Will be taking it to the Service Center. @Pinot.Noir its the sliding center arm rest.

Spoke too soon. Just noticed that there's a fairly large gap between the carbon fiber trim to the dash where it meets the center screen. Also, they left the protective plastic under the arm rest which can't be removed without taking out the armrest. Neither is a big deal. I'm posting more for...

Picked up my S 100D at Costa Mesa yesterday. DS said it was the first 100D he had seen delivered. No QC issues other than they forgot to remove the plastic cover under the arm rests.

After four years and daily use of the air suspension, never had a problem. Have a new Model S on the way and have air suspension on order. I think it's very useful in Southern California.

If you click on the battery icon, it gives markers for every 10th percentile of charge. It's easy enough to determine the percentage that way.

I got the annual service since my car needed an alignment anyway. With that said, I don't think there's much value in paying for the service in the first year at least. If you take out the cost of alignment, I feel like I paid $400 for wiper blades and key fob batteries. All other items that...

Definitely prefer the vertical.

Just got my annual service, not prepaid, and the alignment was included. Was specifically told that an alignment is included in the annual service, prepaid or not.

May I ask how you went about getting the Trade-in offer from Tesla (e.g. thru service center, ownership, etc.)?

I really hope that they put one in Primm. LV to Barstow in a 60kwh could be very difficult if the conditions are not right.

Picked up my car today and to my surprise, I got the leather(ette) version. So I guess the service center lied to me but in a good way =) I do like this version much better but still think the cloth version is pretty nice as well.

Dropped off my car today to get the seats. They showed me the seats they're putting in and they're all cloth. Slightly disappointed but just happy I'm able to get the seats. Honestly, they don't look as bad in person...or maybe that's just me rationalizing. Also, the loaner I have (vin 21xxx)...

Had a CLS AMG guzzling 14 mpg and was in the process of searching for a Plug-in Prius. Colleague at work told me about the Model S (he's not even a car guy...just read an article about it). I was aware of the Roadster but never looked into Tesla. That was this past October. Put a deposit in...

The reinforced bumper was standard on all cars up to VINs somewhere through 6000. Mine is lucky enough to be within the range. After that, I think the reinforced bumpers were only installed on cars that ordered the seats during configuration. I believe it holds true for the 2nd row seats...

I've heard from others that it's all cloth now. However, I'm scheduled to get one installed next Tuesday and was told they have the leather(ette) ones. We'll see. I'll update when I have it.

Yeah the whole thing fits: folded stroller, two seats, and the removed back wheels. It's fantastic. I thought I was going to have to buy a different stroller.

I don't question that they have a fix but I do question how effective it will be without vents being installed.

Sorry haven't had time to take pics but you would need to remove both seats, fold the stroller, then remove the rear wheels.

I just tried our City Select Double Stroller and it fit. The only caveat is that you'll need to remove the rear wheels first which is very easy to do.

If you've recent taken delivery with rear seats or had rear seats installed, please share if they were the "leather" version or the new all cloth version. Thanks.

I love my obeche matte. Great feel to it. I fell in love with matte wood dashes when I had my CLS AMG. Had a loaner with carbon fiber and was not a fan. Felt cheap to me.

Not exactly a minor oversight but nevertheless not a big deal. More curious on how that passed QC. So you don't feel too bad, there was a post a while back of a car that came with one front fender with different paint. I believe George Blankenship was made aware and it was fixed immediately...

I give it to them for an imaginative idea (although Tesla should've thought of this as part of the initial design) but the price is ridiculous. I can't wait to laugh at whatever price they place on the center console.

Not sure how to do it but can someone add a poll to see how many owners with the seats are actually able to use them and how many have them but because of the heat/air flow issue is not able to use?

Mike, was it the L.A. service center that installed the seats?

My hood was misaligned as well with the passenger side sticking up noticeably. The Service Center sent it to their body shop and they were able to get it back close to normal but not perfect. They indicated that was the best they could do.

By the way, I am still interested in anyone looking to sell their 3rd row kid's seats in the Southern California area. You can send a PM or email me at [email protected]. Cheers, Lou

I've always been told by the service center that they can get the seats but they don't have a timeline. Looking to get sooner and hopefully cheaper as well. Note that Tesla Headquarters have always said that the seats are only factory installed but obviously for those that have them on their...

Appreciate the input guys. I was at the Costa Mesa Service Center and was told by the Service Advisor that my VIN is able to get the third seats and that they would be able to install it (not free of course) if I can source a seat from another owner. He said removal is only about five bolts...

If you are interested in selling your third row kids seat and is in Southern California, please contact me ([email protected]). The Costa Mesa Service Center says its an easy removal. Cheers, Lou

Have around 5,000 miles on my Model S and just noticed two small interior issues. First, the headliner where it meets the windshield is not tucked under the trim. Over time, I'm sure this will start to fray. Second, the silver trim around the center screen, on the top right side there is a...

Was told by the Costa Mesa service center that they had two new loaner cars that were purchased shortly after they received them.

Todd, don't feed the troll.

Prefer "Night" mode as well. I quit changing every time I got in the car after a week.

Any further updates from folks waiting on their rear seats? It would be good to hear from both those still waiting and those that have recently had them installed. Please include how long you waited or how long you've been waiting.

Glad to hear that. Did they just repaint after fixing the dent? No issues with blending in the paint? I was told by the body shop that they think they can repair it without having to replace but the dent is right on the corner which I would think would be difficult to just repair.

Any update on the cost to repair? Mine backed into last night and has similar damage on the driver's side.

I think we all need to email Ownership Experience. It's not a matter of if but when your car will have wear on the seat posts. Wear started showing on my passenger side only after a few hundred miles.

Picked mine up in mid-Feb and immediately had signs of wear from the passenger side. Driver side is still good since I knew about the issue and have been extremely careful. Unfortunately, with the number of rides I've given, I can't prevent the passenger side from getting worn. Very...

As someone else said earlier, the Tesla grin is slowly turning upside down. Need to step on that "gas" pedal to get it back. Unfortunately, as we keep getting nickel and dimed, I may have to just start sleeping in the car with the foot on the pedal.

Ownership Experience called me yesterday after I sent an email. Was told that there is no vin cutoff. ALL cars delivered and in production, regardless of vin, cannot order the seats. Very disappointed.

Anyone have an update on ordering seats post delivery? I've emailed Ownership Experience and haven't heard anything back.

I applied Skuff as well which gives my black leather a shine even though I used the matte version. It's somewhat noticeable on the front driver/passenger sides because it's more open. The rears are not as noticeable. I don't know how well it works yet though.

ffffffffffffffffffffffff me! I feel like an idiot. Got a curb rash on my front right wheel. Never got a curb rash on my last three cars over 8 years. Tried to be overly cautious with the Tesla but it only takes one distraction. Called the Costa Mesa Service Center and they said they have a...

Anyone have before and after pics of wheels fixed by the service centers?

Now that's what an interior should look like. I would pay an extra $1500 for that console.

I'm going to preface my statement by saying that I love the car. With that said, seat comfort and leather quality is quite subpar for the car. I may be a little biased coming from my CLS AMG. The AMG seats are far and away at another level as far as comfort, quality, and functionality. I do...

Took delivery within my window. Not only that, took delivery 3 days earlier than the scheduled delivery date. 3 months from reservation to delivery. No issues at all with the entire process.

Took delivery on Sunday. Well within my delivery window. Absolutely no issues from reservation to picking up at the Costa Mesa service center. Two things on the due bill: chrome insert on the charger cable and changing the wheel on the display from 19" to 21".

Low on my priority as well. More interested in a solution to the b pillar leather wear.
