    MX17 - FalconWing Door weather stripping deteriorating - Not covered by Warranty

    What engineer in his right mind would integrate a rubber seal into glass? I have both of mine disintegrating...2017 X 90D....was quoted 2500 for each door in Arizona...are you kidding me?..

    Rubber seal/flashing between falcon wing doors and roof.

    Did you ever find another solution or seal manufacturer that can solve his issue? I have a 2017 and have the same issue! 2.5k is way too steep…the glass doesn’t get manufactured with the rubber on it…there MUST be a way to detach it and replace it with a new surround instead of changing the...

    It was done in Phoenix/Tempe...we only have three service centers here.

    AC problems and outrageous billing attempts by TESLA

    Yes...the second failure started with the compressor. Same symptoms, same diagnosis as now.

    AC problems and outrageous billing attempts by TESLA

    Thank you for your response. I had my first BMW in 1970, then a Mercedes in 1976, then another BMW in 1986, a Pontiac in 1988, a Nissan in 2000, another Nissan in 2006, a Buick Enclave in 2012, a BMW electric in 2016 and finally a Tesla in 2017. I have NEVER...NEVER seen hourly rates over 120...

    AC problems and outrageous billing attempts by TESLA

    Dear moderator: You are absolutely right: I was SCREAMING at TESLA and the treatment that I've received. Going to another service center to get a different opinion and being told: that's not our problem...you've gotta go to the service center that performed the repair in the first place...

    AC problems and outrageous billing attempts by TESLA

    Thank you for answering...yes...the warranty period is 12K miles or 12 months. However - we have a discrepancy what warranty means. To me, warranty means that if an item fails and causes subsequent damage or fluid loss, it should be covered. For Tesla it seems that only the hardware is under...

    AC problems and outrageous billing attempts by TESLA

    Moderator note: This post (plus one reply to it) was merged from a different thread. I need some advice from any/all of you TESLA owners. I have a 2016 model X and was charged $1850.00 for a AC replacement in 9/2022, because the AC was blowing hot air. No DC charging reduced warning sign...

    How's Your AC Holding Up? My Compressor's Loud, Failed 3 Times in 3 Years, and Struggles to Cool. Also "same" repair jumped from $1,195 → $2,030.

    Very interesting story. I think we should form a committee and get to the bottom of this. I have a 2016 model X and was charged 1850 for a AC replacement in 9/2022, because the AC was blowing hot air. No DC charging reduced warning sign, nothing. 5 months and 5K miles later, the AC is...

    AC compressor & Receiver dryer/desiccant

    The question is...where do I go from here? Never had that much trouble with a car from BMW to Lambo...never!

    AC compressor & Receiver dryer/desiccant

    Original work was done in Tempe...but they wrote the estimate, having my service record in their data base or even on the screen at the same time. What bugs me the most is a compressor is a compressor and dryer, desiccant and flush s what it says it is...how can the parts be different? I can't...

    AC compressor & Receiver dryer/desiccant

    That's my opinion too. However..I went to a different TESLA service outlet yesterday and they basically said, I have to go back to the original place of repair, it's not their problem. I had all my receipts plus the new estimate with me and was told that the new estimate may say compressor...

    AC compressor & Receiver dryer/desiccant

    I drove 4K miles since the AC repair which happened 5 months ago. I went to a TESLA service center today and they said I should go back to the place that originally performed the service....basically; "It's not our problem". They gave me a phone number but that was only the auto-answer system...

    AC compressor & Receiver dryer/desiccant

    Correction: TESLA DID actually replace the compressor, dryer and desiccant during the service. However...the question remains: it's only been 5 months...why do I have to pay for it again?

    AC problems and outrageous billing attempts by TESLA

    Got a 2016 Model X 90D. I had my compressor replaced in August of 2022. It looks like TESLA service center did replace compressor, dryer and desiccant at the time...also did a "flush" as recommended in their maintenance. The bill was 1800+. It's January 2023 now and my AC went down again. They...

    AC compressor & Receiver dryer/desiccant

    Got a 2016 Model X 90D. I had my compressor replaced in August of 2022. It looks like TESLA service center did NOT replace dryer and desiccant at the time. The bill was 1800+. It's January 2023 now and my AC went down again. They will comp the new compressor, but my bill is still almost 1400...

    Dashcam Viewer Comments/Questions

    …excellent! I second that!!!

    Dashcam USB recording no longer continuous?

    256GB should be plenty…especially when TESLADRIVE records I’m M4v format…that drive should last for 8 hrs of uninterrupted recording! I have the same drive, but my model X records a new clip every 60 seconds…I have thousands of those when I do a trip…very time consuming to view them all 😂

    Fender trim came off going through puddle

    Your fender flare trim is between 200 and 300 Dollars...used on e-bay. The labor is about the same. You're looking at roughly 600 Dollars if nothing else, like a sensor needs replacing.

    MCU1 to MCU2 written promissory note

    MY MCU1 on a 2017 model x had a catastrophic failure and went dark. The Tesla shop wanted to get me on the road asap and offered me a refurbished MCU1, with a written promise in my Tesla notes plus an e-mail, to credit me the MCU1 cost towards a MCU2 cost, which left me with about 275 Dollars...
