Online and running. Sonic, Holiday Inn Express are adjacent to it.

Did the airbags deploy? If so, I'd lean to yes without any more info.

Any updates @RL-TheDude

Spoke with property management and they were not sure either way. Did note that they did not issue parking citations (for L2) if people were in their cars. Those signs were there before and I doubt the SC spots will remain valet. Let’s see what the final version looks like but my guess is...

Good spot and happily recommend the Roasted Rooster; not a chain, locally owned, good food/coffee/loose leaf tea. Menu pics below.

First off sorry to hear about the battery issues, but if was destined to fail, at least it failed now under warranty coverage. If doable you may want to go by your SC, let the rep know - in person - about your concern, and ask him/her to document the ticket (again in person). From a logistical...

...or casinos.

Urban SC’ers are a partial answer here. Need about 1h 40m from sun 5% → 100%; good amount of time for a decent meal/gym visit.

Is this location still active? Not seeing it in navigation. Found it; had to select the two lighting option flr chargers.

Want to highlight this as my S had similar issues (the creak coming from the upper control arm). Excellent common sense DIY solution.

3rd row vents are weak at best. While this is not a 'fix', I've been please with these: Windshield Sun Shades, Car Window Shades and Car Window Covers by HeatShield: The Original Windshield Sun Shade It does not improve the AC airflow, but it does reduce the thermal load going into the car...

I'm gonna guess "What is 2023 Model S LR Red / Cream / 21's (delivered on 12.31.22) Round Steering Wheel for $300, Alex." Sorry to hear about this and as an owner of a 2023 X LR, I'm going to assume I'm also endowed with the same part. Bought an S in 2017 and consider myself moderately active...

I can only speak for myself but would agree with this. I think where we may disagree (?) is the proposed solution, or at least the next logical step in finding a solution. As I understand it Tesla did ultimately refund you for their error. Good on Tesla, but this does not excuse the error...

The three years of FUSC is worth more than price discount for some at current energy prices. The situation only improves if energy costs inflate up. No issues for me at all for the price drop considering the Q2 3y promo.

Swung by earlier today; no observable progress

In this case it seems like a software glitch? That is to say your car was charging and accruing idle fees concurrently. Did you report the issue to Tesla, and if so, did they do any follow up? Do you recall if there was a technical issue here triggering the SC to stop or was it the 'we've set...

@Jaybird - can you help me understand the details here? Not saying it's a good/bad idea, just trying to wrap my head around how often such events may occur and the range of idle fees charged.

No relevant info to share about the S but would the X make sense after the recent price drop?

I wonder if TSLA is getting into the real estate game here where they are opting to own the land (vs leasing and/or setting up some agreement with the owner) as it looks like there's not really a formal host there.

Excellent write up. Most informative.

@ucmndd - I thought the first 100's delivered in mid 2017? Distinctly remember the three choices circa Q3 2016 for the S were: 60 (locked 70/75 pack) 75 90 Also recall much chatter about trying to get a unicorn where the car had FUSC but delivered with a 100 pack in 2017. @MdlSP100D'16 - you...

Casino's need a captive audience over time. As @Big Earl notes: ...I don't know if the average SC of ~20m is really enough (assuming one is not spending ~1h to do a sub 5% → 100% V3 charge). Now if you're looking at something like Urban SCers - or perhaps "discount/free V3" SCers - who max out...

Interesting; I’ve seen this sentiment expressed multiple times. One thing I recall from AP1 was the preference to use the car in front as a marker to follow (the car avatar in front of you would turn blue) vs using the lanes. I can’t recall any instance of AP4 using the car in front as a guide...

You're the head of the household. No approval is needed. ...says a surprisingly single Houstonian...happily from his Model X...

Agree. SCing to 100% does not make sense unless you’ve got an immediate need. Expect 1h40m to go from 5% → 100% in a S75. Discovered this to NOT be the case. Being above 55%, particularly in hot climates, stresses the battery. See this for more info: Do lower-power Supercharger locations reduce...

Time is money. I’m not disagreeing with your points about L2 but will note “Preferences are optional and subject to constraints, whereas constraints are neither optional nor subject to preference”. Over 7.3k miles I only had one L2 charge; it was at a Hyatt near ORD where the hotel installed...

The poll choices are not the best. A simple binary almost always can at times lack the precision to sus out nuances IMHO. With 10 choices you can almost replicate a 3x3 matrix - for this thread something like: I’ve [have owned/have not owned but driven with/have not owned nor driven with] an...

If you could go for any option, I’d go for an early build 2017 S75D or 2017 S100D. The 75 will be cheaper, I assume, than the 100 and be fine for ATL daily driving. There’s also a seat change in there too; I think Jan 2017 and on have the current - or at least the immediate predecessor to the...

