The door opens fine once I manually unlock it, so I don’t think misalignment is the problem. Plus I don’t hear the lock unlocking when I pull either handle.

Did you find a fix for this? I am having a similar but not identical problem with the rear driver's side door on my 2014 S. So far, I haven't replaced any parts. https://teslamotorsclub.com/tmc/threads/handle-works-but-door-wont-unlock-both-interior-and-exterior.233575/

Yes, but is it just one switch that takes input from both the interior and exterior handles? And does the same switch control the glass lowering and the door unlocking? If it's all one switch, that suggests that the wire from the switch to the glass-lowering motor is OK, but the wire from the...

I have a late 2014 Model S. The rear driver’s side door handle is (I think) a Gen 2. Recently, the handle itself seems to work fine – it presents, retracts, has the handle light go on, etc. When you pull the handle, the glass properly drops down a little bit. But the door won’t open. Same thing...

Live sporting events that are blacked out over streaming, for one.

Mine has started doing this. It still works very occasionally to open the charge door but usually doesn’t. A supercharger cable works every time. Unlatching still works fine.

This was mine. Just a cosmetic issue, but I got it fixed just before warrantee ran out on my Late 2014 Model S, when I was getting other warrantee work done. I'm not sure wat time of year it happened; possibly May or June. (I have a whole house surge suppressor.)

I did my own black-out with Plasti Dip (most of the chrome, including rear TESLA strip, window surrounds and side mirrors) and it worked out well. Maybe not as nice as professional film install, but can't beat the price. After 2 years, I just need to do a little touch up in some spots.

I've had the same problem with the radio for (at least) months. Occasionally, after getting in the car, I get 20-30 seconds of static (often in 1-second pulses) before the station starts coming in correctly. Also sometimes, it will change from the station it was on before to the lowest preset...

So are the Russians involved in this? <grin>

Really bad article. It says, "The issue has no relation to the vehicles' regular brakes, and Tesla has received no reports of the parking brake system failing to hold a car in place....Is it as bad a the exploding pinto, no, but where does the incident rank among the worst automotive industry...

I have started having about a 1 in 3 chance of getting the "touchscreen unresponsive... Please hold down both scroll wheels" message every time I get into the car in the morning or on leaving work. It may only be when it's been sitting a long time. Rebooting the touchscreen unfreezes it until...

Blue with orange trim?? My eyes are bleeding!

I like the look (prefer the nosecone version, at least for now!) although I agree that it does have too many similarities with Aston Martin and Ford Fusion.

I tried this out and it just shows a blank white page with supercharger "pins" stuck in it. No map outline or anything else. Is this expected behavior?

After discussing with the family, I'm trying out "Tony" for now, both because "Tony the Tesla" is alliterative and because Elon is kind of a real-life Tony Stark.

I agree with the other posters on non-framed windows in general. I had them on an E36 M3 for 16 years and never had a problem.

I'm just curious as to whether they gave you any indication about how much work swapping the seats was going to be. Was it a half-hour to unbolt the old seats and put in the new ones, or is it going to be several days and involve taking most of the interior apart? That might indicate how much...

I've seen various threads here discussing how the built-in connectivity might be considered "equivalent" to LoJack for getting the U.S. insurance company's +15% Vehicle Recovery System discount, with some comments suggesting "try it with your insurance company and see; it might work". However...
