tl;dr: Need more people to make Tesla aware of this. Mobile tech in NorCal said my service request was the first he's seen I tried requesting warranty service to replace the HEPA filter but no dice. I requested mobile service because I've had too many experiences waiting 20+ mins just to be...

Thanks for the link. I saw they sell a 59 inch version too. Would that be sufficient?

Agree 100%. Got used to and maybe even prefer the blinkers, but the horn is still a problem. Maybe it works for some people, but the mash all buttons on the right feature didn't work out for me. The one time I tried it, it activated the wipers instead. Needless to say the other driver didn't...

Unfortunately the consensus on TMC is that Elon lied about having the hardware. People have taken apart the yoke and found no hardware to support his tweet. I guess the silver lining is that Tesla does at least seem to be listening to customer feedback - honestly I didn't think we'd see a round...

Curious if they fixed the horn too

Love that the yoke feels like a video game controller. What would really complete the experience is some L/R trigger buttons. What would they do? No idea but I'm sure Tesla can figure something out...

Does the nearby cars visualization on the Model S instrument cluster use radar at all or is it based on cameras only? I feel like it's gotten worse recently on my Model S Refresh (with radar hardware, 2022.16.3 firmware). But it's possible it was a software regression or I'm imagining it (it...

A few thoughts: A few people have reported Tesla offering a discount on cars that have been sitting for a while and/or have been repaired for major damage. iirc they were only a modest discount only (maybe $5k max?). If you don't have a time machine to order in the past, next best thing would...

Sadly, as far as I can tell, Tesla doesn't give a **sugar** about making customers feel valued. As long as people keep lining up, they'll just sell to the next guy in line. I really hope a credible competitor steps up to Tesla soon, because in this current market they're correct to prioritize...

Were you able to get these from the service center? I'm still waiting on cargo covers. I took delivery on 2/10. I was instructed by the delivery agent to file a service request. Whenever I get to the day before the mobile service appointment, they postpone it by 2 weeks because the parts are...

After they saw my Yelp review they contacted me to bring it back. They were confident the scratches could be polished out even though both Tesla and another shop said they were too deep. They tried for several hours but sure enough they didn't fully come out and left some distortion. We made a...

Holy bananas wish I saw this thread earlier. I made the mistake of having my windshield tinted at Jet Black Tint Fremont, and they scratched up the outside of my windshield. Absolutely not worth the price savings, for CERAMIC even.

-1 for jet black. Fremont location specifically. They scratched the outside of my windshield on my brand new model S. The price was cheap but I learned a hard lesson not to skimp when sharp knives are involved.

I took delivery on 2/10 from Fremont and mine was also missing this cover. You have one more than me - I'm also missing the one on the left. My experience was similar - the delivery folks were utterly unhelpful. This was supposed to be addressed at my service appointment on 3/3, along with a...

This was indeed helpful to me. Thank you! For me my Genie GIRUD-1T receiver would only program with the original Genie remote that came with it; I couldn't program with a third party Liftmaster remote.

Mine was missing the one over the trunk well. What was most frustrating is the exact same car right next to mine had it, but they wouldn't let me take it from another car. Instead I'm waiting until March to maybe get it.

Frankly I wish more people would reject deliveries on quality issues so that Tesla would get the message and their act together. That being said I couldn't and didn't do it, after "only" a relatively short 6.5 month wait.

I haven't driven mine long enough to form an opinion, but I watched a Ryan Shaw YouTube review where he pointed out that if you're changing lanes to the left, looking at the main touchscreen is in the opposite direction. He suggested a better implementation would have the camera feed in the...

I just returned the Tesla floor mats I bought last week for $180. I returned them because the drivers' mat didn't cover the left side where my left foot rests. It looks like these new ones fix this issue. They also made the rear floor mats a single piece. I'm waiting for a shipment of Tesmanian...

I'm not sure if my experience is representative, but to my surprise Tesla barely inspected my trade-in vehicle. For my trade-in, Carvana, Carmax, and Tesla were all within a couple hundred dollars (Vroom was a few thousand less, fwiw). Carmax's estimate was after they examined and noted the...

Same here - worst and doesn't match the car's price tag. Had to surrender the cashiers check and accept before I could unlock the doors and discover the issues with it. When I brought up the missing trunk floor cover they brushed it off dismissively as needing to be fixed by service appointment...

Thanks! Got my VIN on 2/5. They originally automatically scheduled delivery for 2/7 but I needed a few extra days to get everything together. This was a Fremont factory pickup. Posted pics over in the LR delivery thread: 2021+ Model S LR Delivery Tracking

Took delivery of a NF4707 today. No new lights.

Took delivery of our NF4707xx today. Not surprisingly, no updated headlights/taillights. Some notes on delivery experience at the Fremont factory: Trade-in was a breeze. I thought it would add some time and hassle for them to do at least some basic checks. But no, they barely looked at it, and...

