Had the same problem for two days... rebooted my phone, problem solved. Give it a try.

This week, I got my Model Y back from the body shop. My car was hit by a woman coming out of a commercial shopping center driveway. You can see her car just pulling out, as I'm driving in the center lane, far from her. She pulls out and straight into the passanger side of my 4 month old Model...

Interesting that you aren't finding it consistent. I don't have a key fob, so I only open my frunk using either the large screen in the car, or my phone app. I generally close the funk using the light/button combo inside the frunk, if I'm outside, or the screen if I"m inside of the car...

Thought I'd share this, in case it may help others.... I was looking for an alternative to the flash drive that comes with the Tesla. I simply wanted something more reliable, that wouldn't glitch out at inopportune times, and that was designed for more read/write operations then a standard...

I like that it looks OEM, but just not something I've missed.

Hard to blame AP for that. I doubt most people would be able to avoid that brick in the middle of the road, going at high speeds. I do find auto pilot is a little slow to accelerate, when I'm driving at, say,, 55 mph and the car in front of me changes lanes, opening my lane up and AP is set to...

Just wondering, from those that have been using Covercraft... do you have any issues with it scratching up the dash?

Really glad to hear this, as I'm waiting for a Sandisk High Endurance microSD card to be delivered today, along with the Sandisk MobileMate reader. Can I simply insert them into the glovebox USB and have the Tesla format, or do I need to pre-format it to Fat32 or something else? Thanks!

Yeah... not so sure about this. When the tax credit for Tesla was about to expire, and was cut in half, from $7,500 to $3,750 in 2019, Tesla reduced the price on its Model 3, Model S, and Model X by $2,000. I believe other manufactures of EV's are playing the same game... THEY take the tax...

Tesla seems to have reduced the cost to upgrade from a Model Y LR to a Model Y Performance. When I purchased mine, ordered in November '21, there was a $5,000 cost to upgrade. Now I see Tesla has reduced the cost to $4,000. Frankly... for UberTurbine wheels, matrix headlights, painted brakes...

Nope. I have the Tesla wall charger at home, which charges my Model Y (and my son's Model 3) at around 25 miles/hour, so overnight, either car will go from 25- 30% to full. We never return home with less than 30% charge. When I take longer drives, I simply stop at a Tesla Supercharger...

That's great! When I ordered my Y back in November, the next day they raised the price $1,000. Eight days later, they raised it ANOTHER $1,000. By the time I had taken delivery, I believe it had gone up $5,000! Congrats! You're really going to enjoy the car!

Here's the real (fake) leather trash cans which go behind your seat and clips on to the storage compartment in the back. Carwiner Trash Bag It comes with plastic trash bags which clip on inside this leather trash bag, holding it open so you can easily reach around from the drivers seat, open...

You said you plan to keep your car for 10 years. I'm biased, as I have a Blue/White Model Y, but if you get the black version, I'd think every time you see a blue Model Y, you'll wonder if you shouldn't have waited. It's two months, you save money and you'll end up with the color you honestly...
