    Replaced 2 tires at Tesla for >$1000?!?!?

    I did! But when I initially asked for service, I asked them to check all four wheels and also my shock absorbers. So the initial estimate was several thousand dollars. When I got to the service center, there was no sitting down with one of their people to go over everything in detail or a...

    Replaced 2 tires at Tesla for >$1000?!?!?

    Just went to my local Tesla service center. Told them that my rear 2 tires need to be replaced, and asked that they check the front two tires. Got the final bill and was a little upset. 2 tires @ $350 = $700 2 tire disposal @ $5 = $10 Correction Tires Rear Set $97.50 4 Wheel Alignment Check...

    FSD impending 5th strike

    Gotta say that in the picture it looks like the van is signalling to make a left turn. Can understand why the AP was annoyed. 🤦‍♂️

    FSD impending 5th strike

    The car doesn't disengage when going over the posted speed limit. It disengages if going over 85mph. (I'm guessing this is what you meant?) I definitely didn't have my foot near the accelerator at the time. I actually had my foot ready to touch the break because I wasn't sure what the truck I...

    FSD impending 5th strike

    Didn't think about the shadows issue. It would certainly explain why I've gotten three strikes in the course of a couple weeks when previously I was fine for several months. My drive home is through some mountains as the sun's going down (this time of year), so shadows may be playing a part?

    FSD impending 5th strike

    I was on the highway. In the fast lane, cruising at ~75mph, passing a truck in the slow lane which was doing ~65mph. I had no warning. I think the truck was stable in it's lane. I don't think it was veering into my lane or anything like that... Suddenly I went from smooth sailing into the red...

    FSD impending 5th strike

    An update: A couple days ago I disabled FSD Beta in the Autopilot menu. Yesterday I managed to get a 5th strike anyway while on autopilot on the highway (all five of my strikes were on the highway, BTW). After I parked, I got the following message: FSD Beta has been temporarily removed due to...

    FSD impending 5th strike

    So I’ve got 4 strikes against me in the FSD beta (It says that FSD Beta will no longer operate if Autopilot disables one more time). Kinda sucks since three of those disengagements happened suddenly for no apparent reason. My question: once I get thrown out of FSD beta, can I re-apply? Or...

    How to confirm Wall Connectors is connected to WiFi?

    Thanks. This didn't work on my (Apple) phone, but worked fine on my laptop computer in Firefox. I think I read somewhere else that it doesn't work on Safari (the web browser on iPhone and iPads), but Firefox on my laptop works great. 👍

    How to confirm Wall Connectors is connected to WiFi?

    Once it's connected, is it possible to get back to the commissioning page and check that the latest firmware is installed, etc? Or once it's connected to WiFi there's no point ever connecting to it again? (I kinda wish it could at least be shown on my Tesla app, along with the solar panels and...

    How long to get a Wall Connector?

    Got my Wall Connector today. 9 days after I ordered it. Not bad. Thanks, everyone!

    Certified body shop?

    Actually, I got a call from Devon, PA service center and they showed me how to find a map with all the certified body shops: Tesla.com -> Menu -> Support -> Collision Center Visit -> Hit the map icon to the right of the "Enter Location" field. There aren't nearly as many as I hoped, but there...

    Certified body shop?

    I got into a minor fender bender in my Model Y. The front driver's side fender is scuffed up a bit and likely needs to be replaced. My insurance said to look for a place that I want it fixed. Anyone know how to find a Tesla Certified body shop near Bethlehem, PA? I left a message on my local...

    How long to get a Wall Connector?

    I ordered mine yesterday. Hope to get it within a week, as the electrician wants to finish my project soon. :cool:

    How long to get a Wall Connector?

    The problem isn't the 14-50 outlet. I have one of those in my garage and using it to charge since 2014. The problem is a 14-50 outlet outside. Those need to be protected from the weather, requiring a fairly large box around it. Simpler to just get the Wall Connector.
  16. M

    How long to get a Wall Connector?

    I will say that I never considered that a NEMA 14-50 outlet needs to be in a weatherproof box for outdoor installation, and that it has to be a particularly large box so that the box can be opened and the plug sit in it without damaging the box itself. 🤦‍♂️ In retrospect it makes sense. Just...

    How long to get a Wall Connector?

    Just got off the line with someone from Tesla Wall Connector customer support. She said they have it in stock and it usually takes 2-3 days to ship out and then a week for delivery. 🤞

    How long to get a Wall Connector?

    So I'm putting up an outdoor receptacle for a NEMA 14-50 outlet to potentially be changed to a wall connector in the future. If I buy a wall connector now instead, how long would it take for me to get it? Are they back ordered? Is there somewhere I can call before I put the order through to...

    Car no longer turning on...

    So I just upgraded from an iPhone 11 to iPhone 13 Pro. The Tesla app is synced with the car (using the key card) and the car doors will open when I bring the phone near the car... But the car won't turn on without the Tesla key card or using the app to turn on the car. What am I doing wrong...

