    I remember reading they changed it to make room for the front motor of the AWD model in the works.

    Glove box latch failure

    Just had the exact problem happen today after almost a year of ownership. Came to this forum first and thanks to you guys I fixed it in a minute. Expected nothing less, love it!

    Has anyone received the replacement NEMA 14-50 adapter?

    Just got mine in the mail too. After taking it out of the box I noticed a metallic rattling sound like something loose inside. Called Tesla and confirmed it's not normal and they'd ship another out. Glad I noticed it before plugging it in! Does anyone else with the new adapter have this sound...

    faint high pitch background whine *any any speed* constant sound tied to accelerator

    Yes, that pretty much sums up the case for me. The squeal is very high pitched and annoying once I knew it was there. It's not so much the sound itself as that it cuts in and out constantly during in-town driving and I feel like I need to modulate the throttle to minimize the sound toggling on...

    faint high pitch background whine *any any speed* constant sound tied to accelerator

    Did you ever get to the bottom of this issue? I believe my car may have started the same phenomenon a couple months ago.

    Body Panel Gap and Alignment Issues

    Interesting, it sounds like a squeaky/rusty fan out of balance. Pretty embarrassing for such a quiet car when pulling up to park next to people. It was loud enough that I was actually turning the AC off before getting to the parking area. Hopefully it doesn't come back..

    Body Panel Gap and Alignment Issues

    Got my car back in two days and happy to report that all issues have been resolved. The AC fan noise they couldn't reproduce and may seem to have gone away on its own perhaps due to cooler temperatures lately.

    Body Panel Gap and Alignment Issues

    After Tesla delayed my first appointment at the end of August due to high workload my car is finally in for service. Based on your previous recommendation of carefully listing all the issues I created an epic pdf with the issues numbered and images attached. The service guy was like "wow, thanks...

    Body Panel Gap and Alignment Issues

    Was the work done at the factory or a SC and do you plan to take it back? When did you get your car? mine was delivered within 10 days of ordering at the end of June, I wonder if it was rushed through QA with the big European launch build..

    Two Teslas pic

    Another technique may be to have your son sit in the car and duck behind the steering wheel. At the last seconds of a long exposure turn on the DRLs. They should expose nicely along with the rest of the photo with some experimenting on timing.

    Body Panel Gap and Alignment Issues

    That does look a lot better, mine is not quite as bad so hopefully they can fix it. Is the passenger front door easier to close now? The wife would be very happy if they fixed that! I'll make sure to double check the to-fix list. If the loaner P85 handled better than your 60 I wonder if it was...

    Body Panel Gap and Alignment Issues

    kjl, that is great news to hear! I feel more optimistic about my service appointment now. I'd like to see the before and after photos when you get a chance. How many days did they have your car and what kind of a loaner did you get?

    So Much For Model S's Transported In Only Closed Trucks...

    I work a few mile away from the factory and see sights like this every week on the highway. Seems to be standard operation.

    Tesla fans from China

    Rocky, thanks for dropping by to say hello! That review looks very comprehensive and from I can tell has a lot of info in one place that I've read about either on this forum or in the news, such as the Viper drag race and Honda head-on collision. Be sure to let us know when you get yours!

    Body Panel Gap and Alignment Issues

    I caught a wash mitt on one of the points once, it's annoying and I'm afraid that may make the condition worse. Please let me know the outcome of your appointment. I hear slight rattling from the mid support beam of the pano roof sometimes too.

    Body Panel Gap and Alignment Issues

    Tommy, thanks for the feedback. There's a signature MS at my work and that car doesn't have issues with 2 and 3, they look perfect. I'm not sure if it has other alignment issues different than mine though.

    Body Panel Gap and Alignment Issues

    Hello TMC! I've been reading this forum voraciously and unfortunately the reason that drove me to register and write my first post is not a positive one. I took delivery on 6/29 and after a few weeks with the car I've noticed several panel issues as well as fan noise issue. Issues # 2-5 I've...
