    Tesla wall connector vs NEMA 14-50

    Why a M3 can draw different amounts of current using Tesla wall connector (48 amp) vs. NEMA 14-50 (32 amp)? Is it some component(s) on the car that decides this current value?

    Tesla return policy

    Can I ask when you ordered your MY? My understanding is same as yours. Only $100 is nonrefundable and all others shall be refunded. Otherwise, per the information on Tesla’s website, they would have committed a fraud.

    Tesla return policy

    If I cancel my order before delivery or return a vehicle in 7 days after delivery, will Tesla refund the transportation fee? I saw different answers at different places. Can anybody please confirm? Thanks.

    Model Y price reduction

    Same here, ordered in June, made the payment, but haven’t taken the delivery yet. Look forward to seeing if Tesla would match the price drop.

    Guys, thank you again for your suggestions!

    MY pick up experience

    Yep, this is my biggest concern. If the break was somehow caused by a deformation of the frame, replacing the glass may or may not fix the actual problem.

    MY pick up experience

    Thank you for your input. A follow up question: do you think, by replacing the roof glass, they might actually fix the assembly/stress problems that otherwise would not have been discovered? I don’t know if you’re aware of other folks with similar experience - having the roof glass broken...

    MY pick up experience

    So I was ready to pick up my MY this morning. Inspections went well, there were some minor paint chips and slight misalignment of a tail light. I asked them to fix the tail light before acceptance, which should not take long. On my way home, they called and told me the roof glass was broken...

    How to install front license plate on MY

    I know this is probably a stupid question. Does MY come with predrilled holes at front for license plate? If not, I guess Tesla service center will help?

    Wall connector vs. NEMA 14-50 connector

    How long does it take to charge MY with the GEN3 wall connector vs. NEMA 14-50 connector? I’m debating whether to install the wall connector or NEMA 14-50 connector. I want to hear recommendations from you guys,

    Tesla trade-in offer

    Carmax so-called touch free appraisal process just means they give an appraisal without getting into you car and test drive. You still need to bring in your car for inspection. During the inspection, you keep the doors and hood open, keep the engine running, and step outside and stand aside...

    Tesla trade-in offer

    Also try Carmax. I had no experience with Carvana. But I sold my car to Carmax at a price 16% higher than Tesla's offer. The process is fairly straight. They took a "touch-free" evaluation and gave you an appraisal letter. If you decide to take it, you bring the appraisal with title docs...

    Tesla vehicle registration

    The "Pricing Detail" in my account includes the following three items. I suspect they're the registrations fees? I know in Texas I have to register the vehicle myself at a local tax office. Does that mean I don't have to pay additional registration fees? - Taxes & Fees - State Safety...

    Tesla trade-in offer

    Yes, if you read the early replies to this post, several folks said so. In my case, I tried to contact Tesla to see if they’d possibly match it. I just didn’t get any response. So I went ahead to trade in it at another dealer. The dealers appraisal is $1400 higher than the Tesla offer.

    Insurance required before delivery?

    Could anyone confirm whether insurance must be provided before delivery, in Texas? My account is updated that I need to provide insurance before delivery. I'm a bit confused b/c I even don't know the VIN number. It's not in the source code.

    Tesla trade-in offer

    I sold my car to a local dealer. I contacted Tesla asking whether they can match. No response period. So, I’m not going to rely on it anymore, given all the uncertainty around their trade in process. I’m quite disappointed so far with Tesla’s customer service.

    Tesla trade-in offer

    How did you get in contact with the “delivery associate”? Did they contact you in the first place? Same here, I got a text message from Tesla asking me to submit all the trade in information ASAP in order to get an early delivery. If I have known all the tricks, I might wait a little longer...

    Tesla trade-in offer

    That’s too bad. If they simply decide not to match carmax, I can understand. But if the offer drops value b/c of a belated delivery caused by them, that doesn’t seem reasonable.

    Tesla trade-in offer

    Does Tesla still match the Carmax appraisal offer? i saw different answers, could someone clarify with their recent experience? In addition, Tesla says its trade-in offer is good for 30 days. But if my MY is delivered outside that time window , will they still honor their trade-in offer?

    Does Tesla require a full payment before scheduling the delivery?

    Totally understood. I didn't have good experience with Tesla's online chat or e-mail service, either. I used the online chat twice to ask some questions, and as a follow-up, was asked to send emails to their specialists. No response, period. Don't know if they're too busy or they just...

    Does Tesla require a full payment before scheduling the delivery?

    Thank you for your explanation, very informative! I heard in Texas trade-in of an old car can reduce the final sales tax of the new car. Will that information be included/shown in the "docs" FedExed from Tesla?

    Does Tesla require a full payment before scheduling the delivery?

    You mentioned the sales tax needs to be paid separately in Texas? Do we pay it through Tesla at pickup, or to the state directly by ourselves at registration? Tesla asked for my registration information. So, I have thought they’d help with the registration paperwork, like other auto dealers...

    Shipping cost for Tesla accessories

    Appreciate the information, the price looks good. But do they smell Okay? I bought floor mats from third parties before. They look similar but sometimes smell bad.

    How much does Tesla charge for the shipping cost of online order of Tesla accessories, e.g., all weather floor mats? Does Tesla allow free return of such accessories?

    Seek suggestions to install an at-home charger for model Y

    I'd like to install an at-home charger for MY. Either GEN 3 wall connector (48 amps) or GEN 2 NEMA 14-50 adapter (32 amps) is acceptable to me. I have confirmed that the existing circuit breakers in my house are only 20 amps. So I'll have to run a new cable and install a new breaker. The...
