    Do we have any recourse for this insanely poor paint quality?

    Many in the TMC/Model Y community received an email directly from Tesla with subject "Your Model Y All-Weather Protection Kit". Photo of email attached. You may want to reach out directly or check spam folders.

    Do we have any recourse for this insanely poor paint quality?

    Tesla "stepped up" by recently shipping PPF and front mud flaps for free. I realize that is too late for many of us, especially in the midwest where the snow road salt further exacerbates the issue. Also curious on the paint repair cost if anyone has any insight...

    Water in Frunk after touchless car wash

    Not that I'm aware of - looks like I'll have to open it (I despise closing it) and find out since I wash by hand when temps are above freezing.

    No Complaints

    Hands down, best car ever owned and that includes Lexus, MB AMG, Audi, etc. 10 months of ownership and I still look forward to driving every day. OTA software updates are fantastic (although you'll hear a lot of complaints with v11), the cabin is comfortable and silent, the drive is smooth...

    What do you use your "Rear Inner Storage" for?

    Air compressor (with hazard lights), charging adapter, tire repair kit and snow scraper. Cargo liner provides easy access and nothing moves around.

    FSD Check for Model Y?

    No online DB that I'm aware of. Dealer will need to access the MY and check under the VIN on the software menu. Not sure if you would be able to contact Tesla with the VIN to confirm FSD, maybe it is worth a shot? Lastly, not sure I would trust this dealer if they don't know. Probably a good...

    Smoother ride home on 3-15?

    Anyone else feel the ride home today was just a tad smoother? Perhaps this is due to paying $11,000 less for the same build just 9 months ago.

    Hello Tesla'ns!

    Congrats and welcome. You will find the TMC community makes ownership even better.

    Two Model Y Family

    Same dilemma here. Took delivery in June for my 21MYLR and today the same build is $8000 more. Looking closely at the Audi e-tron Sportback since we'll be trading in her 2018 SQ5. Also, cannot ignore the Audi $7500 tax credit which ran out for Tesla a few years back.

    Model Y Headlights Flash in my garage every minute

    Agree with Jim R post. Since you don't leave any lights on I would think a form of light is coming into the garage or there is some sort of charger which is blinking.

    Top glass misalignment, how much is too much?

    Looks similar to mine except for the road salt. I do not have wind noise at highway speeds (80-95mph).

    Complimentary MY All-Weather Protection Kit?

    Just received a shipping notification - they are shipping must faster than expected (ordered 2 days ago).

    Model Y screen Black Out while driving

    Same issue here. Started with 2022.4.5.3 and happening daily. I tried everything. That black screen reboot seems like an eternity when driving at highway speeds. Let's hope the next software release resolves it.

    Complimentary MY All-Weather Protection Kit?

    Just received my email. Promo code works great. Complimentary kit includes: 2x front mud flaps 2x clear protective film for rear fenders 1x squeegee Installation hardware

    nail in tire. this is repairable?

    No brainer - RA to the home. My at home experience was positive - the tech completed my repair, answered all my questions and even performed additional services/checks. Tech was punctual, professional and knowledgeable. Are you willing to share the quoted price?

    nail in tire. this is repairable?

    Sorry to hear. Easy patch. Do it yourself with a $5-10 plug kit or if able, bring to a tire center. Super cheap repair. Tesla SC may want to sell you a new tire.

    MCU & Screen reboot while driving

    Just happened for the first time today after 8 months of ownership. Normal driving (no FSD/no AP) music streaming stopped/froze, black screen, tesla logo and then back to normal. Even though the reboot took under a minute, it wasn't a great feeling driving blind at highway speeds. Fortunately...

    Blocked pillar camera alerts

    Took delivery in June 2021 and it started happening in November (winter months). We only get about 5 days of sun in Chicago (minor exaggeration) but every time the sun is out in winter, I get the pillar blocked message.

    Toggle between driving distance and percentage of battery

    Just noticed that tapping the battery icon will toggle between driving distance and percentage of battery energy remaining. Not sure how much I'll use it but thought it was worth pointing out. Running 2022.4.5.3.

