I went 6 weeks without a loaner and just got one last week (an older stock S). Tesla has not yet confirmed that they will pick up the $18k cost for the repair but the local service manager is sympathetic and trying to get approval. But its been 7 weeks and no confirmation so I am beginning to...

I went 6 weeks without a loaner and finally got one last week (an older stock S). Tesla has not yet confirmed that they will pick up the $18k cost for the repair but the local service manager is sympathetic and trying to get approval from corporate. But after 7 weeks and no confirmation I am...

My Tesla X Falcon Wong Door was destroyed within 24 hrs of owning it (see details below). Today marks 7 weeks since it was taken to Amato's, the only authorized repair shop in San Diego. I called Amato's and Tesla today and they still haven't gotten delivery dates for some of the parts required...

Today marks 7 weeks since it was taken to Amato's, the only authorized repair shop in San Diego. I called Amato's and Tesla today and they still haven't gotten delivery dates for some of the parts required to fix the door. No dates, not ETA, nothing. Amato's finally towed my $150k Tesla X away...

Thank you, cclaygo, for testing! I figured that it was designed that way. As I mentioned in my original post, I wasn't sure if I pulled it into drive before the door was signaled to open, or after. From your post, it would appear that the order of events must have been that the door was signaled...

Interesting. That X is the other one that is in for repair at Amato's along with mine in San Diego. This is going to happen to a lot more X owners if the algorithms that govern the falcon wing doors are not modified.

Thanks. Maybe recessed buttons on the fob would help, especially for the Falcon wing doors because they are so vulnerable. Or perhaps don't allow the car to roll forward, period, unless the falcon wing doors are latched. What's the real world need for moving forward while the falcon wing doors...

Thanks. No loaner yet. No date yet. No word yet if Tesla will pay the repair or if it's my cost to fix. They did tell me last week that they were trying to get a full door replacement right off of the assembly line. 3 weeks today since they had to haul it out of my driveway on a truck. I'd...

Leather pouch?

Yes, I was backed into the garage and was rolling out slowly looking forward. I had just walked past the falcon wing door that was closed so could not imagine that a few seconds later it would be opening as I exited. BTW, Tesla confirmed that the signal to open the damaged door came from the key...

First, I want to say that the local Tesla Service guy, Lee Woolley, has been great. But I bought a fully loaded X and took delivery 3 weeks ago and destroyed the drivers side falcon wing door because of an errant signal from the key fob in my pocket while I was exiting my garage for the very...
