Dude you can take your Tesla to the car wash no problem. It’s not going to crash your car. Here in northern cal they are used to it because every fifth car that’s washed is a Tesla, but it’s easy enough. Add to your list folding the side mirrors and your are good to go. Also bring a key card or...

Well, they showed up. After delivery window, and after the appt got wiped from the site. Inspected car very closely, no major issues detected. Only thing I spotted was some hanging upholstery on the back seat per picture. Should be an easy fix.

update: true to form, they blew off today's delivery appointment as well. No call or text - just a no show, and the appointment no longer shows on the page. Clowns.

True enough. Just reporting that this is the worst it's been, and getting worse. I understand that other people's experience may vary, and others may not have much prior higher-end purchase experience to rely on for comparison.

This is the least professional car delivery experience I've had, and that covers the waterfront, from sh*tty cheap cars i bought way back when, to the higher end cars Tesla purports to compete with. From end to end, no one in the process has an understanding of what is happening. Sometimes a...

Also got a text this am saying i could schedule delivery - but the link doesn't work, just takes me to the same account page that hasn't changed. typical. put in a call, we'll see.

Yeah, just got VIN assigned, saw it in the html (it's not "source code"). 103xx, blue/black, LR AWD, no FSD. DAY ONE res, good lord.

ha, day one order with $2500 deposit (i mean, free loan), still no delivery. Get in line :)

Seems to be sentry-related, as earlier poster said. See my post on same topic.

Dunno if this has happened to anyone else, but over the past 5 days, more and more pieces of the car's tech package have fallen off line. First the speed limits, then autopilot, then any lane lines or object detection, and then plain old cruise control. Just drives like a "dumb car" now. On...

i3 is a good car, in some respects, superior to my S and my M3. The range was the biggest problem.

Thanks to both of you. Good news is that the other guy's insurer has accepted responsibility, so now it's just time.

So yesterday a big old box flew off the back of a contractor truck in front of me on 101 and scratched/scuffed the heck out of the paint on the front hood and left side. Anyone in the Bay Area/Peninsula you'd recommend to respray the OEM red for my Model 3? Thanks, Will

This would draw chuckles here in the SF bay area. Every sixth car is a model 3
