    CA Waiting Room

    Tesla will assign VINs when another person doesn’t fully accept delivery. For example, if another person orders the exact configuration as yours and they don’t take it for whatever reason, it’s then assigned to the next person in the area. In essence, it can suck for those further away from...

    Does adding FSD to your config improve your EDD?

    I’ve heard some chatter about this, I wonder if it’ll work. Let’s have some people try it lol

    February 2022 Ordered and Estimated Delivery Dates

    I ordered CA personalized plates in August 2021 for my 2021 M3 which I plan to trade in or sell private. DMV Live Chat shared they expect for mid-March arrival. That would be 8.5 months of waiting 🥲 It seems like the system has pushed everyone’s EDD for non-FSD. It’s clear Tesla is now...

    February 2022 Ordered and Estimated Delivery Dates

    LR order went from August to September today. My profile is incomplete because I’m still waiting for DMV to deliver my personalized plates that I ordered in August 2021 🙃 Step 3 of the registration is about transferring special plates and I want to make sure that information is entered. Anyone...

    [CA] Personalized Plates

    Hello everyone. I ordered Personalized Plates (Black/Yellow Legacy) on August 1, 2021 and have yet to receive them. In early January 2022, a DMV Live Chat Agent confirmed the creation and assignment and issuance within 6-8 weeks. In early February 2022, another Agent informed that these plates...

    CA Waiting Room

    Add me to the waiting list! OD: 2/26/22 EDD: August 2022 MYLR Blue/White Induction No Tow No FSD When I was filling out the Registration last night, I was surprised to see Part 3/3 for Special License Plate transfer. I didn’t see this part when I ordered a 2021 Model 3 in May 2021. I ordered...

    Matrix Headlights

    I currently own a 2021 M3SR+ and have been considering ordering a 2022 MYLR. Are the LR’s being built and delivered with Matrix Headlights? I know the Performance models are. Thanks!

    February 2022 Ordered and Estimated Delivery Dates

    I live near the Fremont Factory… damn it. I’ve read that Tesla will eventually shift most Model Y production to Giga Texas. I’d be sad waiting 5 months just to receive the Fremont version with 2170 🥲

    February 2022 Ordered and Estimated Delivery Dates

    Do y’all think MYLR orders delivered in August will have the 4680 structural packs?

    Tesla sales rep said MY with 4680 will NOT have longer range

    Sales Advisors know nothing about the future features of the cars. If you recall Battery Day, 4680 batteries is an advancement to 2170 batteries (obviously), their significant highlights was 5x Energy, +16% Range, and 6x Power. So as time goes on, we’ll see come to reality. There’s no way that...

    2021 M3 -> 2022 MY

    Hello y’all! Feels nice to be back again on TMC. In May 2021, I ordered a M3 SR+ and have enjoyed the new Tesla experience for the first time. After experiencing colder weather in the SF Bay Area during winter, I started to notice that the decreases Range wasn’t ideal. Now, I’ve been...

    Delivery / Service Issues (panel gaps, delivery delays / issues / Service problems etc)

    End of June 2021 delivery and the Fremont Service Center diagnosed this issue just a few days ago and the technician notated that this glovebox alignment was “within Tesla specifications.” A little annoying that it isn’t flush to the center console.

    2021 Third Brake Light Leakage

    The SC recently replaced the rear windshield due to a stress crack. I didn’t notice until tonight, but when the third brake light illuminates, I can see it partially to the left and right in the rear view mirror. Is this normal? Anyone else with a 2021 see the light illumination?

    3G Connectivity

    My Premium Connectivity 30-day trial expired two weeks ago and I haven’t found a compelling reason yet to subscribe. I noticed today 3G Connectivity in areas where I’ve seen LTE. Is this normal that Standard Connectivity is only 3G?

    Where is the best place to purchase/replace/align tires on a Model 3?

    Took delivery 2 weeks ago and discovered 37 PSI for my driver front tire last night and of course I found a screw near the middle of the tread. I’m literally cursed since this is my third new car in 5 years and I seem to get nails/screws all the time 🙃 I arrived to the Fremont SC and the...

    Range Loss Over Time, What Can Be Expected, Efficiency, How to Maintain Battery Health

    I know I know, this has been the longest debate of them all. However, after many days of finding and reviewing as much research and articles, it has come down to what’s best for daily charging. In y’all’s experiences, do you charge to 80% or 90%? Any additional advice? Using the standard Level...

    Delivery / Service Issues (panel gaps, delivery delays / issues / Service problems etc)

    Accepted delivery on June 29th and scheduled a SC appointment in Fremont for the following: • Driver side rear door handle and passenger side front door handle not flush / sunken in • Driver side rear bumper panel gap with white compound residue (Tesla friend said this is a known Factory issue)...

    Range Loss Over Time, What Can Be Expected, Efficiency, How to Maintain Battery Health

    I received delivery of my new Model 3 SR+ this past Tuesday and has observed two things: 1. When connecting to a Supercharger, the charger moves slightly to the right as if the heavy weight of the cable pulls it in that direction. The "resting position" of the charger is ever-so slightly...

