    What Would Compel You To Upgrade to a Future Model X?

    Yep, and then the motor fights you to open them. It's a delight. They really thought it through.

    What Would Compel You To Upgrade to a Future Model X?

    Keep in mind that there are no auto front doors since Tesla removed the sensors 1.5 years ago.

    Front doors that work instead of electric motors that exist just to fight you.

    Road assistance, not honored

    They had no loaners, plus I did not even need the rental car at first since we have another vehicle. But due to a work trip, we needed the rental car a week after the Tesla was towed to service (for the 2nd time), so they booked one from the local Enterprise. A week later, Enterprise called and...

    Road assistance, not honored

    This sounds somewhat similar to my MX lemon situation a year ago when I had to sue them in small claims to get reimbursed as the service manager refused to pay for the rental car that Tesla provided to me when my MX was in service. I literally got a phone call from Enterprise about a week after...

    Model X door no longer open fully automatically without USS (ultra-sonic sensors)?

    I had 3 Model S's with roof racks...and putting those on and taking them off was such a pain (which I did not do often, but would occasionally remove them). I just put the roof rack on the R1S...and it took me 3 minutes without even looking at the instructions. They are designed so well. I was...

    Model X door no longer open fully automatically without USS (ultra-sonic sensors)?

    I still own an absolute ton of TSLA, so I am gonna say yes. 😂

    Model X door no longer open fully automatically without USS (ultra-sonic sensors)?

    Having owned way too many cars including 4 Teslas, switching to an R1S was the best car decision I have ever made. It has every stalk a car should have. The non-opening doors with a motor that would fight you but never help you on the X was the single most annoying thing I have experienced on a...

    What happens if the GPS fails? Here's what I've experienced.

    Possibly two USB drives...one for the cameras and one for music.

    What happens if the GPS fails? Here's what I've experienced.

    Good question....I honestly don't remember, but Tesla did not repair/replace anything. I believe it rectified itself after a while, but it happened for something like a week from what I remember Restarting the main screen did nothing to fix it too.

    Does anyone have the Rivian suv?

    Yep. It was the quick veer back when the after the lane merged back in that would make vehicles in the lane left of you think that you were moving into them too. How that could not be programmed correctly years after autopilot (and eventually FSD) was released made me question its abilities.

    Does anyone have the Rivian suv?

    Exactly. If they stopped expanding for the R2, etc, their costs per vehicle would plummet from where they currently are.

    Lemon law buyback successes without having opted out of arbitration?

    Yep, I did not know at the time that the service records would disappear from the app. To be honest, the service records my attorney managed to obtain were pretty abysmal anyways. Some showed the car arriving in service weeks after it was towed to the service center and then had no record of any...

    Lemon law buyback successes without having opted out of arbitration?

    I did not opt out, and actually tried Tesla's arbitrator at the beginning, but Tesla lied to the arbitrator regarding the amount of time spent at service, number of tows, and refused to release service records, so the arbitrator told me that getting legal counsel would be the best way of...
