    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

    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...

    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?

    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...

    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.

    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

    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...

    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...

    What does FSD get us?

    I'm a newbie to the Tesla FSD. Just got my (new) Model Y a month ago and I paid for the FSD package. Three (-ish) questions: 1. What does FSD add at this point, above autopilot without FSD? 2. How do I tell what hardware version I have? (I would guess all Model Ys have the latest hardware, but...

    EZ Pass location

    Is there a particular location on the windshield to place the EZ Pass? Or is anywhere okay? On some other cars, I know that the windshield would be specially treated to prevent certain wavelengths from getting through, which would block EZ Pass from working.

    Totaled my S and ordered a Y during the pandemic

    12 days ago my March 2014 Model S got T-boned (a car was coming off the highway and ran a stop sign-hit my driver's door). Fortunately I wasn't injured besides a bone bruise on the hip and some black and blues along the waist. My car is totaled and State Farm is giving me $30k (it was a Model...

    Cost of yearly service?

    Friend of mine got his Model 3 about a year ago. The local Tesla service center wants to charge him $500 for yearly service. This is for rotating the tires, lubricating the brakes, and checking the windshield wipers. (And, presumably, things like that.) Is this the going rate for routine...

    Cost to have Model S picked up for service

    I have a 2014 Model S with ~110k miles. Up until now, the local Tesla service center was picking up and dropping off the car without cost and just charging for the actual service performed. I just scheduled for a pickup for service and the service advisor told me that the pickup and delivery...

    Separate install dates for PowerWall and Panels ... Federal Rebate?

    So I took the plunge and will get Tesla solar panels and three PowerWalls. I decided to get the whole thing installed at once. After discussing with the sales person, he wasn't sure if having a split installation (since PowerWalls are delayed by a few months) would allow the PowerWalls to be...

    Excessive wear on leather

    Received my Model S 8 months ago. Most of the time no one sits in the rear seats. About once a week on average, the kids will use the back seats and buckel themselves in. I just noticed while vacuuming the car earlier today that I've got a spot on the rear seat leather where the leather's...

    How much I will save?

    I created a simple formula to figure out how much I save in my Tesla compared to my previous car. Gas Car variables: A = Fuel consumption in miles/gallon B = Cost of fuel in dollars/gallon Electric Car variables: D = Fuel consumption in Wh/mile E = Cost of fuel in Dollars/KWh Savings/mile =...

    A lackluster service experience so far...

    So I had a small issue with the radio reception not being as good as my previous couple cars. I asked that they take the car and check it out. Figured I would get the titanium underbelly shield added at the same time. I requested a loaner car as, well, I need a car for work. I was told not a...
