    Smelly stinky socks / mold in Model 3 AC

    Thank you for the suggestion re not recirculating the air. That seems counter intuitive because if the air is circulated, then there would be less liquid build up. We're in Sunny SoCal, so it's freaking hot here most of the year. The smell started almost within a few months. We just got...

    Smelly stinky socks / mold in Model 3 AC

    It smelled within the first few months! We're in SoCal... so not much humidity. I do think there has to be a way for Tesla to fix this issue. Better sealing or a fan within a fan. It seems silly to have to change a filter every few months. They charge $149 to clean out but less if they just...

    How to fix when passenger door window does not go down to properly close on Model 3? Tried calibrating window already.

    I have already tried to calibrate the windows several times. The window would come down when opening the door, but the window goes right back up... so I cannot close the door. I have not forced it because the glass will mostly break... I have seen a photo with the glass window broken from...
