I had very easy to work with SA. Just was very firm in my insistence that the struts had been damaged during my 20 mile drive to the SC as I had been instructed to do by them. Since that episode though I have had multiple other issues with my MX. So far with 3 1/2 years and 40 K miles I have...

Had the dreaded shudder fixed on my 2018 100D MX in August 2019 at about 13,00 miles. Shudder was totally gone at all height settings on acceleration. I've continued to keep it in low setting because the car suspension settings automatically puts it there. I recently changed it to Standard...

I used to use Ultima Tire & Trim Guard for the trim before painting it. Lasts a few months. Here is a link to it on Amazon https://www.amazon.com/Ultima-Lasting-Protectant-Sealant-Applicator/dp/B003BV4PS8

I ended up paying $3750 for it. Done by Sarkis Motors in Huntington Beach. (Sako is the one to contact there. Very easy to work with) I think it is a fair price considering all the labor involved in removing, sanding down the pieces to get rid of the texture, painting and reattaching them. PM...

I know this has been covered before. Finally ended up getting the black plastic trim around the wheel wells, lower door, front and rear bumpers painted body color (Midnight Silver). Not for everyone I know, but I like the look. Here are some pics.

Had the air suspension compressor changed last year and after that the clevis mount for the front end shudder which solved that problem, but was feeling every bump in the road. After a long back and forth with my SC (months) they finally changed out my front air shock units under warranty. Drive...

Have had the yellow border on my MX (6/18 build) for several months now. Hasn’t really bothered me much till yesterday when I tried using the entertainment feature from version 10. Netflix , You Tube, and Hulu all work well except when I tried to exit the screen. Unfortunately the “X” to turn...

Had my clevis mount and front axles both replaced about 2000 miles ago as well. I am wondering if running the suspension in very low vs low is better for preventing the shudder from recurring. I know that the ride quality is softer because of less air.

Had my suspension fixed a month ago with updated clevis mount and half axles. 1000 miles later with no shudder. So far, so good.

Taking my MX in to fix the "Shudder" on 7/31( 100D delivered 6/18, 13 K miles). Had air suspension compressor randomly fail at 12K miles and replaced last month. Noticed acceleration shudder and high speed shimmy after that. Had alignment checked, wheels and tires checked, road force...

Drove to Mammoth (a little over 300 miles) and warning has continued to be on for the past few days, I took out the flash drive and shut off sentry mode because I read on one forum that there may be an issue with sentry mode overloading it and causing the issue. Still there. Have an...

Been driving my MX since replacing air suspension compressor and have noticed a high speed shimmy above 50mph on smooth roads that wasn’t present before. Doesn't get worse at higher speeds. Took it to a local shop and had alignment checked ( OK), wheels checked (not bent), road force balanced...

Update on my Blindpoot warning message: (Running Firmware 20.4.3) Went away for 4 day weekend on July 4th (without my car) and got a call from mobile service tech who said that he was looking at my car remotely but couldn't pull up the warning message anymore. Got back 7/7 and test drove my car...

Just scheduled my mobile service for next week. No feedback yet on what is wrong. Only when I called the support people on the phone noted the blind spot alert on my logs

MX 100D (new 6/18) Had a new warning come on 2 days ago. "Blindspot Detection Limited (Camera visibility reduced)" When I engage autopilot the alert disappears but when I try to make a lane change another alert comes up " Auto Lane Change unavailable (Camera visibility reduced)". Cleaned all...
