    Do these sensors work at night?

    Thanks to all who contributed, I found this very informative. I was laboring under some misconceptions, like the sensors that were used. In 2021 when the car was delivered, I thought it had some kind of Radar looking forward. I know that they changed that later but was not aware of how that...

    Do these sensors work at night?

    Seems like a silly question, right! Well not really, since I nearly had a full grown Deer as a Fronk Ornament! Just after dark on a Sunday evening, I was driving down Highway 308 toward Keyport Washington. All of a sudden I see a full grown Deer in the headlights directly in front of me! I...

    Sometimes it’s possessed! [auto wipers without rain / side camera blocked message]

    Today we decided to take a 50 mile jaunt to a small town out on the Olympic Peninsula. The sky was cloudy but there was no participation whatsoever. I engaged the cruise control and the windshield wipers came on. Again, there was no rain in sight. I tried to turn the wipers off it would not...

    Can't stay connected to Wall Connector

    Your wall connector has a GFI built into it. If it senses a ground fault it will do it’s thing and disconnect. I had this problem and Tesla sent me another wall connector. I had the same problem. I connected to another 220 volt source and it charged just fine. After a bit of trouble...

    GPS in Heads Up Mode

    Doesn’t work while navigating a route.

    Tire Rotation, vague instructions.

    Is it simply front to rear or is it left front to right rear.? The instructions are vague an don’t really spell it out. Are there any tire shops (Kitsap area) that are knowledgeable in this area? We are at 10 k miles so it’s probably time. Thanks

    GPS in Heads Up Mode

    I like the GPS in our Model Y however when we are navigating a route it goes out of the Heads Up mode. Is there any way of setting it to remain in Heads Up? Thanks

    Stuck in Chill mode!

    Got it fixed! Contacted the support folks an they basically helped me remove my head from between my buttocks! I had to take the car out of the speed limited mode. To do this I had to log in with my credentials. Once I did that the Standard mode was now available.

    Stuck in Chill mode!

    Recently I began seeing a notification telling me that I was limited to 85 mph. Thinking that may be coupled to the fact that I was in Chill Mode I tried to change that. I was disappointed to find that I no longer had the opportunity to change modes, they simply were no longer highlighted...

    How do you Store favorites in GPS (Model Y).

    I have tried to store a destination into “Favorites “ in our GPS. I can’t seem to get there. Anyone got any ideas? Thanks

    Washington State Super Charger Needed how do you ask for one?

    Thanks for the information. I have just returned from the Wall Mart store in Poulsbo. A new Electrify America Charger has just went on line in that location. This should be helpful for folks coming off the Peninsula heading south.

    Washington State Super Charger Needed how do you ask for one?

    I was hoping that a Supercharger would be installed at the Naval Undersea Museum at Keyport Washington. It is a short drive from Highway 3. It would offer something to do while charging and be available to folks commuting to the Naval Station there.

    What is the Status of the Supercharger in Aberdeen Washington? It no longer shows up on the map!

    Thanks for your assistance. We were in the area and took advantage of the Supercharger there. It was in good shape and we were able to have a great breakfast at Billy’s which is a short walk from the charger.

    What is the Status of the Supercharger in Aberdeen Washington? It no longer shows up on the map!

    At one time there was a Supercharger shown in Aberdeen Washington. Recently I noticed it is no longer shown on the map, is it off line? I am curious since we like to go to the Ocean from Poulsbo and there are no Superchargers in Ocean Shores. In fact there is a gap in the coverage for that area.

    What is the Status of the Tacoma site? Not looking forward to going back to Lynnwood anytime soon. Getting there from Poulsbo is easy, getting back from there, not so much!

    Tesla Home Wall Connector - Need Help

    Tesla has a group of folks that specialize in dealing with home chargers. Their number is 877 961 7652. If you call that number and they don’t answer right away then you can request a call back. They should be able to help you. They walked me through the process and saved me a lot of trouble.

    EV call home!

    When we first got our Tesla Model Y, I could make a call by simply pressing a button and telling it who to call. Recently it began asking me for a password! Who’s password and why is this a new requirement. If I take my smart phone out and initiate the call then I can complete the call no...

    Blue Model Y waiting room

    I am still amazed that we got our Blue Model Y so quickly. I ordered it on Thursday and picked it up the following Tuesday. Now I am hearing that cars ordered today may be delivered in December.

    It Rains up here in Washington, HELLO!

    Recently we took a drive in out Model Y. It was a 45 mile jaunt from Bremerton to Tacoma. It just happened to be the first rainy day in months. Just about the time we reached the Tacoma Narrows Bridge wired things began to happen. The display began to shoyellow and red lines indicating some...

    premium connectivity required for voice commands?

    We had a similar experience. Just outside Belfair Washington there is a dead zone for cellular reception. Once we entered that area voice recognition stopped working. Once we left that area it returned. This leads me to believe that voice recognition is processed in a server located on line...

    premium connectivity required for voice commands?

    I had the same issue. Just outside of Belfair Washing I lost cell service. The little antenna on the display turned gray and had a line through it. I assumed that meant we lost coverage, at the same time I noticed that the car would no longer respond to voice commands. Five miles down the...
