    Any Signature Model X owners NOT receive their car yet?

    Stevezzzz, wow, I am truly sorry for you. I know what it was like, waiting for our SigX that was delivered March 28th, as we watched all the production deliveries. I figured we must have been the last Sig, but it looks like you might have that honor. I hope you get your car soon, and I hope...

    X Turning Itself On

    I do have smart preconditioning set to off now, and I think that when I first set it to off, it might not have registered since I had to reboot the screen shortly after. Since the reboot and the smart conditioning set to off, I don't seem to have the issue with the screen and climate coming on...

    X Turning Itself On

    I see this happening prior to opening the door, just looking in the window. It even does it when the keyfob is hundreds of feet away. I was wondering if it could be the smart preconditioning, since both my work and home locations are programmed in, but it even does it with smart...

    X Turning Itself On

    Has anyone seen an issue with their Model X where they come back to find the touchscreen and climate running, even though they had left their car off? Car still seems to be locked. Sometimes, the rear spoiler will have gone back up as well. I've got ENERGY SAVING on, but it doesn't seem to...

    First Glitch - Pass Window Won't Go Up

    I had exactly that happen with our driver's side window. Try using the window button to run it all the way down, hold it there for a few seconds, then try running it back up. On mine, it fixed the problem, and it hasn't happened again since. Ron

    Green Car Reports Article

    Here is the review of our Sig X by David Noland of Green Car Reports. He is obviously more a Model S fan, but overall the article is fair, even if it does not communicate how much we totally love our Model X. 2016 Tesla Model X electric SUV first drive by Model S owner Ron

    Air suspension

    Yes it has GPS location. I use it to raise the suspension to high when we get close to pulling in on our dirt road. Works every time. I have it set to return to LOW whenever speed reaches 50 MPH, so I don't ever have to return it to LOW after leaving. Ron Sig X VIN #484

    Very loud fan noise from frunk area with AC on...

    Our Signature X has not made that noise (yet), but we were at the Fresno superchargers this weekend in 85F weather, and there was another Sig X charging as well. As we were walking across the parking lot, I suddenly heard a very loud fan noise coming from the other X, I'm guessing as he...

    v7.1 (2.15.50)

    I was happy to see that with the new update, you no longer have to hold the button on the second row seats to move them forward / backward. Just touch it once and it moves all the way forward. Ron Sig X VIN #484

    How many people got a "problem-free" Model X?

    We picked up our Signature X VIN #484 in Santa Barbara last Monday, and have put well over 1,000 miles on it since. It has been a fantastic car! Everything works just like it should. We have spent hours, if not days, showing it off to countless people, including a few reporters, and...

    How many people got a "problem-free" Model X?

    We picked up our Signature X in Santa Barbara on Monday, and the car is perfect. We have had no problems with it at all. I even spent hours going over it in detail yesterday for a writer with Green Car Reports. The car has been totally reliable, worry free, and extremely fun to drive. We...

    Any Signature Model X owners NOT receive their car yet?

    We took delivery of Signature VIN #484 today in Santa Barbara. The car is perfect! After so long a wait, we were glad to see no problems at all. We took it for a road trip the rest of the day, opening and closing door scores of times or more, with no problems at all. Also, the Sig red paint...

    Delivery feedback and pics for SC after a week

    We pick up our Sig VIN #484 tomorrow. I'll be looking for similar issues. Thanks for posting this. I think it serves an important function, so that future owners can be aware of these possible issues. I think that I find the seal issues and the rust the most worrisome. Ron SigX VIN #484 (soon)

    Any Signature Model X owners NOT receive their car yet?

    Our Signature is scheduled for delivery this Monday March 28th. Hopefully our car will be flawless. Are we the last Signature to be delivered? Is there some kind of award for the last of the US Sigs? We are actually starting to spot production X's at our local supercharger. Who would have...

    Hazard lights won't stop blinking

    AC Morgan, sorry to hear about all your problems. Since we are picking up our Signature X Monday at the Santa Barbara SC, it certainly makes me worry about the rush to get them out for the end of the quarter. Hope they get everything fixed, and hope you have a great Easter trip in your new X...
