    Longest time in service?

    I wish that was the case. The first loaner they gave me was an older X which was completely beat to *sugar*. White perforated leather with clanking from the suspension. They tried to give it back to me the second time and told them I needed something newer so they gave me a Model S with the new...

    Longest time in service?

    I had an appointment set for Friday, September 13th in the morning for what was supposed to be a 2 hour job. I actually scheduled it in person because I drove to Paramus after the woman in Brooklyn hung up on me. This was supposed to be my 3rd visit. Upon arrival, was told that they were backed...

    Longest time in service?

    I've found at Tesla tech centers - taking responsibility is not something anyone there wants to do. They're also smart in avoiding taking responsibility - when I told them I would pursue lemon law when I was there Tuesday they then proceed to keep telling me "it's a different issue." I've now...

    Longest time in service?

    I just don't understand, and yes - I tried Paramus (where the car is now). I was using Brooklyn for the first few trips but they kept trying to convince me there were no issues with the car, only because they could not drive it over 40-50mph near them and had no way of even trying to replicate...

    News for Model X owners with the dreaded shudder

    I was told last Friday car was ready Friday, but lead tech had to drive it. Was told Monday would be ready. That turned into Tuesday. Tuesday I pick up the Model X - was told half shafts were replaced as a "just in case." Also, apparently they replaced front passenger wheel and tire. On top of...

    Longest time in service?

    At my wits end with Tesla service. I picked up a brand new 2019 Model X early September. Moment I picked it up I texted the salesperson that there's a vibration in the steering wheel. Was told I would have to book an appointment through application, waited 2 weeks for Tesla techs to try to...

    News for Model X owners with the dreaded shudder

    Is everyone on the forums with this issue only having it with later models - specifically, with the old half shafts? I picked up my 2019 Model X early September. From day 1 it had a shudder in the steering wheel from 70mph+. In some cases, can feel at lower speeds. 1. Car is now at shop for...

    Model S Delivery - Issue Questions

    I don't disagree. The reality is, I live in NYC and as much as I try my best to prevent dings etc the only time I was able to get away with it is with my 2019 Jeep Wrangler Rubicon which is what I traded for the Model S. As long as Tesla documents the issues where I don't get charged, is what it...
