    Wiki Model S Delivery Update

    I usually don't get bothered by cringe, but that was on another level.

    Tesla.com - "Transitioning to Tesla Vision"

    Unfortunately 2021.4.18.2 does not make the auto high beams any better for my ride last night. Just goes to show how many different cases there are to cover. Good to see it’s much better when there are more cars on the road and none of the super reflective signs.

    Tesla.com - "Transitioning to Tesla Vision"

    Honestly I’m starting to think speed is the biggest factor in it failing to keep autopilot. After I posted my Reddit thread many posted videos of it working in heavier rain that I did, but they weren’t 70+ MPH like my run and that video. Either way, hopefully it’s improved quickly. At no point...

    Elon tweets "pure vision" will solve phantom braking

    Yeah, I don't like saying anybody is just making stuff up to make Tesla look bad after I saw people claiming I was doing that with my reddit post. That being said I would be beyond surprised if there wasn't something very wrong with their car. Phantom braking is very much still a thing, but it...

    Tesla.com - "Transitioning to Tesla Vision"

    If I’m understanding your question correctly the two things I was mainly referring to with others having problems with AP was this post. This was actually kind of the catalyst of my post as that was a reaction from one new to Tesla and why I worded the post as one from someone not new to...

    Tesla.com - "Transitioning to Tesla Vision"

    I have not yet. Near the end of the ride home it had stopped raining and still required it though. The wording of the warning makes me believe that the requirement has nothing to do with weather so I would be VERY surprised if it allowed them to be turned off at any time. I did just drive to...

    Tesla.com - "Transitioning to Tesla Vision"

    Yes, that was my post on Reddit. Yeah, I know others don’t like the auto high beams, and I disabled it on my old one near immediately. The problem is you can’t even use cruise control now without them on for the new non-radar cars. So you have to decide between flashing people from behind...

    Tesla.com - "Transitioning to Tesla Vision"

    I usually don't like linking accounts between sites to myself, but that was me. It is every bit of as bad as I said if not more just because I was kind of afraid I would get obliterated there posting a negative reaction. It did actually get removed as not helpful, but they put it back up...

    Radar deleted on all new Model Y and Model 3. Is FSD worth it?

    I'm too lazy to type it out again, so just going to link to the post I made on Reddit. In short I am incredibly disapointed in how it handles even slightly inclement weather, and even more so that it doesn't work as well even when it's just dark. Edit: Apparently it auto shows the post when...

    Did the blind spot monitoring just got worse

    You can press right and left on the right scroll wheel on the steering wheel to adjust follow distance.
  11. D

    Why is FSD not transferable to your next Tesla?

    Greed, and the fact that they can get away with it. At least for now.

    That July estimate is looking more and more likely. :)

    Supercharger - Bridgewater, NJ

    Nice! So it’s confirmed. That was my best guess and where I was hoping it would be. I may be looking at it wrong, but looks like the plan is to put them on the side kind of like the Manahawkin one. Think that’s a good idea. Their air station in the back seems to be SUPER popular. I often...

    2018 Performance Model 3, FSD, 36k Miles, Plus Upgrades

    Oh man, what a beauty. The Chrome delete seems to have been done really well too. Sent a DM your way.
  15. D

    Does performance feel safer?

    honestly it’s pretty hard to say. I honestly can’t think of any situations off hand. I’ve only been in one accident ever, and there was no real avoiding it. Guy ran right into me at a light and only real place I could have gone was to the right, and there was a car there.

    Supercharger - Flemington, NJ

    I'm super excited for this since it will be the first new supercharger near me since I got my car even though I'm unlikely to use it much so checked again. Wasn't super hot, but was sunny today and seemed to melt a bit. Next few days should be same, so that's good. Still waiting for that...

    Does performance feel safer?

    Hehe, thanks for the input Bigtuna!

    Does performance feel safer?

    Perhaps a dumb question, but let me explain. I also had old economy cars previously. I got the Model Y and was blown away by it's speed despite being the second slowest at that time behind the SR+ 3. I always thought having good acceleration was just a party trick and just for fun. While it...

    Service says $22k for new battery on 2012 Model S

    Yeah, hopefully that changes as more and more get off warranty and even better hopefully more and more 3rd party repair places.

    Service says $22k for new battery on 2012 Model S

    That's one heck of a core charge! lol Anyway, thanks for the info.
  21. D

    Service says $22k for new battery on 2012 Model S

    I'm really sorry to hear that. Yeah, I would personally never own a Tesla out of warranty. As others have said might be worth going to someone else to see if it can be done cheaper. Edit: Not that it's an important part of this, but see some saying they keep the old one too? I probably...

    2021 Model Y - LR AWD - Blue w/White Interior ~1.5k miles, $49k (Colorado)

    Am I correct to assume this doesn’t currently have a heated steering wheel? I know the popular theory is they’ll be activated later potentially, but I know some have it activated from factory.

    Selling 2016 Model S 75D 113K Miles

    With all due respect as others have said the market value of the car seems to be around the low to mid $30s mark. It's not like a 2016 75D is all that hard to find on the used market. For example here's another that is similar to your for sale after a minute or so of searching 2016 Used Tesla...

