We had scheduled the vehicle to be inspected on Jan 11, but after talking to Tesla Corporate they decided that they did not want to do this in good faith. We were sent a Service Agreement for $267 to check the bolts on the rear. If anyone needs to see the PDF let me know. It's kind of crappy.

So just an update. We drove back from Florida to Texas, the wheels stayed on. I managed to reach someone at corporate Tesla Corporate Resolutions and after explaining how unsafe the vehicle was and that we feel checking the bolts from time-to-time is now on our maintenance list, they felt it was...

Driving through Mississippi back to Texas, there was a weigh station for large trucks on both sides of the highway. In the middle was what looked like a height radar to check if a truck went past the weigh station. We are extremely grateful that there was nobody behind us, but the car phantom...

BTW your Tesla is F*****ing AWESOME. Whatever you did to it makes me want to scream :D

Lindenwood, I feel the car is fine for the moment - you're right. I just have to convince my wife that there's nothing else loose in the vehicle that can cause an accident. We're going to research what else other than tires could cause an accident and make sure those parts are secured properly...

I can't tell you how much I appreciate you doing this for us. I'll make sure my wife sees your post and we check it time-to-time. I think she'll feel a bit safer seeing that the bolts are in place before we do any more long trips. We're driving back to Texas on Jan 2nd so we'll probably do a...

Thanks Avid! I think we're going to take a look from time to time to make sure everything is still tightly in. I really appreciate you letting us know how to find these bolts. You rock! I would honestly suggest anyone reading this to just have a check to make sure they're fully in place. God...

When the car got towed to Tesla's shop, they put our car in front of 30+ cars and had replaced the entire underneath of the car and the bolts in less than an hour. Usually these repairs take weeks to months, but I think they realized this was a pretty serious situation and wanted us to "be...

That's EXACTLY what I was really concerned about. The car was rock solid. We had only 1 sign that this was possible, which was turning to the left had a creaking noise, but researching said it was lubrication issues. We washed the car, the creaking went away. Then 20 minutes later the right...

It's terrible this is happening to other people. Was Raj K's vehicle in the recall for their VIN #? Because ours was not, yet all of the vehicles recalled had the same model & year as our car. We're a Musk family - we believe in Elon's mission to mars, his dreams of making the world better &...

Here's the photos. Working on the videos still.

I'm not sure, I just know the joint was on the ground and it shredded through a plastic cover underneath - definitely not something easily accessible to someone.

It was completely covered by a plastic panel. I have to get all the photos posted so you guys can see.

Sorry to alarm anyone, but this may save your life (and your family's life). This issue was in a recent recall, and our VIN number was NOT included in the recall, however, the problem occurred anyways on our car. Luckily nobody was hurt. After 29,000 miles, the front passenger tire decided to...

Yehhhh Wife's iPhone 14 Pro Max is in a phone case that protects it from being run over by a car, and it won't charge. I think she even tried taking it out of the case and it still wouldn't charge. 2021 Model 3 She said she's ok without the charger. My Pixel Pro 6 charges great though; now...

My faith in customer service with Tesla was totally renewed because we had an Onsite technician come out (Ryan) out here in the DFW / Midlothian TX area. This guy was A+++ AWESOME. Our glove box was wired to the audio, so when you tried opening it, it would make an audio noise (someone...

Well I'm not sure if it's a Texas thing, because I would be happy with an 800 number for anywhere in US.

I'm more comforted knowing I'm not the only one with that opinion.

According to Tesla's Safety Score website, we will start getting a score soon. Our software version meets the requirements.

We got more for our 2015 GMC Terrain than trading in a 2008 Z51 Corvette. So we kept the corvette. If anyone is wondering, we got our Tesla for $41,000 - Financed with Capital One at 5.38% for 60 or 72 months, average monthly will be $725. Some would say I paid too much, others would say...

Hey guys here come the pictures. Oh and does anyone know why when I open the glove box it makes 2 loud knocks and does nothing? I tried scheduling service with Tesla and I can't get a hold of anyone. Apparently there's only 3 places to service a Tesla near Dallas. Also anyone know why the...

When my wife gets home I will take pictures - hopefully the Beta features that I turned on were not related to FSD. Hopefully they're gone! Now if I want to participate in the beta program, is that impossible now? Advice on how to sign up for that?

This is extremely good advice. I will need to read the manual. We got the car at 8 PM with a 3 hour drive home, so reading the manual should have been done before we came to get the car. We had no idea what we were getting into. I'm glad that FSD Capability and FSD Beta are not the same thing...

Ok so the previous owner removed, Full Self Drive came off the car yesterday - I had the FSD on when I brought it home Saturday night (when I came up with the list up top). I will get pictures tonight, you guys can let me know if I should turn off FSD or keep it on - Also why would Tesla charge...

Oh and at the top of my screen while it was driving on its own it said "Chill".

So you guys are all probably correct about the beta. I bought it from a dealership Saturday and it had someone else's name on it - because our the dealership didn't know how to remove them. We ended up barely getting home because we couldn't supercharge. I remember seeing a list of checkboxes...

Yeh I just got a 2021 Tesla, and it's Nov 2022 - We were pretty rattled after the car nearly caused a backend collision on a highway exit. It was yielding I think, but we were the ones to be yielded to. I took over - scary stuff. Also happened while approaching an intersection. We had a green...

First off, I realize there are other threads - but I wanted to start one anyways. We just picked up a 2021 Model 3 with Full Self Drive capability. I believe I turned on Beta by mistake, and the car is doing weird things. My first warning: READ THE OWNER'S MANUAL some. It clearly states...

I just bought a 2021 Model 3 and it ran a stop sign on FSD. But my wife used it this morning and it stopped her at one. I think maybe we should uncheck the "Beta" checkboxes? BTW this is my first post, sorry if this enrages anyone! :) Hi hello :)
