Mobile service came and fixed it again, this time by adjusting the latch position. Hopefully it stays operational. I did learn one thing though; if the hood doesn't open successfully, no need to close it in order to push the open button again. With the hood released from the first release...

I haven't received any recall notice either with mail or email. Come to think of it, I do open or attempt to open the frunk every 3 to 4 weeks when I wash my car, open the hood to dry everything off and to clean out all the leaves/pine needles that have accumulated.

It has about 8K miles; thanks for letting me know.

My '22 MS LR picked up 9/22 had this issue within the first few months. At first a few tries, after closing and opening from the app while standing right in front of the car would let the hood open. Quickly, it progressed to the 2nd latch point never releasing. I did ask on TMC and was...

On my 2022 Model S, left at work (underground parking in SoCal) I lose about 1% every 3 days with sentry mode off only as my only adjustment. On my new model Y, parked in my covers home garage, the loss is at least 3% daily and I can’t figure out why even with sentry off. No extra 3rd party...

Just got a new in inventory MYLR, blue, white interior, smallest/base wheels, 3 miles. I am assuming 2023 year. Price before destination was 50,490 so no discount off site but I imagine this is regional as I stated above. We did get a referral credit of $250 which offset the $250 order fee LOL.

We found the exact car this morning; located at an Tesla shop about an hour away. Had the Tesla rep contact us from the webpage link which she did. Reserved the car and drove it home by the afternoon. Very quick and efficient. No BS as I would have gotten from a traditional dealership...

There are no discounts on MYLR in my area (SoCal) but when we looked for cars in Princeton NJ (where we moved from), discounts of at least several thousand are the norm. This is also part of the CA tax I suppose.

Tesla site says Oct-Nov delivery so very reasonable but her desired configuration (Blue/white interior/LR/5 seat/any wheels) seems to pop up here and there so we can just pick it up whenever. I have a MSLR delivered Aug 2022 which I waited for 6 months when demand was high.

Thanks, there was one configuration very close and we were just about to buy but then realized that me and my wife are going out of town soon. We don't want my daughter tempted to drive on her own as she is a new driver. If it the Tesla order page states available immediately, from forum...

I'm in the SoCal area and want to buy a new MYLR for my daughter without having the need to order if possible. She wants a specific color (exterior and interior) but otherwise has no other requests. The exact configuration was there last week but she wasn't sure yet so I did not commit then...

Thanks for your reply. I’m wanting to repair it at the end of my lease to return to Tesla. Don’t mind the curb rash for now and expect more. My next Tesla will have 19”. Does anyone who has leased from Tesla know if they charge for wheel replacement or repair for curb rashed wheels on lease...

I have a 2022 MSLR with factory 21" wheels which have the inevitable curb rash damage on the passenger side. Is there a good repairer recommendation for my area? Do they usually come to you and do the wheels have to come off?

Thanks for the video. I’ll give it a try.

2022 Model S LR just picked up end of August. I've accessed the hood several times successfully. After pressing to pop open the hood, the hood slightly lifts up, it is still latched and I am unable to lift up. Multiple times of pressing down on the hood to completely close and then trying...

I used Griot's glass polish/pad/Flex on both the front and back windshields and the difference is great. Now, using Invisible Glass, the results are so much better.

I just ordered the Griot’s glass polish and pads as I also found it impossible to completely clean the windshield and rear screen externally on my new Model S. I do have a Flex random orbital polisher. My question is do the side windows also have the scum as I plan on doing the front, rear...

Description of the update lists wipers included in the available shortcuts at the bottom row of the screen but I don’t find the wiper icon anywhere. Do have the defrosts and seat heater/cooler though

Recently received a 2022 MS LR and park in the driveway so keep sentry on always. I charge the car daily via a Tesla Wall Connecter starting at 9pm when rates are cheaper and then notice in the morning it is around 2% less than the target charge level. Is this normal as it is about 7 hours or...

I just got my Model S LR with about 16 or so miles when delivered. Presently, I have 119 miles and charge only at home using the gen 3 Tesla WC. I'm in California and have theTOU D rate plan of 0.33 per kWh, charging only after 9pm when the rates are lowest. The car was delivered at 69%...

