    Failed Rear Lower Control Arm / Service Bulletin SB-19-31-001

    Here is the latest update on my situation. After having repaired what was broken (so they replaced the broken left lower control arm, replaced preemptively the right side, replaced a bunch of suspension related things that were also broken, not sure if those broke because the control arm...

    Failed Rear Lower Control Arm / Service Bulletin SB-19-31-001

    Thanks for pointing this out @MP3Mike . I'm surprised, but I'll trust their investigation. I still believe this part should not break that often, and the SC told me that the new parts I will get are at revision #4, which clearly indicates that there is a problem with the original parts (don't...

    Failed Rear Lower Control Arm / Service Bulletin SB-19-31-001

    After talking with the SC supervisor, it comes down to 7000$ to fix everything (it apparently includes a few other worn out suspension related parts that they noticed while looking at the car). They also agreed that this is not normal and dangerous, but it hasn't reached the state of being a...

    Failed Rear Lower Control Arm / Service Bulletin SB-19-31-001

    I am the latest victim of this dreaded lower control arm problem. It happened like many others, I had been driving on the highway for a couple of hours, coming back from vacation with my wife and kids in the car. No indications that this was going to happen, the car handled as usual. I exited...

    Ottawa Model 3

    I'd love to share your enthusiasm, but I'm afraid you'll learn the route between your house and Tesla Ferrier in Montreal... I've heard many rumors, but so far no SC planned in Ottawa. I got in touch with the Regional Service Manager, East Canada and he said that we should start seeing more...

    Model X in Canada - Status

    I'm so glad I've converted my X reservation for an S last September... In my opinion, the X is a very nice SUV, but not worth the price on the Canadian market. As I was told a couple of months ago by a TMC member, when you know you are going to spend a lot of dollars on a US product, you...

    Let the hacking begin... (Model S parts on the bench)

    And if you are into math, the SHA256 is a lossy function, which means you can't find the original input since different inputs could produce the same output. The SHA256 is a one-way function. Crypto is different, beside the fact that it appears like gibberish for most humans ;-)

    Anyone Reserving Model 3 in Montreal?

    by the end of March, it won't be as cold (I really hope so!) and you won't need to charge a lot to drive back (unless you have a 60kwh?). Find a plugshare user/public station and combine that with a little subway ride and you should be all set. I too am from Ottawa and I was also thinking...

    Eastern Canada Superchargers

    Last time I asked, the guy at the service desk in Montreal said they were planning for 6-8 stalls at Dix30 and about the same at Place Vertu.

    Record Snowfall in Ottawa

    I have a 85D and I got stuck too, right in front of my neighbor! I also used my snowblower to clear a path... I'll see tomorrow if I drive my SUV or not! ;-)

    Eastern Canada Superchargers

    I was at this supercharger earlier today and it is still out of order (so only 1 stall available). I was also there on the 24th and at one point, we were 6 cars in queue for a spot... The Montreal supercharger situation is ridiculous. They need to fix this.

    cryptic message

    I have been experimenting the same issue for the past 2 months. I took it to the Montreal SC and they have calibrated both the camera and the fron radar, but I'm still getting that message. Every time it happened, there was no sign of obstruction or there was no reason why it wouldn't work...

    Canadian Price Increase Imminent

    I had an appointment at Montreal SC last Friday and I was told that it would become a reality in April 2016... I don't know why he would be lying to me, so with Tesla's record of being on time, I think we should get a SC in Ottawa somewhere in the fall of 2016. And I must not be driving on the...

    Canadian Price Increase Imminent

    Contrats mikec8! My story is pretty much the same, but back in August (and a 85D instead of a 90D). I was originally going for a X (almost 1.5 year holding a reservation), but I had enough of swallowing multiple price increase. I am very happy with my S, hopefully you'll be too. Now we just...