I just went through getting quotes from a bunch of insurance companies and consistent with what you're saying, Allstate was the highest for me. Progressive was the lowest, so I went with them. For some reason I couldn't continue the quote online. With some of the other insurance companies (e.g...

Mine's a NF4707, born on 2/2/22, VIN assigned yesterday 2/5/22

Will do! Neither expecting nor hoping for (ok, maybe a little bit) the rumored updates but will report back.

Yep! Live in Fremont, picking up from 45500 Fremont Blvd.

Wow, you guys weren't kidding when you said things accelerate near delivery date. Just got a text saying delivery is scheduled for 2/7 at 4 PM. Which means, the car was already built? Or they're pumping it out now? EDIT: Just spoke to Tesla, the car was born on 2/2/22

Second update in the same day, 2/7-2/16 → 2/7-2/11 + VIN! NF470. I'm guessing I'd be in the minority, but it's looking like Tesla is on track to make good on their original "February" timeframe given when I ordered on 7/31/21.

EDD Update #16, after entering EDD range a 4th time: 2/4-2/14 → 2/7-2/16. Window shrank 1 day. It's progress, I guess? Can't complain when I hear others with earlier RNs being bumped to EOQ and beyond.

EDD update #15: 2/1-2/15 → 2/4-2/14, the narrowest for me so far. Safe to buy floor mats yet? Would like to have the option of returning them just in case.

Yeah I agree it's a pretty sucky customer experience. I haven't given up hope but pretty much dare not hope or place expectations anymore... been disappointed too many times and have seen too much disappointment here. Doesn't mean I'm not refreshing 50 times a day to see how it plays out though!

Entered EDD range for the 3rd time. Let's see how much it gets pushed out this time. Last time it didn't update until the second day in.

RN1154, update #14 this morning: EDD window shrank from 2/1-3/1 to 2/1-2/15. More details in signature.

Congratulations! Dug up this old post: 2021+ Model S LR Delivery Tracking. Looks like they're going to make that 1/11-1/25 window after all. Since then my 1/12-1/26 window was bumped out to 2/1-3/1. Still happily waiting my turn... wondering how many more EDD changes are in store for my order...

I saw a swap on this thread: 2022 Model S LR Reservation Transfer - December Delivery. Probably best bet is to contact your sales advisor and ask what your options are. If you don't have a SA you could try the phone number in this post: 2021+ Model S LR Delivery Tracking

Putting the order on hold would be a proactive move to avoid getting a VIN. If you're asking whether the ramifications are the same, your guess is as good as mine. There was some conversation earlier in this thread about the new policies for Model 3/Y: 2021+ Model S LR Delivery Tracking

As far as I've read, we still don't know if and when new headlights are coming to North American cars. I'll believe it when we start seeing pictures of them in deliveries on this thread. If I were in your position (new headlights are very important), I'd hold off on following up with them until...

EDD was pushed out to 2/1-3/1 this morning - full circle from the original "February" at order time. I guess we can hope for the rumored matrix headlights. Not too excited about how similar the new rear design looks to the M3's though.

I've entered my EDD window today. Haven't gotten pushed back yet but fully expecting it. Mixed feelings about the headlight/taillight changes, so we'll take it if our turn comes up.

Hm, could be. So probably the interior contributes more to the EDD. Or, there's no method to the madness, and it's whatever the chaos monkey feels like handing us today.

Rollercoaster indeed. Judging by the stories on this thread you can't really believe anything until you have the car in hand. There have been VINs granted and disappearing, delivery dates moved backward, forward - nothing's guaranteed. What's your color combo? Wondering if we might be in the...

Sorry to those who recently got pushed out. My Fremont pickup order was just pulled in and the window reduced to 2 weeks, 1/12-1/26. It's the first time I've had a 2-week EDD range that wasn't a bogus-looking EOQ range. With a West Coast order, I was expecting to be pushed to EOQ again this time...

My EDD was pulled in rather than pushed back. It's back to ~February which was my original EDD at order time. It would put me at around 6 months from order date, which seems on par with other deliveries on this thread. However it's still a 4 week window so I'm sure it will still change a bunch...

RN1154 ordered 7/31/21, Fremont pickup. My EDD is still 3/10-4/7.

I think they're referring to the stories of dealer markups - https://fordauthority.com/2021/12/2022-ford-f-150-lightning-dealer-markups-surprising-some-reservation-holders/

Cool, thanks for the information. We were debating for the longest time between these two cars. We got to test drive the EQS 450, but of course Tesla still hasn't made test drives available for the Model S Refresh. I was most interested in comparing the sound isolation since I've heard that's a...

How did you get the Hyperscreen on the EQS 450? When we did the test drive they said it was only available for now on the 580 and wouldn't available on the 450 until next year. I also don't see the option MB build site. Also curious - how noticeable is the difference in noise / sound isolation?

I'm seeing January 2023 on the tesla.com build configurator page - are you sure it's January 2022?