One trick you can do at some SC’ers - including Clayton - is park ‘horizontally‘ (along side) instead of ‘vertically’ (pulling in) for stall(s) on the outside. At Clayton this means backing up to the first post (the post closest to the entrance to the supermarket and the only bay this logically...

Recently completed ~7.3k mile road-trip, albeit in an X. Average efficiency clocked in at 326Wh/mile. Supercharged ~2,485 kWh with an average cost of $0.37 per TeslaFi's calculation of cost (car currently has a flavor of FUSC so Tesla currently invoices $0.00 for SC usage). So per the OP of...

Early build 2017 S's are a bit of a sweetspot, if you can find one well maintained. Have HW2 - upgradeable to HW3 in theory - as well as MCU1 → 2, if so desired, and potentially FUSC as well. But more to the point, starting JAN 2017 (late 2016?) Tesla was on the 3rd major IIRC suspension...

I believe the answer is this: you will have immediate access to the FSD beta IF the current firmware on your new car with hardware suite 4.0 supports it. So perhaps it is better to think, "transferring my current FSD license to a new Tesla with HW 4.0 will give me immediate access to the...

I wonder if there’s a non-Tesla issue here (e.g. the local utility cannot yet support the electrical draw on Tesla’s proposed site) as it seems like the logical place to put in a SC to offer relief to Wickenburg.

@highkmcar - entire situation is strange. As presented, I can't ID anything to why TSLA would move to void your warranty. If you feel comfortable sharing, can you post any correspondence you've had with Tesla on the issues (estimates, in-app chats, etc.)? Might help the hive mind here lock in...

Apologies for the bump - don't think I can edit my OP to include these links. Similar issues cropping up in the MX forum. https://teslamotorsclub.com/tmc/threads/catastrophic-ac-failure.308135/ https://teslamotorsclub.com/tmc/threads/ac-problems-and-outrageous-billing-attempts-by-tesla.292223/...

The truth? We humans possess a chronic blind spot is failing to understand the null which leads us to (re)commit the age old sin of bias confirmation, presumably in order to protect the various - and perhaps at times noble - lies/untruths which serve as the 'moral' bedrock for our society. The...

While I do not know if this is true one way or the other I will note the following: for my S I had the compressor replaced three times (that is I am on my 4th compressor) and only recently, 2022 IIRC?, did they add the system flush to ensure no metal debris or filings were present inside the...

@Sparky1 Is there a link to this location? Not seeing any reference on supercharge.info

Just caught they’ve got a 48 stall install going in on 215. Curious to see how well this ameliorates demand once online. https://teslamotorsclub.com/tmc/threads/supercharger-spring-valley-nv-arroyo-market-square-48-stalls-in-review.299359/

Glad to see a 40+ option going in. Setting as CA (not familiar with the market / charging dynamics there), NV, particularly LAS, seems the local where demand has most overwhelmed Tesla’s SC supply. About one a quarter or so I’m through on a road trip and was shocked to see the surge pricing...

…and at what cost / added complexity? It’s one thing to add to a new build project. It’s quite another to retrofit. And that’s just the physical side to say nothing of the servicing side.

Airports strike me as a prime candidate for this. Quantity of plugs over quickness of charge...i.e. multiple L1 options over fewer L2 ones. Why would a low margin business like a grocer opt to put in an extra expense? To drive business to their stores? Their already full stores? You can kinda...

The six seater option trades utility for comfort. Disappointing Tesla does not offer the Plaid in a 5/7 (or even 4 seater...) config, but there it is. If your goal is to sleep in the X (more on this in a second) comfortably, the Plaid's off the table. If you're willing to deal with a camper...

Appears this user had a similar issue: Error GTW-w021

With the NACS announcements from other manufacturers I’d think the writings on the wall not only for new installs of urban SCers but existing sites as well. I’m a fan of them - especially when I want to do something else like grab lunch - but struggle to articulate a compelling reason for Tesla...

Fair. One thing I'd be pleased to see is non-Tesla servicing options hit the market en mass, at least for the simple to moderate stuff (e.g. suspension, HVAC, etc.) Competition is healthy and offers a good check on players to keep them in line with the market vs. gouging. Off topic personal...

@TacoGuy - think this is a yes/no here. Generally most people like certainty, over variability and a known over an unknown. Consider the concept of Risk Aversion, the Ellsberg Paradox, Allais Paradox, and/or any other data showing how, on average, we'll pay a premium (or accept a reduction in...

FWIW my comprehensive claims are specifically not factored into my driving performance. Suggest one follow up with their agent to suss out the nuances here but in a general sense I've understood comprehensive claims to be viewed differently than claims run through a collision policy...
