Yes but kinda hard to do. I took videos of the UI screen seriously malfunctioning in to the SC but got nowhere anyway. I am hoping the bucking shows up on the print out of info I requested.

You may be correct about getting rid of it but unless the dealer will take it back I would be passing along an unsafe car to someone else. But you are most definitely wrong about finding a solutionon this forum. Your members are far more knowledge about the quirks of the model 3 than the service...

We had a previous issue with the seat belt sensor reporting that the seat belt was removed when it wasn't causing the car to stop in traffic. SC replaced seatbelt sensor.

Been told that seat sensors need 135 lb driver to work. That was from SC.

Sounds like you have an extra 50 g to play with but we don't. Tesla SC has assured me repeatedly the car is safe to drive. Please stop trolling me I am looking for a solution to fix the car.

Unfortunately the car is past warranty, past California lemon laws AND we did not sign to opt out of Tesla purchase contract, which requires arbitration anyway. We would like the SC in Sacramento to repair the car but they keep saying that it is performing as expected. We then asked SC to make...

Creep. And it was uphill.

While driving less than 5mph in a parking garage up a fairly steep incline, my car started to well, buck is the only word that comes to mind. Jumping back and forth from drive to reverse or it felt like. I was too busy hanging on to the steering wheel to look. I was particularly terrified as I...

Yes, we would love to sell it. But it will be difficult to get good value for it with the current apparently unfixable problems.

What options are there if the local service center refuses to acknowledge, let alone repair, the serious problems I have with a 2018 Model3? I don't mind to pay whatever it costs to fix it but will not shell out another $225 only to be told nothing is wrong (but will eventually get fixed by...

I have shown it to service advisors, managers and mechanics at the Sacramento service center. They pretend they aren't seeing it. They refuse to acknowledge the video and keep telling me there is nothing wrong. As in "expected vehicle behavior". I feel as though I am stuck in the Monty python...

When it happens in the garage, it's kinda funny. Not so very funny when it happens in parking lots or on the road. My car has also shut down while moving in traffic and accelerated while moving in traffic. I am losing confidence in this car even after driving it for 3 years.

Sacramento Tesla service center had this to say regarding the "phantom" images on the touchscreen interface. We noted that 2 problems exist: screen shows objects (motorcycles, trucks, bodies) not actually present AND does not vehicles that are present. The response from Tesla: " This is...

At the service center, the mechanic printed graphs of the data from all sensors for the day my aunt's model 3 shut down in traffic. Can we get this data ourselves? A graph would be nifty, but even the data in table form would suffice. Thanks.

Off

Going thru a tesla nightmare trying to help my aunt. Her Model 3 shuts down in traffic and randomly accelerates. Her touchscreen shows things not actually happening. It has 1800 miles on it. It is unsafe to drive. All the tesla service center can say is that she is at fault. She must have...

Nah, I am dreambuttannie

Bruna the service advisor says ALL teslas are in Beta mode. This was in response to the car shifting into park while in motion.

My Tesla service adviser told me that all Teslas are in Beta mode. What could she possibly have meant? I understand some features are still a test mode.

Has anyone experienced your Model 3 screen showing things not there? I get motorcycles, bodies, flying tractor trailers...but the service center folks just shrug.

you did better than the local tesla repair! they tried to blame it on her being 100 lbs. They did finally print out a report from the day it happened and then informed her she had taken off her seat belt while the car was in motion (she wears it to back out of the garage!). They finally replaced...

not really relevant, but she is petite. Dealer told us if you are less than 135lbs, the seat may not sense you

My aunt's Model 3 shifted itself in park and shut down twice within 5 minutes. Tesla says she must not have been in driver's seat, although they also noted the car was moving at a low speed. She was in driver's seat, had not moved at all and was wearing a seat belt. I am scared to drive in the...
