A LOT of people had this issue, and many had the "Half Shafts" (front of car) replaced and sometimes people said the problem would reoccur. It was most noticeable when accelerated from low speed of 10-30 mph. The problem seemed to go away when Tesla redesigned and replaced the "Clevis...

yes, assuming the accident is in front of the car. I haven't seen many dash cams with options to see all around the car.

To turn off the Rainbow Road, press the Autopilot stalk again or tap the "X" on the touchscreen.

I'm doubtful anything would be damaged because of a non-working external temperature reading.

Thanks for that info. I forgot to mention it. Wife (who was in that industry for many years) says it also depends on length of time driving (for newer drivers), amount of coverage, coverage options selected, deductible amount, type of car, cost of car, male or female driver (in many cases)...

Nice post. A similar thing happened to me last year on the interstate when a woman was on her phone as accidentally steered into my lane. Tesla avoided it.

OP, you bought the prototype version .05. Be patient. It will fully charge your car in 16.8 years.

I have a curiosity question: Is there an issue with those passes being stolen if they are on the plate outside the car? not familiar with what they are.

Yup! I wonder if the side of the electrician's truck read... "Sparky's Electrical Service, drain cleaning and gardening" :eek:

Nice. One of our 3 Teslas is a 2017 MX. It's been a great car with no issues except for that well known acceleration vibration issue a few years back. After having the new upgraded clevis mount replaced for free a couple years ago, issue hasn't returned.

Welcome. As you may have noticed, lots of smart people here.

The wife says she wonders if you know that there are numerous individual variables that affect rates. There is probably one or more reasons why you are getting double the quote even if from the same insurance company. Comparisons are of no help.

Hmmm, I've not seen this yet. Recently drove from Nevada to Ohio and didn't see that happen.

Might be more reliable to ask Stevie Wonder to mow the lawn. :oops:

Yes that is also me. I replace the battery before the 4-year mark especially since I often take long trips. Just like batteries in my older ICE cars.

Oh and I guess I should ask if your vin starts with "5YJ" ?

As I recall, the announcement was around October 2021, and started shipping refreshed MX with the heat pump in January 2022. Offered as a retrofit in April, and all MX shipped in October 2022.

If it is mine, then 3. Especially if i lived in a big city like LA.

yes and that is probably what commercial businesses are charged 24/7

That is simply TOO SHORT of a distance to judge what your average will be. There are lots of variables as you likely know. Air conditioning, heating, elevation changes, speed, wind, etc.

Deliveries up here in the Reno Sparks area are delayed on a couple models as well.

Hmmmm, in 7 years of ownership, I saw this only one time, and that was when it was snowing so hard, I couldn't see well either.

Good thought but there is no comparison between tire pressures in the software.

yup and he doesn't even want to do a golf cart much less a motorcycle.

On trips, I have it on ALL the time I am on the freeway. I would not want to be without it. The only time I use it on city streets is if there is stop and go traffic. Otherwise never use in on city streets.

how do they get in there?

I would guess another minor glitch in buying a new car and transferring free supercharging is that you will probably be charged for premium connectivity as it won't be transferred if you had it for free on the older car. I'm sure someone will confirm if true or not.

Same here, but EM is trying to tease you and me into buying a newer car to transfer that free supercharging :)

I thought that was the Toyota Corolla. I guess you mean best selling EV?

I should think some other reason. The cameras are better than that.

yes, I guess you mean for the "life" of that car :) With those rates, I'm glad that supercharger credits are based on miles and not money. Us local people can pay 13 cents at home or even less depending on the subscribed program.

Gee whiz. I'm speechless.

The reason I say that is because our new Model Y had some marks somewhat similar on the hood but the rest of the car was fine. It was faint like yours and visible only at certain times. I did a claybar on the whole car because even though the paint was smooth, it was not "slick". Marks went...

Did you try some claybar and water yet?

Hmmm I guess it is all about perspective. I drove for 60 years without such features and on our newest Tesla I don't care if it is there or not. But I'm in the minority.

Same answer.... plugshare

Any time an installer of anywhere quotes building codes, I actually call the building inspector because he/she is the final word. All too often I find that installers use it as an excuse to do something differently.

I hope that what you meant is that the CAR was in the center of the lane, not you. The reason I say this is that my wife was routinely getting these alerts and couldn't figure out why. With me in the passenger seat I could see that she was hugging the right white line. Yup, SHE was in the...

OP, I don't know about how car registration works in your state, but in many states, it is based on the purchase price of the car and slowly depreciates over the years. Out here I never buy things WITH the car that can be added after purchase because it increases the registration fees.

Right, we have LOTS of referral credits and we have noticed the value of things change regularly. Like you say..... recently the wall charger requires about twice the credits that it did a couple months ago when I got a second one.

Glad you said that. I see a lot of people using the word "Deposit" wrongly. "Technically" we lose the $250 whether we buy the car or not because as you say it is not applied toward the purchase. Some other manufacturers like GMC it is actually a deposit applied toward the car purchase.

Can you explain more what you mean about the $500. The buyer never loses the $500 discount if that is what you mean. And referral credits have varying value depending on what you buy with them. EDIT: I should add that the discount also is not always $500. Sometimes it changes to $250 for the...

A great reply..... and I assume the purchaser was NOT already a Tesla customer. Otherwise, referral credits won't be paid although the purchaser still gets a discount.

good. A better solution than burying her in the back yard :oops:

OP, I would not believe anything a Tesla sales rep says about tax advantages. Contact a tax expert.

For a low level charger you could limit the amperage in the car screen, but my opinion is that would be rude to other potential drivers who might need a charge if all of them are in use. Why not just go out and move the car when it is finished charging?

It's a high frequency antenna so that "StarMan" coming back from around the solar system can find it easily. :oops::)

Curious if you have the app running on your smartphone at the time you are doing this?

yes we were thinking the same thing. We drove for decades without blind spot indicators. We never even thought about a blind spot in our new MY. We use the camera display and a slight look to the right as a double check.

Have it on our 2017 MX. Been on vision for quite a long time. Nothing new. I haven't noticed anything different from the previous vision versions.
