"hot outside" window control both in car and and in app. I want to preset all 4 windows to a small opening so that when I park, I can press a button or later tell the app to crack the windows open and also to open all the way. My old Ford C-MAX can lower all four windows by fob. It was nice...

Power off button was used when I got an error after using the manual release cord for the charger lock. The Tesla Support person I called said I must wait 4 minutes after power off button for the system to fully reset, during this 4 minutes I cannot touch any controls or exit the vehicle...

I actually don't know. I'll find out this weekend after my Christmas drive up north.

Out here in the west coast we need the badge to pass the first level chain control in the winter. I can drive past all the "pedestrian RWD's" pulled over in the snow putting on chains. I suppose I can show the police/highway person the dual motor on my screen, but I definitely can't be waved...

I got mine on last Sunday at the Fremont Pop-Up Service Center after replying via website to an email. I saw them install both P (with underline) and nonP badges (no underline). Technicians also installed my license plate including changing the white plastic expanders.

Got a call yesterday from Tesla to reschedule my service appt from the Fremont Service Center to this new dedicated Model 3 Pop-Up Center (PUC). It is on Kato where the delivery experience was last month. Several notes: 1. PUC has no loaners, instead gives you Lyft credit (up to $100/day)...

Ordered from AutoAnything when they had the coupon back in end of July/early Aug. I had three emails asking to reconfirm the order with shipping delays. Got another one a few days ago. Still no mat, but the price was good.

On Saturday I observed a Tesla employee driving new cars to park in empty spaces. As soon as the guy got out that was swarmed over by people looking for a car. There weren't as much refills as people driving off for sure. I think they could have organized the refilling better since there were...

It was a sunny day in Fremont. When you sit down in a car that has been in the sun, the car with black interior just feels hotter. There is always some part of the seat in direct sunlight. Then again, I checked the app just now, my parked car shows interior temp of 130F.

I picked up a car yesterday at the delivery event. Here's what happened: Just like everyone else, I got the email late on Friday. I RSVP'd and went on Saturday. Saturday was full of confusion. There was a check in line around noon for almost an hour. This is the first time for me to see...

The wait is killing me. I think my adding EAP by email killed my spot in queue. Seeing others getting their cars with a later config! pre-reveal online reservation, config 6/28 Blue AWD Aero, added EAP on 8/2 (Tesla account showing Sept-Nov). The EAP does not even show up in my Tesla account.

I did not have a vin.

From what I understand ISA has some discretion. For example they can waive the $500 change fee.
