    Tesla autopilot free over the air autopilot trials

    So this morning I find via message on my screen that my 14 day trial has started. Coincidently I made the wifi connection with my car yesterday evening. Provided that AEP is as great as everyone who has it says, I will be buying at the end of the trial.

    Tesla autopilot free over the air autopilot trials

    So I updated to 2018.28.1 about 1.5 weeks ago, but still haven't been offered a free trial of autopilot. I want to buy AEP and the money is in my checking account, but if I get a free trial I'd rather wait until that comes through. Is it a staggered rollout over a period of months?

    Model 3 Software Updates

    Am I the only one still on 2018.18.13? Picked up the car on June 12th and no software update yet.

    I took delivery of my 3 in June - Now I want to add EAP

    Has anyone added EAP after delivery? How do I do this? Do I need to take my car into a sevice center? Thanks in advance!

    The screen went blank/black, how do I bring it back/reboot?

    Thanks for the responses. Now I know how to reboot the interface if necessary. The display has worked normally for me after that one discrepancy. I did not need to reboot.

    The screen went blank/black, how do I bring it back/reboot?

    When I went into the car to open the charge port door, the screen suddenly went blank. I was able to open the charge port door using my iPhone, but now I'm wondering if the screen will still be blank/black tomorrow morning? If it is, I guess I should reboot the system, but I've never done it...

    Is a 270 mile interstate leg feasible from a 100% charge?

    Stop for lunch somewhere there is a J-1772 receptacle and pick up 25-30 miles during the hour long break. No need to beat yourself and your kidneys up with long nonstop legs.

    Model 3 Already Has WiFi Support

    I guess that explains it. I have 2018.18.13 which I presume is an earlier version. Will the latest version download via LTE so that I can install it? My car was manufactured on May 20th and I took delivery on June 12th. When did 2018.24.1 come out?

    Model 3 Already Has WiFi Support

    Should I be able to connect my Model 3 to my home WiFi router? The digital owners manual is confusing - at the beginning of the WiFi section it says “Note: WiFi is not yet available”, but then later it says that I should always leave WiFi enabled. I press the LTE button to start the scan but...

    Getting car Tuesday, no MVPA agreement yet on Saturday

    As an update, everything is coming together. Tesla added a "make payment now" amount in my Tesla account and this matches up within a couple dollars of the dollar amount I calculated. So I'm comfortable getting a bank check using that dollar amount even though I haven't seen an official...

    Getting car Tuesday, no MVPA agreement yet on Saturday

    How am I supposed to know how much the check should be made out for? I had a generic MVPA in my Tesla account until today, now a "zero-bytes" purchase-agreement.dms file has shown up that is actually 0 bytes. My delivery specialist at Mt. Kisco has not yet contacted me although the ISA in Las...

    What to expect for paperwork and process?

    I'm in a similar situation - scheduled for delivery on Tuesday but no paperwork yet. But…I know about how much the car will be, just unsure of 'fees' and other additional 'small' charges. So if I don't get the paperwork in time, I'll take a check for what I think is the correct amount, but...

    Panel mismatch

    This is a self-reinforcing issue. I've purchased may 10 or so new vehicles in my life. I've never went over them with a fine tooth comb before taking delivery. I never would have noticed minor paint splotches, panel gaps, scratches in tail light lens, wrinkled seats, etc. What I was...

    VIN Assignment

    I was also surprised to get an e-mail from Tesla today (Memorial Day) with a delivery date of June 12th. I was one who got the 'push back to July' delay email, so I was not expecting delivery this early. Reserved: 3/31/2016 online Invite to Configure: 4/13/2108 Ordered: 4/14/2108 Scheduled...

    What additional adapters to buy?

    Does the car come with the J-1772 adapter?

    VIN # 2284x is going to be delivered on June 2, what about 2281x?

    In the larger view, I think it's clear they are not in sequence. But in a more granular sense, where there's a new block of identical cars (for example, all red, aero, USA cars with VINs from 22800 to 22870), I think it is likely that the VINs may be produced in sequence. I hope this is the...

    VIN # 2284x is going to be delivered on June 2, what about 2281x?

    So, in the spreadsheet there is a Model 3 identical to mine that (let's say) has VIN 2284x and it has a delivery date on the west coast of (let's say) June 2nd. Now my VIN is (let's say) 2281x. Does this imply that my car is already assembled? And will soon be shipped to the east coast? I...

    Upstate / Western New York Delivery

    CdgaBill, I live in Bloomfield (just down the road) and I got a call today from my ISA who talked me out of home delivery. They will provide an Enterprise car rental and 1 night hotel if you pick up the vehicle at Mt. Kisco. I also understand that to take advantage of the $2000 New York...

    VIN Assignment

    leocar said: ↑ If you're on the east coast and feeling down because of the the delayed until July email, know that it may not be very accurate. I also received it yesterday but then today I was contacted by email with a VIN and indicated mid-June delivery. I'm in NYC. Ordered: 3/31/16 online...

    Push back email - JUNE / JULY Configs

    Push back email - JUNE / JULY Configs

    I configured on 4/14 and was pushed into July. I wanted early June delivery because I have a week long family reunion in mid-lune and I wanted to let my large family (7 siblings + inlays) all have a chance to drive the Model 3. They all purchased Prius after I got mine in 2005 and gave it the...

    Order estimate pushed back

    I just received the note as well. Invited on April 13th, ordered on the 14th. No VIN yet. "In our last round of invitations to Model 3 reservation holders, we received an unusually high volume of orders. As a result, we now expect your car to be ready in July. In the meantime, we recommend...

    Today was supposed to be an amazing day for me

    This isn't the first time that Tesla has used the "The Transporter has dropped your car" excuse. Either there are a lot of clumsy transporters out there or Tesla isn't being 100% honest.

    VIN Assignment

    So after reading about NoTDI's recinded VIN experience, and now that I have the same issue, I wonder how common this is. I wonder if my VIN was taken back because some other person complained more loudly about their delay and was given it just to placate him/her. Tesla may have thought that I...

    VIN Assignment

    It appeared that I had received my VIN on the 10th of May. It was in my Tesla account for several days, then today when I checked, the VIN was gone - replaced by my reservation number again. I called Tesla - the guy on the phone said that you really don't have a VIN until you are contacted by...

    Is the Model 3 your most expensive car?

    Most expensive car before my Model3 was my new 2012 Nissan Leaf SL for which I paid MSRP (~$37,000). I’m expecting my Model3 VIN in the next day or so (been waiting 3.5 weeks for it).

    It looks like essentially all new invites are Canadian. Also looks like almost all new VINs are Canadian. I used to like Canada and Canadians; now I'm not so sure.

    Upstate / Western New York Delivery

    Hey, I'm from the Rochester area as well (Bloomfield which is south of Rochester), and ordered on April 14th. This is all very interesting about the Mt. Kisco delivery center. When I ordered they said delivery was estimated to be 3 to 6 weeks. Litzy/bcard53, when did you order yours? I was...

    New York State EV Rebate

    I will be getting my Tesla in 3 to 6 weeks and I have now idea how Tesla handles the New York State rebate. The NYS rebate website says that the dealer reduces the price by the amount of the rebate, but on my Tesla Purchase agreement there is no mention of the rebate and the purchase price...
