I have had problems with my FOBs since day 3. I think this must be a NFC issue as the card and my iPhone work as designed.

This is what I settled on. They are not Tesla OEM tires, but Michelin has made a lot of Tesla OEM tires. Also I like the ratings better. https://tinyurl.com/yc7d4ww8

It is not a secret - call Tesla's main number and use the menu for delivery questions. The people answering the phone CAN see the car's location if they want to. Just like an owner can through their Tesla App. That said if they are snowed by calls the person you are speaking with may not be...

It happens everywhere and there is no check mark in the "Except Home" box.

Yes. And I have turned that setting off, rebooted both the iPhone and the Tesla, turned the iPhone on and reset the autolock on leaving switch without getting the desired result.

My 2021 Model S LR developed an auto door lock issue. The car does not lock when I walk away from the car with my iPhone. The car does "see" me and present handles when I approach. I can lock the car with the Tesla app. I never experience that with my two previous Model S cars that used the...

I just noticed that the manual says to place transponders (EZ Pass, Toll Roads, Association Gates, etc) in the lower passenger corner of the wind shield. This is a change from my 2014 and 2017 Model S cars. Is this really necessary? Our HOA has placed readers so they favor the top center of...

Well the market went up just over 28% in the last 12 months. Considering the average of a decades is in the range of 10%, maybe you should consult Yogi Berra about predicting the future --- oh darn Yogi is dead.

They can be rotated, but they way most people thing. The tire rotation direction along the roadway is critial/important. So to move the Right Rear tire to the Left Rear, the tire must be taken off the Right Rear Rim and put on the Left Rear Rim. That means re-balancing again also. Some...

Maybe a lot of the EDD bush back results from this letter sent to "Everybody" on November 26th Per my email several weeks ago, our focus this quarter should be on minimizing *cost* of deliveries, rather than spending heavily on expedite fees, overtime and temporary contractors just so that cars...

The moving EDD and other features you experienced were much like mine. So far I can read everything I have been told by SA, texts & emails to be consistent with this sequence: * I got a short (5 day) EDD window when the car left Fremont on a train to Birmingham, AL. The EDD's earliest date is...

Call Tesla factory at 888-518-3752. They told me where my Tesla was (on a rail road car) and when it should finish the final truck delivery leg to my delivery location. The hours are 9:00am to 7:00pm EST

This week I have had a number of events - here is the complete story, including previously posted items. Tuesday, Nov 16th at 4:28pm I got an email saying time to send your final payment. I had not setup a trade-in just to avoid the date window running out. At 10:30 that morning, my EDD...

I have not heard from Alpharetta yet. I checked my EDD this morning and it was in 2023. I did get an email about 4:30pm which I did not see saying it was time to send them money. I did Katie (the SA who is working with me) asking her to ping the car. I don't know that can be done, but it has...

My EDD in November 30 - December 5

Today out of the blue I got a VIN and a 6 day delivery window. Yesterday my EDD was February 27 - March 27. I have a 2021 product. VIN is 5YJSA1E54MFxxxxxx RN 11524 placed July 1, 2022. White; Black interior, 19s and FSD. Delivery to Alpharetta, GA (north Atlanta suburb) This is my third...

So how do you put the car into "deep sleep"

Yes. You seem to have the opinion you are perhaps not the only, but likely to most important customer the system has to deal with. Your delivery location may be getting a dozen or so Model S units and certainly many more Model Y and 3 units. I don't know, but I expect the inspection process...

I was told Delivery & Sales teams get credit/evaluation based on delivered cars. Not only would I refuse to accept a car I could not inspect the interior of, I would change my delivery location. Fortunately there are 3 locations between 45 and 85 miles from my home.

Had that problem with my 2014 Model S. I sent an image of the VIN to my agent (State Farm in Georgia). They forwarded that to some State Farm office in Illinois who did some magic with the Georgia DOT and then it all worked out. I paid cash for that car, so the lack of a VIN was just a pain...

How many days of snow do you get? Winter tires used to be a good idea 40 years in Michigan or Iowa. There is the thingy call climate change and so far that is moving in the direction of less winter for the USA. You have all wheel drive. As you might guess, I would take All Seasons -- they...

OK got to ask, how did you determine there is a bag of insulation?

Will someone please tell me what the "worm issue" is? Google has not been helpful.

Please reduce my ignorance. How do you see inventory in another part of the country? I am in North GA if that matters.

People post their Reservation Number -- well four digits of the number. What digits are they posting? Random? First? Last?

I am happy with my 2017 Model S as delivered. I am aware the Model Y, despite over a year's experience with the Model 3 suffered serious panel gap problems. While I did not personally witness Delivery people saying this, I read too many stories about Delivery Specialists saying differences of...

