    Superchargers needed at the N.C. beaches

    I also need one near Morehead City. I can get there from my home and back, but will need a Supercharger in the area during my 4 day stay. I'll have to use gas fuel for the trip instead.

    Do I have to buy and carry extra charger in the car for long trips?

    I bought my 2919 M3 Dual Motor new and have made several long trips, including returning last week to Charlotte from Dallas. We used Tesla chargers all the way by simply entering our destination to the in-car GPS before leaving home and charging when recommended. We only drove about 350 miles...

    How to sync with outlook calendar on iPhone

    What do you mean by "Once added make sure you have the Calendar option checked"? Calendar option in Tesla? On the iPhone somewhere?

    I would blame it on Siri. ;)

    Easy Entry doesn't recognize the current driver

    If my wife has driven the car before me Easy Entry indicates her settings. I have to change to my name manually. If I drove the car last my wife gets my settings and has to change manually. If we both get in the car at about the same time and then I press the brake I get her settings. I do have...

    Charging screen "payment method required" button doesn't work

    I originated this thread. My problem was solved by calling Tesla Service, although I might have been better off if I didn't call. Turns out I had gotten credit for free charging when I referred a potential driver. He later decided not to buy a Tesla but something got stuck in the system and I...

    New upgrade option as of 9/19

    I've activated the Enhanced Auto Pilot free trial but it doesn't seem to be working at all - no lane changing, no auto park, etc. I've watched videos and read descriptions in support but no success. I've been trying to get Tesla Support on the phone but having very long wait times. From an...

    New upgrade option as of 9/19

    I agree with you. What I really want is the ability to pass slower vehicles on a highway without disengaging but not sure if that's worth $4000. I am using the free trial but it got totally confused on a two lane road and disengaged itself. Another time it tried to steer into head on traffic on...

    Charging screen "payment method required" button doesn't work

    You're right - not there. When it first showed up there was a ">" to the right of the words within the red button, or oval, or notice. (Whatever it is).

    Charging screen "payment method required" button doesn't work

    Yeah, did that first by logging into my Tesla account from my computer.

    Charging screen "payment method required" button doesn't work

    Right. I read that also before I posted this. You can tap that "button" or "notice" all you want and nothing happens.

    Charging screen "payment method required" button doesn't work

    I already went into my Tesla account from my browser and checked. The first time I saw that my credit card had expired so I updated the information and waited a week or so. The notice is still there on the charging screen. I logged again from my computer just to confirm that my payment...

    Charging screen "payment method required" button doesn't work

    Recently a red button popped up on my Charging Screen labeled "payment method required." It has an > to the right of it which seems to indicate I could tap on the button to go to another screen. Nothing happens when I tap the button. I have updated my card on the website, and also updated to...

    Pushing range: How far can you really go?

    Thanks. Even though your conditions (speed, most level surface, no HVAC, etc.) are beyond what I would consider normal driving, your test gives a good indication of what contributes to battery drain. The list might be useful when I fond myself with an unexpectedly low battery and too many miles.

    Anyone else bothered by the "3D" zoom-out on the IC nav display

    I like the way the zoom feature works, except I would prefer that it zoom in a little sooner than it does.

    Blog Tesla Accuses Rivian of Poaching Employees, Stealing Trade Secrets

    Courts have been reluctant to enforce non-compete agreements against individual former employees, because the former employee would be unable to pursue a career using the knowledge and skills they gained in previous jobs. Otherwise, you have large companies with vast resources trying to block an...

    Can't log on to Google after 2020.12.11.1 version update M3

    Ok, dumb mistake, so I'll answer my own question. My premium connectivity expired. Went into my account and upgraded. Super easy.

    Can't log on to Google after 2020.12.11.1 version update M3

    After my recent Model 3 version update to 12.11.1 I can't get what I call the "Google Earth photo" version of the map - only the basic graphic version even when connected to w-ifi at home. Tried going to the Internet via the Cards menu but Google does not recognize my email or phone number to...

    What do you enjoy most about driving your Tesla?

    Whenever there is a car pooling situation everyone wants to ride with me. Recently a friend sent out a group text to find someone who could take his daughter and grandson to the airport. I offered to take them and so did another guy who drives a Maserati. They decided to ride with me, because...

    Scheduled Departure

    I agree with your suggestions. I've experienced the same issues, but only in the last month or so.Before that it worked quite well. But I would still like to see a separate option for conditioning and the ability to set a daily schedule like the Nissan Leaf has. This morning was even weirder...

    Software update version 36.2.1 user interface changes

    I've always turned "creep" off, The car would go into hold mode when I came to a stop using the brake pedal. With the update the car goes into hold when I slow to a stop without the brake,making full use of regen. Unlike the Leaf that I had prior, the Tesla's regen is aggressive enough to bring...

    Software update version 36.2.1 user interface changes

    I'm also a big fan of HOLD mode. I find that one pedal driving leads more efficient driving / use of the battery. I did take me a while to get used to it in reverse. I was either moving too fast or stopping when I wanted to keep moving backward.

    Tesla Trade Value in Vs. CarMax Trade in Value

    I'm not familiar with the Carmax offer, but if you can manage it, you can do better if you sell your current car yourself. Cars.com and other buy/sell websites give you access to Kelly Bluebook or other well known value estimators. I've sold many cars myself over the years and pocketed the...

    Sudden Decelleration on Highway - NOA

    Several times my car has braked hard at 65 mph on a busy Interstate while in cruise control or auto pilot. Cruise control or auto pilot stays engaged. No change in speed limit. I think it could be that there were marks on the road surface that the car could not understand. Once it happened where...

    Sending navigation destinations remote to car

    Google Maps has an icon for "send to your phone." Works for me. But I'm having a lot of trouble getting Google Calendar to sync with my Tesla 3. It only works some of the time. I'm looking for a place to post this issue.

    Need Feature that Disables Auto-Lock When Car’s Parked at Specified Location

    I also would like the option to opt out of autolock when the car is in my garage. I'm ok with it not locking while it's in my driveway because it's never left there except for a brief time while I get something out of the garage. If I had to leave it out overnight or leave it out unattended I...
