This problem comes and goes. I have confirmed only one definite trigger: make sure you have not overridden the headlights option from "auto." With headlights set to "off," FSD will engage and function. However, it will trigger the error you have described during the trip (I guess when it decides...

Right, that is why I think this one is different. Bluetooth (both streaming and phone calls) also seems affected for these two cars.

No, I think this is a new and separate issue. It seems to have started with a recent software update on non-FSD cars. My car is fine (2017 Model S with FSD), but my wife and her friend (2018 ModeL Ss, without FSD) started having this issue. Wife's friend took the car to a Tesla Service Center...

I do not have experience with it, but I just looked at offered terms. I do not know if they quote different prices for different locations or not, but these prices do not seem compelling. While they do mimic the periodicity of real-time hourly pricing, the peak price seems remarkably high and...

Hey Carlos, I was on the hourly pricing plan for years. Up until 2022, I would say that the program made sense. With elevated and wildly fluctuating prices during the first half of 2022, fixed rate plans became cheaper and much easier to manage. I have dropped the hourly pricing program at the...

Ah, perhaps I misunderstood the message in the app (I can no longer confirm as I have FSB now and my Safety Score went bye-bye). Seems that the driving details get tied to each profile, but the overall score gets aggregated across all profiles. So, MP3Mike is correct and I am wrong.

Simply make sure that she has her own profile. Any driving she (or anyone else) does will thus not affect your score. Otherwise, as others have said: 1. 96 is still good enough to get the beta 2. it will clear in 30 days

Why can you not drive the car? A failing 12V battery will still work for some time. Also, I am puzzled by your experience. In any case, I just had mine replaced two weeks ago. I received the alert Sunday morning. I opened the app, requested service, confirmed my appointment, and had mobile...

Yes, I've had this happen a few times (invariably, during a long trip on a hot summer day right after finishing a supercharging session). Does this happen to you all the time or rarely?

I hear you, but I bet they will replace the headlight regardless since they have admitted a known defect. In fact, I am very curious to learn what they tell you, if you are willing to try...

Would this be on different cars or are the replacements failing as well?

Schedule a service appointment -- Tesla will replace the headlights for you. They are aware of the problem and seem to be replacing affected headlight with no questions asked. You may have to wait a few weeks for parts to arrive.

Hi -- deactivate "Automatic Navigation" under "Navigation."

I had the same issue. The car thinks you want to go home, sets that as destination, and realizes you are there :) Go to Navigation and deactivate "Automatic Navigation." It's a nice feature, in theory. The software should simply first check if you are at the destination it is about to set...

Schedule an appointment. They will let you know if the have the lamp or when they will get it at your local service center. Had my cars fixed half a year ago, but had to wait a few weeks for them to get the device. The fix appears to be complete and flawless.

Alas, they just bounced my appointment a couple of days ago. They will replace the screen, but on my dime. They think they will have an in-warranty solution in a month or so (this is what my SC dude told me on the phone, the post below indicates "after September"). Someone from Norway posted...

Check out this active conversation on Reddit about replacement screens becoming available. I just scheduled an appointment for mine. Model S screen replacement : teslamotors

@BridgeMojo, Thanks -- other than the specific appointment mention, that is what I got on the phone from them...

@BridgeMojo, Did they flat out refuse or did they ask you to wait? Did they give any further explanation? Thanks!

I haven't experienced it myself, but a friend constantly complains about her brand new glass roof Model S. The SC told her it was a known issue and that they cannot fix it. Apparently, Model S cars with the sunroofs don't have as much of a problem.

As soon as you hit "sync," individual controls appear.

I just tried it out. Everything worked flawlessly. I am eagerly awaiting more features. Thanks a bunch!

I agree -- I see clear advantages in using the Tesla screen as the controller rather than fiddling with my phone. I would love to give this a try and to provide feedback... Cheers!

Carl, If you have access to a computer with a scheduler and a python interpreter, I can write a script for you to do just that... Cheers!

Thanks for sharing. I especially like the front passenger mat -- that front lip looks nice and high. The Tesla mat does not come up nearly high enough to protect from dirty shoes.

Does anyone know if Tesla refreshes models at any regular interval or on a specific schedule? I am especially interested in potential new exterior color options. TIA!

Thanks for your responses, Everyone. IFought4U, I have not spoken to my local sales representative yet. I chatted with the on-line representative who proved less than helpful and only provided canned marketing blurbs. I am surprised about the windshield wipers. My wife's much older Model S has...

Hey Folks, I ran some searches, but came up empty. I chatted with Tesla on-line and got the same canned marketing blurbs they already have on their web site. Is there a FAQ somewhere for this which I missed? Anyway, what do I actually get today, in terms of real and active features, by paying...

Yeah, the same thing happens to ours when the car overheats under the sun. Once it cools off, the roof runs fine. HTH

Hi Richard, Would you mind sharing your service rep's number and name? My service rep still has not figured it out nor has called me back. Thanks! Igor

Ah, bingo! I have the same thing. Thanks for sharing!

I have the same problem and it started shortly after the 8.0 update. In addition, the car no longer auto-locks, even though the setting remains turned on. I will try the reboot option to see if it helps. Do any of you other folks with this problem have auto-lock turned on? Did it also stop...

Mine is a bit simpler, although I fully admire the "from above" design... It's an $8 garden utensil hook from Home Depot and the $25 cable organizer from Tesla.

For most garage door openers, you can just buy a new remote. Reprogram your opener with the new remote and do the same with Homelink. Checking a few search results, you can likely pick up a compatible remote for $30 or less. Good luck!

You'll be fine with RWD as long as you have winter tires. You'll be fine with a D and all-season tires. Our winters do get nasty and you run a non-zero chance of getting stuck in a heavy snowfall right after work. I had to abandon my RWD car in the parking lot at work a few times over the...

Thank you everyone!

Howdy, Tesla offered me pretty much identical terms via Wells Fargo or US Bank. I have not previously done business with either. Which would you recommend? I appreciate simple website access, easy and automatic electronic payment options, and responsive customer service (if ever necessary)...
