    Model Y Service Bulletins

    Super appreciate you posting these SBs and info about how to subscribe!! Very useful information. Can you tell us how to find out if our VIN is involved, for instance on the Replace Rear Drive Unit?

    Be aware! Missing Control Arm Nut: Potential Safety Issue

    Thank you so much for sharing these photos and identifying this issue. We have taken delivery of two Model Y’s in the last 60 days, but I will certainly check for these nuts asap. While both of our Model Y’s have performed great, one of the two was missing fasteners on the inside wheel well...

    Disappearing VINs?

    I had a similar issue the week before I took delivery of my MY on 07/26/2020. VIN disappeared for about 2 days, but delivery specialist confirmed he could see it in his system. After a couple of days there it was, same vin, same car!

    AWD Non-Performance White Interior Waiting Room

    Very funny! Me too! Ordered a load of stuff (screen protector, console organizer, USB hub...). Have a big pile of stuff waiting to install. But...took delivery today!! Overall very good, and can’t wait to drive more tomorrow!

    Model Y Avatar not showing brake / turn signals

    Hi folks - I took delivery of my new Red/White/AWD/Gemini/FSD Model Y today! I thought that the little avatar on the left side of the screen would show my brake lights, turn signals and headlights. While it does show the doors open and close, I don’t see the lights. Is there an option I have...

    Picked Up My Red MY

    Took delivery of my Model Y today. Configuration is Red/White/AWD/FSD/19” Geminis. Went over the car thoroughly with a car savvy friend. Found a few alignment issues, two paint chips, but no other significant discoveries I did not know about before arrival. That’s because the service center...

    Disappearing VINs?

    My VIN reappeared in the order page and source about 6pm last night. The MVPA link has not reappeared yet, but I think they are revising because I removed my trade in. Delivery is still set on the order page for 07/26 as well. Getting close!

    Picked Up My Red MY

    I agree. When I pick up this config on Sunday it will have 19” Gemini’s, and I think the wheels look great on this color with the Gemini caps removed

    AWD Non-Performance White Interior Waiting Room

    I haven’t done the wrap, but have ordered an alternative called a “shell” from AbstractOcean. They sell wraps as well. The thing I like about the shell is 1) it’s much easier to install than the wrap, and 2) it offers a slightly extra thickness to the console, which results in the console...

    Will pending deliveries and orders get MY price reduction?

    Tesla has adjusted both my Model Y orders lower by $2k (-$3k for car, +1k for FSD)

    Disappearing VINs?

    I was assigned a VIN July 9 (showed up in source then on order page shortly after). The next day I got the prepare for delivery text and immediately called the delivery center and scheduled 07/21 delivery in Charlotte NC. Yesterday they called and said my vehicle was not expected to arrive...

    Model Y price reduction

    I am scheduled for a 07/21 delivery. I emailed my advisor yesterday asking for a $2000 discount (-$3000 for MY and +$1000 for FSD), and he said he “opened a case” for my order. Today my order page has been updated to reflect a $2000 lower cost! It appears you just need to ask if you haven’t...

    New Model Y Price Reduction

    I doubt it. I think you have to take the increase and decrease both. I am scheduled for a 07/21 delivery.

    Model Y price reduction

    Just checked my order page for the MY scheduled for delivery next week, and the price has been lowered by $2000! Very happy! Now I just need to have the same discount applied to my other order and we can keep that $4k!

    Model Y price reduction

    I am scheduled to take delivery of my MY on 07/21. I emailed my advisor yesterday and he emailed back and said he would submit my “case to be reviewed”. I should add I have a second MY ordered for my wife which we have not gotten a VIN assigned yet. I included this order in my request for...

    Will pending deliveries and orders get MY price reduction?

    That sounds like the right plan. I will be calling tomorrow as well. It would really be a nice surprise to get $2k off both MYs!

    Will pending deliveries and orders get MY price reduction?

    I have delivery scheduled for my MY on 07/21/2020. I also ordered a MY for my wife which is pending VIN assignment. Does anyone know for sure if Tesla will reduce the price to match current website pricing in these two circumstances? I don’t want to cancel and reorder to get the lower price...

    So did you get that beautiful red MY yet?? My config is exactly the same...plus I GOT MY VIN TODAY!! I also have a 18xxx VIN, so our cars will be twins ;).

    Wiki Teslike Model Y Survey & Order Tracker Spreadsheet

    Can anybody tell me why there are so many duplicate VINs on the order spreadsheet? When sorting by VIN order there are tons of duplicates, often with the same color but updated by different users.

    I got my car today.

    No way!?? I thought those were mechanical releases all the way to the button, not electric switches. Good tip!
  31. Hawkstrike

    I got my car today.

    Congrats Steve! The extension cord could make a difference. Shorter cords (say 10' instead of 25') and larger gauge wire in the cord (12 Gauge is larger than 14 Gauge in wire size). The combination of a shorter cord and larger conductor will allow the greatest amount of current to flow.

    "Prepare for Delivery" on account status - should I get excited?

    Update - once the Tesla loan status went from “pending” to approved (with lender and rates noted) it now says “Overview” instead on “Prepare for delivery”. Now I just have to convince my wife to come home from the delivery center...

    "Prepare for Delivery" on account status - should I get excited?

    That’s good information. We will take delivery in Charlotte as well. The last few times we stopped by the parking lot was slam full with cars for delivery. I agree...the delay tends to relieve the anxiety about fit and finish issues, and with some exceptions there have been a lot of positive...

    "Prepare for Delivery" on account status - should I get excited?

    My wife ordered a Model Y on 06/22/2020. I was just logging into her account this morning to complete registration details and it says "Prepare for delivery" on the Manage page just below the vehicle picture. In contrast, when I log into my own Tesla account (I placed a MY order 30 days ago)...

    That’s almost my config, but I did not order FSD (though I consider it every day). I hope your delivery goes well and that fit and finish is good. Let us know how things go. Congrats!

    Gen 3 HPWC on a 110, 20Amp Circuit?

    AWD Non-Performance White Interior Waiting Room

    I'm jealous Snowie! I did a test drive of a Model 3 and a Model Y in Charlotte on May 23rd, 2020 and ordered a Model Y Red/White/LR/no FSD/no hitch on May 24th, 2020. Haven't received VIN, texts or email yet, but still hopeful since you are getting a delivery in Charlotte. Please let us know...
  42. Hawkstrike

    Another text blast? "...built in the next 7 days."

    Man, I am glad to see you got your VIN! I have a similar config - Red-White-LR-Gemini but no FSD or Hitch. I'm in SC, so seeing progress in FL is encouraging. When did you order?

    Gen 3 HPWC on a 110, 20Amp Circuit?

    I’m sorry to tell you the HPWC is not compatible with 110v 20Amps circuits. The minimum requirements are 208v or 240v with a minimum 40 Amps breaker. I would suggest you provide the manual (find it at https://www.tesla.com/sites/default/files/blog_attachments/ms_hpwc_installation_guide.pdf )...

    AWD Non-Performance White Interior Waiting Room

    Super sharp! I ordered my Y on 05/23/2020 - LR - Red Ext - White Int - 19” Gemini wheels. I prefer the lighter wheel colors, and really like the look of the 19” wheels with the covers removed. Do you think it affects range, and have you noticed a difference in road noise?

    AWD Non-Performance White Interior Waiting Room

    Your Y with the Gemini wheel covers removed looks great Vistan! Can you tell us if you added the center and lug caps?
