Dirt* Doctor… “Car Wash”

Giga Berlin workers should be familiar with building if true.

Definitely not a Spark; can confirm it is a Tesla Model 1. Source: Trust me, bro.

Cannot believe I spotted this prototype out in the wild and that it is this far away from Fremont.

I had the door included in my service ticket to address other minor issues that were identified during delivery but agreed with both mobile service and the SC that it was not worth trying to fix; the door has fixed itself to an extent with use so it is hardly noticeable now.

This is an excerpt from a message I received from my SC: “The blind spot camera performance on older vehicles is neither a defect of materials or workmanship. It is a characteristic of the product. And it’s a characteristic that has been design enhanced in newer vehicle production…”

+1 for me. Off topic but I really wish they would only turn the side camera on above a certain mph -e.g. above ~55mph.

Some of the video contents may have been mentioned in the thread but adding in case it provides TL;DR context.

Definitely not attempting to fix it myself. There are local curb rash repair places I may consider taking it to. @MatildaModel3 I appreciate the link. The purpose of the thread was for anyone wondering what Tesla charges for an induction wheel replacement.

The inevitable happened recently 🥺. As shown in the pictures, I hit a red curb pulling into a spot. I cleaned most of it off but am now left with a damaged wheel. If anyone is curious, the SC estimates the fee to be ~$856 for the wheel only replacement. I know there are curb rash repair...

How is the visibility at night? I have equivalent of 15% on all windows and 50% on windshield and I am thinking of redoing the windows down to 5%.

I have had better luck with mobile service. I also had the frunk issue and mobile service replaced the grounding bolt that was causing the error per the service bulletin in a little over an hour in my garage.

Did it charge the car?

Yes

Just an update on this - I have not had any issues since posting this thread. @Wrkent100 If I recall correctly, the features were available after the purchase was complete. I just had to go out to car to enable all of them on the screen. I will just mention that I am glad I did not purchase...
