    2021.40.5.1 For refreshed Model S

    Active Road Noise Reduction as opposed to Active Noise Canceling we were led to believe. Classic bait and switch move from Tesla.

    2021.40.5.1 For refreshed Model S

    Same. 2021 Plaid S. Just updated to 2021.40.6 and no ARNR. Was quite disappointed because release notes online indicated otherwise.

    Model S Refresh Dash Removal/Lift?

    What kind of rattle is it? My plaid makes this annoying ticking noise from the driver side dashboard and the SC couldn’t locate the source even after removing the dash, windshield etc. they told me it would have to be outsourced to a contracted body shop.

    Thank you so much! I forwarded this info to my SC. Hope this is it and this nightmare will be over. This forum ROCKS.

    Refreshed model S Plaid dashboard noise

    Thank you for the info, already discussed buyback and the SC supervisor handling the case says it's highly doubtful given the nature of defect (cabin noise, vehicle still drivable). Lemon law attorney thinks cash settlement at best. Am I screwed here?! This is my first Tesla and the whole...

    Refreshed model S Plaid dashboard noise

    Had the car for a little over 2 months now, 2700 miles in. Been hearing this ticking/creaking noise coming from the driver side dashboard. My local SC took the whole front apart (dashboard, windshield) and can’t seem to locate the source. Now they tell me they have to outsource it to an outside...

    Refreshed Model S - rear seat rattle

    I’ll have to try this also. My plaid S has been making the similar noise that seems to disappear when either the whole seat is down or just the middle arm rest. It sounds like someone’s grinding his/her teeth.

    2021 Model S Post-Delivery Gripes

    My Plaid was just returned to me by my local SC from a week-long repair to address the annoying dashboard noise. No luck, I was told they would have to take the car to an outside body shop and possibly leave the car there for a few weeks! What really irritates me though is the condition of the...

    Accessories for 2021 Refresh Model S Plaid/LR

    Tesla just got back to me with a new quote and said they'd install a brand new OEM spoiler for $1250. Still a lot of money but definitely better than $3000 initial quote!

    Love/Hate the Plaid

    The yoke is fine. I've become accustomed to it after about 500 miles. I do wish they'd put the blinkers on either side though, one of the right and one on the left. It's just more intuitive than having to slide your left thumb up and down. And going from the yoke to a regular steering wheel is...

    Accessories for 2021 Refresh Model S Plaid/LR

    Anyone know where I can find an OEM trunk spoiler for my Plaid? Backed my car into the garage door and the thing came flying off. Tesla wants $3000 for a brand new spoiler and install by mobile service. I just about threw my phone when I heard that. Need help!
