Slightly different problem here (I think). For clarity, I'm assuming that "autopilot" is the feature that came with my Model Y, that keeps the vehicle centered in the lane (between the lines). I have been getting more an more comfortable with that as I took road trips. It has worked very well...

It's pretty simple....if I have my wife or other family members in the car and I want to park and run onto a store for a couple of things, I should be able to leave the radio, ac, etc on for the passengers. Why should that be hard?

I'd be interested to see what evidence you have that the reports are "fake." Phantom braking is not a fake problem. It has happened to me, probably 8 times in the past 6 months. I no longer use any auto-drive features at night, and won't until Tesla acknowledges and sends out a patch to fix the...

There's a follow-up today (Feb 17).

I'd be happy to report a video, but it happens too quickly and too randomly to catch in a video. What happens to me is this: Usually at night, sometimes when passing an exit, sometimes for no apparent reason, once when passing a cop with the blue lights going on the shoulder...suddenly the...

It has happened to me, several times. I have pretty much stopped using any autodrive at night.

So, my wife keeps finding trouble reports online. Today she found one saying that the windshield defogger stops working properly at 14 degrees F. Where can I find something that says that Tesla cares and is working on a fix? I don't see that one in the Tech bulletins.

So, the security screen in the Tesla app on my phone still says my phone is disconnected. I still can't see the camera images in sentry mode, and the phone is still grayed out. All I have gotten from even my Service Rep is a description of what I should be seeing...no help in explaining why I'm...

This is my biggest beef with Tesla. I love the car. They are long on features and very short on service. I recently took my Model Y in at 8 AM for a yearly inspection, and when I dropped it off, they told me they would have it done by the end of the day. I asked why it would take that long, and...

I didn't measure the blade. From what Midnight Sun says, these may not be a good solution, anyway.

Thanks. Below freezing temps are rare where I live, but they occasionally get there. It seems, though, that maybe I should just try to figure out how to re-install the OEM blades...Maybe take it in for service...

So, a follow-up. Evannex said that they questioned it at first, too, but they have tested it extensively and gotten good performance. So I'll try it out.

The lower blade in that picture is the OEM blade...the upper one is the Kimblade from Evannex.

I just heard from Evannex...they are saying that the blade they sent me is the correct Manufacturer recommended blade for my car. Can that be? Does the manufacturer actually recommend using a shorter blade than the one they install at the factory?

I just bought replacement wiper blades from Evannex. They are the Kimblades. Evannex sent me the correct driver's side blade, but the passenger side blade was about 2 inches shorter than the OEM blade. So, I pulled the new blade back off the wiper arm, and tried to reinstall the OEM blade. I...

That's not it. Here's the whole story: Ever since I saw the Evannex article on "Darth Vader Mode" I have been trying to get it to work. According to my Tesla dealer, my VIN should have it. So, in the car, I did turn on the mobile app capability under "Safety and Security." However, when I turn...

So, I'm confused as to what is connected and what is not. In my phone app, I can see the controls, I can unlock the car, I can open everything and turn on the climate. However, under "Security," it says my phone is disconnected. I see these videos of people using "Darth Vader Mode" and their...

Cool, thanks!

So I just replaced my 21" Uberturbines with 19-inch wheels and winter tires from Tire Rack. They came with TPM Sensors, and I have been trying to find out how to reset them. Everything I have found on line shows a "TPMS Reset" button in the Service screen. Mine does not have that. It did have a...

Down in Northern Virginia, too, but car works.

Must be down...getting the same error in northern Virginia.

Thanks for that. Will vehicles that did not get it eventually get it, like in a recall? Also, jcanoe - Firesign fan?

So maybe it's not equipped in all vehicles.

I have had the same experience...mine doesn't seem to make noise.

Where do we find it? I downloaded and installed the latest updates for my Android phone and for my Model Y today, but this feature does not show up. Nothing has changed on the car or on the phone. I can turn sentry mode on, and turn it off. On one of the articles I saw today (from Evannex) it...

Where do you go to enable it? I don't see it anywhere.

So we have to wait for notification? I saw the article in Evannex today, and updated my phone (Android) app and my Model Y, but I can't find the option in the Car's Software. As I understand it, there is supposed to be a switch that lets you select remote control from your phone, but I don't see...

By the same logic someone could look at a Tesla supercharger and say "why would you install chargers that no one but one brand of car can use?" - What a great point! Especially since Tesla could make money charging all those other EVs. I think maybe Tesla was betting that they could set the...

Sounds like an Electrify America Station. They had the same configuration at a Sheetz station I visited last weekend. There is an EVGo station near a restauraunt we like...I used to have to use their level 2 charger, but they had several Chademo chargers, and the last time we went, they had put...

Your car should come with a couple of adapters. My Model Y came with a j1772 adapter, which has worked well with most level 2 chargers. It also came with an adapter that allowed me to plug into an extension cord at my brother-in-law's house last weekend. It was very slow, but it worked. I had to...

So, I have a Model Y Performance trim, and I am on my way to have my first (hopefully only) curb rash repaired. I have seen wheel bands/blade kits online. Does anyone have any experience with/recommendations for wheel bands on the Uberturbine wheels? In the future, I am going to avoid parking...

Thanks! That makes the decision easier...

So, I am awaiting delivery, and trying to decide whether to go with the performance trim (my definite preference). The wheels/tires question is the only thing holding me back. I have read this forum, called Michelin, and talked to my Tesla dealer. I told him that I had read (in this forum) about...