Thank you. My bad.

Just picked up a new Model S LR 8/31, built 8/26 and got the option to upgrade to 2022.24.6 from 2022.15 which I updated successfully. The blind spot display doesn't move as in the various videos by selecting and dragging. Is there something else I need to program to enable this function? I...

Just got my Tesla 2 days ago and parked it in my driveway which correctly labeled the car location as “home.” I then parked directly it across and down the street about 4 car lengths away so my wife could take her car out of the garage. The car location was again correct on the Tesla mobile...

I picked up yesterday and definitely ordered before the cutoff date of the mobile charger not being included (March 24). No mobile charger but I did get some kind of adapter (1 piece only). Anyone missing the mobile charger? I initiated a service via the app and will see what happens...

I think TESLA is rapidly catching up with MS LR orders or the S is falling out of favor with the new luxury models available from the conventional manufacturers. Got a VIN yesterday and picking up tomorrow.

I just looked again on the existing MS inventory on the website for the LA area. Similar to the last 2-3 weeks there are 12-13 MS Plaids with FSD available. They are not even close to be selling out. People on the forum who want to order a MS Plaid without FSD seem to only have a 1-2 months...

My breaker was also on the other side of the house. The house just got completely remodeled 2 years ago so they added a sub panel for a total of 200A then. Installation cost $2,000 plus cost of the Tesla Wall Charger in Santa Monica. The tech had to run wire in conduit under the house (around...

RN1168 EDD Sept 15 - Oct 27

I just looked on the Tesla site for new available MS in the Los Angeles area and there are 14 available Plaids which seems to be a lot for car crazed LA. Maybe the Plaid market is saturating or maybe no one wants to be forced to buy FSD which 13 out of the 14 had. My MSLR delivery date range...

Where I live (California), $500 fine to use any leaf blower if caught as they are outlawed due to noise pollution. Also can't wash car in driveway as the runoff including soaps drain directly into the bay without treatment. I used to wash my car all the time and used the leaf blower routine...

As an additional issue of Tesla vs your own business auto insurance, I was advised by my business insurance broker to make sure if you go with Tesla insurance which is usually cheaper, make sure the liability is much higher, on the order of $1 million vs the usual non-commercial limits.

Thanks for all of the replies and thoughts. As I stated, I'm just used to having several cars for variety (daily driver is a Suburban; I've had every generation Suburban or GMC Yukon XL since 1999 as a DD changing every 5-6 years, 2nd is a 1995 LR Defender 90 NAS that I would not trust on a...

I am expecting my 1st Tesla hopefully in October being a S LR. Being in the Los Angeles area, one always needs a car and have for a while own 3 vehicles,. One being my daily driver (SUV), have another SUV and lastly a sports car. If one vehicle was having issues which I admit is rare with...

I ordered a Model S LR which is expected later this year and as this is my first electric car, will likely lease. I tried to get a phone number to ask Tesla specifically but didn't have much luck. Support and Contact us directed me back to the same web pages. Can someone who has leased under...

Just ordered a S LR for delivery later this year. Noticing that the need to replace battery pack occurs on older models, does the battery pack “age” out irrespective of mileage as just over 100k is not high mileage when comparing to a modern ICE vehicle.

Thanks all. Do the front and rear cameras count as Sentry clips when driving? I rather have a system where the all the cameras record in a loop like fashion with days or weeks storage available depending on drive size. Then if something happens which I hope would be rare, I could save the...

Model S LR ordered for probable Sept '22 delivery. Just a question, knowing how important it is to have documentation when driving especially in the Los Angeles area, do the cars built in cameras record while driving and if so, how big a solid state hard drive or USB thumb drive can I attach?

Never drove electric but living in SoCal with a 7 minute commute to work (3 miles) and don't drive long distance, once I install a separate 100amp circuit in the garage, the situation seems optimal for a Tesla S. I can lease under my business and benefit from the deduction but read on this forum...
