My wife almost hit a deer this morning that jumped out in front of our new Model Y. The automatic braking did not engage. I thought maybe this would be recorded on forward cameras? Or do i have to have a usb drive connected? I thought manual said new model y's have some storage included...

I'm selling brand new factory OEM Model Y 20" Induction wheels+tires+TPMS. I am picking up my brand new (<50 miles) Model Y on Monday (26th). The only miles they'll have on them will be from me driving home from the center, as they are immediately coming off as I'm replacing them with...

I had a 2013 P85 and sold it a few months ago and have a MY on order. Given that i was grandfathered in before, i never paid attention to suoercharger costs. I an seeing reports that tesla jacked these prices up to $0.69 cents. Is this what it costs everywhere? How do i see what it costs at...

208k miles. **Currently inoperable, as it needs HV battery replacement.** FREE SUPERCHARGING. This car is grandfathered in for life with free supercharging, which transfers ownership. This is a big +1. I think its also free connectivity for life, though it does need the LTE upgrade. Both...

ok so when autopilot decides to smash you into a concrete barrior, what do you think the repair cost will be for fixing the exoskeleton body? It’s not like you have replaceable panels here. 100k in labor? Lol. You’d have to disassemble the entire vehicle to replace it. Dent your truck once...

someone posted this on facebook yesterday, and said that according to the app all the superchargers there are down and that the fire itself looked to be 'inside' the supercharging equipment (not the cars). just fyi if anyone goes through there for their commute. guessing they will be offline...

looking for new tire recommendations from folks. I've gone through a bunch already as I've got 185k miles on my RWD 2013 P85. So this isn't my first time tire shopping around for the Tesla...lol. I am thinking of changing things up. I'll describe what I'm looking for, my past experiences with...

well it took 180k miles finally for my front driver side brake pad to get low. its just starting to squeal so I need to replace front disc pads. Its a 2013 P85. the rear pads still look brand new lol. is there anything special about the brake pads for the MS? can I take it anywhere to...

my 2013 p85 with tech package has the xenon headlights but my drivers side one keeps going out. I can turn it back on by turning the headlights off and on again but I have to do this like every few minutes. I don’t think it’s a loose wire. Could be. No idea. But let’s assume it’s not. Is there...

car ate 20 miles over 2 nights parked at train station. Had 35 miles when I parked, came back to 12. Fortunately there's a level 2 charger nearby 1/4 mile but it ate 4 miles getting there. Now I'm sitting here on a 30A/240V trying to charge enough to get to a supercharger that is 15 miles away...

I have a 2013 P85 with the "performance" tan leather seats. Next Gen seats came after I bought. 4 years and 142k miles later, I've always felt that these "original" seats are completely uncomfortable. That being said, I am interesting in purchasing just the driver's side Next Gen in Tan (it's...

this supercharger was down last week. I ended up running out of juice trying to get home (first time in 140k miles) bc this site was down and I did not have enough to make it home. Side note: I can personally vouch for there being absolutely no reserve when you hit 0. In fact, right after it...

I schmelted one very early on back in 2013 on the 1st gen adapters which Tesla replaced, and now last night schmelted another one with the newer gen adapter. different house than before, nothing wrong with electrical here. probably just wasn't seated right. don't care. outlet is fine...

i am looking to buy a single 19" wheel to use as a spare (well really to prolong treads by rotating 5 wheels). Right now winter set is my priority and I kept my 19" original OEMs (the dual spoke alloy ones, not the newer cyclones or slip streams) so I'm looking to buy one more from someone. I...

I haven't been on these forums at all really since the redesign (hate it, wish it was reverted), but I thought i'd come back to post what my suspension looks like after 116k miles given all the recent controversy. (side note, in case anyone's interested, I've have my drive unit replaced 5 times...

not sure if this was photoshopped or legit, but someone on facebook posted that for a while today there were 100kWh and 120kWh Model S configurations posted on the German MS site. not sure if they are still there now. here is the photo that was posted:

check this out Bjørn Nyland on Twitter: look at that one pic look at the location. a mother and child were saved by the Model S. they were driving in the MS on the edge of the road on a cliff above a lake when they were hit by a landslide and a massive tree landed on top of the car...

While my car was in for "annual service" (which they did the wrong one anyway, was supposed to be the bigger 50/100k interval service but the service report shows the 62k service performed so they didnt do things like flush battery coolant etc), but besides that was told over the phone that the...
