    2019 Model 3 airbag warning light

    After a recent software update I started getting airbag warning light. I took it in for service and was told it was a hardware issue with the new update. They scheduled me for a future appointment and now they are telling me it's out of warranty and it's going to cost me $1,500 to fix it. After...

    Corded Mobile Connector Vs Gen 2 Mobile Connector Bundle

    I noticed today that my charge efficiency went from 92-95% to 97.7%. It does have a thicker cable going to the car.

    Corded Mobile Connector Vs Gen 2 Mobile Connector Bundle

    Blindly updated to the $520 Corded Mobile Connector over the Gen 2 Mobile Connector that came with the car that lists for $275 + $35 for the 14-50 adapter. There are no specifications on the Tesla store but here is what I found when I plugged in: The old charger maxed out at 30 mi per hour...

    P3D+ fastest 0-60 for cars under 60K?

    For 90% of the legal driving that I do that metric is far from useless. For example, I'm at a light. I'm in the merge lane and have to get off the line quickly to get in front of the other cars before the merge. Speed limit is 45. I floor it with no tire squeal and no engine noise. I get to 45...

    WOW...Superbowl commercials taking aim at Tesla.

    The only thing the advertisements accomplished was to make Tesla stock go up $129 on Monday. Their advertisements will bring new EV prospects into the showrooms, which will bring them to the Tesla stores at the malls, a much better location, and they will find out for the first time how much...

    Tesla Model 3 Vampire Drain (aka loosing mileage when stationary)

    What I find amazing is that it takes less battery to drive a 4,100 lb car for 5 miles than it does to be parked outside overnight in 78 degree F weather. Or even while it's on the charger overnight it's still using power to keep the car at desired charge.

    Battery usage more than actual miles after update 2019.32.11

    I am having the same issue. I only have 7,500 miles on my car. I use Teslafi. I don't drive my car any different than I did before. It started after the 2019.32 update and has dropped off more with the other updates as well. Monday through Friday I drive my car the same route at the same times...

    Blind spot and relationship to surrounding vehicles shown on display ...

    Tesla better get their communication fixed with their customers when they need service. I like where the future is taking us with service but getting there is a rough ride.

    Tesla (the company) killing itself slowly?

    I received my car a month ago and love it more than any other car, but when I was supposed to take delivery there was a broken rear glass and I was not allowed to take delivery until fixed. The lack of communication with service was horrible. I was trying to take delivery before July 1 for...

    Tips on how I averaged~190 wh/mi for 17,000 miles (so far...)

    I am getting some higher efficiency drives now but I'm still looking for patterns. I have noticed in the downpours we get in South Florida the efficiency goes down quite a bit. Maybe by the time you add up the extra power used by the headlights, the windshield wipers, possible head winds and...

    Teslas for Females - Practicality vs Fun?

    I love my model 3. USA is Fake news. Big corporation that have other huge corporations advertising with them. Follow the money. How many corporations do more advertising with mainstream media than car manufacturers and dealers? Not many. Tesla does nothing with the old mainstream media. Mostly...

    I get an audible warning and the cars steers itself back in the lane without AP being turned on. Have you checked your Lane Departure Avoidance and Emergency Lane Departure Avoidance settings?

    Blind spot and relationship to surrounding vehicles shown on display ...

    Also new here. I would like to see the cars on the screen with more accuracy for the blind spot. Autopilot senses the car there so why not give us the visualization?

    Tips on how I averaged~190 wh/mi for 17,000 miles (so far...)

    I just took delivery on 6/23/2019. My favorite car of all time. I was getting efficiency from 90 - 105% when I wasn't launching 0-60 but as of 7/1 my efficiency dropped to 80-93% on average.
