I'm responding to my own comment. Twice they had me set up to replace the bracket and twice they canceled at the last moment. The guy came by a few days ago and put a new bracket. No holes, just two-sided tape. He said that the front plates rarely fall off. I am not so sure. In California it is...

So I had an appointment for Tesla service to replace the housing last week and they canceled about 30 minutes prior saying they did not have the part. I rescheduled for today, 12 noon to 4 PM. At 12:20 PM the driver called and said he did not have the part and will have to reschedule. I think...

I have a 22MS without PPF and last week I noticed the license plate and front housing were gone. It was either stolen or fell off, I will never know. I went to the local Tesla service center and they said that sometimes the housing "just falls off" because they are held on by two-sided tape. And...

I went to Tesla again today and talked to the service writer about preconditioning. I had hoped you could precondition the car for super charging at home without driving the car. That is not the case and you have to drive the car at least 30 minutes or more. Thank you to those that corrected my...

I went to Tesla today and they answered my question. And there is more than one answer. But the easiest way is this: Let's say it's 1 o'clock and you're at home. Go to schedule and set precondition to 1:15 PM. You should be fully preconditioned by 145 or 2pm. In the future I will try this and...

I have the same question. I do not have home charging for my 2022MS. I am one minute from an Electrify America station and 4 miles from a Tesla supercharger.

The app is always connected. I’m not sure how I make the app notify me if the trunk is somehow opened. And I usually turn off the car when I leave it and it automatically locks.

Good question for which I do not have a good answer. I have never heard an alert, but it's possible that I was not by my phone at that time. After I was advised today that the trunk was open I went down to check it and it was open. I checked my phone, and it showed the trunk to be open. I then...

I have a 22 MS that I park in a subterranean parking area. I use my phone or Tesla "credit card" to operate the vehicle. I have never used the key fob. About 5 time the last 5 months I am told my neighbors [and verified by me] that the trunk is open. In each case I have not been near the car or...

You have been very fortunate. I'm in Southern California and the two EA stations I go to have been marginal at best.

For some reason I glossed over your earlier post. Today I went to the service center and they showed me exactly what to do; which is exactly what you suggested earlier. Thanks.

Thank you for your input. Sadly for me, I followed the same steps on my 2022 mid December 2021 build and did not feel any difference.

I'm responding to my own post. As of this date my software still indicates it is current as of 18 August. I am patient.

Clicking the two buttons doesn't always work. For sometime now my software indicated it was current as of 18 August. And this after I turn off the car three times by using the two buttons. Any suggestions? Or does this warrant a visit to the service center?

Thank you both. I have since learned that teslatheater.com is now abettertheater.com. I can now get Tubi and other streaming services. I had a little problem because I was getting sound from my FM radio and iPhone and very little volume from the streaming services. I now know that I need to...
