I mis-spoke and it was clarified that the tire rotation schedule is for rotation every 5,000 miles with an average life expectancy of 10,000-12,000 miles for the rear tires. This of course is dependent on driving style. It is important to note though so that owners can make sure they...

Got my S back today. We were able to get all issues resolved with no out of pocket cost. We were told that the tires need to be rotated every 3,000 miles and replaced about every 7,000. Too bad we did not know that! The Roadster was a lot of fun, but could not imagine driving one every day. I...

Ours is there too. We had to raise a stink with them when we found out about the issue with the charger because we had been having issues with it since day one only to find out it was built without a second charger. So we requested the Roadster and they were able to come through even though we...

We had the low tire pressure warning a few days ago, thankfully right as we turned onto the street where we live. We pulled into the driveway to see if we could tell where the issue was and immediately noticed one tire was low. Upon further inspection, we realized the tire was worn significantly...

An update for anyone interested. It took 3 weeks to fix the car while we waited on parts from Tesla. Got the car back last week and it looks excellent! By the way, while Chilton had the car, they ended up putting it on a truck and taking it to Tesla so our windshield wipers and charge port could...

Funny! I drive from SJ to San Antonio rd in PA. I love the black car....and the light greay, and the dark grey, and the white..... Do you have the commute stickers? Someone told me I defaced my car putting them on....

I have been seeing quite a few lately too...including a white one going north on 85 near Campbell this weekend and today the replica of mine in black...right near my office in Palo Alto!

We were told to try that as well but it did not work for us. I believe someone at Tesla suggested the credit card (or maybe it was our friend), but at least it works. It is a little frustrating to come home at night and have to pry the charge port open to be able to use it though.

We have had our car since October and absolutely love it. We have had mostly minor issues since we bought the car, other than it was delivered with a non-functioning heater which immediately needed to be replaced. I think the biggest issue we have had is there is not one person or place to...

It is State Farm and Chilton is the shop. They have good reviews online and so far have been very helpful.

An update for anyone interested. My insurance carrier provided an estimate of $2,700 to fix the car. Thankfully the autobody shop Tesla referred us to is an approved vendor with our insurance, and they have already worked on some Teslas. So the car is now with the autobody shop and the bad news...

It is hard to see the damage other than the frunk being slightly ajar. The front bumper has some scraping that you really can't see in the photos. But overall the damage thankfully looks pretty minor. Yes there is ice on the car too. and my hubby's hand prints. And I lost my license plate frame...

I will update here when we get Tesla involved. In terms of the cause of the accident, I believe I came up behind an existing collision and did not realize it. It was in an area I drive every night, so I know the traffic patterns there and the traffic is bad. It slows and cars are switching...

Yes, it is true. I got into a car accident in my two month old car last night. Thankfully, I was not hurt and accident seems to have only caused minor damage. But there is damage. I hit the car in front of me probably at about 20 miles per hour. I believe there was a collision in front of me and...

I have to say my black car looks pretty good! Lol. My husband took me shopping at the outlets today and to see the superchargers there. They work exceptionally well! Suzanne

I believe this is accurate. I have been charging it from 5pm to 6am and get about 30 miles.

1. Our heater is not working. Tesla customer service has been amazing. They logged in to check the issue and now we are waiting for parts to get it fixed. It has been a little cold in the morning and I have no defrost. 2. The visors are way too small....they don't help at all. 3. The charger...

This was mounted on the car when we picked it up at the factory.

- - - Updated - - - Thanks for the update. They recommend charging to 80%? Can you program this using the computer, or is this the "standard" charge mode? I ask since most will probably charge while sleeping or at work with no real way at present to monitor what the charge state is. They...

Thank you! I can't really say how long it would take to build a car. There were many cars in the lot outside the service area (above) and in the factory near the inspection area. The tour guide mentioned that they had cars waiting for missing parts, but I am not sure what parts. I think there...

We got our car today! Res #575, Black & Black, Pano Roof, Signature Picked up the car today at the Fremont Factory. My delivery window ended today. I last spoke to my delivery specialist on Monday, so figured I would call him today to ask what happens next. He called me back and told me the...

I am not going to bug him any more...just checked in yesterday and got my response. At this point, it will either come by Friday or get pushed back. But soon it will be here. I like your daughter's question, very cute.

My delivery window ends Friday 10/12 also, and we have not heard anything either! Our contact says he won't know anything more than a day in advance, but it should be ready soon. I feel a little bit in the dark here....wondering if the delivery date will be extended. #575

DrComputer....our delivery window is 9/28/12-10/12/12 and we have no idea when we will be getting our car. I agree the most frustrating part is not having any notice. I keep hoping it will be within the delivery windwo, but who knows? I don't have any more reassurance about it now than I did a...
