    Tesla is an AWFUL software company

    Just noticed Tesla removed the option to disable in V11. Anyway, this seems to be happening only to you. My music app is always the ones I used last time, never randomly to tidal. Perhaps a bug, reset. Weird to me, because I never experienced accidental hits. But I don't see how you hit random...

    Tesla is an AWFUL software company

    Damn it just turn off the Tidal if you don't have account. You might have opened once, and the car thinks that is your default media app. I hate this too. They should have basic commands available offline. That'll make it faster and always available. Perhaps don't do it!! It's not hard not to...

    Tesla is an AWFUL software company

    I agree that they take lot of things for granted and don't put in much effort fixing broken things, especially in software area. But you need to realize that even the so called 'top-notch' iphones crash. I am not saying Tesla is doing great in software, just not awful as claimed by OP.

    What would you add to your Tesla M3/MY screen?

    Carplay or android auto is never coming to Tesla. It is better we all realize that and stop dreaming. Tesla is a tech company. Apple is a direct competitor to Tesla, more now with their car development in full swing. iPhone had lot of limitation from its inception; every owner complained but...

    What to do when battery is about to die in the middle of nowhere?!

    Thanks for the tip. I'd really doubt any truck going on that way and not sure if I'd be comfortable driving behind a truck :D (irrespective of what the science has to say about drag). but I'll slow down!

    What to do when battery is about to die in the middle of nowhere?!

    Thanks for the tips. I guess I should have included few more details. Yes there are few other charge points and other chargers like 30 miles from the location. But it is slow and would take few hours to get charged to a reasonable level. And I am going with a group and don't want to fall behind...

    What to do when battery is about to die in the middle of nowhere?!

    Hi everyone! I am planning to go camping soon in VA. The place is probably a worst possible location; the nearest supercharger is 100 mile away. Note, I will be camping out for 2 days. I might be car camping one night (so need to consider energy for climate controller as well). So back and...

    SR/SR+ (Model 3 RWD) Waiting Room

    I feel like I owe you my timeline. And also for those who are obsessive like me and tracking every stage 🙃 8/5 VIN received 8/9 Tesla texted to schedule the delivery and emailed the same within an hour. Picked 8/19 (earliest available). By default it was set to home delivery even though opted...

    SR/SR+ (Model 3 RWD) Waiting Room

    Wait is over!!!! It was bit dusty, other than I did not notice any obvious defects. Panel gaps were similar to the car sitting next to mine. So even if it was bad, there was at least a consistency 😅 I did notice small black stripe below drivers door panel which I could not clean (seems like...

    bro you're a genius. i was meaning to do that with model y std. but they took it out of market so quickly 😭 . this might the reason why tesla is holding off your edd to make you buy from inventory idk lol

    Thanks, sure will do. My appt is Saturday 9am to 6pm. But unlike last time, the agreement was not made ready exactly 24 hrs prior to appt time and still waiting to see if there is that automated confirmation call. Last time it was at 9am. Not feeling good about this already lol

    SR/SR+ (Model 3 RWD) Waiting Room

    Yes I'm picking up from Tysons. but I have no idea when. the text said 'tentatively' Saturday, and my account did update to indicate that. but I see there is a note below my delivery appointment saying 'We will notify you when your car has arrived at your delivery location'. I don't remember...

    SR/SR+ (Model 3 RWD) Waiting Room

    My delivery was supposed to be today at 2pm. But tesla was in a silly goofy mood and had some other plans. Texted me last night the car was delayed in transit and rescheduled the delivery to Saturday instead 😭 I have no idea how they are only realizing just now about the delay. I even took a...

    SR/SR+ (Model 3 RWD) Waiting Room

    I think you'll get text soon from delivery team. If you chose tysons while ordering, you will more likely get home delivery. My SA said they don't have enough space to store the car so they are mostly doing home deliveries "as soon as they are finished with inspection". So with the factory...

    SR/SR+ (Model 3 RWD) Waiting Room

    Just scheduled delivery for 19th Aug (earliest available) and paid. They are making me to take home delivery. I have no idea why. I certainly opted for pickup while ordering. I asked if I can pickup, no response yet. My tinfoil hat head says the built quality is so bad that they don't even want...

    Totally gave up hope, after the dates went backwards. I went to see my SA, he asked me not to obsess over the EDD dates 😬 But, little surprise today: I received VIN . No text or email yet. EDD is still Aug 16-22. But at least, now I know I have a car for me💀 . After all, it wasn't quite as bad...

    Possible to change icon on display?

    Tesla's UI is more like an iOS than and android. Not customizable, but the good thing is they might keep it contemporary over software updates.

    New weird grey circle on display?

    A perfect circle? unlikely a hardware problem. A reboot should fix.

    Brake failed and almost crashed

    It still confuses why the consideration is only what benefits the OP. It will definitely benefit others, looking at what went wrong. I would not mind getting my driving analyzed and criticized by anonymous online community. In fact I'd very much love that; that's like free lesson by probably...

    Based on what I hear about 'Tesla way', I'm sure he really did not know anything more than what's shown on your account page. But the real question is why was he irritated to answer a simple question. Isn't answering call part of his job that he is getting paid for? Tesla really doesn't train...

    SR/SR+ (Model 3 RWD) Waiting Room

    Perhaps you could call or email your SA, rather than going over their head. If there wasn't any response, just use chat box on tesla's website; they respond quick. In most scenarios, they would just get your SA to contact you afterwards with answers or solutions. I don't know if it would a good...

    Brake failed and almost crashed

    I'm glad no one is injured. Also understand why would anyone hesitate to upload their dashcam. But in this scenario, even though it would most certainly not benefit you, it would be good for others to learn how bad the instant failure was. Especially those who text on their phone thinking their...

    Tesla Free Charging near Washington DC

    My daily commute is from Alexandria to Oxon hill. I knew about trader's joe, wholefoods and wegmans. I spent most 30 mins in TJ; I dont go to wholefoods; I go once in few weeks to wegmans and spent over an hour. That'd be pretty good juice but not enough lol I don't know what i was looking for...

    This makes no sense, why this long wait for standard config? in cali too? I ordered the standard config, thinking that would get me the car delivered sooner :oops: Did you maybe delay finish setting up your profile or put a hold or something?

    SR/SR+ (Model 3 RWD) Waiting Room

    They usually call in a day after you reach out support. It may depend on location too, if your SA location is busy, it may take little longer to receive the call. But most likely they will call you.

    Hello I unfortunately cannot charge at home. I'll be mostly charging at supercharger. I would like to know if there are free & fast charging station around DC, so I could make use them once in a while. I know they are typically slow and not worth the time spent. I did check other websites like...
