    Is the service center nearby? You can drive there and asks for parts.

    Front fender for 2015 model S damage.

    Can't you just buy the sensors from Tesla?

    Recall vs MCU1 upgrade or LTE upgrade

    Unlike @AustinP, my MCU2 upgrade rear camera view is still very dark at night. My software is updated, so I'm not sure what the difference is between mine and @AustinP.

    Recall vs MCU1 upgrade or LTE upgrade

    I upgraded to MCU2 a couple years ago on my 2015 70D. I think it's worth it. Everything works much faster and it makes it much more pleasant to use. You do lose radio and the back up camera is dim at night. I did find that I used the entertainment (Netflix, etc) quite a bit during supercharging...

    rear ended on a two month old car by a driver without drivers license and insurance policy, what are my options?

    Paying $1000 out of pocket sucks, but it is still probably better than paying additional premium to have $0 deductible. I did the comparison a couple years ago for my insurance. It would have cost me additional $300 a year to have $0 deductible vs $1000 deductible. That means I would have to...

    Arbitration buyback

    I had a Lexus taken back on lemon law. At first they denied my request. I hired a lawyer who sent one letter to Toyota, and Toyota agreed to taking the car back without any arguments. They ended paying $2K to my lawyer, who worked on contingency. I think they deny knowing a proportion of people...

    Arbitration buyback

    Does this occur at the same spot on the highway? Mine used to do that in a construction area on the highway where they were expanding lanes. I think the car thought I was on the on ramp or a side street and it would reduce my speed when I was in autopilot.

    My First Tesla and I have questions

    I've had an outdoor NEMA 14-50 connector for over 3 years. No issues. The advantage of the NEMA 14-50 connector is that it could be used for other brands of EVs in the future. I have my insurance through Costco (CONNECT). It was cheaper for me than Tesla insurance. Just renewed for less than...

    First time CPO experience- 2017 Model S P100D- need some advice :)

    I forgot to mention that Tesla paid for a car rental after the debacle with the first car since I had sold my car anticipating the purchase. They also gave me a free annual maintenance credit after the second debacle that I never used since they eliminated annual maintenance soon afterwards.

    First time CPO experience- 2017 Model S P100D- need some advice :)

    I bought a used 2015 Model S from Tesla 2 years ago. I had to put $1000 down. Here is my experience... (1) I picked out a car (they had low-res photos back then) and placed $1000 deposit. I asked to see the car, they said no. I can only see it on delivery. It took them much longer to get the...
