6 weeks later, I am still unable to get the vehicle's charging port fixed. Keeps getting rescheduled, eventually went for a service appointment. But after leaving the car there, they told me to retrieve my car 5 hours later because they do not have any replacement parts in stock. Next...

I think the center console USB-C ports are data ports. I've also tried connecting the 8bitdo adapter to the USB port in the glovebox (used by Teslacam flash drive) and the car is not able to detect the wireless Xbox controller even though the controller could be paired with 8bitdo (connection...

My M3 has been charging fine using a ClipperCreek J1772 charger using the Tesla J1772 adapter until one night it just stops charging. Whenever the charger is inserted into the charging port, Tesla's screen will show an error saying "Charging equipment fault" and the charger's "charging fault"...

I noticed some chips on the front bumper after washing the car, which has less than 500 miles on it, so I was thinking of getting a PPF for at least the bumper. Drove 3000 more miles and still thinking of getting a PPF. 1. How serious are these (photos attached)? 2. Does it make sense to get a...
