    Charge port automatically opening

    I noticed this started happening this week.

    Loud buzzing from frunk

    This sounds like what I am experiencing with my Model 3. I don't recall hearing this last summer when we first got the car. You don't notice it inside the car but you can hear it from outside the car. You hear the normal "Whoosh" sound of the AC but underneath it is a like a whining/buzzing...

    Driver's seat side panel separation

    This just happened on our M3LR and we have a service request scheduled. Unbelievable...this looks like a crappy design. I have never seen anything like this happen in a car -at least not one at this price point.

    Range-Loss Related to Heat?

    I don't know what happened but in the last couple weeks or so, there seem to be serious battery range loss. We always charge to 80% at home and lately it seems to really be going down quickly and the car is barely 1 year old. Just now, from doing errands (local groceries, shopping, post office...

    Dashcam Unavailable Check USB

    You could try putting in a service request about it and see if they will push the update

    Dashcam Unavailable Check USB

    This week my wife put in a service request again to fix the problem. Her intent was really to see if they would just push the 2022.16.X update. Sure enough, within an hour or two of her request, the update becomes available for the Model 3. So far it's been 2 days of no issues.

    Dashcam Unavailable Check USB

    Tesla tech informed me it might be fixed with 2022.16 but that would be cool if 12.3.12 does

    Dashcam Unavailable Check USB

    That's how it's been for me also if I re-seat the USB and then try to view clips.

    Dashcam Unavailable Check USB

    This is what I am doing if -I remember. It's unpredictable. Even today the car showed the red x over the camera but there still sentry events and dash cam recorded my wife's drive home from work.

    Dashcam Unavailable Check USB

    No. Don't get a new drive, don't waste your time formatting, and don't reboot. I have not had any of these methods work for me reliably or seen a post saying the same. The software is losing "connection" to the USB drive. In PC terms, it would be like a USB device going to sleep and not waking...

    Dashcam Unavailable Check USB

    When my wife told me on Thurs/Fri that the error message was back again I didn't bother doing anything -didn't reboot, didn't remove/reseat the drive. This morning it was working again and recorded her drive in the morning, along with some sentry events.

    Dashcam Unavailable Check USB

    After a few days of rock solid performance but I saw the red X again today along with the "check USB message". Just like everyone else rebooting cleared it. Yeah this is software bug. I noticed sentry events record though.

    Dashcam Unavailable Check USB

    Complete rubbish. No matter what USB drive or SD+adapter you use, you'll most likely get the same problem. Even prior to 2022.12.3.1 I was having random moments where dashcam wasn't writing. I thought I had it resolved by using a max endurance SD card. This worked well for awhile (and allows USB...

    Dashcam Unavailable Check USB

    Update: informed by a helpful Tesla POC that tesla engineers/technicians are aware of the issue. There should be a dot release that would address this issue but at the moment, there is no ETA. Also, last night after I installed 12.3.2 (it was pushed to the car by Tesla), I went to the car and...

    Dashcam Unavailable Check USB

    Scheduled a service appt but got a call from Tesla. After I explained the situation, they are going to push 12.3.2 to see if it fixes. I mentioned that someone on here had 12.3.2 but still had the problem. If this update doesn't resolve the issue (I don't expect it to, since it didn't for...

    Dashcam Unavailable Check USB

    This looks like a software problem. I didn't get this issue until 2 days ago after the 2022.12.3.1 update.

    Dashcam Viewer Unavailable

    I am experiencing the same thing. I thought it was the SD card+reader so I put back in the original Tesla (Samsung) USB stick and formatted it. Today my wife tells me she sees the same thing.

    2022.12.x

    -The visual presentation of seat warmers was better pre-V11, where you clicked on a visual representation of all 4 seats. -The different icons styles for defrosters, wipers, seat warmers suggest a disregard for details and polish -In the model 3, there's enough real estate for this so why not...

    First Service call...Dashcam/USB

    I have switched over from Samsung usb stick (that is the same that Tesla rebranded) to an adapter plus SD. No difference: I am still getting moments where dashcam doesn't show the video from the last 60 mins yet I see sentry events video from that day. Dashcam is a great idea suffering from a...

    What did you name your Tesla?

    Wanted to name it Artemis The Hunter...Dunno why but I like name. Too bad the wifey (it's really her car) didn't care for it. :)

    Scary near crash with a big truck today. Disappointed that teslacam did not record the event 😕

    Which ones would you recommend, especially for the usb A adapter? The rocketek one some have mentioned before gets really HOT.

    Scary near crash with a big truck today. Disappointed that teslacam did not record the event 😕

    Tesla is more than happy working to tech a computer to drive like a pre-teen than having solid implementations of a good idea like built-in dashcam (or handling USB music 😉 )

    2022.4.5

    I am surprised by how many places i've worked that "do software development" that don't use any automated testing.

    Occluded Camera Notifications

    My wife said she got notifications about the pillar camera the other a couple days ago but the cameras were clean. Not sure if it was from glare or what but don't recall seeing those alerts before that. No FSD on our car.

    Sentry Camera Activation

    It's not clear what you're asking. Sentry Mode can be turned on or off from the app. Once Sentry Mode is turned on you can then use "View Live Camera" to view the cameras. However, the cell signal at the car's location needs to be strong enough.

    USB Music - cover art

    Same here. I played two different songs and the album art changed. In the Album view, songs seem to be sorted by the Artist tag and not the Album Artist tag. In the Folder view songs definitely go by file name. I wish the album view played songs by the Track tag -that would make more sense.

    V11 quick controls toggle?

    I'm with you on this one. The starting point for the swipe had to be just right otherwise it didn't trigger. For something like that it's better to have it accessible from the menu.

    V11 questions

    From my POV, the cards in the visualizations area, was not discoverable whatsoever -unless you're already in the know ...or you read the manual and who does that? :-) The interface looks like disjointed and busy.

    V11 questions

    This crap looks like it was designed by the same people who went hogwild when and fly-out menus became a thing for web pages. Everyone has different things they want to use with one click so making giving more options from the quick launcher would have been the better choice.

    Hit and run caught on cameras...Help identify blurry license plate

    That's complete BS if their system can't do that. A plate number is just a string and there other attributes that could be used such as the make, model, and possible colour.

    At the end of the day, as nice as it is, it's still just a bloody car.

    Best Tire Inflator Help Needed

    I watched the Project Farm review video and another one and, despite the high price, I opted for the DeWalt. The pressure sensor looked accurate, looks well-built, and has a few power options -I think it should have come with the A/C cord though instead of that being another separate purchase...

    cable theft

    So if the key/phone is left in the car the car won't lock? We had an odd thing happen but we were in our garage at the time. My wife came home, opened the trunk (boot :-) ) for unloading then shut the driver's side door; however, her phone was still in the car. While unloading the trunk the...

    MP3 broke down on drive home from picking it up

    That's great news. For a brand new car couldn't they have caught such a imminent failure prior to delivery? Or due to volume and numbers, they don't?
