    Model Y Rear Ended - Charging

    Yes the party that rear ended was at fault in the police report and State Farm has assumed responsibility for the accident, but they give themselves wiggle room by using wording like 'reasonable cost of repairs'. State Farm is lowballing on the labor costs and the body shop was not surprised...

    Model Y Rear Ended - Charging

    The person who rear ended my car is insured by State Farm. State Farm did an initial photo estimate and it was ~$7.5k. I finally got an appointment and I took the MY to the body shop and got an estimate, that was $23k. So State Farm now re-appraised the damage to be ~18K, now they won't pay more...

    Tesla Collision Owen Mills, MD vs Tesla Certified Body Shop

    Thanks a lot. They were pretty responsive to me as well. I will give them a try and see how it goes. I need to get an estimate from State Farm before I can get on their schedule.

    Tesla Collision Owen Mills, MD vs Tesla Certified Body Shop

    Thanks so much for the reply. I have scheduled an appointment with Safford in Owings Mills on October 16th, I have yet to call Jeff Shaw. Would you recommend Jeff Shaw? I found another shop down in Rockville - Total Recon, I don't have their time estimate yet. They will let me know what their...

    Model Y Rear Ended - Charging

    My MY got rear ended on a highway. Car is drivable and drove it back home to the garage. I am out of town and I need to know if there is a risk for the wife charging the car at home until I get back, which is in a week. I don’t know if there is a damage to battery that could present a risk to...

    Weird noise from Model Y

    I have the same noise issue with my MYP that was delivered in Feb 2023 as the videos that are posted in this thread. Can you post pictures of the barcode sticker on the tires is making this noise? I would rather take the barcode off myself instead of taking it to the SC.

    Phone key in car - lock with key card

    Why not just turn the phone off when you store it in the car for the run and then turn it back on when you return and open the car?

    Supercharger - Jessup, MD

    Nice, this probably is right next to Costco and TJs. But more needed in HC or even western HC. Havepower is the contractor that installed charging plugs in my garage in EC back in 2019, I highly recommend them.

    Alignment shops in MD

    I am a stickler for alignment and the Tesla SC alignment is ok but could be better. I have a new MYP, does anyone have recommendation for alignment/suspension/tuning shops that do good alignment in central MD?

    Maryland BGE Home charging program

    They are expecting a bit much where someone would allow access to their Tesla account.

    Is it normal for an 80% charge to show 228 miles with MYP?

    This is interesting, I think measuring miles is not a direct way to establish the battery capacity in Ah. Is Ah a parameter that is available to the customers, as to how much is total battery charge capacity? For example for my laptop, I can look up this information below. Is there such...

    Maryland BGE Home charging program

    Question, how does BGE know that I am charging an EV and not running an electric dryer or AC unitS? Dryer and AC are used during peak hours, so how does BGE differentiate between EV and appliances?

    New Y, frunk too tight to close, needs lot of force

    I have a new MY where the frunk is too tight to close. The couple of times that I have opened it, it's very hard to close. I think there might be a little indentation where you press the frunk down. I am going to take it to the SC tomorrow, but I wanted to see if any MY owners have had the same...

    EDD For Tesla MYP Jan. 2023 Orders

    Picked up MYP yesterday (build date 2/7, OD change date to MYP 2/3), no exteriors issues to speak of, most of minor things that are easy to ignore, panels gaps, glass gaps, paint shade, all looks good.

    Feature Request - Widgets on bottom dock - screen UI

    I have a similar timeline for OD and change to MYP and same color combinations, in addition I also have tow. I am picking up on 2/22. I am really surprised your EDD and VIN have not firmed up yet. Short range like you said meant the same for me, impending VIN, could be any day now.

    Credit Unions with good rates that accept applicants anywhere within the US?

    Thanks for that, all I see under the Manage page for the vehicle under documents section is the order agreement and lemon law, there is no MVPA. Do I need to contact Tesla for that?

    The Floor Mat Decision - If It Helps Others

    Credit Unions with good rates that accept applicants anywhere within the US?

    I received the VIN on 2/7 and now the DD is 2/22. I just looked at the vehicle agreement and it doesn’t have the VIN on it, but instead has the order number on it. Don’t I need the order agreement with VIN on it, to submit to Tower?

    Credit Unions with good rates that accept applicants anywhere within the US?

    I am local to Tower in MD. I got pre-approved on 1/28 and account application still showed pending today. So I gave up on online approval and drove to their office and opened the account today. Step 1 done, step 2 is to keep bugging the loan processor for final approval. My DD is 2/22. Hope to...

    Credit Unions with good rates that accept applicants anywhere within the US?

    I applied with Tower on 1/23 and got approved on 1/28. They did great with turnaround time for being so busy. I don’t know if being a local MD resident makes a difference. Now waiting for the car EDD begins.

    M3 is a BMW, people

    This is classic 'BMW prestige reared it's emotionally superior head', aren't we grown ups who can handle the emotional conflicts better? Er, rationally. I don't think M3 used in Tesla reference diminishes anything that M3 was.

    Center of gravity/mass comparison with other cars

    Taycan Takedown

    Porsche for the most part is in economics terms a 'Veblen Good'. The perceived value increases as the price increases without any tangible value addition. The only reason to hold back a mid-engined platform like the Cayman in favor of the 911 is exactly this reason.
