Had the sensors replaced. Heat pump failed subsequently and I live in Pittsburgh. It was chilly but not exceptionally (-20C)

I’ve had pressure and temperature sensors replaced twice proactively. Tesla replaced them when the car was in for tires. Even after this the heat pump failed last week. Temps were about -20C so nothing crazy. Tesla still doesn’t have this completely figured out but I hope they do before the...

+1 Can’t fathom why you’d put that ugly sticker on there. Wow!

“Lion Hart” Never heard of those. Cheap Chinese rubber?

It's worth a try but I expect you'll spend more time trying to get a refund than the $100 is worth. I had paid for vin 2701 in full a few months ago and had to ask for a refund after they damaged the car in transport. They would not let me inspect the damage and rerouted the driver back to the...

The preferred method of payment is certainly handing over funds at delivery for the reason you stated. This isn't in option in all cases however. For example, unless I want to drive from ME to NJ (MA is not an option because I'd pay sales tax twice) I have to pay in advance before they will ship...

Read your MVPA. It clearly states that you can pay by check or wire transfer. ACH is simply the most convenient method. While Tesla prefers you to pay in advance you can also pay at pickup with a cashier’s check. This is will avoid the potential headache of seeking a refund if you reject the car...

I actually didn't reject it. I never got the opportunity to see it. It was turned around in transit due to damage. Cancelling the reservation wasn't the right answer but I'm done with dealing with them for a while. I'm not that desperate for a Tesla.

Update: Tesla came through with the refund. Unfortunately they cancelled the reservation at the same time even though that's not what I asked for. In the end I'm out $100 and a couple hours spent with Tesla Customer Service but at least it's done.

My misunderstanding. Guess I'll purchase afterwards anyway for lower excise tax and credit card points.

$6000 was probably based on your original order date. I ordered 2/3/20 and FSD was $7000. If you order after delivery in the app you can effectively avoid some of the increase in price because you won’t pay sales tax. Also a yearly savings if your state has excise tax.

I never took delivery. Never even saw the car. It would’ve been nice for them to send a picture of the damage. I cancelled the order. If you accept delivery then send it back it is called “returning”. I confirmed this difference with one of their employees. The return policy makes sense to...

I went the refund route after the only other option was to wait for repairs. I wouldn’t want a repainted hood anyway. If anyone gets assigned vin 2701 realize that you aren’t getting a factory fresh paint job. It was frustrating and time consuming to deal with. I have really never experienced...

It’s financed and the shipper caused the damage I believe. No one at Tesla has much information. They offered me a loaner today only to tell me later that they wouldn’t allocate one based on needing parts and Fremont being shut down. Anyway it is very disappointing and I’ve spoken with many very...

I'd like some suggestions for my next course of action. I have a White Y AWD vin #2701 that I paid for (required before delivery as there is no dealer in Maine) but was damaged in transport. On Tuesday a third party delivery company told me they'd be delivering it that afternoon. An hour after...

So my vehicle was damaged in transport. They turned the delivery driver around and now it sits in Boston. Unfortunately the car is already paid for as required for a Maine delivery. They do not have info on what the damage is and I was told it will either go to a body shop or I'll get a...

They sure are. 2701 was loaded on a third party carrier headed from Deadham, MA to me this afternoon. The driver told me it was a five hour drive and he’d call when he was 30 minutes out. When that time came and went I called him and he said “uh, can I call you back?” At this point I was a...

I'm waiting on that exact config +FSD. Send it my way.

I used the number here. Order and Delivery - Model 3

I spoke with a Tesla rep an hour ago regarding this as my order page for a white AWD +FSD with 19" wheels (anything else is not practical on northern Maine roads) changed several days ago to allow for financing, trade-in, and insurance info to be put in. He said that unless you ordered a...
