Early Model Y here. Thanks for this thread. My SW version is not even close, but now I will wait for update, or if I need to go to the SC have it looked at then. The bad part is that my sentry doesn't work either. 2 finger reset brings it back for awhile. Sigh...

Recently my car length setting in cruise control changed. This was no doubt due to pilot error ;). However, when I looked at the autopilot settings, the ability to set the car length was no longer available. A timely you tube video told me how I could change it. My annoyance is that you have to...

In the SGIP manual, paragraph 7 says that the Program Administrator (PA), PG&E in my case, will have the data provided by a Performance Data Provider (PDP). Tesla is an approved PDP. The difficulty is that the SGIP manual also says that the system owner (me) will contract with the PDP. So I am...

Since you are not in Norcal, I don't think it would help. You should ask your solar installer if you could talk with the appropriate rep for your area.

Yes, I wanted to work with a local Santa Cruz, CA company that was certified for the Self-Generation Incentive Program.

Well things certainly can change. I spoke to the Tesla Energy rep. on June 22, 2021. He said it would likely be late September or the end of the year at worst for delivery. Not a week later, my solar contractor said they had received some Powerwalls, and I would be having my 3 installed this...

Well a sales rep actually did contact me today. There is a chip shortage with the inverter chips that go into the powerwalls. So powerwalls each have an inverter chip. Meaning the Tesla gateway does not act as an inverter. Interesting. They have two sources for these chips and BOTH are...

My solar contractor said Tesla "Senior Management" will be contacting me directly in the next couple of weeks to explain their delays. I will report back here what I learn.

I have a SGIP contract with a 3rd party. No powerwalls for the last 9 months. I was told yesterday that there is now a chip shortage. My concerns are that I have until October to complete the SGIP process to get the rebate. I have asked the installer if that date can be extended due to...

Update: I drove to the Service Center, explained my dilemma, and they made an appointment for me tomorrow. So it seems that going in person is the best way!

It is not making an appointment, it is returning the wheel within 3 business days, unless mutually agreed upon. If I could actually talk to someone at tesla, or if they would even respond to my texts or emails, then we could be assured I would not be charged for the wheel

So, I had a flat tire after my 800 mile journey from Santa Cruz, CA to Kirkland, WA. They have quickly given my a loaner tire. I then dutifully made an appointment for a tire swap. Earliest appointment was 3 weeks out. Now Tesla says in the tire loan agreement that I need to make an...

I just received a similar notice from my installer yesterday. Started a thread specific to this.

I am very early in a project to provide powerwalls for the Self-Generation Incentive Program (SGIP) here in Northern CA. My installer called me last night and said Tesla had called to inform them that there would be a significant delay in ordering powerwalls. Has anyone else received similar...

I have also just entered into a contract for 3 powerwalls. I am a High Resiliency candidate. I chose a local installer as they manage the entire project and are most familiar with local code requirements. They are also a certified installer. Interestingly, they are using a subcontractor...
