    I have a quick question about getting my car repaired after recently being in an accident. I will using a third party Tesla Certified collision shop to complete my repair. Is there any way I can verify if the shop actually used new OEM Tesla parts? Like for example if a tail light needs to be...

    Yolk Steering Peeling Retrofit to Round

    If my yolk steering wheel is peeling can I ask the service team to retrofit to a round steering wheel? Or will they only replace with the yolk? Also if there are bugs in my tail light will they replace the tail light or is that normal?

    Upgrade from Model Y to Model S Worth IT?

    I would love to get the Lucid but the thing thats stopping me from the Lucid is the self driving technology. I think Tesla is probably way better in that regards. Honestly I just wish there was an aftermarket solution to the noise issue. I could try the tires, but the thing is not sure if...

    Upgrade from Model Y to Model S Worth IT?

    So I currently I am a recent owner of a Model Y and was wondering if you guys think it is upgrading to a Model S. I actually really like the Model y. I like the way it handles and I like the space. The main thing that keeps bugging is the highway noise. It is really bad and I commute...

    Our thoughts on FSD Beta now detecting Autopilot cheat devices | TMC Podcast Clip

    I recently got FSD beta on the recent update. I was using it today and my steering wheel gave me a warning that I was using an autopilot antidefeat device. I just recently got this car and have never owned or plan on using one of these devices. I think maybe its too sensitive because if it does...

    How far will current selling prices fall after Jan. 1 ?

    So I recently purchased a MYP for around 66k and I feel really stupid for doing so because since my purchase prices have already fallen and like others have said on this thread it is probably worth 55k-60k right now. I definitely think prices are going to fall a decent amount next year because...

    Charging in winter with extension cord

    So I am a new Tesla owner and have a charging question. I live in an area where we have pretty brutal winters. Prior to my Tesla purchase I got a 14-50 wall connector installed in my garage. I would like to park outside so I can let other people in my fam park in the garage because the amazing...

    Bought Tesla Model Y from Inventory

    Thats funny my car horsepower history has also been similar. I think the 3 has its own benefits one being the handling. One thing already about the Y that kind of bugs me is that since the trunk is open to the cabin theres more noise at high speeds. The three I felt was better because of...

    Curious about Battery Fire Risk

    I still believe you guys are underestimating the potential problem here. I feel like many of you are biased. I think Teslas are amazing from all other perspectives in comparison to regular cars, but this is something that is definitely being slightly overlooked.

    Curious about Battery Fire Risk

    Wow everybody here is very biased. Nobody wants to admit that putting out a battery has its own challenges vs a ICE vehicle.

    Curious about Battery Fire Risk

    Not trying to paint a negative picture as I am in the process of buying one now if you look at my post history. I am genuine worried if I get into a car accident in a tesla vs a ICE vehicle with my family in the car. If the Tesla is more likely to catch on fire during a crash or even randomly...

    Curious about Battery Fire Risk

    Do any of you guys have any worries about driving teslas and them catching fire? I am seeing a lot of videos about Teslas catching fire in crashes, which increases fatality of the crash. I come from driving Mercedes vehicles and they are some of the safest vehicles on the road. I mean if that...

    Bought Tesla Model Y from Inventory

    I have not. I have taken the model 3, model s, and the y for a test drive. I actually the drive of the model 3 the best in terms of handling, but problem was the space. I am 6ft and just fit better in the Y. The 3 felt cramped and the floor was high so my legs were uncomfortable. Plus I...

    Bought Tesla Model Y from Inventory

    Yeah I am very hesitant about the purchase because this will be the most expensive car I have bought in my life and I don't know if its a good idea. Hopefully its worth at least 40k after 3 years.

    So I just pulled the trigger on a used 2021 Tesla Model Y for 66k from Tesla's website. It comes with FSD and it is the performance version and with red exterior paint.

    Hurricane water causing fires

    I would like to start of by saying that I have been interested in getting an EV, but reading some news lately and rethinking everything and I might just stick with ICE for a little while longer. You guys sound really biased by saying that there have not been cases of these fires and frankly...

    $39k Used Model 3's on Tesla Website

    I am actually currently in the market for a 3 or y, but I am hesitant to pull the trigger because I think prices are going to drop further. However, no one can predict the future. I guess it would not be the end of the world if I buy now and lost up to 10k due to price decreases. I honestly dont...

    Thank you this is helpful. I have done some research, but just found the FSD beta thing kind of confusing with people talking about scores on this forum.

    Would you buy again FSD today?

    I am planning on buying a model 3 and debating whether to get FSD vs nothing. According to what I have found on the forums even after I pay the 15k I have to have a certain drivers score to use FSD beta right? I just want to make sure I am understanding this correctly. And if you do not get that...

    Model Y or Older model S

    I posted this in the model s forum and thought I might also post in this sub forum to see if there is any other advice. So I currently own a german ICE vehicle and looking at buying a tesla. I am stuck deciding between a 2018+ model S versus newer 2021+ MYP? Which do you guys think I should get...

    Deciding between MYP versus older 2018+ P100D

    Yeah I could get a 2019. The only other things crossing my mind are the heat pump in the Y because I live in a cold climate, updated radar with vision system, and I prefer the landscape screen. Also would not have to deal with air suspension problems. I dont know though. It would be ideal if I...
