    Insurance Agent Email!

    I have Liberty and its the same situation where you have no actual agent. I just used a general customer service email and insurance was not an issue during delivery.

    Screen Yellowed, Again?

    I was told that they will do the treatment once. Tesla does not consider the yellow border to be a defect or problem with operation, but considers it a cosmetic issue. It is definitely worth asking them I would think.

    DIY UV Treatment for Yellowed MCU Screen

    I have had the screen in my 2018 model S replaced for the yellow border. The new screen turned yellow as well. I took it to the service center to have them do the UV treatment on the new screen and it worked for a while. I think it has been about a year now and the yellow border is coming back...

    FSD Upgrade Option Gone

    I was looking at my tesla account using my computer, not the app on my phone, and noticed that there is a subscribe button in the upgrades section. When you click on it all you get is a message to "Check back for future updates". Perhaps they are preparing the FSD subscription feature?

    Need help with buying decision

    I agree with the above. We are considering another Tesla and I have been leaving the FSD option off and opting for bigger battery. When we bought our model S I only ordered the 75 because I thought it was enough range. Two years and ten percent degradation later I am really wishing we went with...

    100k miles in a facelift Model S

    Nevermind! I found the other thread you started with the DIY UV. :)

    Summon in empty parking lot

    I mapped the parking lot at work some time ago. Weeks later I tried smart summon late in the evening after most people went home. The car appeared to be following the parking lanes even though most stalls were empty. Despite the easy conditions it still failed twice and refused to finish coming...

    Wiki Sudden Loss Of Range With 2019.16.x Software

    I have a May 2018 S75D with about 34,000 miles on it. My current battery capacity is about the same as yours as measured on CAN bus and by calculation. We verified that the battery is not capped and is charging to 4.2 V. I have found other threads where many other owners report similar rated...

    100k miles in a facelift Model S

    Great to hear your story! I am curious about your home solution to the yellow screen. Is there another thread on the forum that details how that is done? And my headlight also has a burned out DRL. Still need to take it in....

    Good time to lease a Model X?

    I certainly did get screwed and am underwater a fair amount, despite placing a hefty down payment. A new model S now has more range and features than my car for less money. Sucks for us, but I am very happy to see the cost of the vehicles becoming more affordable for everyone.

    Low Charge Speeds and Poor Maintenance

    That site is very popular and in constant use. On multiple occasions I have seen them out of service due to people running over them etc. I have not seen 5 of them out though!

    Lost Voice Command with 50.5 Update

    I had a similar issue with voice commands when I updated to 50.1. I had to stop the dash cam and remove the USB then do a reboot. I also realized that the behavior of the voice input button has changed. It used to be that you had to press the button a second time when you were done speaking...

    Wiki Sudden Loss Of Range With 2019.16.x Software

    I have not measured it, but will know soon. At least I am not also suffering from slow charging speed. Well, not yet anyway.

    Wiki Sudden Loss Of Range With 2019.16.x Software

    Thanks Ferrycraigs. If that is true then my 2018 model S is in bad shape as well. We have about 32,000 miles on it and max rated range at 100% is only 233 miles, which was 259 when it was new. Energy capacity method confirms ten percent loss if the buffer is included in the range prediction. I...

    Wiki Sudden Loss Of Range With 2019.16.x Software

    I agree with your assessment. My 1.5 year old 75D has nearly 10% degradation if I follow the instructions as listed. If I add 4 kWh back for the buffer I have only lost about 3%. I have been unwilling to drive past 0 miles to test out the theory!
