They are here in full force

Nothing that we know of other than the vin number.

It’s stupid but because of book values, you will get thousands more some day to sell/trade in just because or the model year being one year newer.

If you ordered in Jan of 22 it was 95k base price.

I’m curious about this too. I have another model s coming that’s slated for 12/1-12/31 and should be an early 2023. Last year I got assigned a vin on 11/18 and it was a 2021 but many people at that time were getting 2022 models. I think it’s Going to be very close for you. If you live close to...

Have you all seen this? In the video Sandy is surprised there was no “pulsing” maybe this is what you all are feeling and it’s just part of the motor design? I wonder if it happens when the magnets align just right with the back motors and causes you to feel it.

All of them have the dash alignment issues on the passenger side. If you look at where the speaker grill meets the A-pillar you will see the speaker grill looks sunken in on the passenger side. Or if you track the black portion of the bottom of the windshield, more black is exposed on the...

Yes, for anyone curious you can see how the climate control blows into the display here: It is a really bad design and eventually there will be so much dust it will be very distracting.

Since day 1 I had debris in between the plastic lens and the screen on the drivers display. After 6 months a lot more dust has accumulated. Obviously it's just going to get worse and worse over time. Unfortunately the service center said that it is not serviceable as it's a sealed unit and there...

Have you guys tried putting your gas in front of the headlight to see exactly where the notch comes from? Is it something physically on the headlight housing blocking it?

Do you also feel like it got way worse with this update? It was actually pretty good IMO before (like I said, about 90% accurate and definitely wouldn't have to run into a car right in front of you)

I am having the same issue with spotify. Since 2022.8.2 I have also noticed the predictive shifting also gets it wrong way more often than it used to. Before this update it would get it right 9/10 times now it's 50/50 at best. There can literally be a car right in front of me and it will get it...

it sounds like what you are describing is brake noise from the new brakes taht are not broken in. When brakes are new they tend to groan until the pad and rotor are bedded. These cars typically get very little brake usage. I had the same issue for the first couple of months but it’s gone now (as...

One of the biggest considerations that I think people overlook is that the new LR does not loose power/become slower as the battery drains like the old S/X and the 3/Y. If you look at acceleration vs charge % on the older cars it drops off quick as your battery drains which is a huge benefit.

Tesla is going to have to do something about the non-sealed driver display. Mine is already accumulating more and more dust. I can only imagine what these will look like after a couple years in a dusty environment.

Here are some pics of where it's making contact. Just watch the fender when you shut the door, mine moves as the door makes contact so it's very obvious once you look.

I have prob 4-5 rattles that come and go too. Check your door/fender and the mirror. Rattles on the outside very much sounds like they are coming from an inside source.

Does it seem like it's related to the car flexing too? Like going up a ramp at an angle or speed bump?

After having my model s a month and a half I thought I would followup with the build quality issues that have come up since the initial delivery: - Front drivers side fender is making contact the the mirror frame when door is closed. This creates a weird rattle/squeak that sounds like it's...

I have a feb '22 build and I also have the passenger side door hard to close issue as well. Haven't taken it in yet.

What I mean is for only the exact combo of white/black/19s they are saying “Nov” but for every other combo it’s saying “July”. Logically there is nothing special about the base combo that would make the EDD further out other than they are trying to incentivize people to spend a couple grand...

Well as I thought, looks like Tesla was bluffing on the "Nov" delivery for the Model S White/Black 19s. I ordered another one (really want the new headlights and tails) and my EDD went from Nov -> Aug/Sept -> June/August. Fortunately I got in before this last $5k price hike and only paid $79k...

Today I placed a new order for a Model S (even tho I just took delivery) I really wish I would have been delayed just a little longer for the updated tails and headlights. The way the used car market is right now, I should be able to sell mine and get into the new one for a wash. In Oregon we...

Is anyone having an issue where the rear passenger window randomly cracks open? It's doing it as if the door is being opened when I get in the drivers side but never rolls back up.

