    Front Passenger Safety Restraint System Fault

    Good news: the repair was complete on attempt #3. There were no other hardware repairs, and the service center eventually realized that they needed to run another firmware update. After that was complete, the problem was gone. All in all, they had to keep the car for a total of 8 days (7...

    Front Passenger Safety Restraint System Fault

    Newest update... I hope this helps somebody someday. After the seat replacement (repair attempt #1), the Service Center technician was advised by the engineer to replace the main body controller on the right side. Today, the replacement was made (attempt #2), but the error still appeared. I...

    Front Passenger Safety Restraint System Fault

    Joining this fun, fun club. The car was 6 days old when I first encountered this message. It seemed to be triggered anytime I turned on the front and back defrosters on "auto." Tesla has spent 2 full days with the vehicle and has replaced the passenger seat entirely. The error is still...

    Model 3 - LR AWD Waiting Room

    I'm happy to report that I took delivery today without incident! My wait time was only 36 days from order to delivery. I am still a bit stunned. It's hard to believe that the car in this photo is MINE and not some other LR MSM that I've passed on the street... A few parts of the pickup...

    Model 3 - LR AWD Waiting Room

    Hmm. I've finalized my delivery via text and phone call with a few different Sales Associates/Tesla employees. At first, they automatically selected "home delivery" for me, but I felt better going into a store for pickup in case there were any issues to discuss. Even though I've selected the...

    Model 3 - LR AWD Waiting Room

    5 hours later, received the text to schedule delivery! Picked March 15 morning. The day before was also available, but only after dark. I'd prefer to see it in daylight. Weird thing happened: it looks like they'll be delivering to my home? Every conversation I had before this, they indicated I...

    Model 3 - LR AWD Waiting Room

    Another good experience directly contacting my Sales Associate. I received a VIN and EDD of March 10-16 on Monday. I sent a text earlier today saying "Heya - Really looking forward to next week! Is there any update on when I may be able to schedule my delivery? Thanks a lot." He called me...

    Based on my experience with the Chevy Bolt and charge point, the connector is a J1772. Tesla includes an adapter to this plug type with the purchase of the car

    I tried to call Tesla Insurance twice to collect a quote. Both times I sat on hold for 10+ minutes. That told me all I needed to know.

    Model 3 - LR AWD Waiting Room

    Question for those who have scheduled their pickup from a dealer: I received my VIN 48 hours ago. Finished paperwork. The scheduled delivery says "March 10-16." How long until I can schedule the actual delivery? Thanks!

    VIN 192XXX was said to have updated chip and battery so one might assume this will be the case going upward

    Model 3 - LR AWD Waiting Room

    I just had an interesting experience—the timing seems a little too close to be coincidence! First, background: Chicago, M3LR, MSM, Black, Aero, no FSD. OD - 2/7 First EDD (given 2/7) - "March 2022" Second EDD (given 2/7) - 3/2-3/30 Third EDD (given 2/21) - 3/6-3/20 - Fourth EDD (given 2/28) -...

    We have the same configuration, payment, and order date—let's stay in touch! My current EDD is March 6-20, and I'm in Chicago.

    I think we need to examine some other factors. What was your payment method, and did either of you have trade ins?

    Hi all. I have a Model 3 Long Range on order in the USA. For those who have found the VIN in their source code, what query did you find it under? I've tried the following, but not sure which method is outdated: "5YJ" "Encoded" "InsuranceF" Thanks!

    Anyone else's app stuck on this "loading" screen? I can only assume it means they're going to deliver my vehicle tomorrow, on day 17 😂 /s

    We have very similar EDDs right now (although I ordered well after you), hope my VIN is not far behind!

    Just had my NEMA 14-50 finished as well! Proud to say I'm the only owner in a condo of ~50 units with a charger available. Our garage had no regular outlets, even!

    That sounds accurate, but no promises from me! I'd recommend calling around and setting up consultations and estimates. Allin comes highly recommended though!

    Chicago Electricians for EV Charger Install

    Hey @mross16, My condo installation was a doozy... I had 3 contractors come out and assess the job. My guess is that it's as expensive as it ever would be because of the infrastructure of my building. I live on floor 9, and my parking space is on floor 3. Each contractor agreed that we...
