If I look up that tire on Continentals website - they say it doesn’t fit a MYP. But if I review the sizes they offer; it seems they offer the correct 255/35/21 and 275/35/21 tire. Where did you buy yours from? The Continental tires are way cheaper than the Pirelli and Nokian options, which makes...

The North American automotive brands (Tesla, Rivian, Ford, GM) have all moved to NACS. Stellantis is a foreign entity, although I recognize the history that Chrysler and Dodge have, when their headquarters were in North America. Adapters are going to be inevitable. Tesla owners might be the...

Car washes don’t always thoroughly dry your car (not enough time, etc), and if you don’t towel dry the vehicle afterwards - it picks up dirt easily. This isn’t unique to a Tesla, but the back of the vehicle doesn’t get very dry thru most of the local touchless car washes. If I get a touchless...

What are the chances that NEVI requirements get changed? NEVI requirements are well intentioned, but it could easily be argued that the requirements were wrote with the best information they had at the time. It seems really counterproductive to have NEVI requirements that don’t reflect the...

Did you ever find anything out? My passenger door has a similar thing going on in one section. I think I missed it during vehicle inspection and pickup. I haven’t tried a paint meter. Visually looking at the car, there is still a clear coat, and the pearl white paint appears normal. The rest...

(12) V3 Superchargers heading to Meijer at; 1801 Marketplace Drive Caledonia, MI 49316

Did you ever get it fixed at the SC? After a few months, I had an alignment issue. But they fixed it for free. No issues since

I had it, too. Local service center took care of it for free.

Few observations; Destin, Florida was a top 5 location in Q1 2023, but before Q1 2023 voting ended, Tesla picked a Destin location and began the permitting process. It seems like Destin was already going to happen, regardless of the vote. Basically; should Destin really be in the top 5 still...

Same. I was hoping to use the Destin Supercharger for an upcoming trip, but this Supercharger has reset my expectations on the pace of rollouts in the Florida panhandle. Does anyone know if the utility will let Tesla build the site before they have the power secured? Like could this...

Tesla does this at some locations. I thought of another strategy to minimize costs, if you have an extra 2-3 minutes. To save money - don’t precondition the battery. It will reduce your peak charge speeds, which will reduce the time you spend paying the most expensive rates

Opened yesterday. Indian Boundary Plaza 706 Plaza Dr, Chesterton, IN 46304, USA Indian Boundary Plaza | PlugShare

I would enjoy a LFP Model X Plaid. It’s got the air suspension, better range, more towing, vented seats, etc.

Kalamazoo and Grand Rapids Michigan has some, too. Some of them actually been on the lot for a few weeks. I started watching autotrader to see what new models I could test drive. In the last 2-3 months I’ve been seeing inventory sitting around; inventory like Mach-E, Lightning, ID4, EQS, EQC...

The permit was issued on March 6th. Does anyone have a feel for what kind of timetable Tesla usually has with a Supercharger site, once electrical permit is issued?

So true. Especially with some of the brands trying so hard to appear environmentally friendly (e.g. Westin or Element). Often this means they install low-flow shower heads and offer the ability to skip house keeping. Meanwhile, the rooftops could be outfitted with solar panels, and the parking...

What are the chargers at the service centers? They aren’t Superchargers, right? Or are they a generic Supercharger of sorts?

2022 was a really challenging year around the midwest. Some locations from ChargePoint and Rivian had construction start in June 2022, but not come online until January or February 2023. I watched many ‘coming soon’ PlugShare locations get removed, after 12 months+ of no signs of progress. The...

When picking a hotel, how many of you factor EVSE charging into the decision? Wife and I could plan our trip so that we arrive at the hotel with enough battery to make it to the next Supercharger on the following day. But we would prefer to leave the hotel with a preconditioned car with 100%...

I’m conflicted. I see NACS as superior for a few reasons; Easier to use cable Smaller connector size More reliable disconnect (I had a CCS connector freeze to my Tesla adapter. Never had a supercharger cable freeze to my car) More reliable charging experience (no faulting 10 minutes into a...

It was frozen. Waited until 1:00 PM - was sunny out and high of 39 degrees; then the button pushed down without hesitation. Mission accomplished. We brought hand warmers, a blanket…and we’re praying. Didn’t want to leave it for multiple days if I had to wait for service visit from the...

Hello everyone! Hoping the forum has suggestions on how to free a CCS adapter that is stuck to a CCS cable. The adapter clicked into place when it was connected to the connector, but when it came time to leave - I noticed the button on the CCS cable will not press down whatsoever. We tried for...

It is a generalized statement. Every manufacturer will make cars with one-off issues, but newer model cars (even ICE cars) have issues that can plague them. Some people have sworn off buying the first year of a new generation/vehicle refresh due to their experience in the past. This will hold...

I would probably wait a little bit to buy a Rivian. They are focusing on not having to raise more funding, trying to scale new production facilities, and start their own private DCFC network. The Rivian forums give the impression that the vehicles have a variety of recurring issues. I waited...

I am from Kalamazoo and have taken drives all over Michigan in a 2022 MYP. I also have a Honda with an all LED head/taillight setup as well. In areas with less……..higher end cars (rural being a great example), I am more likely to see people flashing their headlights (at both the Honda and the...

It buffed out. Took it to the Tesla authorized body shop before Tesla. Took them 10 minutes.

