    Filed Lemon Law for my Model S Plaid

    Details: "Adaptive ride control system disabled. Drive with caution. Maximum speed has been reduced to 85mph" The car has no active struts and bounces violently when driving. No resolution to the problem after five attempts to repair the car. State Attorney office now involved.

    Filed Lemon Law for my Model S Plaid

    Unreal? Tesla has serious problems coming up. They are selling their next generation cars without educating their service centers how to repair them. Heads up Hertz!!!. I had my Beautiful Model S Plaid for three months and it was in for service six times without a resolution. I now miss my old...

    Plaid Vibration around 38-42MPH....

    After my fourth visit to the TSC, still no resolution to the vibration problem. The service advisor acknowledges the Plaid has a known problem and I was informed the Tesla engineers are working on a solution. I was told "the car is drivable, live with it".

    Plaid Vibration around 38-42MPH....

    Just got my car back from 8 days at service. No resolution. I was told by TSC, this is how the car is made and live with it.

    Supercharging a Plaid

    Wow, this is how the new Plaid charges, 12 miles per hour. Tesla has big problems!

    POLL: vibration felt when slightly accelerating refresh Mode S Plaid or LR

    The best way I can describe the vibration: Just like a lane departure warning from a standard car, but coming out of the pedals at your feet and steering wheel at 42 mph. Same exact frequency of vibration at higher speeds when turning lightly and accelerating lightly. Hard vibration when...

    Local Tesla shop keeps promising they will address the issue, going back again tomorrow.

    Plaid Vibration around 38-42MPH....

    I've brought in my 4 week old Plaid in for the same oscillating issue three time and no fix. Right at 39-44mph. Also at higher speeds if turning slightly. TESLA has a problem. Frustrating!

    3+ hour drive with auto pilot

    Cruising down the Florida Turnpike on cruise control is probably what the "beta" version of our software was programed for? I drove 3+ hours and the software made almost no mistakes with the exception of wanting to "exit out" a few times driving in the right lane. The car steered to follow the...

    10mm Wheel Spacers?

    There is a lot of space on the MS Tesla for spacers. I installed 25mm in the front and 30mm in the back. Totally changed the car. I highly recommend you pay the higher price for quality upon making a decision. You do not want inferior design nor vibration. I purchased my set from Germany and...

    7.0 Updates besides the AP feature

    AP is great, I'm sure it will get better as Tesla will collect massive amounts of drivers' data to feed their AP algorithms. But I must admit I'm equally pleased with some of the other upgrades 7.0 has brought along. The A/C is much colder and appears to run at a bit higher RPM. I ended up...

    Ludicrous for a leased p85d

    Further, you can always try to sell your leased P85D with Ludicrous installed and possibly recover part of your investment before your lease is up. It appears our cars have been holding their value well and there is a good chance the P85D(L) will be worth more than the residual value set forth...
