranty) is at my local service center. It just died as I was pulling out of a parking lot at 3 mph: "Pull over now" message with flashing lights on the dash. It didn't move one inch after that warning came on...

Brief update: my interaction with the service center has been flawless so far. All communication done efficiently by text, loaner secured by mid day today (clean MS75D). As luck would have it, the car was working just fine when they took it off the truck last night. They could see the error...

I am planning a family adventure and would love input re. where to charge in SoCal (too many options, nice problem to have, I know). So we will stop at Harris Ranch and in Bakersfield for sure. After that is where I would love insights from the locals. I suspect we will get down there around...

+ 1 This happened to me this afternoon: -> Pulling out of a parking spot at a shopping center, in reverse, slow and steady, happy. -> Put it in drive, moved forward for about 10ft, it stuttered a bit, then full on Christmas tree lights on the dash with the "Stop/Pull over safely message. ->...
