    Opinion: FSD, Why you should not buy it.

    An easy fix would be to allow more steering wheel inputs. You can accelerate with no issues in the pedal but you should be able to guide the car thru a turn if need be. Especially with the ping pong issue.

    Be careful the beep alert when close to something does not always work how you think it would

    I just put in a mobile service request before I read this thread. My model 3 is always alerting me to stop because I’m going to hit something and I’ll still have at least 5’ left. My rear bumper keeps saying I’m about to hit my wall and I still have 20’ left.

    Opinion: FSD, Why you should not buy it.

    I bought it only because it jumped from $5000 to $7000 and wasted to lock in a rate before it went up again. I never use the summon feature. I use the auto lane change, and I’ve used parallel parking once, which is a treasure in even my wife’s 2014 Jeep Cherokee. In the month I’ve had it...

    How do I set my car to not auto lock and honk at home?

    I have a garage at home and get home late at night after work sometimes. It’s kind of annoying that when the car is parked in the garage and I walk away, it honks and locks the doors. I want it to do this everywhere else but home. Anybody know how to fix this? I figure with geofencing for...

    PG&E rebate denied. Waiting for CA rebate status (55 day wait). Federal form still not out yet.

    What helped was waiting for an hour and finally getting thru. They accept registration, or the purchase/finance agreement which I uploaded. The rep I talked to had to escalate it and I have to wait to hear back again. If you actually read the application process on the next page, it gives you...

    PG&E rebate denied. Waiting for CA rebate status (55 day wait). Federal form still not out yet.

    So, I'm usually pretty on the ball about applying for rebates. Today was the first response I got from PG&E: VIN was not approved because your application did not include the appropriate vehicle registration documentation. Possible issues may include: No attachment submitted with your...

    Autopilot getting worse

    Wtf is up with rapid braking into fastrak lanes? I get off of 24 to get onto the bay bridge toll and it brakes from 65mph with flow of traffic to 35mph. Insane!!! Also, if someone even starts to creep into my lane it slams on the brakes too. I’m gonna get rear ended one of these days.

    $2500 California Rebate: Forgot to apply (grace period/extension?)

    I don’t have a MVPA....

    $2500 California Rebate: Forgot to apply (grace period/extension?)

    What is the MVPA? I have a loan agreement and lender agreement under my Tesla account but no MVPA. I finally got my Model 3 on 12/31 so I guess I qualify for the $2000?

    How to pay Tesla’s loan?

    Just logged in to ask this same question! Had Tesla match EECU's 1.99% rate. Got approved by Tesla for purchase price and don't know how to set up my autopay now. Loan agreement show's first payment on 2/14 and I got my car on 12/31.

    $1,875 rebate sounds likely

    Oh they're giving it to you guys POST purchase price. I was going to say, if you got $1875 off the price of the car, that's an extra ~$200 off the price of the car just in sales tax alone.

    Wiki Model 3 Order Tracking Spreadsheet

    I love the technology and the creature comforts. My previous car was 15 years old and had outdated navigation and no proximity sensors. I’ve always been a tech dork so I love everything that it offers. However, the charge anxiety is real. It bugs me that I can’t let my car just...sit. I travel...

    Wiki Model 3 Order Tracking Spreadsheet

    Just got a phone call from Tesla. Associate says, “Hello! I’m just calling because I see you’re interested in purchasing a Model 3!” I was like, “Uhhh, I ordered it on Nov 26 and picked it up Tuesday.....”

    How Efficient is Tesla at Processing Title Work?

    Where do I find my registration? Just got the car a few days ago and I can’t apply for any rebates without registration dates and expiration.

    $1,875 rebate sounds likely

    I said this before, but I drove to Fremont without a text telling me to come, and I grabbed my car with my VIN. Just go show up somewhere and see if they’ll give you one. You’re not gonna get anything by waiting for them right now unfortunately.

    No garage door opener?

    The car is super fun to drive but the bugs are driving me nuts. It’s 3 days old and I just found out all these creature comforts like garage door opener are gone, or being able to do things quickly without touching 5 different screens. Also, autopilot seems to be really good at hitting potholes...

    No garage door opener?

    Baby on the way. Wife said, “you don’t need to be going fast for $5000 more.” Now we don’t even have a home link transmitter!!

    No garage door opener?

    Just want to clear this up. I paid $55,000 for a 2020 premium interior model 3 lr awd and it comes with no universal home link? I have to pay $300 to have one installed??

    $1,875 rebate sounds likely

    How comical would it be if people who couldn’t even get the rebate (see single filers who make $175,000/yr) got the rebate but weren’t even qualified to get it.?

    OK, so...did everyone get their cars by the end of 2019?

    I plugged my car in at 120V with the mobile charger to see what I could get. It was going to take 13 hours to charge 17%. I was getting 1kw/h.

    OK, so...did everyone get their cars by the end of 2019?

    Probably why EVGo's are popping up places. $7 last night for 20% charge, which is close to paying for gas.

    OK, so...did everyone get their cars by the end of 2019?

    I got mine. Ordered 11/26. Black/Black LR AWD. Got text on the 30th asking if I would confirm if I'd come on 31st, so I confirmed. It said tentative 8pm pickup on the 31st. Somehow got a hold of an SA on the 31st at 1015am who said my car was getting washed and going into final inspection. Never...

    NY Eve Delivery Event @ the Factory

    According to the woman who had me sign all the paperwork, the dmv computers were down for like 5 hours this morning. This is what caused the full bamboozle. I also just realized I drove off in a brand new car with 0 paperwork that I signed....only temp plates.

    California, The Land That Time Forgot

    Finally got home after a NYE dinner with the wife. I was there with 2 of the other posters (I'm in two of the pics). Everyone was INCREDIBLY helpful. I talked to a service advisor as well and he went over my car with another service advisor too because I had some molding that was off on my roof...

    California, The Land That Time Forgot

    Prepare to go nuts. You’ll wait in a paperwork line for about 40 minutes. During this time, people’s apps are being activated and the whole lot is honking with people trying to find their cars. Volunteers are super friendly though, going thru and explaining to people how to do stuff with their...

    Decided to try and call the Fremont factory. Got bounced to another showroom. An SA was super helpful and pulled up my account. Said my car was off the production line, and waiting to get washed. Now it needs to get inspected, then should hopefully either be sent to the delivery center or I get...

    Bad Experience with Tesla Delivery

    Those dealers make commission. Tesla employees don’t. If I’m gonna make commission on you getting your $100,000 car, I’d pick your ass up at the airport if I’m selling one car a week.