Incorrect. The aerodynamics of the wheel and also the weight can have a significant impact on efficiency. Choosing the right tire certainly can have a big impact but overlooking the wheel is ridiculous. There are tons of test/studies that confirm this. Here is an example of the impact of...

It has the privacy cover but not the trunk floor shelf.

I wanted to give everyone an update on these issues. Car went into service yesterday with the following done based on the issues: 1. They removed the seats and re-fit the backrest material. Issues solved. 2. They were able to remove most of the debris but not all of it - they are taking the...

Checked again, it does make a buzzing noise but would have never noticed it until you mentioned it. I would assume they will fix the light issues with an update.

That black plastic clip near the bottom of the cables is not in place. You need to push it into that hole on the body.

No yoke noises but my cubby light is backwards too.

I’m reposting this as it’s the more appropriate thread but I had some interior issues at delivery unfortunately. Well I got my model s on Tuesday. I have already put about 150 miles on it. Overall the car is incredible. The exterior of the car was perfect but the interior had quite a few small...

Pretty disappointed in the lack of QC on the interior. I have a service appointment on Friday so we will see.

Well I got my model s on Tuesday. I have already put about 150 miles on it. Overall the car is incredible. The exterior of the car was perfect but the interior had quite a few small issues. 1. Both front seats had loose material on the back rest. 2. Dust/debris was in between the plastic and...

I’ll have to search to see if I can find it. Glad plays weird tricks when it comes to where sounds are coming from. It could be the same. I’m guessing it’s inside the A pillar or headliner because like I said, even putting pressure of different parts doesn’t change the sound or stop it.

Has anyone experienced a slight creek/rattle coming from what sounds like the top of the windshield on the drivers side? I just got my model s and there is a faint but constant rattle when the car is moving coming from what sounds like the headliner in the corner where the windshield and the...

Something I found out just this last week, a lot of areas (at least CA and OR) are only doing at home drop off. In Portland it is no longer an option to have the car delivered any other way. Mine will be here tomorrow morning!

I agree, I do understand how they have developed a system and when someone wants to break that system it causes problems. They seem to be very firm on this policy and I have decided it's really not worth fighting with empolyees and running it up the flag pole to maybe finally get them to accept...

Something that is frustrating is in Portland, OR they are now doing at home delivery only. They said this is the new policy for anyone in the area (other than WA residents) and there are no exceptions. I know this has also been going on at some of the Cali locations as well. I pushed back and...

I’m guessing your location has a lot to do with it. Here is my quote I’m 33 years old with nothing on my record through State Farm. This is with 1000 collision and 500 comp.

I’m sorry man! It does not make any sense at all, have you tried talking to the folks in person at Washington Square? Most of them are very helpful (especially Dan and Sherri). I wish I could help you out if you want their contact info DM me.

Have you completed all your profile tasks and selected that your paying cash?

🥳 Tuesday can’t come soon enough.

It varied but was end of jan/early feb the whole time and just kept shrinking this whole month. It was down to 1/28-2/6 right before the vin popped up.

Got a VIN! NF469, delivery next week!

I would bet money that the reason they changed the name from “model s long range” to “model s” is that whenever the new 4680 model s comes out, it will have a new sub model. So likely anyone with a current model s order would not be grandfathered into that version and be stuck at what would...

While no one can explain some of the really old orders waiting around here, tons and tons of legacy orders have been fulfilled. Most of the people don’t come back to this thread after they get their car. I am a $79k order with the cheapest config and I originally had a vin and delivery for end...

Also mud flaps! Model S Mud Flaps Oddly enough, they are only selling front ones...

Anyone else get a text like this?

I would put a hold on your account before you get a VIN if that is what you want to do. If you get assigned a car and then "reject" it because it doesn't have the new lights it's a lot worse. My SA told me that they are only allowing people one rejection now, so once you reject it you will be...

They are apparently the same new matrix tech that is on the model y and 3 so it should be a huge improvement over the current ones.
