    First time charging - range question on MYLR

    Quick update to keep everyone posted - I got a lawyer to send a demand letter seeking the difference in price for LR and SR - I am going to keep the car and see if I can get the difference so I can pay that towards the loan. More to follow - the lawyer said it could take a few weeks and that was...

    First time charging - range question on MYLR

    So to give everyone an update - Carvana offered me a $100 check because of the inconvenience - however; the car they sold me is definitely a Standard Range - not a Long Range, so I've hired a lawyer to see if I can get the difference between the two cars in compensation - I have a loan for a...

    First time charging - range question on MYLR

    I contacted them today and they said they checked the VIN and it was a long range - to which I replied by sending them a picture of the window sticker with the VIN on it clearly showing the range of 279 miles and it didn’t say long range on the sticker - I have to wait another 24 hours for the...

    First time charging - range question on MYLR

    Hi Keith - I paid $48,900 which is what the long range models are selling for in this area with the same mileage on them (1900 miles) - they definitely sold me a standard range - even the sticker it came with shows the range for a standard range - my portal on Carvana shows that it is a long...

    First time charging - range question on MYLR

    Thank you for the advice, this is very helpful - I could theoretically keep it at 50% charge because I haven’t driven in the last two days, but you’re right, the range anxiety is real and sometimes I do have to drive 60 miles in a day if I have to go to the office. I really wish it would have...

    First time charging - range question on MYLR

    Thank you for the help - I logged a ticket with Carvana to see what they’re going to do about it, but they definitely sold it to me as a LR - I might have misread the picture and put 3 instead of 8

    First time charging - range question on MYLR

    I got the VIN off my contract - maybe I was looking at the trade in VIN, but anyhow I just looked at my car and got the correct VIN - 7SAYGDEE8PA1xxxxx - I'll look at the VIN website now to try to decipher it.

    First time charging - range question on MYLR

    Shoot - that doesn't seem to help - my VIN is ZACCJBCB5HPG54971 and that didn't seem to align to the codes on the website - maybe I'm looking at it wrong, but plant of manufacture didn't line up to Fremont or Austin and digit 8 lined up to a dual motor model 3 which can't be right. I reached out...

    First time charging - range question on MYLR

    I checked the sticker when I just got home and it definitely says AWD and my Carvana portal states that the car is a long range which can’t be based on the last charge - I’m about to reach out to their customer support channel to see what they say

    I’m not close to the car right now, otherwise I’d check

    First time charging - range question on MYLR

    I didn’t think about that - I didn’t realize there was a difference when I bought it - I’ll have to check my contract and see what it says - they did include the original sticker in the trunk and I’ll have to check what it says - I do remember it saying dual motor on the sticker, but I don’t...

    First time charging - range question on MYLR

    I downloaded PlugShare so I’ll definitely use that to see where to charge - I probably won’t drive for the next 3 days or so, is it safe to charge to 100% or should I stick to 80%? My garage is a single car garage totally enclosed, so my car is safe while it’s charging - definitely a perk and...

    First time charging - range question on MYLR

    Great information, thank you! I don’t have the option to install a charger at home since I’m in an apartment - I have a 120v plug in my garage, but no access to the panel, so I can’t modify it for a 240v charger. I’ll set the max charge to 80% and see how I manage the mileage, I don’t think it...

    First time charging - range question on MYLR

    I’m not sure what that is, sorry I’m new to this - I bought it used from Carvana with 1900 miles on it.

    First time charging - range question on MYLR

    Thank you for the detailed information, I really appreciate it - mine must have the 4680 battery... is it ok to leave it on the wall charger when I'm at home - I probably won't drive more than 120 miles per week as I work from home and don't get out and about too much during the week. I live in...

    First time charging - range question on MYLR

    Hello everyone, first time posting - I looked for an answer but one didn’t pop up - I bought at ‘23 MYLR and charged it for the first time over the last couple of days - I’m using the 120v wall charger - my car only charged up to a 270 mile range - I thought I could expect closer to 310 or so...
