    Cry me a river at least you got something. Local staff basically told me to eat *sugar* 🤣

    Sub Par Service Experience @ Tesla Renton (Seattle)

    I've owned a model 3 for 3 weeks coming from a Lexus ES I had for 4 years. Whether it's customer service relating to sales or maintenance Tesla standards or lack there of are unacceptable when compared with anything approaching a similar msrp. It is in that respect that I already miss my Lexus...

    Model 3 SR+ LFP Battery Range, Degradation, etc Discussion

    Honestly I just was under the mistaken impression that temperature issues only kicked in at sub freezing temperatures as that was where most of the discussions seemed to focus. Lesson learned. Can the battery be preconditioned efficiently while charging at 120v 15a ?

    Model 3 SR+ LFP Battery Range, Degradation, etc Discussion

    I made two super charger stops and pre conditioned both times. The first stop was leaving my home with a 12min drive time and even though pre conditioning started immediately the drive was not long enough to warm up the battery in 45 degree weather resulting in reduced charging. The second...

    Poor Experience buying a Tesla Model 3

    Me bringing up the processer switch was an example of the advisor lacking fundamental knowledge about the car. While that point had no real impact the active misinformation he provided about non existent tax benifits on my trade did. Had I not validated on my own I could have lost thousands on...

    Poor Experience buying a Tesla Model 3

    I appreciate your reply and offer a counter point. Most retailers offer some sort of price protection for a period of 14 to 30 days. In of itself the price change is a pain point, but when you add the poor experience with multiple advisors, broken component within a week, and now multiple...

    Poor Experience buying a Tesla Model 3

    I am posting my story wondering if anyone will read it or frankly care. The statement bellow was originally intended for Tesla, at least whichever department handles complaints (if there even is one) but my post purchase survey gave me little room to deliver my account of my experience and my...
