    Ordering problem

    Maybe a problem with the Model 3 order site. Check the model 3 section and see if others are experiencing similar issues.

    My app works perfectly and I always keep it closed. It shows me when I have software update s available. Show he protection has started, etc. But for the past Month or two, every time I close the app, an alert shows that I should leave app running. My phone is iOS. Is there anyway to block...

    FSD for 10k, is it worthwhile

    Is that really 2 words??? JK. I do know Elon said LiDAR was not going to work for autonomous driving.

    Refreshed Model S Front License Plate Holder

    Front plate takes away from the looks of the cat. But I have visited Santa Monica a few times and I receive a ticket from the meter maids every time. I bit the bullet and my car now wears the front license plate

    FSD for 10k, is it worthwhile

    Absolutely NO. Real FSD is a pipe dream for the current cars. I am certain that if FSD becomes a real thing, the hardware will need to be changed or only available on the next gen.

    I have the 19s, thinking about the 21s. Recommend?

    Love the look of the 21s, so that is how I ordered the car. Looks even better in person particularly if you have someone with the stock 19s parked nearby. I live in Los Angeles so there are plenty of the new S’s around. I wish there were better warnings when you get to close to a curb as I...

    Concerned about build quality of Model S 2022 LR

    Have had my S for 10 months and a few thousand miles. I have 0 problems with the vehicle since I received my car 6/30/2021. There things I don’t like about the catrsuch as no stalks but I knew that going in.

    Model S Yoke Horn Confirmed

    Off topic but I received the car 10 months ago June 2021, driven thousands of miles and I really miss having a stalk for the turn signals. I inadvertently hit the turn signals quite often. Maybe it is my fat fingers

    USB music not resuming since MCU2/AP3 upgrade

    USB Device and music not showing on Refreshed MS LR

    The only issue I have with the usb music is that when I leave the car and then return the usb always starts at the beginning of my music. It never plays songs from the spot I was listening to. It is a pia. So now I only use usb music when I want to play an individual album

    Spotify - Buggy/Not Loading?

    I have premium Spotify. For the past couple weeks I need to select something new to play instead of Spotify just starting where I left off. Worked great before. If it keeps happening I will change services. I originally subscribed to Sirius and Spotify but Spotify worked so well through all my...

    "Keep the Tesla app running for the best phonekey experience"

    No real hate. Just annoying. Previously I could close the app, which is how enjoy my computer and iPhone, and I have it set To run in the background which allows complete functionality. Obviously the Tesla app developers seem unaware of this functionality. So no hate. Just an annoying PIA. We...

    "Keep the Tesla app running for the best phonekey experience"

    I never leave the app running on iPhone. Always close it and it works perfectly. Presents door handles. Notifies me when interior is too hot etc. This new persistent message is a PIA. I don’t have an option to turn off the message. So I close the banner after I close the app every time. Only...

    Model S Plaid - 6 Months Later

    Nope. Even 25 years ago driving an ice car, if you were using cruise control and hit the brake to slow for traffic, all you needed to do is hit the resume button and it brought You back up to set speed rather quickly.

    Model S Plaid - 6 Months Later

    After 6 and 1/2 months, my LR is close to perfect. I do not like the following distance when on autopilot. It works ok but when the highway is a little clogged, the car Slows down as it should, but it is too slow to get back to the set speed. Generally it works fine. I do not have the 10,000...

    App notifications stopped

    My notifications work well for charging. But when I have a software update, it only tells me that software is ready to be installed. Never tells me when it is completed unless I open the app and check the status.

    Delivery issues

    Just wait for your car to be ready. Most of us have stories regarding deliveries and then changing dates, etc. It seems that most people here feel it is worth the wait and the terrible customer service. I love my new S LR more than any other car that I have owned. Happy I waited. Still pissed...

    Is getting a refreshed model s in black a bad idea?

    If you love black you need To be prepared to either keep it clean by wiping it down daily or Getting it washed twice per week. My last 5 cars have been black. Love the color. It does take work to keep it looking good. When I was living in New Jersey, during springtime, sometimes I would get car...

    When does the 2022 Plaid Begin Production?

    I am having one of my people research the issue. But for this group, the bottom line is resale will probably be better on a 22 than 21 regardless when that year changes for the car

    2021+ Model S LR Delivery Tracking

    I believe it was 80k plus 21” plus white interior plus black paint plus tax and delivery minus the 2k discount and trade-in. Sorry just didn’t feel like looking through my old Emails. Original order was for pre-refresh 2021 at 70k plus extras. My delivery was supposed to be February. Lol

    2021+ Model S LR Delivery Tracking

    I believe all the preorders received their 2k discount. My delivery got screwed up a couple days before actual delivery and my new car and vin did not show the discount. I called my sa and he told me to just pay it in order to receive my car and they would refund the 2k within a week. I paid...

    I understand this thread is meant to discuss issues with the refreshed S models. But I just want to say. My S LR was delivered EOQ 6/30 when they were supposedly rushing to get deliveries out. My car was delivered and is almost flawless. One piece of rubber that seals the right rear window...

    2021+ Model S Refresh - white interior thread

    I hate to call someone out on an Internet forum, but now that Someone else did, I have to say there were either multiple changes or this is complete bull sugar. I just don’t believe an order from 10/20 is scheduled for 2022.

    2021+ Model S Refresh - white interior thread

    That is absolutely ridiculous. I was furious waiting For my LR. Ordered 12/15/20. Delivered EOQ June. I think I would have cancelled. Your patience Is admirable but Tesla really sucks when it Comes to deliveries. Too many lies And bs.

    How NOT to Sell a Luxury Car

    To Plaid, or not to Plaid....that's a good question!

    I love my LR. First EV for me. I love the OTA updates. I love the speed. I love the looks. I was very torn over which model to order. I have had many cars and most of them have been very fast and luxurious. About 7 years ago I bought a SL 550 in the same colors as my LR. Except the white...

    The Yoke Experience

    I believe the only reason for the yoke was that Elon thought it was cool. I am used to mine but it was unnecessary. I like the auto shift (reverse or forward) but I would have preferred a stalk for turn signals.
