Well, here it is 4 months later and still no parking assist. Maybe all the young hard-core engineers at HQ should stop working on games, and work on actually useful features instead?

Although the fact that this Lucid requires two stalls to charge (because the charge port is on the right side), it doesn't really matter when he's the only customer here at night in Brewster, NY, a New York City exurb. But once the word gets out, it's a very different story in this video as the...

I have a 2023 MYLR and, as we all know. the center console USB ports have no data capability. But I just received this 3 Port USB HUB with DashCam Reader from Jowua. It goes in the glove box and I plugged both my music USB key and my dashcam disk into two of the 3 USB-A ports. It worked...

Yes, I had the same experience last November even though I have a substantial retirement fund invested at Chase. I ended up going with Tenet Energy based on a presentation they made to the Tesla Owners of New York: Since I see you're also from New York, I know they do business here. I'm not...

I just dropped off the leased Tesla with the plates on. The folks at the service center (Mt. Kisco) physically transferred the plates to the new car--I didn't even need to use the screwdriver I'd brought along. They gave me a temporary registration sticker with the plates correctly listed. The...

I had this situation and it all worked out really well. My lease was up on Dec. 3 and the delivery of my new MYLR, ordered months before, was finally scheduled for Nov. 22. I requested to turn in the lease on Nov. 22, a bit early, and was given permission, no penalty. Then on Nov. 22 morning...

A couple of comments. You can take Amtrak from Buffalo, Rochester, Utica, Albany, etc. down to Croton-Harmon, then an Uber or Lyft to Mt. Kisco. Cheaper than driving a rental down and spending the night in a motel. The real problem here is that NY law prohibits direct manufacturer-to-consumer...

Now we understand why the angry Tesla owners were protesting in China as we've recently seen.

Yes, me too. An MYLR delivery Nov. 22 and still on 2022.40.100.

I just picked up a 2023 MYLR in late November, Fremont build, and the Tesla shop website now tells me that their mud flaps are not compatible with my vehicle. So maybe they've been reconfigured to fit only Austin-built cars?

I have just used them for a Nov. 22 delivery. It worked out well. The current rate is 4.75% or 4.5% with autopay.

No, not for me. My car delivered on Nov. 22 has neither USS sensors nor equivalent vision capability (2022.40.100). I'm trying to be super cautious pulling in to curbs. Fingers crossed!

Agree. And they need to be visible, too, maybe with bigger or selectable font size.

My previous Model Y was a November 2020 build, labeled as a 2021 model. I haven't driven the new one much yet, but at least one passenger says the suspension feels "less sporty." She thinks it's better. As a side note, the sticker says the date of manufacture was November 20, 2022 (Fremont...

I had leased the Model Y LR with a lease-end date of Dec. 3, 2022. I would have been willing to buy out or extend the lease, but that is not currently permitted. Seeing the order lead times, I ordered a new identical car (except it now has a heated steering wheel! :)) on May 1st. Lots of...

Mine scheduled for delivery on Nov. 22 is labeled as a 2023 model. (From Fremont factory.)

Delivery date is now confirmed for Nov. 22, beating the window of Nov. 26 to Dec. 5.

I ordered the MYLR with standard wheels, black interior, and tow hitch on May 1st of this year. Recently got a new window of Nov. 26 to Dec. 5, and then yesterday I received a text message that my Model Y has just departed the factory and is in transit to my delivery center (Mt. Kisco, NY). And...

We also have National Grid here in upstate NY, but I haven't received any such invitation. I'm curious if any other NY customers have. Thanks.

Yes, agree. Needing to keep jiggling the steering wheel and keep one's foot poised over the accelerator to tap out of phantom braking makes the whole driving experience not quite as stress-free as some claim.

Same for me. I have a late '20 YLR. It does have radar, though I don't suppose it is actually used with current software releases. And yes, I do regularly get phantom braking.

Thanks for the update. Hope it's still as easy as that!

I have a leased MYLR whose lease ends this coming December. At that time. I would like to purchase outright a new MYLR to take advantage of all the many incremental improvements. My ideal scenario is this: In December I drive to the service center to turn in my leased car, then take delivery...