I understand there are several under the hood changes, new steering yoke, new screens, etc. What I am looking for is what changes are there are externally. Are there new fenders? Hood? Doors? -- The kind of stuff that will affect panel gaps. I am thinking about a new Model S, but have zero...

You absolutely can not replace the main breaker -- doing so will fry the wires between the electric company and your breaker box. Might start a fire. For sure will leave you without electricity for days - maybe many days. This is a situation that requires a licensed, good electrician. You...

There are not a lot of parts in common between S/X and 3/Y. If the issue is a chip shortage, I expect they would make S/X because they have more profit dollars per car. I don't think there is any difference in terms of energy credit value Tesla sells to the ICD folks.

Musk tells more lies about autopilot than Trump does about his election.

Any Lithium Ion battery's degrades and that degradation is measured in/by battery cycles. The larger your battery, the less cycles it takes to go any distance. In my view the last thing you want is the smallest battery offered. If there are three offered, the middle size might be a cost...

I have nothing against "Silky Smooth" -- I would however be much happier with Automatic Windshield Wipers. Is there any car seller for over $35,000 other than a Tesla without Automatic Wipers?

Are you aware that HW2 does not yet "read" speed limit signs? Rather the speed limit, as far as the car is concerned, depends on GPS readings and a database of posted speed limited downloaded to the car. There are limits on AutoSteet's speed - I believe it cannot be set more than 4 or 5 mph...

Earlier today I got a text from the local Service Department. They had pushed a firmware update. I installed it and a huge improvement. Good enough I would never have complained to Tesla or posted here if things had started this way. Is it perfect - no. If I look, it is not perfectly...

In the last couple of days I have learned a lot. The serious, veering to the right across multiple lanes happened when the car had 50 miles on the odometer. Now it has 297 miles and I can report things have improved - not to the level I would trust using AutoSteer in heavy traffic - but...

This is not an alignment issue. It is straight as an arrow going down the road with only TACC.

A Question about 8.1 firmware with HW2 Model S Took delivery on Friday - June 23rd. Previously had one of the first Tesla's with HW1 and was familiar with how AutoSteer can work. Today I took my first "InterState" drive and the results surprised me. I was on a divided road - 4 lanes in...

I understand your frustration. I took delivery on my first Model S November 6, 2014 -- one of the very first Teslas with HW1 (VIN 58564) It was exciting and really nice to get Traffic Aware Cruise Control which came after steering wheel buzz for leaving one's lane. The other major item I...

No it is not normal. The first thing to try is a "reboot" of the main computer. If this does not solve the problem call Tesla service.

I have a Model S D90 that has been confirmed. As far as I know no production date has been established. In reading this thread, I understand some people get their production date through the Delivery Specialist system and other via MyTelsa. My Owner Specialist stated I will received email...

Very true - but a Tesla does not have a large lithium ion battery. Rather some small batteries. Well OK several small batteries.

John can you tell me where the spreadsheet you refer to is? I would be happy to enter my data and would greatly enjoy seeing other's data! (I have ordered my second Model S with a June delivery date expected.)

My drive has a 13 degree slope - garage above street level. When Summon first came out it would not work on slopes greater than 10 degrees. Since I have not heard anything, I suspect things have not changed for my Model S with Hardware 1. But I have another Model S on order which will have...

Folks do not be too concerned. This is just what happened with AP1's autosteer. I tried it a couple of weeks out of the gate and decided to wait. Even a few months out I found the system happily running me up an interstate exit ramp at 75 mph. While I don't know, I believe using and over...

With an attitude like that I can see how any Tesla DS would work overtime and pull strings to try and help you. Good luck

When I bought my Model S in Georgia, it was a 'Factory' purchase because of deanship laws. At the that time, I also had an unexpected extension of delivery date, like yours. Contact your DS if you have one. In not contact Fremont or a local Sales location. In my case there was an error that...

Nick I have an AP1 ModelS and initially as the system was turned on, I saw only vehicles in my lane as I recall. Trucks and motor cycles were not initially distinct either. Whether that was by design or a correction process is something Elon has not called me about yet.

I may be naive, but until I see indications Fremont has stopped producing 100D units, I figure things are not serious. Cars are not small or inexpensive items. Last month in the USA Tesla sold 2,550. While only a few are 100D units, it does not take many fill up a "dealer" lot. That said, I...

Well I don't agree. According to Wiki (and other sources) Mobileye is a big deal in the area. Among other things they found a very good way to send several seconds of video plus car parameters is very small data packages - very nice when you are limited to a cell phone. Additionally, I would...
