    2021+ Model S and Model S Plaid Refresh Issues Thread

    Not trying to be snarky, but really? The biggest complain is that you’re missing a cover in your trunk that is back ordered and will be sent to you when available? Should Tesla have just not delivered the car at all until that piece was avail? Park assist is not auto park. Park assist is the...

    2021+ Model S and Model S Plaid Refresh Issues Thread

    Model S and X have always included Home Link since it's been offered. The first batch of Model 3's also included HL, before Tesla started charging for it as an add-on after delivery for the 3 and Y. As others have stated, software updates improve the experience for the most part, but sometimes...

    Wiki Model S Delivery Update

    I am not in disagreement. I think AP is phenomenal compared to past versions. It keeps the car centered, smooth and no phantom braking. Automatic lane change and stops at lights aren't a huge deal to me. If given the choice, I'd opt for EAP, because I do utilize summon and auto park (which is...

    2021+ Model S LR Delivery Tracking

    I think you have to spend some more time with the yolk. We have all driven vehicles with round steering wheels since we obtained our driver's license, so this is a big change. There is a learning curve and it requires one to change their driving style (how you hold the yolk, etc.) Your muscle...

    Tesla quote for LR was 120/mo Agreed. In the past there were cash crunches and Tesla needed quick cash infusions. That does not seem to be the case anymore. Some people believe in the Tesla mission and are okay with supporting the R&D it takes to develop FSD. Unclear at this stage, but for...

    2021+ Model S LR Delivery Tracking

    Tesla also produces cars in batches, by color. Tesla may have 290 reservations for a White Plaid with Cream interior and they build 300 cars in that configuration. Accordingly 10 cars would go into inventory. Tesla has been releasing next year model cars in the fall over the past few years...

    Wiki Model S Delivery Update

    It is not uncommon for support people to be unaware of beta features. If you run beta software on your iPhone, you can't go into the Apple Store and have the Genius explain features that may be present in beta software, but are not enabled in a publicly released version of iOS. The rear...

    2021+ Model S LR Delivery Tracking

    Another gripe, that I hopes gets corrected in a future software update... The Instrument Cluster screen does not have the ability to assign functions to the left and right portions (clock, energy, media, fan, etc.), as in pre-refresh Model S and Model X vehicles. Moreover, it does not even...

    500 mile update (re features/issues not regularly posted about): The Good (unexpected): - Autopilot is super smooth - Air from perforated seats is noticeable and strong The Bad: - Dash, center console and passenger's side door wood trim is cracked and splintered (SC to replace) - Charge port...

    2021+ Model S LR Delivery Tracking

    We’re still in Q3. Tesla has made EOQ and EOY accommodations in the past, when it is trying to sell product. Typically, it has offered free super charging for a period of time. Since demand outstrips production right now, my educated guess is that we are unlikely to see any accommodations this...

    2021+ Model S LR Delivery Tracking

    Yes, that refers to the software version, not the model year of the car. So, 21+ refers to version 21 software 2021.24.4. .32.5, .32.10, etc. It is not a tipoff to model year 2021+ or 2022.

    The 100 miles is to reject and return the vehicle. Any issues you have should still be covered by the new car warranty.

    Wiki 2021+ Model S Refresh - Missing/Incomplete Software Features

    Anyone figure out how to easily navigate from one USB memory stick to another?
  15. RMG007

    Wiki Model S Delivery Update

    Yes and Yes From my understanding, not worth the hassle LR too Driving around factory, testing to make sure it runs properly, etc. All new cars come with some miles on them. 15 is fairly standard. Manual is designed for many different countries where options vary by law

    No Others say 44/16 works See above At what sample rate? Seems Tesla also refers to Plaid as Performance Plus and Dual Motor Plus

    @omarsultan what software version are you running? Others have posted 32.5 enables flac support

    Then it is 32.5 that allows .flac support 🥳

    No cite, personal experience. The USB stick I have with .flax files played fine in my Model 3, but shows loading errors on every song in my Model S.

    Yet the same USB stick worked fine in my Model 3

    Wiki Model S Delivery Update

    Delivery Centers do not have the most recent software to update cars, which seems dumb. .flac is not currently supported in the refreshed S That is standard. Most have ~15 miles and Tesla used to always list 50 on delivery docs. There is an issue with your car that Tesla should be working on...

    2021+ Model S LR Delivery Tracking

    For those still waiting: Biggest surprise: AP. I have FSD and it is way smoother than the FSD I had on the Model 3. I’m impressed by how good it really is. Biggest disappoint: The sound system. Not nearly as good as the Model 3, although others have posted it is vastly improved with 2021.32.5...

    2021+ Model S LR Delivery Tracking

    It does get loud without distortion. But compared to the Model 3, it does not sound as good. I'm on 2021.424.4. My understanding is that 32.5 is just starting to roll out. Hopefully I will have it soon.

    2021+ Model S and Model S Plaid Refresh Issues Thread

    The sound in the newly refreshed S is definitely not as good as in the Model 3. However, I read in another thread that 2021.32.5 remedies this and the poster said the audio was now "4x better" I agree with most everything in your post. I have the rear windshield glass distortion, but it doesn't...

    Mini Review and Thoughts For You All 1/27/21 Ordered MS LR Red/Cream/Arachnids/FSD. Delivered in San Diego 8/30/21. Car was built 7/8/21. Experienced a delay of a few weeks in transportation from Fremont, due to an issue with the paint on the back hatch, which was corrected. As you know, red...

    Picked it up this afternoon. Small chip in wood around cup holder. Tesla noted and mobile tech will replace entire piece after I set appointment. Otherwise, aesthetically it looks great. When adjusting settings on main screen, the screen has gone dark 5x, necessitating reboots. Definitely a...

    2021+ Model S LR Delivery Tracking

    This does not explain the issue with folks that have a VIN. Most of those people even know the born date of their S, however, still no solid EDD from Tesla???

    2021+ Model S LR Delivery Tracking

    When Fremont places a hold on delivery of vehicles because of an issue they are working to correct. You EDD is likely to continue to change, so I wouldn't get too concerned about it at this point.

    2021+ Model S LR Delivery Tracking

    There is some kind of containment hold. Many have had a VIN for weeks, but no delivery. Perhaps related to the shafts issue? Who knows.

    2021+ Model S LR Delivery Tracking

    Tesla's lack of communication is abhorrent. Some side effects are speculation and conspiracy theories. The truth is probably much simpler: configuration, not price is the reason behind delayed deliveries. Plaids are priority. There is no real evidence Tesla is prioritizing Long Range models...

    Plaid definitely gets priority. 19’s are just scarce. The third quarter ends in September No evidence whatsoever to support this contention. No, poster is not referring to refresh bump in price. Referring to more recent price bumps. Again, Tesla has not charged any preexisting reservation...

    Actually, there is a subtle change on the account page (at least for me) since I received my VIN. It now reads 2021 Model S in the car box.

    I have never used one in 3 previous Teslas. Unlike a cell phone, the screen in your car is stationary and not constantly being placed in and out of pockets, purses or backpacks. There's no concern you may accidentally drop the screen in your car 😂 How many of you put a screen protector on your...

    Trade-In Valuation in Progress

    Not a bait and switch. The offer from Tesla has actually INCREASED by $7,000 on my 2018 Model 3! Much higher than CarMax, Carvana or Vroom. Here’s a tip: Once you get a VIN and are close to delivery, go to Tesla.com/tradein and check the value again. If it is higher then ask your SA to contact...

    Uh, yeah. This will definitely help you get your car faster. Perhaps Tesla previously allocated more chips to Plaids. Happens all of there time.
