    Tesla Certified Bodyshop Recommendation in the DC Area

    The Tesla Service Center in Owings Mills can do body work. And they can get parts much faster than the body shops.

    Two reports of Teslas on AP hitting stopped vehicles in their lane on the freeway

    Don't mind the ramblings of Dick. He runs his mouth anytime there is a microphone nearby regardless of the topic, relevance, or facts. The driver flat out admitted that he had it on autopilot and was not paying attention while attending to a dog in the back seat. There is no debate or question...

    Collision Avoidance overrode brake press and causing car to veer and hit the curb

    We don't know what your friend actually did or didn't do with his feet and hands as there is no video of his body. What we do know 100%, is that what he described is not possible. He's either confused about the events, which is common. Or misrepresenting the events to feel less like he made a...

    Anyone tint the windshield 50%?

    70% on my windshield. Rayno S9. Even something as light as 70% makes me no longer need sunglasses to drive.

    Vendor SUMA Blind Spot Side Mirrors

    In your video, it shows the defroster terminals on the correct side of the mirror with no extensions needed. But a few weeks ago, nobody could use the defroster because they were on the wrong side. So is the current model you're shipping from your website equipped with the defroster terminals on...

    AP locking onto cars in the other lane and slowing down to their speed

    That's certainly not what is going on. It doesn't work like that. Unless you have some actual evidence, I think you misunderstand how computers work.

    AP locking onto cars in the other lane and slowing down to their speed

    I think I figured what is going on in every circumstance where this has happened. It's because it thinks the lane is ending and I need to merge! i was watching the display in detail and found it was even lighting up target vehicles that were coming up behind me in the next lane. That tells me...

    My 3 goes offline since last Firmware update

    UPDATE: I rebooted the car last Friday, which resolved the problem. No more going offline. And in fact, it is actually going to sleep on the first try nearly every time. Yes, I'm aware. No that doesn't change what I described. With that option checked, TeslaFi will keep the car awake because...

    Window tinting caused "Blindspot Detection Limited" alert

    Well first of all the shop shouldn't have tinted over the windshield's front facing cameras. That should have been cut out of the tint. That's idiotic if they tinted over the cameras. That is going to degrade the camera and photocell performance pretty bad. It's not causing your blindspot...

    Model 3 Weather Radar

    Too much on the screen and too distracting IMO. Plus it's for navigation and would hide the map itself. And also, $$$. All that weather data will consume bandwidth. I won't say anything about the cost of developing the feature or the cost of maintaining the feature, since they spend money on...

    My 3 goes offline since last Firmware update

    I rebooted the car yesterday afternoon (hold the brake and both buttons until the tesla logo appears on the screen). And it did the same thing yesterday evening. We'll see how the rest of today goes.

    AP locking onto cars in the other lane and slowing down to their speed

    I don't think it does need to slow down for vehicles adjacent to you. I'm pretty sure that isn't actually what it is trying to do. It is for some reason detecting that adjacent vehicle as a current or imminent traffic conflict, just like the vehicle in your lane that you're following. I...

    AP locking onto cars in the other lane and slowing down to their speed

    Yes, I'm pretty sure I'm aware of what lane I'm in. In the USA, the left lane is for overtaking. And overtaking in not prohibited in any lane.

    AP locking onto cars in the other lane and slowing down to their speed

    That was my first thought and I've seen it do that when needed. But that's not what the other vehicles are doing. So I'm leaning towards sensor confusion.

    Model 3 with EAP option bought in March 2019: What features should I have

    OK. That is what I originally thought was the case. All the terminology name changes gets me all befuddled. So my plan then is to keep my mouth shut and play dumb, which is what I decided to do the day I took delivery as well. If they figure it out and take it away, I'm ok with that. But...

    Model 3 with EAP option bought in March 2019: What features should I have

    Looking at the Purchase agreement, it doesn't say EAP. It says "Autopilot $3000". So, does that mean what I currently have available to me in the car is correct since that I believe is their new definition of Autopilot? And in theory nothing should be going away. FSD has nothing additional...

    Model 3 with EAP option bought in March 2019: What features should I have

    I bought my Model 3 in March 2019. At the time, EAP was a $3000 options and FSD was an additional $5000 option. I bought EAP. I did not buy FSD. However, it looks like I have everything that was described at the time as an FSD feature. For example, I have NOA with unconfirmed lane changes...

    My 3 goes offline since last Firmware update

    Ah, I also have Reset Idle Timer When Offline unchecked in the sleep settings. So once it thinks the car is offline, I believe TeslaFi stops polling. When that is checked, TeslaFi will keep polling the car, which prevents the car from sleeping.

    AP locking onto cars in the other lane and slowing down to their speed

    I'm sure this has been discussed. But when I search for phantom braking, all I'm finding is stuff about AEB, bridges, shadows, etc. You know how the UI shows the surrounding traffic, and lights up the vehicle it is following or targeting or whatever you want to call it? During the day, that...

    My 3 goes offline since last Firmware update

    Mine is doing the same thing since an update last week. And continues to do it after an update yesterday. Happens whether I'm home on WiFi or parked at work. Always have plenty of LTE and it's on WiFi at home. So this is nothing to do with your WiFi or actual network connection. After I park...
