    Tesla Altered my Model X agreement, Adding Already Paid-for Item

    I am saying the autopilot listed as included because I paid for full self-driving, and at the time it means just that. Otherwise it won't list it there. By the way, I found Tesla used version 2021-11-24 agreement template to modify my original agreement and backdated to 2021-7-26, one day after...

    Tesla Altered my Model X agreement, Adding Already Paid-for Item

    Auto pilot is not included at the time of my order. It came back a while later. No one else ordered a X or S around the time of my order?. Please I need help to confirm my recollection is correct.

    flat tire experience

    My puncture was of the worst kind that Costco won’t consider it road hazard and won’t give me a free replacement tire per warranty. After this incident, I have a full size spare for long distance travel.

    Grandfather Free Supercharging Please

    According to Tesla free supercharging ends for the cars ordered after 1-1-17. This poses a serious problem for me. See I have unlimited phone data plan with Verizon. I value this data plan more than phone itself; therefore I choose to pay full price without taking advantage of any subsidy when...

    How Tesla Charges Idle Fees?

    Each time when my car charged up to 80%, this text will sent to my phone: Supercharging is nearly complete at TIME. Idle fees will accrue once charging has ended. My question is, How does Tesla charges idle fees to me? In future when people insert cards to purchase supercharging, that would...

    Supercharger congestion problem ideas.

    Everyone of current and future owners call their legislators to pass a bill to fund the superchargers at our local parks; public or government parking facilities; government-owned vacant lots near highway intersections, in national parks.

    Totally my fault - Curb rash in autopilot

    Sorry, I respectively disagree. I use AP 95% of my driving time everywhere, non-divided highways and surface roads included. How often and where one use AP has something to do with one's comfort level using AP, no with AP itself.

    Would you buy MX instead for $5,000 more?

    Got my S85D 5 months now. Have logged 12,000+ miles on it and love every mile of it. Used autopilot 99% of the time--even just for one block of stree I'd use it; seeing it can do what it (autopilot) supposed to do really thrills me. Naturally I am thinking also about my next car and it must be...

    My friend's model X crashed using AP yesterday

    Any updates on this thread? Did Mr. Pang respond to Tesla's letter? Mr. Pang can we hear from you about the comments on this thread? Have you met Tesla? Have you fixed your X or bought another one?

    Do you like current models X & S front end on your model 3?

    I really think the new front end on S looks better, more elegant. The 3 proto type is bland without the the "T' emblem strip.

    A Public Letter to Mr. Musk and Tesla For The Sake Of All Tesla Driver's Safety

    What Mr. Pang wants to achieve with his open letter? He clearly says he wants open discussion with Tesla or Elon Musk himself any time any where. Why not make it happen: can someone from Tesla invite Mr. Pang to TMC Connect 2016 to have a public forum there? Let's have a face to face open...

    Autopilot on Freeway slowed down to a crawl twice today!

    It would happen on I-90 from Mariina Del Ray onramp to almost the I-405 transition, because I think the autopilot still follow the 40 miles speed limit (for the local side street in parallel). It also would happen in downtown on I-110 where there are several overpasses above with the lower local...

    Not all Superchargers are created equal...

    This morning I charged up at Westfield. The first charger I used only gave me around 100 mi/hr. After 15 min seeing the rate not going up, suspecting bad connection I unplug and replug 3 times without any increase. So I switch to different charger. Thank god I did that as it give me over 300...

    Key Fob Not Working

    This afternoon I took my car to Mt. Wilson for a pleasure ride. Leaving home with 80% charge (daily full charge), arriving at 50% charge. Both car and phone lost internet connection there. Heavy fog turned into light rain. Spent two hours in observatory. When I was ready to leave, the doors...

    Why can't I build a 3?

    Because Elon figured majority of buyers will pay for auto pilot and free supercharging; these two options together would cost you $4,500. Add doc fees and pay for your favorite color, you have your $42,500 M3.

    Model 3 Supercharging Capability?

    M3 comes with supercharging standard. But to use superchargers free for the life of your M3, you have to pay, mostly likely $2K, for such an option. Elon only said M3 comes with supercharging standard, he was very careful not to say M3 comes with free supercharging for the life of the car. Quite...

    Your M3 will pay for itself, if you

    @diamond.g, if either your home or office is close to a supercharger or there is one in between your daily commute route (if not now, hopefully in near future), you are in luck to be able to use free supercharging daily. Your ~120 daily commute miles actually would be close to ~150 rated miles...

    Your M3 will pay for itself, if you

    drive it 30,000 miles per year 100% on free supercharging for 8 years. Assuming $3 per gallon on premium gasoline and 20 miles per gallon mileage, the fuel cost saved in 8 years would be $36,000. And oh, how much you paid for your M3? $25,000 after rebate. So the chance you actually making...

    Superchargers for Model 3

    I have a funny theory, people. Tesla shall expand supercharging facilities in response to traffics; e.g. adding 2 superchargers not far away from the Hawthorne Supercharger and some have 6 stalls some has 12. Therefore, if you want more superchargers in your area, overwhelm the local...

    Supercharging - Elon's statement that Daily Supercharging Users are Receiving Notes

    Model S/X Owners Have Priority Model 3 Orders Over Non-Owners

    If A putting in order before B, A get what he ordered before B. It should be this simple. This is the rule or common sense. Everything else is speculation and may subject to class action law suit if some smart lawyer want to make a few bucks.

    Superchargers for Model 3

    The base model 3 very likely won't come with free supercharging; but will be offered as an option for $2,000 when ordering or $2,500 after delivery. This kind of configuration makes a lot of sense. Since a lot of people don't want to pay for this option on model 3; e.g. if you have multiple...

    Auto lange change only works 30% of the time

    The predominantly reason for AP lane change to fail, like I discussed, is lack of clearance. Like Prefect said it's stupid the signal keeps blinking and nothing happens. It's even embarrassing that the car next to me actually slows down for me to move over but the AP just does not engage (and...

    Auto lange change only works 30% of the time

    It only works when there is enough space available per Autopilot program to effectivate lane change command, which is by my estimate at least 10-car length before and after my car; i.e. If there is no clearance of 20 car length next to me in the lane I want to switch into I have to do it...

    Using Superchargers for Local Charging

    Using local supercharger for free is one of the benefits owning a Tesla. If you can afford a Tesla you can afford the cost installing a NEMA 14-50 receptor or two in your garage for convenience. If that is not possible due to other limitations than cost, or before that is done; then using...

    How Many of the Model 3's Options Will be Hardware vs. Firmware Activated?

    I think you underestimate the utility of autopilot feature. For Tesler owners who are proficient in driving with autopilot assist, me included, we don't drive the car any more. We let our Tesla drive itself in almost all our driving time and only intervene when necessary, such as being first car...
