I have had an Ioniq 5 for two months and I love it. I have the limited AWD though. Previously had an S, which I sold because it was extremely unreliable and I was over it. The I5 is very quiet, and the ride is smooth and solid. The car is still very zippy, especially in sport mode. But...

I bought both the TeslaTap (40 amp) and the Lectron and could never get the Lectron to work. No problems with the Teslatap. Returned the Lectron. Just FYI. I have a normal Tesla home charger (Gen 2). Also, you're going to love your Ioniq 5!

Hi sckor, I only tried the adaptive cruise/autopilot on a divided highway, so can't comment. I was hovering for sure, because I had some of the phantom braking in my S (although I had radar). This car has radar too. Ioniq did very well with merging traffic from the right, coming up on...

2021, but pre-refresh. So took delivery in October, 2020. Had it 15 months.

Finally home and got to spend the day playing with the car. Better than Tesla: Spacious feeling in front seats. Luxury touches (HUD, ventilated seats, 360 camera view, hooks to hang my jacket) Quiet. Adjustable regen braking options. Blind spot warning (I know many Teslas now have this...

Well, I bought one. Let me know if you have any questions. Coming from a Model S. Better than Tesla: Spacious feeling in front seats. Luxury touches (HUD, ventilated seats, 360 camera view, hooks to hang my jacket) Quiet. Adjustable regen braking options. Blind spot warning (I know many...

You are welcome...I will definitely give you more thoughts when I actually get to drive it again. I have two more days on this trip (flew, didn't drive), and then really looking forward to spending some time putting it through it's paces. In the meantime, I am watching the videos trying to...

Hi, original poster here. After my final trip to the Service center (which turned into three trips to the service center, and included the car dying at the stoplight two blocks from the service center.. and a tow that the police made me pay for and for which I am still waiting for...

The Model S was my dream car and I had 15 months of great fun. Thank you, Tesla, for converting me to electric vehicles. I would have kept it forever, but the most reliable thing about if was that it was in the service center every six weeks. I just couldn't take it anymore. (My sister...

Refresh Model S's do have hooks, but prior refresh do not. There were a few years you could buy and aftermarket hook you could put on the seat back, but then they changed the seats and my version doesn't allow for that. So value your hooks! Haha!

I drove an SE AWD today and I was very impressed. I've been looking for another car, and don't want another Tesla, but do need to have that EV zip/happy to drive feeling. I was really happy with the Ioniq 5's quickness and handling. This was the low end trim, but was very comfortable...

Yes, I've replaced mine twice to date. Both in the last three months. I've owned the car 15 months. Mobile fixed once, took it in to service the second time (actually it happened after being serviced for something else so I turned around and went back).

Yes, this was happening to me in the late fall, as I backed out of my driveway where I have to make a sharp turn so the steering wheel is fully turned. We didn't have snow or bad conditions yet. It happened probably a half dozen times and I was starting to be concerned. It had not happened...

What was the update with this? My model S is doing the same thing.

Fran Utley '90!

Dave Klein? ‘89? Just guessing from your username.

I'm considering Cocomats in my MS and just put the paper templates they sent me in the car. The Frunk wasn't even close, way too big and I can cut the template down. The trunk template fit well, but I am concerned about how they handle the curved portion of the trunk floor close to the edges...

There actually is no rolling sound, just the thunk sound of what it sounds like when a (imaginary) water bottle hits the door. But in my head I thought that was what was going on because that is what the thunk sounded like. Sorry about the confusion. Yes, Tyson's. And to add insult to...

I just had an alignment done because the car was pulling right. (2021 LR with 2000 miles on it!). Got the car back last night and today I thought someone left a tool or a water bottle under the front passenger seat because it sounds like something is rolling around and hitting the passenger...

Well to follow up, they said one of the connectors to the “Body Electronic Connector” was loose. Believe it was connected in the other end to the 12v? Wasn’t completely clear from the text. Anyway it is tightened now and they said the 12v battery health was good. Got the car back today.

Interestingly, as it was being towed away it went over a slight bump on the curb and all the lights came on. I just assumed the driver had hooked it up somehow but he called me when he got to the service center and said the car was now working normally. He said he had seen the same thing...

2021 Model S LR with 1100 miles on it. Walked out this morning to load car for road trip and it will not drive. First clue is it wouldn’t open the trunk. Then the charger port was red (it does have a full charge to 80% (we plugged it in last night after a short trip and it was charging...

I got two key fobs when I picked up three weeks ago.

Hey all, I have a friend strongly considering a Model S, but lives in the country and it's dark out there. She has been asking me about weak headlights on the Model S because another local friend of hers with one has complained about it. Friend has older model, I have 2021. I live in the...

I guess he just doesn't see what all the fuss is about. I also think he was having a bad day. But he is coming around now that we've had it a couple of weeks. Now I'm pushing him toward replacing HIS car with an X or Y, but he prefers easing into electric with the hybrid Pacifica.

Ah, thanks. This is helpful. I will try it.

Hey, I was looking for some help with the same situation..kicking out of Autosteer. brand new 2021 S that I picked up on Saturday. First Tesla. I drove it Sunday on a 135 mile interstate trip and back on Tuesday. Both times late afternoon to night drives. I used autosteer and kept both...

Now that I’ve had a couple of days, wanted to post a couple of things that surprised me about the car. I had been reading up a lot on what to expect, but somehow missed these so maybe other new or future owners did as well. P.S the premium is working now and FYI it cost $9.99 a year after...

I GOT HER!! Pickup was in Tysons Corner, VA and it was fine. I took a checklist and when I arrived they pointed me in the direction of the car and let me loose. Everything looked fine, a couple of very, very minor scratches and I was not concerned about that because this car is going to sit...

Oh, that dampens my enthusiasm significantly. Sigh. Sorry that you (almost) got such a poorly put together car. I'd better get ready for the inspection....

I am supposed to get mine next Saturday. Would you mind sharing what the defects were so I can keep a look out? what happens if you refuse delivery? Do they find you another car quickly or do you have to start All over with an order and a build?

My model year is also 2021 and I take delivery Oct 24th. Ordered Sept 22. Also I saw that they dropped the price on the account to reflect the $3000 reduction. So to whomever started this thread....go for it!

Endora. A magical badass.

Ordered 9/22/20 (LR Black with Cream Interior, Autopilot). I wanted to order earlier in the summer, but wanted to make sure my work situation was stable during COVID. Then figured I might as well wait until Battery Day. VIN Assigned 10/10 (Just checked my account and it was there, no...