    Lifetime Usage

    I know it's a super small thing and kind of dumb to be upset about, but I'm still super salty I lost the lifetime stats when my motor broke and had to be replaced. Not sure why, but everything was erased to defaults.

    Supercharger - Flemington, NJ

    Just dropped by. No noticeable progress. Still seems to be waiting on the transformer or whatever that big block is. Still had all the snow pushed up against most the stalls.

    Supercharger - Bridgewater, NJ

    Am I correct to assume the pins location on the coming soon map has nothing to do with it’s expected location which is why we’re still speculating on it?

    Supercharger - Bridgewater, NJ

    I’m thinking maybe the Wawa near Costco? Seems Wawa’s love them. The Flemington one is at a Wawa too. Hopefully this time it sticks.

    New Jersey NJ EV Rebate

    Submitted: Sept 29th Approved: Nov 4th Still no shipped email, but happy with the approval. I imagine it will likely be another month at least? I guess we'll see what happens first, I get the check, or my car is fixed. :)

    Drive unit replacement experiences / timeline?

    Ok yeah, mine was after parking. Luckily that meant it broke down in a safe location at least. They have yet to say anything about what’s wrong or say anything about a loaner. A M3 would be great. Kinda want to try how the sedan drives. Not getting my hopes up though as most say they don’t...

    Drive unit replacement experiences / timeline?

    I guess 2 weeks isn’t too bad, that’s assuming the ETA was accurate. Did you have similar symptoms to mine it just randomly made a clunk and crapped out? I actually took delivery day after you the 29th. Perhaps a bad batch? If so hopefully that means we won’t have problems in the future and...

    Drive unit replacement experiences / timeline?

    Yeah, probably should have specified. When I called they had me do the brake and two buttons thing, and a power off in settings followed by waiting 5 minutes neither helped. Originally they said, “ok, seems it needs to be repaired. Looks like you already have an appointment for the 25th. You...

    Drive unit replacement experiences / timeline?

    Hey there, got my Y about a month and a half ago. Had some issues, but was mostly good until I was going to drive it today. Heard a kind of grinding / whirring then a big thunk. It showed for about a second that rear drive motor was disabled, but still ok to drive. As soon as I finished...

    Tesla Model Y Windows Shatters on its Own

    I guess compression can do funny things, but even on my phone I can see something happening at the moment of the sound in the back window. Sure you have to be looking for it, but it’s even easier to see on a 15 inch laptop screen. Not sure how you can miss it on a big screen. I understand...

    Tesla Model Y Windows Shatters on its Own

    Why do people immediately doubt people with issues? I mean I guess it could be made up, but it seems to be the default response when it comes to Tesla. Way more than any other brand I can think of. I'm sure it wouldn't be hard to doctor the video, but it's pretty clear something is happening...

    Tesla site down

    Is Tesla really going to just straight up not make any announcement? It’s been hours now. From what I see some think it’s a massive outage in California. I wish they’d say that instead of letting people let their minds wander to the potential worst of them being hacked or something.

    How do I defer delivery?

    One thing to note is this may be the best timing for that. I was told the year resets October 1st, so that’s darn near perfect for people getting them now.
  41. D

    August/September VIN Notifications and Deliveries

    Yes, but unfortunately it wasn’t good. Basically a week and a half ago they added an MVPA and asked me to pay. I payed, and a day later they took it down. A day after that I called and they said there was a “minor quality concern” with the car so they unassigned me. Nothing since. Not only...

    New Jersey Waiting Room

    It’s a 10 year program. Although you never know with government they’d have to cut it entirely or prune it a LOT more.

    Please pay off your remaining balance prior to delivery

    Yeah, I wouldn't pay before going for pick up. They're now holding onto over 20k of mine for who knows how long.

    Tesla's employee cancelled my Model Y by Mistake!

    Wow! Every time I think my experience is bad I see something like this. That’s absolutely terrible! Hopefully they make it right for you. At the VERY least they better refund the non-refundable $100.

    MVPA no longer in account?

    I believe it is Lending Agreement if you are financing through Tesla. Not sure if you also get and MVPA. Yeah, that’s where the MVPA showed though.

    How do I defer delivery?

    My understanding is they cut 16 million from the entire budget, not 16 million every year. Even if so it's a 10 year program. They didn't allocate all the funds in a big bucket. It has a yearly cap as well and a total cap. The new year also starts October 1st. Unless they scrap it completely...

    How do I defer delivery?

    Maybe I’m just overly optimistic, but don’t think there’s much worry about the rebate straight up going away any time soon. It was originally 10 years 100 million earmarked at max of 10 million a year I think. Even dropping 16 million from it leave some 8 years. Who knows though. As the...

    How do I defer delivery?

    Yeah, their communication is almost comically bad. Honestly at this point I'd just tell them you're not ready if they ever reach out to you. If they don't and go ahead with the 9/22 delivery date just don't show up and you should be put back into queue AFAIK. It's not like there's any fee for...

    Can’t believe they won’t give at least a week. Especially since we have to wait weeks. Here’s hoping you get it early or they keep it held for you.

    Post your rejected or returned MY VIN here.

    5YJYGDEE8LF047583 Not rejected or returned, but there was a problem with it that they said they unassigned as that would likely be quicker than waiting for a fix. Just in case someone gets assigned it later go over it with an even finer toothed comb than usual. They said it was a “minor...