Service center is having me come in tomorrow. The SC doesn’t think the clear is coming off. There is one Tesla auto body shop I am going to try and bring it to before the SC visit. I somewhat worry that Tesla is just going to throw some wax compound on, buff it, and not actually address it. I...

I am someone who would be very critical of every defect. This is the most expensive automobile I've ever owned. It's price makes it compete against some very respectable cars. I don't give Tesla any slack. I love my Tesla. Build quality was fantastic - better than the Hummer EV at the auto...

It sounds like something flexing. I'm asking Tesla to take a look at it. But I'm hoping the forum can share their thoughts on root causes. It most commonly happens when we're preconditioning or at the charger.

Service appointment scheduled. After first noticing the spot a couple weeks ago, it has grown in size. Extending further down the same rear quarter panel. My wife saw posts online where Tesla owners thought service centers had performed touchup/waxing prior to delivery, in attempt to hide...

Not sure where y'all see so much used Tesla inventory. I am looking at used Tesla within 50 mile radius. Near me, there are just 13 used Tesla, and 9 used Mach-E. Ford has sold 93,000 Mach-E. Tesla has sold 3 million EV. Ford has sold 1/32 as many EV as Tesla, but they have almost as many...

Will do.

Ask them to fix it. The same speaker needed alignment in mine; it was possible to see the speaker cable behind it. Initially, they ordered a replacement. But in the same service visit, they uninstalled it and reinstalled it. To Hamtaro7 point tho, snap pictures of the vehicle and make note of...

After washing the car, we noticed the driver rear quarter panel had what appeared to be condensation on the paint. Upon closer inspection; it wasn't going away. A week goes by, we wash the car again. We thought it might have been residue leftover from the previous wash. After washing the car...

Looking for a single, rear, 21" Uberturbine rim with no curb rash. Located in Kalamazoo, Michigan DM or comment in the thread if you are parting with one

Are you searching with "extended delivery range" turned on? By default, Autotrader includes search results from car delivery brands like Carvana. When I searched locally, I saw the same thing - tons of used Tesla's. But when I removed the car delivery brands, it went down to 19 vehicles for sale

Their quality and design has improved. But as competition heats up, there are areas to further improve. Interior plastics are a bit easy to scratch. Glad to not have piano black though. Wish they had something slightly more durable - not heavy duty, just more resistant to scratches from rings...

VW just started production of the ID4 at the Chattanooga assembly plant. I think the article quoted them with having a production goal of 7000 vehicles/week by 2023. So this particular model will qualify. Interesting to think the Mach-E currently does qualify for the tax credit, but won't...

Still need a couple more in the UP. Between the cold weather and size; it is easy to find yourself pulling up to a campground to get enough charge to make it back to Mackinaw City. E.g. - vacationing in Munising or Copper Harbor isn't impossible, but also not a breeze. Eventually, it looks...

This location is being rebuilt while it is still open for business. The parking lot has a ton of construction equipment, materials and looks to be a staging pad for work going on inside the store. Once the construction is complete, all facilities (including restrooms) should be inline with all...

Car delivered with alignment that was off and a speaker cable that was visible due to the speaker not being mounted flush. During alignment visit, vehicle had steering wheel scratched. Required another visit. Car was delivered with a scratch/dent on interior driver door sill. This was accepted...

My SC let me leave the car on the lot for over a week. Once I landed at the airport, I sent them a text, asking if they would charge it up. They were happy to let the car sit, and charge it up.

Michigan here. Spoiler is being replaced on the 12th by mobile service. Mobile service wasn't immediately available; had to wait 2 weeks (scheduled it back in late June)

This is a perfect location for people towing from Grand Rapids, Kalamazoo, Lansing. In addition, it will be a popular spot for Chicago traffic heading north, or any traffic heading south along the lakeshore.

No. I bought my first Tesla this year, and the build quality was top notch. We are already looking at replacing our last legacy ICE vehicle with another Tesla. Local service center has been great to work with, even pushing up a service appointment because they were available sooner. Delivery...

It is a very durable tab. To the best of our ability, we've pushed it out of the way. Although it does appear like it could interfere, still. We've also been making sure the OEM trunk mat is pushed all the way forward. No luck. Over the past two weeks; the passenger side of the trunk alignment...

One comment I've seen repeatedly is that EVSE pay ToU rates plus "burst demand" rates. Supposedly even if commercial electric rates are 2-3c/kWh, when burst demand pricing is applied, the cost per kWH can exceed $1.00 This seems like a somewhat necessary evil, given the unique demands of EVSE...

In Traverse City, the Supercharger is up to 90c/minute. The Blink CCS charger is 34c/minute. These adapters will be key to alleviating Supercharger congestion, reducing range anxiety (with more options), and introducing competition in DCFC. I do watch the CCS chargers on PlugShare, and agree...

I only ever drove a MYLR in Florida, with the 19" rims and on nice roads. I never drove a MYLR or MYP in Michigan. Got the vehicle in Michigan. Michigan roads are like a war zone. Michigan spends $370/yr per person on road funding - which is the least of any state. The MYP cannot clear speed...

So you really just need to buy new tires for the rear; right? You swap the back tires on to the front, then buy the 295/35/21 for the rear? This setup will provide more sidewall protection and better ride quality? Or do you need 295/40/21 and 275/40/21 for better ride quality?