    SR/SR+ (Model 3 RWD) Waiting Room

    I spoke with the Fremont Delivery Center and confirmed that the Delivery Specialist would notify - the employee said, "Yes, a phone call or text will happen when the car is on the way." However, my gut feeling was divided that it may or may not happen. Since I have a trade in, hopefully they do...

    Bay Area peeps - it seems like home delivery is the default despite selecting pickup. Has anyone reached out to the Delivery Team and they allowed pickup instead?

    Model 3 - LR AWD Waiting Room

    I'm from the SR+ group, but was curious about your EDD the last few days. Mine held steady with June 25-30 then two days ago it changed to July 7-27 and today it's July 10-30... I'm about to throw in the towel and just be done with checking lol But, there's a small part of hope that the website...

    Model 3 - LR AWD Waiting Room

    Interestingly, the two SA’s have been more helpful than any other SA I’ve talked to along this journey both (at different times) shared that their internal forecasting tool estimated production date in line with website EDD. My experience has been being stuck between a rock and a hard place. I...

    SR/SR+ (Model 3 RWD) Waiting Room

    This would be a nail in Tesla’s logistics coffin. If true, this would be absolute disrespect to all of us that ordered April and May. Granted, I don’t know what Model this person ordered (Model S Plaid?), but the fact that this is a possibility and my EDD is now 10-13 weeks from order date when...

    SR/SR+ (Model 3 RWD) Waiting Room

    Much appreciated. It seems NorCal suffers the worst when it comes to deliveries since we’re last. You’d think it’d be smoother since Fremont is closer, but likely not at all. Update for y’all: I called Santana Row Showroom and the SA (woman) was super nice, very attentive. She said most SA’s...

    SR/SR+ (Model 3 RWD) Waiting Room

    My original EDD was 6-8 weeks from May 4 - this would put me between June 15-June 29. It fluctuated throughout the last 8 weeks just like everyone else and the lack of clarity leaves me in an unknown spot. EDD a few weeks ago entered into the July ranges and was told two different things from...

    SR/SR+ (Model 3 RWD) Waiting Room

    Wholeheartedly I know that I'm going to love the car. But this delivery experience is going to be a long-term stain for Tesla. Even through unprecedented demand, how you make people feel lasts forever. Customers will have many choices in the coming years, so it all eventually comes back around...

    SR/SR+ (Model 3 RWD) Waiting Room

    Based on this thread and Reddit, I feel left out from this text. EDD has been June 25-30 for the last week and no update text?? No point to reach out to my SA since he hasn’t replied in weeks and all I would get is “I don’t know, we’ll need to wait for a VIN” 🙄

    SR/SR+ (Model 3 RWD) Waiting Room

    I just logged in and EDD is now June 25 - June 30 😭 This is the narrowest range ever. It’s been July 2 - July 22 for over a week. Manifesting it stays this way and I take delivery soon!!

    Model 3 - LR AWD Waiting Room

    Since Tesla’s logistics appears to be based on geographical locations let’s gather the West Coast gang here. Based on the pinned Waiting Room threads, Bay Area, SoCal, Washington, and Vegas are where a lot of us still await deliveries. As they say, misery loves company 😅

    SR/SR+ (Model 3 RWD) Waiting Room

    1. Insurance depends on the state, but typically you’ll need a policy with the VIN to take delivery. This can wait until a VIN assignment 2. There’s been debate about when to apply for financing. After my friend (SA) showed me the internal system, my profile’s submission/completion date was the...

    SR/SR+ (Model 3 RWD) Waiting Room

    I just spoke with a SA from Santana Row and she said to email [email protected] to ensure my account reflects accurate payoff information. I'm surprised that during final documents Tesla doesn't automatically pull this directly from the credit union. It's like, yeah make me, the customer...
  39. E

    SR/SR+ (Model 3 RWD) Waiting Room

    Yeah, I've had positive equity this entire time. The Lien Payoff Amount didn't change with the new trade-in offer. So my question is, since this payoff amount is now lower since I made a car payment, will this be calculated during the final documents? My account is not currently accurate.

    SR/SR+ (Model 3 RWD) Waiting Room

    Since my SA hasn't replied and no Showroom in the area is answering the phone... Trade In question: I accepted an initial offer on May 9th which expired on June 10th. I accepted the updated offer on June 11th, but my account still shows the "Lien Payoff Amount" is the same as last month. I made...

    SR/SR+ (Model 3 RWD) Waiting Room

    Factory output is at its peak it seems. Due to microcontroller shortage and the containment hold, it only made deliveries delayed this quarter. I guess patience really is a virtue. It’s possible that our deliveries will arrive sooner, it’ll be worth it.

    SR/SR+ (Model 3 RWD) Waiting Room

    Finally spoke with my friend today who’s a SA and he was able to share a bit more insight. My order is “soft-matched” which only means for a future build. The projected factory production and delivery was actually within the EDD shown in my account. However, these dates change daily and he’s...

    For Trade In, is there a set amount of miles? I couldn’t find any info on the website or fine print that the value would need to be reevaluated. I just see it’s valid for 30 days.

    SR/SR+ (Model 3 RWD) Waiting Room

    For those have recently received delivery, are the taillights the same or updated to Model Y design? Curious to know if the turn signal is still red or now amber.
