    Help needed please: how to remove centre console on model x

    My card slipped into the top, sliding lid compartment. I was on my way out of town when it happened, and I quickly called the service center. I didn't even need an appointment, and it took them 10 minutes to retrieve.

    Looking for Trip Advice Sea- Portland

    Have you considered the free charging on “Electric Avenue?” Charging is free, compliments of Portland utility, but you do have to pay for parking. There are two J1772 chargers and several CHAdeMO chargers. Electric Avenue 2.0 - Google Search

    Driver's door interior panel separating

    I had this happen to my brand new Model S when I picked it up last November. They snapped it back in place, and it separated again in a few weeks. The second time around, they replaced all the clips, and it's stayed in place since.

    I picked up my car from the Seattle service center today. They performed an "active louvre retrofit," and the groaning noise is now gone!

    grinding noise after plug in

    I have a servicing appointment here in Seattle to address this on 16 February. They had to order replacement parts from Fremont that took a liitle over a month to arrive. I sent them a video of the groaning noise last month, and they knew what to order based on the video I sent.

    grinding noise after plug in

    Hey guys, I think this is a known issue at Tesla, and I have the same issue with my car (delivered 30 November 2016). Check out the YouTube clip below I found that I forwarded over to my service center in Seattle, WA. The replacement part is on order for me, but there are delays in getting the...

    X still stuck in production after 3+ weeks, deeply exasperated

    Argh. I feel your pain. Mine was stuck in production for a few weeks like yours. My DS was able to tell me which stage of "in production" my car was in during the agonizing process. Apparently, they caught some quality-control-related issues, and last month, my DS told me that two weeks was a...

    Wiki Model S Delivery Update

    Finally took delivery yesterday. Not sure what issues were caught during Tesla QA in the factory, but I did note during the delivery process a few QA issues with the car. There was a subtle misalignment with the front bumper that they noted, as well as a scuff at the very bottom of the car. I...

    Wiki Model S Delivery Update

    Hey guys, just a heads up, my car went into production 04 November and finally finished on 23 November. According to my DS, when there are quality control issues spotted, the factory is taking about two weeks to address them. It finally shipped from Fremont, CA to Seattle, WA on 26 November...

    Wiki Model S Delivery Update

    It's agonizing, isn't it? My car went into production 04 November and is STILL in production. My DS said that as of 19 November the car was in the final stage/quality check. Fingers crossed mine ships soon.

    AutoPilot 2 Delivery Thread

    Mine is in production now and this delivery estimate has been visible for quite some time now, even when my car was in production queue. Have you tried emailing your DS? Your DS should be able to give you a more accurate timeframe.

    AutoPilot 2 Delivery Thread

    Here is the a screenshot estimate on My Tesla. When I ordered the car months previously, I specifically asked for the car in early November, so I panicked a little when I saw a potential delivery up to December on My Tesla. I contacted my DS who claimed he had access to slightly more accurate...
