I came here this morning to post this exact question!!! Yesterday we were driving on a road that we drive *daily* and the auto pilot almost killed us (ok dramatic yes, but from inside the car that's exactly what it felt like). when it was engaged it violently swerved, to the point it made our...

Well, at least I don't feel as stupid looking for something that can't be found lol. Thank you for the quick replies.

Ok after a few months of owning the car, and admitting its not my daily car, its my wife's, I have no idea how to tune the damn radio to an AM station. Yes ... some of us still want to hear talk radio (or sports!) and I have been unable to figure this out. So once your done laughing or...

Thank you. The hotel we are staying at has EV and is part of the valet service. Right now I'm planning on taking the advice from comments on this thread and will make 2-3 stops. This is a drive I make *a lot* and even before owning Tesla I was aware of the charging infrastructure along I-5...

Thank you - the real word input is much appreciated. The comment about making a couple of stops and "shorter" charging time instead of a longer single stop is exactly what I was looking for...I would never have viewed it in that context. Thanks all!

Hi - so every year I take my daughter to Disneyland and this year she's telling me "its Tesla or not going!" :) I have an '18 Model 3 LR AWD and will be driving from the Sacramento area to Anaheim (about 440 miles). I have used the site "a better routeplanner" and its pretty interesting. I'm...

Hi - is there a bug or some other 'trick' for ensuring that creep mode (to simulate traditional automatic transmission behavior in D/R) stays "enabled"? I have had to set this every time I get in the car.

thank you cypho! i've been watching all the tesla videos in my account but didn't get into the manual :)

Hi - I'm looking for a setting that basically moves the driver seat all the way back when the driver door is opened, along with the steering wheel retracting. is this possible? thanks.

Thank you for the replies and answers. Is the FSD a significant improvement from the "Autopilot/autosteer"? I wouldn't upgrade because of the summons, but I am interested in upgrading to the FSD. I have been following Tesla for a bit before making a purchase (we had a deposit on a 3 back in...

Hi - this is only day two of owning the 2018 LR AWD we just bought. It is on software version '10' and in fact we just today upgraded to whatever the most recent version available is called. We do not have "Enhanced Autopilot" however we are open to upgrading to it. Anyway the point is, I...

We just brought home our 2018 LR AWD Model 3 yesterday (purchased through Tesla). While waiting to take delivery of the car we had a Tesla wall connector installed. I purchased the 8' cord unit. Anyone guess what I'm about to ask? :) So is there any option/fix to swapping out the 8' cord for...

Just to add some context... The car is in Hayward CA. The delivery center is in Fremont, CA. We are talking a very short distance from those two locations...I am near Sacramento CA. In other words if this Tesla was for sale at a dealer in Hayward/Fremont, I could in less than 2 hours be at...

Thank you - and the pics posted which include the cluster still display "60". Maybe they don't actually do the 'unlock' until vehicle delivery. But for sure will check. Thank you for the feedback!

Hi all - I buy a *lot* of cars and trucks and am very familiar with the traditional method and all the frustration, games and at times, out right lying, involved when dealing with car dealers. This is my first transaction with Tesla (well I did have an early deposit on a Model 3 but gave that...
