    Tesla Battery and Nickel Allergy

    My 18 year old gets sinusitis, runny and blocked nose, after a few minutes sitting inside our much loved 2019 Model X. A trip more than an hour becomes unbearable as this can lead to a mild headache also. The symptoms appear to lessen with Bioweapon Defence Mode (the Air Conditioner setting)...
