    Model Y Roof rack size 2023 vs 2022

    Does any one know if the 2022 Model Y roof rack and 2023 Model Y roof rack have the same dimensions? And will they fit? I see someone is selling an unopened 2022 version and figured I could save a few hundred bucks.

    Tesla Vision - To buy or not?

    Thanks for all your inputs. I've decided to go forward with my purchase. Reason: I have driven cars without parking sensors or any cameras on them for years. And, I grew up driving in India. I know a thing or two about how close you can get to objects, people, cars, cows etc. WTF am I afraid...

    Tesla Vision - To buy or not?

    The parking in my garage is somewhat tedious. Wife's got a BMX X2, there are bikes and stuff there, too. I do rely on the USS but I have sort of memorized it now. My other concern is the resale value. If Tesla brings this back and jacks up the price of the Y, we are kind of screwed. There are a...

    Tesla Vision - To buy or not?

    Ugh, I am already pretty fickle minded. Now , I think I should just consider a 2022 Model Y instead :(

    Tesla Vision - To buy or not?

    Are there any after market parts that can improve park assist? Its fine if its a third party and I need an extra screen. I am thinking TV should be OK with basic autopilot. For phantom breaking, I've experienced them even in my current M3 (2019).... And it got better over time. Probably would...

    2023 Model Y no USS discussion, incl. Discussion of Tesla Vision Firmware

    My garage is a tight fit. And driving around and parking in Boston is kind of a pain in the ass.

    2023 Model Y no USS discussion, incl. Discussion of Tesla Vision Firmware

    I take delivery of a 2023 Model Y in a few days. This forum makes me think I shouldn't do it! I am also looking at a Tesla Model Y 2022 with 24k miles on it with USS as an alternative. Will they disable the USS anyway and just use vision? What a nightmare. I think I should just move on to Kia or...

    Is hope in sight for our USS-less cars?

    What did you end up doing? I am in the same boat and I am thinking about cancelling my order! Delivery in 3-4 days.

    Tesla Vision - To buy or not?

    Hi All, I have a 2019 Tesla Model 3. I need to upgrade for more space... I have put down the deposit of $250 for 2023 Tesla Model Y and I am scheduled to pick up the car in 3-4 days. I just discovered (unfortunately) there are no more USS. I am late, I know. I have been watching some videos...

    Anybody see major issues after updating to the latest OTA for the Model 3 ?

    Never mind. SC said Rodent damage found on wiring harness. Need to replace the wiring harness. False alarm.

    Anybody see major issues after updating to the latest OTA for the Model 3 ?

    That's weird. My car was probably a sleep when I drove it at 10 am and back for like 30 minutes and then decided to go to the store at around 6 pm.

    Anybody see major issues after updating to the latest OTA for the Model 3 ?

    Sorry, I did not grab the latest version # on the car before it was towed. I wanted to add it in the OP but I am guessing 2020.44.10.1 ?

    Anybody see major issues after updating to the latest OTA for the Model 3 ?

    I updated the software last night. This morning everything looked fine. I drove about 15 miles and returned home. Plugged in my car. Decided to go to the store about eight hours later. Punched in my code The turtle sign with Front motor disabled?? Regenerative breaking disabled. Autobraking...

    Hit a dead deer last night and car is out coolant :(

    After about 43 days, I got my car back. Everything seems to be working great. Me and the wife drove the car to Quebec city and back (from the Boston area - about 700 miles or so. ). I must say, I really missed driving my car...

    Hit a dead deer last night and car is out coolant :(

    The body shop stalled for several days. Until the car was at Tesla I did not have much information. I spoke to somebody at Tesla when it was finally towed over there. They said some portion of the battery was damaged and the hose assembly was totally ripped out. Because of this, there was no...

    Hit a dead deer last night and car is out coolant :(

    I think I do. Because I did have a USB drive plugged in but I didn't retain it when the car was towed. I'm going to retrieve it this week. The claim is comprehensive. My insurance agent said it is not going to be counted as my fault. However, my wife's car and my car have had a claim this...

    Hit a dead deer last night and car is out coolant :(

    Two months? What! That sucks! I hope you have an extra car while going through all of this... The body shop and Tesla said it would be two or three weeks more to complete everything. I am not so sure about this...

    Hit a dead deer last night and car is out coolant :(

    I am hoping this doesn't change my insurance since it is a comprehensive, not my fault claim. I am afraid they will cancel our insurance. My wife had a bumper collision claim.

    Hit a dead deer last night and car is out coolant :(

    I wish this was an option. I think i'd lose a couple of thousand dollars but would be OK. Since Tesla is doing most of the battery stuff, I am sure its going to be fine. Dual motor. The damage is about half the price of the car.

    Hit a dead deer last night and car is out coolant :(

    I don't know if I have that on my insurance. I should add it on , I suppose... Especially for the Model 3. Is the battery really not protected at all? I really did not think my hit was that bad for this much damage.

    Hit a dead deer last night and car is out coolant :(

    OK, I am sorry I have been MIA for a while. But there was a massive update on my car only earlier this week. I won't bore you with details of scheduling problems between the body shop and Tesla. Anyway, It turns out there has been a lot of internal damage (apparently?). The car was towed from...

    Hit a dead deer last night and car is out coolant :(

    I think what they have quoted is based on just looking at the car on the lift and not running any diagnostics. I will have to call them tomorrow.

    Hit a dead deer last night and car is out coolant :(

    I don't know yet. I will call the shop tomorrow when they open and get more details. This is what I got towards the end of the day... Perhaps the battery assembly?

    I got an email towards the end of the day. I will contact the body shop tomorrow for details. They have closed for the day.

    Hit a dead deer last night and car is out coolant :(

    Total cost of parts + labor quoted by the appraisal was $4500 (before deductible). Treated as comprehensive with my insurance.

    Hit a dead deer last night and car is out coolant :(

    Are you referring to this photo? Tesla's support said coolant levels look low (according to the logs they can see on their end). I asked if they mean the battery and he said yes. Front motor definitely took a hit.

    Hit a dead deer last night and car is out coolant :(

    First of all , Thanks everyone for your replies. This is an awesome community. Today has been an awfully busy day and I couldn't really get to my car before dark (no ramps or garage). I am sorry I cannot get any photos. I have decided to get the car towed tomorrow morning to a Tesla certified...

    Hit a dead deer last night and car is out coolant :(

    Yeah, I will. I am waiting for the appraiser to come and see that I hit a deer and do it before they tow it out from my house. When I spoke to a Tesla's service center this morning, they said two things are being reported from the diagnostics. 1. The battery coolant is not full (probably...

    Hit a dead deer last night and car is out coolant :(

    I am unable to get underneath the car to asses any damage. The only thing I can see underneath is some a part of the deer that's still stuck there. I saw puddles and at some point liquid leaking quite fast. However, I can't see the actual damage. The front looks like nothing happened. The side...

    Hit a dead deer last night and car is out coolant :(

    Last night while driving home I hit part of a dead deer on the highway. I swerved as much as I could to avoid it but I still managed to hit some part of the deer. I checked under the car and I see some flesh and blood of the deer in the between the front wheels (right in the center between...
