    why no beep for backup sensor in Model 3? [rear cross traffic warning]

    Tesla Model 3 has 12 ultrasonic sensors. In 2015, Tesla said: "We actually developed a new ultrasonic sensor that is able to do sonar through metal." Tesla uses ultrasonic sensors as proximity sensors for Autopilot. Tesla's ultrasonic sensors cover out to 26+ ft. They just need to turn it on...

    2022 Tesla Model 3 LR Projector to Matrix headlight retrofit

    We hit a problem. Matrix headlights fit in the 2022 Model 3 LR, but they don't have any official retrofit instruction from Tesla, so I don't know how to program the software. My SC sent an e-mail to tesla support, but HQ? now claims that only the Performance model comes with matrix headlights...

    @stopcrazypp Let's say you are in the market for a used car 3 years from now. You knowing that Tesla produced 2022 Model 3s with Matrix and Premium headlights; which version of the Model 3 would you buy if both cars were in identical conditions and miles? Functioning Matrix headlights or Old...

    Well, someone should get fired for that! LOL "Bait-and-Switch Tactics A business marketing a product they do not truly intend to deliver in terms of quality/function is considered bait-and-switch. In a bait-and-switch, the business delivers a product that is of much lower quality than...

    It's been well documented on the internet that tesla switched over to projector/matrix headlights in 2021. As mentioned by @HarpoonS , we can see Tesla still using the matrix headlights for marketing and configuration purposes for customers. I am 1000000% sure that this is intentional because...

    Can I DIY install Matrix headlights since my new Model 3 didnt come with them?

    Actually, matrix headlights were installed on 2020?, 2021 and 2022. CPU + headlight update was publicized in many articles. Both were also “advertised” by Tesla through their SA. Also, then using the matrix headlights on the website is misleading and IMHO falls under the false advertising law...

    I posted this in the other post. Did 2020 and/or 2021 M3LR come with the matrix headlights before? Did you believe your car was going to come equipped with the matrix headlights? If it did previously and Tesla used matrix headlights on their website for people to configure and order...

    Have you asked the Tesla service center for a retrofit? Reflector lights are brighter than Matrix, but I'm more worried about the resale value of my car getting stuck with reflector headlights.

    Forgot to mention that "You may opt out of arbitration within 30 days after signing this Agreement by sending a letter to: Tesla, Inc.; P.O.

    I’m having a similar issue with the service center. They damaged my bumper paint and noted touch-up paint cover up falls within quality standards on the invoice before I even picked up my car.

    Damaged paint at Tesla service center

    My car was at a So. Cal Tesla service center, and they offered to internally remove some deep scratches on the bumper to address delivery issues.

    I accepted the reflector headlights, and I can confidently say (after comparing) that the reflector headlights are brighter than the matrix headlights. I don’t think the matrix headlights turn with the steering. I could see both reflector and matrix getting a software update to level up...

    Here’s a summarized discussion on Matrix vs. Premium headlights from discord and r/. Comparing Matrix vs. Premium on Tesla 3, (two m3, one mS), drivers felt Premium headlights were slightly brighter. According to Audi drivers, Matrix headlights don’t work in urban areas.

    Yes, a software update can make the reflector headlight level go up and down. Yes, if you have the matrix headlights, you probably won’t see the pothole underneath the car in front of you until it’s too late.
