    Wireless charging not working

    I am wondering what the next steps are on this as I have the new 15 Pro max and after having my 14 pro max battery nuked by heat from this awful design and also contacting Tesla to no avail, I'm wondering if this is needing something like a class action to get their attention. The car should...

    Anyone been through asking Tesla to buy back a car lately?

    Justification is 10 times damage has occurred out of 11 service visits. If you can say that doesn’t affect value of the vehicle I cannot help you. My statement above is simply the compounding after the above damages and an attempt to find redemption in a brand that makes it difficult to...

    Anyone been through asking Tesla to buy back a car lately?

    Honda simply helped a customer friend of mine with an issue they had and you could call them and they actually showed they gave a crap about your issue. Tesla on the other hand just cannot be bothered. At 10k on the ODO with this car it rattles like crazy now, has been fun to drive at...

    Anyone been through asking Tesla to buy back a car lately?

    So an update: The service manager just emailed on the day they said exactly simply saying that buyback was declined, not further context. It was evidently sent to legal by her, she wrote the request for buy back and said legal won't say why it was declined. I also asked what she wrote as...

    Anyone been through asking Tesla to buy back a car lately?

    I sent an email to them first of the week. Still no response. Was also told by the phone individual they would get back to my by Monday from a conversation I had with them on Friday. Pretty much confirming what I figured all along. They don’t care. 🤷🏻‍♂️ Very unimpressive service for...

    Anyone been through asking Tesla to buy back a car lately?

    LOL. Well I am happy to fight them. For me it’s principle and also about not taking a hit on their complacency. That’s their job to provide the warranty. They are not doing so as needed by damaging my property.

    Anyone been through asking Tesla to buy back a car lately?

    That’s the route I’ve taken. But the issue/concern is these unqualified or untrained personnel that they employ aren’t careful. And that’s simply exhausting. We will see how this progresses.

    Anyone been through asking Tesla to buy back a car lately?

    No, but the car only has 8k after 1.5 years of ownership. It’s really ironic because this would be so easily remedied and I think the more we think about it the more we are just done. Tesla isn’t going to change their ways for us, and that’s ok. I think pursuing buyback is really the best...

    Anyone been through asking Tesla to buy back a car lately?

    It’s been worked on probably 15 times. And 13 of those have been with incident. So I was just using an example.

    Anyone been through asking Tesla to buy back a car lately?

    I’ve tried other service centers. And across multiple SCs, it’s the same. And when 19 out of 20 times they screw something up, I deem this excessive. So after they buy the car back hypothetically, rest assured I will never buy another. This is our first and assuredly last car from Tesla...

    Anyone been through asking Tesla to buy back a car lately?

    To keep this high level, I've had this car for a year and a half. But in the ownership process I've enjoyed the car itself with the exclusion of every time the car is serviced it gets damaged to almost a 95% time success rate. I'm now on my 4th door panel from it being scraped by the tech as...

    New car tint revealed a scratch in between the panes of glass - should Tesla pay for re-tint after replacing the glass??

    Others will catch up more now as companies are now unveiling EVs. But that will take time no doubt.

    New car tint revealed a scratch in between the panes of glass - should Tesla pay for re-tint after replacing the glass??

    Happy to do so. It will eventually get to the point when others catch up teslas aren’t the brand people want. Will take time but it’s coming because of that toilet tweeting CEO.

    New car tint revealed a scratch in between the panes of glass - should Tesla pay for re-tint after replacing the glass??

    I took delivery in Oct of a 2021 MYP and both my front windows had scratches in the glass between panes. Multiple ones in fact on both. Long story short. 3 sets of replacements as replacements even had scratches, plus interior doors got damaged by the mobile tech and had to replace those as...

    Help - No Internet

    The network card was bad and they replaced by removing the under side kick plate thankfully. Was a easy swap no damage done. Evidently the new network cards have been redesigned. Or revised perhaps.

    Where is the harness? I am having the same issues.

