    Anyone drive 93/95 in New England on Autopilot?

    Live in CT - use autopilot every time I get on I95. Never had any issues. Now the Merritt is a different story altogether :-)

    Auto park doesn't work, TM says to keep parking myself

    Never had issues. Both parallel and perpendicular works every time I want it to. Though sometimes, because you have to pull so far ahead when parallel parking, some one else sneaks into the vacant spot. With the newer versions (x.28.xx), appears that you do not even need to wait for the 'P' to...

    Auto High Beams no longer works well

    Auto high beam back to normal after 2.20.30. About three evenings/nights of driving after the install and the behavior seems to back to what it was before the 2.16.17 update.

    Autopilot lane keeping still not available over 6 months after delivery

    As an owner of my second Tesla - upgraded from a P85 to a P85D - and reading this thread, I'm more worried that some legal beagle doesn't see Tesla as a great class action target. Both from a product and investor relations perspective. That'll certainly delay things a lot more :-( Joe

    Questions for P85 owners who upgraded to the P85D

    I had a Dec 2012 P85. Since I live in the North East, really wanted the four wheel drive - the Autopilot stuff was just gravy. Had all sorts of minor issues with my P85. Nothing with this one. Sound proofing - certainly a big difference in my opinion - especially tire noise (could be the...

    Is anyone interested in Tesla NOT because of any environmental reasons?

    I really like cars that are low maintenance and are really reliable. Used to buy Lexus's in the past primarily for that reason. But after seeing Tesla - assumed that it will be a highly reliable and low maintenance car - didn't see too many things that could break or need constant replacement...

    Early P85D, lots of minor issues, anybody else?

    I've had my P85D for two weeks now. This is my second Tesla - first was a P85, that had some interesting issues early on. But - 'touch wood' - not one thing to complain about with this car. Hopefully stays that way :-) @wayner - my LS430 always had moisture on the window when it rained or was...

    POLL: Have you had to have your 12V battery replaced?

    Once preemptively by Tesla service (after about 6 months of ownership). Last month, because of the Alert message

    Another 12v battery bites the dust

    My car is a Dec 2012 model. Tesla swapped out the 12V battery preemptively in April of 2013. The message to service the 12V battery came on last thursday - called and Tesla could only set it up for this tuesday. Interestingly, they too told me that its better to sit in the garage. The service...

    Slacker coma after an AT&T dead zone.

    Same problem here after 5.12. Also seems to happen during wifi-3g switch if you are trying to select something at that time (I guess the same problem, just a different manifestation).

    Anybody driving 100 miles plus a day??

    Used to drive a Lexus LS430 (actually still have it in the garage!). Almost 25K miles. Got the car in Jan 2013. Drive about 105 miles per day to work (round trip) in NYC. Because of the instant response, really easy to drive in the city :-) Still on the original set of tires - think I need to...

    Model S Loaner Situation

    Was at the White Plains SC last week for an appt made before thanksgiving. No loaner - was offered the Enterprise deal. Really didn't want to spend the time going to the Enterprise office to pick it up. Just had them drop me at the station and then had them drop the car off at home.

    Owners: How often have you take it to Service?

    Have had my car for 10 months now. A few visits to the Service Center - including one where Tesla sent a flatbed (only because they didn't have anyone available to drive it there) Car was delivered with the wrong color seats - needed to be replaced Replaced driver seat had a problem - they found...

    Tesla S - Daily Driver or Second Car?

    Daily driver. About 100 miles round trip to NYC. Great car for NYC traffic - quick acceleration and slowing via regen! Only issue has been E-Z Pass (I use the external one) which somehow stops working after a few months and I need to get a replacement one.

    AM Radio Needs Filter...?

    Have had the same problem. I drive into NYC and once you are in the canyons, AM is out. Tunein/Slacker also don't quite work smoothly in the city. Talked to the SC and they acknowledged the problem, but not working on a solution.

    Parking in NYC

    I use my Model S for commuting to NYC. Initially the manager would not let the other guys touch the car (only he'd park and retrieve it). But over time the guys at the garage caught onto the car pretty easily and have had no problems. They even plug it into a 110V socket at no extra charge -...

    What is Tesla's upcoming 'under your nose' announcement?

    Got my P85 in January. Lots of interesting stories on both the delivery (car showed up a week early when I was at CES), registration and due bill items. But that's for a different post. Also need to thank you all of the very useful info that I've got from here. Anyhow - onto the Superchargers...