I spend about half of my time in the Mohawk Valley in New York which is not quite as cold as Minestora (but has more snow). I'm in an apartment and park outside in an area with no electric outlet, not even 120V, so Supercharging is my refueling of choice. Since I'm retired, I don't drive most...

Another option is to use a car cover. Since I'm retired and often go several days without driving, this works for me. But I can imagine that if you had to put on and take off the car cover every day, it could quickly become a nuisance.

Although not all the legislative details are worked out, this framework supposedly has the support of all 50 Senators that are Dems (or caucus with them). This provides a degree of optimism that it may actually pass through reconciliation, and may also get support from house progressives. Hopeful!

Current framework details released this morning:. EV credit remains. https://www.whitehouse.gov/briefing-room/statements-releases/2021/10/28/president-biden-announces-the-build-back-better-framework/

I spend most of my time in Central New York where I park my model Y outdoors in a parking lot with no electric outlet near. The other replies have been good: no real problems. But one thing not mentioned so far is the possibility that door handles will freeze up if you get an icy snow/rain...

Yes, thanks for the correction. Both on the far eastern side, but not nothing!

Is there a way to request that Tesla consider a region for supercharger installation? In searching this forum, I can't seem to find any current suggestions, except to apply to host a supercharger, which is not my case. In my particular example, the Adirondack Mountains in New York are a...

If only I had received the mini tag, What I actually got was the huge tag meant to be attached to the front license plate holder, but it didn't really fit, so I've attached it instead to the passenger side sun visor with rubber bands. Ugly, but works.

Well, I'm still only on 4.18.2. Wonder if I will have to go through all the intermediate updates before I get to the latest?

I was successful in getting a NY Green Pass for my model Y. In NY, you need to mail (yes, snail-mail) an application together with a copy of the registration. In my accompanying letter I mentioned that although the site did not list the model Y, the closest model listed there was the model 3. A...

Here in New York State my Model Y updates just fine over a cellular connection, no WiFi needed. This is with the included 1-year premium connectivity. Since I can arrange for it to happen overnight, I don't care if it's a bit slow. Of course, you *do* need a cellular signal.

So use regenerative braking--spare the calipers!

Yes, I'm in the same boat. Yes, you can make it point at any address, but it would be nice to be able to give it a personal label.

With a previous car, I had this problem and solved it by lying the garbage cans on their sides with the back seat down, with lids that locked in place (important!). Where I live now with my Model Y, I'm just a short driveway away from curbside pickup, so the problem's solved in another way.

This may not qualify as "smooth" but using the turn signal will cancel autosteer but leave cruise control in force.

Actually, ABRP already has an option for "bikes on back."

I'll probably be in Oneonta sometime next week for half a day, maybe April 22. (Live in the Village of Clinton, near Utica.) Model Y LR.

Just scotch tape a square of cardboard over the lower left of the screen? ("Solution" adapted from the perpetually blinking 12:00 on my 1990's VCR.)

Twice.

I have an Android Pixel 4 phone (now superseded by Pixel 5 models) that has worked flawlessly with my Tesla MY. I've never had to turn Bluetooth off/on to get it to work. Also, FWIW, the wireless charging works very nicely.

When a previous ICE car, parked in the garage, had this problem, I was told that mothballs were effective. Tended to keep people as well as mice out of the garage!

You're right. It all eventually worked out.

Yes, I've wondered about this as well. As changes are introduced over time in both hardware and software, neither your original manual nor the current online one is entirely accurate. Your original manual is presumably accurate about the hardware you have, but not totally accurate in describing...

I mailed my application for a NY Green E-Zpass on January 31. In the letter I said that it was for a Model Y, even though this model was not listed on the state website. Yesterday I received a new, license-plate mount tag (elapsed time 7 weeks), though the state still does not list the Model Y...

You can report a location error with Google Maps as well. They will probably take some time to process the report and verify that it's reasonable, but it does eventually work in my experience. Search for your address, and then select "Suggest an edit..." from the menu.

So my cold-weather update is scheduled to install early tomorrow morning, 2 days before spring. Marvelous timing!

Does anyone here have experience with the use of hood loops to tie down the front of a kayak or canoe, like these? Seattle Sports Quick Loops - Pair | REI Co-op I used loops like this with my previous car, but I wonder if the frunk lid is robust enough for these?