    IPhone no longer works as key

    13 Mini since October 2021, also no issues. Hope this thread is able to identify and remediate the issue. Can't imagine how frustrating that would be. Good luck all.

    IPhone no longer works as key

    yeah - check all contact first and last names for special characters. I recall an old post where someone had "Mom&Dad" in the contact first name which caused the issue. Good luck, again - just spit balling here.

    IPhone no longer works as key

    total long shot here since you've tried everything. Special characters in a contact name has been known to cause connectivity issues. Any chance you've added a contact with parentheses, ampersand, etc.? Good luck forward...

    2022.4.5 Software release

    Also on 2022.4.5, all 4 tires at 42 psi. Did you check while driving or when the MY was idle/cold? Hope you get it back, that would be frustrating.

    Closing the frunk with one hand

    After reading the manual, I decided to limit frunk usage. I applied a coat of wax ahead of winter which made me realize how fragile the material was. Too much pressure removing the wax could cause minor dents/damage. Plenty of storage elsewhere.

    Did I really need a new tire?

    Similar situation here. When told there was a leak in the sidewall I asked for proof and inspected it myself since it was impossible to see without removing the tire. Although minor, it leaves the tire structurally compromised and should never be patched. I was lucky that the tires had less...

    When home, my phone is always close enough for the phone key to authenticate with my MY, so if my charging cable is plugged in it can unlock my car

    Gotta be the proximity of the phone to the carport. Curious - do you have the walk away door lock feature on? If so, does it trigger? My doors auto lock when I'm about 5 feet away from the vehicle. Good luck. From Manual...NOTE: To prevent unauthorized unplugging of the charge cable, the...

    How to make my phone key work model y, new iphone 13

    Same issue when upgrading iPhone from X to 13 mini and kept the same name on the iPhone. I renamed the new 13 mini and went through the setup process again. Worked great - no issues. Hope you find a solution, just sharing my experience. Good luck.

    What is the one feature you would like to see added to the Model Y?

    Heated windshield and wipers would be ideal for midwest winters.

    Dash cam footage access

    Tap the 3 dots, they hid it there. Another V11 Easter Egg.

    Would you pay for FSD if it stayed with the owner, not vehicle?

    Nope. The 12k price is just too steep for a software upgrade. Make it the price of Homelink ($325 today) and I'll consider.

    What is the one feature you would like to see added to the Model Y?

    Hands-free tailgate open.

    Wipers on Auto

    That might be it. My windshield is spotless and the wipers (on auto) went crazy on a drive today. It was the first sunny day in a week. The sun also blinded the right passenger camera which caused a brief 'autopilot unavailable' message.

    2021 EV Tax Credit

    Tax credit ended in 2019. It was disappointing but not a deal breaker. My only surprise was that the Illinois license renewal went up $100 to $250 for the "gas tax". Enjoy the ride.

    Wipers on Auto

    Checked the windshield and noticed/scraped off a tiny squashed bug. We'll see if that fixes things. Thanks for the reply.

    Wipers on Auto

    Anyone having issues with wipers in the auto position? Specifically, when driving on a sunny day, the wipers sporadically go to continuous fast speed and the only solution is to turn them off. There is no moisture hitting the windshield and it only happens on maybe 20% of my drives. I've...

    outside temp

    Anyone else having issues with outdoor temp reading? Garage is 55 degrees while outdoor temp is 20 degrees. Even after a 20-30 minute drive, the outdoor temp is still showing 55 degrees. V11 software. Thx.

    Rear windows rolled down

    Try the window calibration. What setting do you have for the following? DOORS & WINDOWS - in addition to being notified if a door or trunk is left open, you will also receive a notification if Model Y is locked and a window is left open. Curious if you received a mobile alert that the window...

    Low Tire Pressure Warning

    16 PSI loss is too extreme. I went from 42 to 40 when the Chicago temps fell below 32F. Hopefully Service will find it. Did you have Sentry mode on to confirm no practical joke?

    autopark

    Hey all, enjoying the 21MYLR for over 7 months but have never been able to engage the Autopark parking icon. I've followed all the guidance at many different lots. Not a huge deal since i prefer to park further away from the inconsiderate Chicago parkers. Do I need to upgrade to FSD for this...
