I'm just one owner / stock holder, but I'm done with Elon. He is going way too far down the conspiracy rabbit hole. He just won't put down the twitter device. Stock is sold and I'll drive the car until it needs something major, like all my previous cars before it. Won't be looking at Tesla for...

I got the battery out. Tried to charge it with my battery charger but it didn't take much charge. Tried reinstalling and was able to get the door open but then the driver window was starting to do funny things so I disconnected. Was reading 9.6v under load and 12.5v once I disconnected...

Add me to this list of dead batteries. 25k miles, Sept 2018 delivery. Model 3 dual motor. Called service and they wanted to tow it to the service center, no mobile appts available. Going to call the service center tomorrow and see if I can just pick up the battery and replace myself. It will be...

Thanks everyone for the suggestions. For the trip up it was 251wh, the trip back was 307. Very interesting result after recharging at home last night, my est 100% range has gone up to 281, which is 12 miles greater than my low point. I charged to 80% last night. I realize these numbers are only...

Usually only drive around town so never get below 40%, charge to 80-90% at home. Had to take a road trip and did a 100% charge yesterday and only got 273 Miles at 100%. Very concerning. Made it to destination with 23% remaining and did a charge to 100% to get back. Same 273 @ 100%. Couldn't make...

Just wanted to follow up. They were able to find the design proposal and rescheduled the meeting on Friday. Salesperson was pleasant to deal with. Sounds like to me they need to build out a better work stream. Seems very seat of the pants right now. I understand why they are doing online...

My mom requested a quote for solar panels + powerwall. Someone came out and did a very detailed analysis of the house, spent at least 4 hours at the house. Two weeks later, an adviser scheduled an online meeting to discuss the proposal. We join at the scheduled time, but no one else is there. I...

If I could I would, but I can't seem to find that option anywhere. Maybe a mod could? The service from Thursday until this morning was pretty bad. The local employees in Owings Mills were great though.

Final Update: Mobile service tech called to see if I was around this afternoon since he lived nearby. Took less than 15 minutes to replace the actuator. Said he has replaced a bunch of them and doesn't know why the safety latch one keeps failing. Its the same part as the frunk release actuator...

Update: I wish I could change the thread title to "Getting in touch with Tesla service at some locations is horrible". I'm not sure whats going on at the Rockville service center, but I tried calling 4 times, 20 minutes apart this morning and each time it rang and went to the service center...

Thanks for the ideas everyone! I will try calling the local center and using the check status option or the sales option. The wait times would be bearable except for the fact that we aren't getting a call back. That is what is really grinding on me. Called the roadside number and have been on...

First things first... I love the car and it is fun to drive. I am a believer in the company. My late father's bucket list was a Tesla S that he enjoyed for his last couple months. That being said, we had our first major issue since taking delivery. The frunk safety latch won't release and my...

Recently subscribed to TeslaFi and saw on the charging graph that my charging with a NEMA15-50 plug and the mobile connector varies between 32A and 16A. It dips to 16A for approx 10 minutes. I've charged my mom's S on the same outlet at 40A no problem. Anyone else seeing this?

My cable has been spoken for. Sorry not sure how to delete my original post.
