I have Tesla insurance and am wondering when I will receive a renewal dec page? My current 6-month policy expires in the first week of September according to the Tesla app, so I'm wondering when I'll get either (1) a renewal notice, or (2) an updated dec page showing I'm covered for another...

Curious to see if there are any known issues with a Model 3 key fob. Mine seems to intermittently not work due to (seemingly) a bad connection with the battery. But as far as I can tell, all the metal contacts with the battery are intact and there should be no reason the key fob shouldn't work...

Since there can never be too much positive news, I thought I'd write about my experience of buying a new M3P, selling my old MS to Carvana, and the logistics and timeline of the Tesla/Wells Fargo car loan. If anything, perhaps this will simply serve as an updated data point on what folks...

Maybe a silly question, but do I need to provide proof of insurance in order to select a delivery date? I just want to make sure I'm not inadvertently delaying my vehicle. I'm a current Model S 70D owner and I've decided to switch it out for a brand new Model 3 Performance. I have an EDD and a...

I did a search and didn't see any recent threads on AP1 side collision avoidance, so here goes... For AP1 cars, is side collision avoidance gone for good or just temporarily? (I did find a thread referencing Tesla temporarily removing it for data collection purposes in preparation for its AP2...

This will be my first time charging at a non-Tesla charger and wanted to see what (if anything) I'd need to bring to charge here. I called and spoke with someone who confirmed they do have EV charging, but they weren't sure what plugs they used. They said they have Tesla chargers, but I don't...

Came out to my car this evening to a pretty wide crack on my front windshield. Called my insurance (Allied/Nationwide) and they said they will let me take it wherever I want, but will only cover ~$800. I've read that these Model S windshields can run as high as $1400 or so to replace. I have...

I'm continuously blown away by the level of service I've received from Tesla, so I'll post this as another two thumbs up experience. Brought my 2015 Model S 70D in for the 2nd annual/25k mile service to Tesla Torrance this time since they're down where I work, and I figured I'd drop it off on...

Those insured with Geico: did the online system recognize your 16-digit VIN? I recently switched after finding out my current insurance company (Allied) does NOT offer glass coverage standard and it would have been an additional $200/yr to add it. Geico came out to $300 cheaper per year with...

Question for Wawanesa policy holders (or those who insure with a company that does not offer umbrella insurance): Since Wawanesa does not offer umbrella insurance, what do you do for umbrella insurance? I would imagine that this group of people, owning a Tesla, would have other significant...

I wanted to share my positive experience with the Costa Mesa, CA service center. I took my car in for its first annual/12,500 mile recommended service, and since it has been some time since I've had such a smooth experience when getting a check-up on my car, I felt obligated to share. I...

I'm due to visit the service center soon anyway for the anti-rust coating for the orange stuff that comes out the front of my car whenever I wash it, but wanted to get a poll on what people think before I go in for my own peace of mind on this separate issue - see attached picture showing tire...

I was driving home the other day and took a phone call from a friend to vent about work-related issues. I floored it once the light turned green, and he asked me if I was having fun flooring it in my car! Apparently, he was able to hear the futuristic "whirr" of the motor over the hands-free...

I've read through some of the threads regarding charging cables being stuck, happened to me today at the San Diego Supercharger. Unlocked the car, and proceeded to try and pull the cable out but it wouldn't budge. Went to the center console to hit the unlock charge port, and tried unplugging the...

About 13k miles on my car and will be replacing just a single tire due to flat. Should I have any concerns over uneven wear patterns (or anything else for that matter) with replacing just one tire? It is a 70D purchased brand new in October last year, so about 9 months and 13k miles. I went in...

I thought I would share that it might be a good idea to at least inform passengers of the capabilities of autopilot before actually using it. This is motivated by something that happened yesterday, for the safety of all involved: I carpooled with a coworker yesterday and on our way home, I got...

Model S 70D, VIN 109xxx with a production date of October 2015: auto dimming mirrors sometimes do not work. I would estimate about 20% of the time. Unfortunately, I usually don't notice this until after I've pulled out of the parking lot to go home at the end of the work day. This hasn't been a...

Just another victim here of having his new Lexus ruined by a Tesla test drive :smile: I pulled the trigger on a new 70D, order confirmed 9/26, and has been showing as "in production queue..." since then, VIN #1097xx. Nothing too fancy as I was trying to keep the costs down, only add-ons I...