    Any of you have 100/99 scores still not get any FSD till today?

    So I was averaging a score of 99 all week, after doing a reset last weekend. When I got home, I checked my score and it dropped to 98... But I got an email stating that they were pushing the FSD beta to me. Looks like the email was sent out while I was driving home and messing up my score. 😆...

    Any of you have 100/99 scores still not get any FSD till today?

    I did a reset. Got a 100 the next day. Then didn't drive one day, and drove the last 5 days. Average score 99. Total miles driven almost 300. Still waiting for the email... But I'm hopeful. 🤞

    FSD for lower Safety Scores?

    Did as you recommended and reset my score yesterday. Have 100% so far. So I guess I have to keep it up for 5 days in a row?

    FSD for lower Safety Scores?

    So you're saying that my score of 95 may get me in before the end of the year? 🤭

    FSD for lower Safety Scores?

    Has there been any announcements on FSD for scores lower than 99? I was hopeful that with the latest software version they would drop the score to 98, but I didn't see any announcement.

    Who with a score of 100 and more than 100 miles is still waiting for FSD roll out?

    Now that they went from a score of 100 to 99 in a week, I'm actually hopeful I'll get it before Christmas. :eek:

    Who with a score of 100 and more than 100 miles is still waiting for FSD roll out?

    Actually, it doesn't seem to be hard for me to keep well over 90 percent. The Tesla score isn't effected by speeding. I've certainly gone 20+ miles over the posted limit without losing any points. In fact, the only thing I routinely lose points for is aggressive turning. I like hard turns...

    Who with a score of 100 and more than 100 miles is still waiting for FSD roll out?

    Stupid question: How can you tell via the app how many miles you've driven? I'm at a score of 95 (so I know I shouldn't expect FSD until next year at the earliest), but I don't see a "Milage analyzed" or similar on the phone app.

    Blog Tesla Plans to Sell Energy to Texans

    Tesla may soak up a lot of $$$ by supplying energy from it's batteries during sub-second undervoltage episodes, kind of like how it works in Australia.

    Poll: Will we see the button before the end of the year?

    I'm sure it would blow my mind if I were allowed to actually get it in my car. For those of you waiting for 3-4 years... I can only commiserate. I've only been waiting a little over a year.

    Premium Connectivity Yearly Subscription?

    So My Model Y is a year old and now I've got to pay for Premium Connectivity. I let it lapse for a couple days, just to see what's the difference, and I'm planning on getting it again. My problem is Tesla doesn't seem to have a yearly subscription model (or I can't seem to find it). They want...

    2020 Model Y Stock Continental Tires

    Just went to my BJs today. They can't get any Continental tires. They recommend Michelin or Goodyear. I'm looking for all-season tires. I live in North-East Pennsylvania (near Allentown). Get moderate snow in the winter and pretty hot in the summer. Not interested in separate winter tires...

    2020 Model Y Stock Continental Tires

    I bought a 6/2020 Model Y Long Range and it came with Continental ProContact tires. The tires don’t say what size they are. How do I find out what size to order them at my local tire store, and what other tires are considered compatible? Does Tesla have a list of recommended tires for me?

    Model Y extended warranty and pre-pay service plans?

    A couple related questions. I understand that the Model Y Long Range has a 4 Year/50k mile warranty. Is there an extended warranty plan available? (source: Vehicle Warranty ) Also, in my previous Model S I was able to pre-purchase service visits. Is that still available? Also, how often are...

    More USB ports in front?

    Would it have killed them to put four USB ports in the front panel of the Model Y? :( One to power the charging pad, one for TeslaCam, one for USB music, and one for a charging cable for those of us with phones that don't charge wirelessly. Just venting a little, after trying to get TeslaCam...

    Tesla Announces Color-Change Wrap Service in China

    I would love to have my Model Y wrapped in a custom color. But I would want it done locally. Only places I saw online were on the west coast, and I live in North East PA. (I love the Matte Military Green half way down this page: Tesla Model S/3/X/Y Complete Vehicle Wrap )

    Service done during COVID

    So this is what happened when I took my car in for service in North East PA. When I got to the service center, I went inside (there was no one outside), and immediately inside the door was a message to log onto a website with my phone to sign in. I was then told to go back to my car and a...

    Service done during COVID

    I don’t have or want Uber or other ride sharing apps on my phone. Too many stories about tracking people even when the apps are closed. Also detest their business model. if they want to order the Uber to and from my house, I guess that's fine. And while I don't want to stay in their place...

    Service done during COVID

    So I'm taking my car in on Monday to get the HVAC system looked at (it makes a vibration when the fan speed is greater than 4). I always expected to stay in the service center until it's done. Now I'm not sure, as they sent me an email yesterday (Saturday) about touchless service (as a covid...

    Low Pitch loud noise from fan

    When I have the speed of the fan higher than 4, there's a low pitch noise that becomes louder as the fan speed goes up. I set up an appointment to take my car in to get it checked. They asked me to make a recording with my phone and send it in prior to the appointment. I did, but...
