    No Safety Score

    Nope. We had it for four days, then got the beta, been driving the beta for four days, no driving issues, beta still works, but safety score gone from the app. Haven't figured out how to get it back, but not too worried. In the meantime, driving the beta is cool. But wow it does some weird...

    Fender camera obscured by condensation -- my first mobile service appointment

    About three hours from when I dropped it off until it was ready, but they also resealed the front upper control arm ball joints, and replaced the refrigerant pressure/temperature sensors. Both of those items were at their initiative, not my request.

    Fender camera obscured by condensation -- my first mobile service appointment

    Repair complete, and under warranty. The invoice says "Replaced left front turn signal/fog light". I asked the service guy whether the likely cause was improper sealing of the light on manufacture. He said yes. I asked him whether there was anything I could have done to resolve the condensation...

    Fender camera obscured by condensation -- my first mobile service appointment

    Halfway through a two-week road trip, on a rainy day of driving, the left front fender camera on our year-old MY became obscured by condensation inside the housing. One week later, after many ambient temperature changes, driving, not driving, etc., etc., the condensation is still there. I've...

    Dog Mode

    I'm inferring from this (maybe incorrectly) that you're not yet a Tesla owner? Yes, the Tesla app tells you the temp inside the car. Google "tesla app ios screenshot" to see some examples. We use dog mode often, for our two dogs. It's great.

    What is the first Model Y VIN’s with pedestrian warning system?

    Our is VIN 451xx, mid-September delivery in Toronto (so must have been built no later than second week of September), with PWS.

    Driver side mirror does not fully adjust

    Same issue with a friend's 75xxx MY picked up today in Toronto (I was there for moral support). Delivery advisor said a few others delivered that day had the same thing. He claimed that it was normal, and it was because of the shape of the mirror in the housing. Complete nonsense, unfortunately.

    Decision decision decision

    Have you previously cared a lot about fit and finish? If so, good to be cautious, but as you note, things seem to be better. If you haven't previously cared a lot, don't get freaked out by what you see online. I almost did. I've owned many cars, and I've never been the kind of person that took...

    Parking in a tight garage

    Yes, getting into a tight spot is harder than getting out of a tight spot. And yes, visibility is better out the front than out the back. But what makes a big difference is that the front wheels turn, and the back wheels don't. You can't manoeuvre the tail end of the car nearly as easily as you...

    Ordered 10/5. Got my VIN 10/9

    The M before the F tells us it's a 2021 model. The last five digits tell us the sequence. Most people when posting will put x's for the last two digits, so for example the last five digits of mine are 451xx. That means it was about the 45,000th MY produced. I received mine in mid-September...

    Preparing for MY delivery

    I'll chime in about charging. Think carefully about whether you actually need a wall charger. You might pay for capacity you don't need. When I was doing pre-order research, I initially assumed I would need a charger, just because. But as I did more research, I concluded that I didn't need one...

    About to install NEMA 14-50 ...

    Congrats on the order! I've had my MY for three weeks and love it. I did a lot of research and thinking, and decided to go with the NEMA 14-50, with no wall charger. It's on a 40-amp circuit, which gives 32 amps continuous load. That equates to almost 30 miles of range for every hour of charge...

    Well, this is odd. I'm replying to my own post. :D This morning I said the above. This evening I got home from a road trip and Teslascope now wants me to pay $3/month for a premium subscription to see drives and charges, and other things. That's new. I will be doing some research and...

    GPS HomeLink tweak

    FSD settings

    I'm curious, if you don't mind sharing. Can you give some examples of settings that differ between your two profiles? Thanks. My MY is 2 days old and I tried FSD for the first time yesterday. I'm wary, but I'm impressed.

    I can't be sure, but I agree with you that it looks like a mistake. I picked up yesterday as well at Lawrence. My birthday's in November. Mine is plated to Nov 2021 and my licence fee was either $199 or $200, depending on whether you looked at the MVPA or my account page on the website. I paid...

    Picked up our MY today. Never even ridden in a Tesla before. Have now been for a few drives this afternoon. Love it. We have a charging port door misalignment (not serious) and a 2 cm scuff on one piece of black trim. Other than that, all good. Panel gaps are fine, suspension bolts are on :D...

    It's Wednesday! Where is the text?

    I wondered the same thing a couple of Wednesdays ago, and was pouting for a couple of days... until the Friday, when I got a text asking me to pick a delivery appointment! So maybe it's a good reason. I hope so.

    And by the way... I just saw in another thread that you may not be able to get a VIN until you've entered your payment terms (cash, or accepting the offered payment terms, etc.). Have you done that?

    Model Y for Canada!

    Which makes it very confusing. I have two documents in my list. The first, like yours, is an order agreement. And, like yours, when I open it, it says MVPA at the top. But it's not really the MVPA. The second document, which arrived a couple of weeks after I ordered, was shown in the list as...

    I don't see your MVPA in that screen shot. The order agreement is different. Only when you get the Motor Vehicle Purchase Agreement will it show a VIN.

    Lawrence/DVP Correct. Launch browser, click, click, click, two minutes later I bought a car! :D Thanks for the suggestion. A good friend received his MY about six weeks ago (this is all his fault), and he has been very helpful. I've spent an unconscionable amount of time online, reading...

    Can I install a 240 Volt NEMA 14-30 outlet off my 30 Amp garage subpanel?

    I don't have any expertise, but I have a similar situation to yours.

    I was discussing this exact point with my father (who's envious about the impending arrival of my MY) a few days ago.
