    Are Service Centers Competent?

    imagine how much better the tesla experience would be if he (or someone in charge) concentrated on the areas that need improvement. they just ignore them. what are they doing, in advance, to ensure that parts are always available and that service centers have enough cap to support the...

    convince me that elon is an engineer, at heart

    I hear, time and time again, how much of a 'genius' elon is. and how he has a good handle on technical issues. can someone help me understand why people believe this? I'd like to see some examples of HIS designs, or HIS implementation. by himself or in a very small group where he was the...

    clicking on driver side/front during very slow full-wheel-turns

    I'm going to take my 3 into service today, but wonder if I can see if this problem has been reported (and solved?) before. when entering a parking spot and slowly turning the wheel (close to the extreme lock position, but not AT that lock position, just a little slack left) there is a...

    Discussion: should L2 (and above) cars have a visual indicator for others to see?

    I'd like to have a discussion about the pros and cons of having some kind of visual indicator on the car that tells other drivers around you that you are in 'more than human' mode (L2 level or higher). while we are in the transition period where we have a mix of human-controlled vehicles and...

    stock michelin tires follow ruts in road TOO much?

    anyone else having this issue? some pavement gap in the road (longitudal, in the direction you are traveling, like a gap between lanes on a highway) aligns with the tire tread in a very bad way; it yanks the wheel and you get a sudden direction change (which the driver will naturally compensate...
