    seat belt chime

    My dog is in the backseat of a Model S with the Tesla dog seat cover and the seat belt alerts constantly pop up on the screen as she moves around. You would think that if you are using the official Tesla dog seat cover there would be a way to stop that.

    Cop gave ticket for tinting and no front license plate

    When I was practicing driving at 15 years old on my dad's Trackhawk I was pulled over and given a ticket for the front windows and windshield being tinted too dark. Till today that's been the only time I've been pulled over.

    SURVEY: What, If Anything, Have You Done With Your Car's Brake Calipers? (For Models S, X, 3, & Y)

    A customer at the shop I work at had yellow brake caliper covers installed over their stock breaks on a blue Tesla and I don't usually like that kind of thing but it looked really good not like a shity cover.

    Richard's Body Shop @ Lawrence Ave. Chicago, IL

    Our rates are pretty standard for Tesla-certified collision centers and I'm sure you were given a good estimate we fix many Teslas every day. I'm sorry Progressive was giving you issues. How was the rest of your experience?

    Richard's Body Shop @ Lawrence Ave. Chicago, IL

    I work at Richards and the reason they have openings this week is because they preorder the parts so that they can get cars in and out quickly without having to wait months for back-ordered parts.

    How does requesting/suggesting Superchargers work?

    I've been trying to get superchargers at the Tesla-certified body shop I work at in Chicago and it seems like a pain. We filled out that form a while ago and never got a response.

    Is this a record for the longest repair job

    I work at Richard’s Body Shop in Chicago and to prevent this we constantly order parts in advance and even essentially keep a full model Y and 3 in stock so that we do not need to wait for parts to come. Due to this, while most places have long waits before you can even bring your car in we can...