    PSA - small dents on all brand new Model Y hoods

    Had the same, kept it the way it was as the dents didn't go away when popped open also a nov delivery 2021. Not worth making it worse with the wonderful techs from Tesla....

    Selling my MYLR reservation

    Tesla will cancel the order if you try and sell it to someone before delivery - 2nd above.

    Bad tint job? Need advice

    If they already have cut the glass on the first attempt, what kind of guess that they will do it a second time or worse? Talk to management and say this is a new car. This isn't going to fly. Gaps of the window tint are unacceptable. I also refuse to tint roof or windshield for this very...

    I want to color the screen backing from silver to black. What is the best way to do this?

    Heat is never your friend on tech. No matter the rating That thing fails, the SC will say that's on you

    LOL - We like it dark. Bats are nocturnal.

    Picture of your Model Y - Right Now!

    Finally have my upgrades done. Just need to do ceramic coat inside and out once it warms up in a month or two.

    Model Y makes hum noise all the time

    Turn off Sentry mode from your app when you are at home. You will see the noise stops. The system is running in the background and that is why.

    Brand new MYP on delivery with range 289

    Outside temps have a lot to do with it I'm sure.

    Just to let you know , AMD Ryzen is so fast, everything feels like im using my home PC

    I really do not like Intel anything. I think if the opportunity to upgrade my system on mine from the intel then I will totally jump at it. Dumped my intel MacBook Pro to the Apple silicon max and it's just insane how archaic anything intel makes. How are they even relevant today?!

    Brand new Model Y P needs a battery replacement.

    I'd honestly call the SC manager and take it up to the regional or district. If they do this one time, they will do it again. At what point do you call them on it and at what point do you get to a point where you cannot go back and have the fix the other things. I'm in with my Tesla right...

    Brand new Model Y P needs a battery replacement.

    I'm just amazed you continue to remain calm like this. I honestly would be livid with them. The one thing I've noted with Tesla is they have a mindset of "don't worry about it, it's not that big a deal. You'll overlook it once you drive it". Wrong, this is a expensive vehicle. I expect...

    No Software Update

    Going on week 8 with the car and still on the crappy factory software for 2021.35.102. So much for what the SC said at 4 to 6 weeks. Now they just say "your software is up to date". It's like going to a version of the Genius Bar but these are the ones Apple rejected and Tesla hired. It's...

    Brand new Model Y no heat!

    Smells like lemon law is in your future. Honestly so underwhelmed with Tesla in so many ways. The longer I own, the more I think it's a stop gap to finding a new auto manufacturer that actually has it figured out and wants to help the consumer. Tesla is driven by numbers, not customer...

    Repeated Issues on new car - Is there a better way?

    Purchased a new MYP Oct 30, so far I've had 3 pair of front windows installed due to scratching from the manufacturer, the 7th window will be installed in a couple weeks and re-tinted, alignment, hood dents (which I understand may be the latch is too tight), and having the window tint yesterday...

    Wall Charger Installation

    Any qualified electrician can do it. So long as the understand code. I installed a 60 amp breaker with 4 gauge THHN in conduit runs for my setup and it's thick but it works well and they wanted 1000-1500 to install it. Cost me 2 days of work and 375 in parts outside of the charger itself and...

    Vendor New Site - 3D MAXpider

    I had mats on with AutoAnything that I got on sale and they charged me and kept me waiting for 3 months and then said it might be another month for the trunk liner. Honestly, their service was piss poor. Ordered off amazon from a re-seller. 6 days later I had it. Maxpider suggested...

    Steering wheel off center but alignment in spec?

    Got my MY last Sat and also had alignment done on Tuesday. Was out on the right side, and was better going home. Fingers crossed

    Delivery timeline issue coming up on 4 months MYP - thoughts?

    I’ve seen many people post about changing their orders up and going from a long range to a performance after waiting for three months and then taking delivery almost immediately or within a couple of weeks. I am located in the Midwest, Kansas, to be specific. From what Tesla has told me this is...
