    Front passenger door swings open violently

    Since sometime around the v10 upgrade my passenger front door (not falcon wing) has been acting funny. Sometimes, but not always, it swings open violently. It opens so hard that it seems like it’s going to break the hinges. Luckily it hasn’t hit anything parked next to me yet. i have any early...

    Event data recorder cable in western washington

    Hi, Does anyone happen to have this cable for downloading event data recorder data from the vehicle? https://www.crashdatagroup.com/tesla-edr-kit/ I parked my model x in a offsite airport parking lot and when I picked up the car there was damage to the bumper. They of course are claiming...

    Acceleration Shudder

    Chill mode significantly reduced the shutter for me. It’s still there, but a lot less noticeable. Unfortunate that’s the “fix” though.

    Possessed Drivers Seat

    I have a model x and mine does exactly the same thing. I had the seat switches replaced but it didn’t fix the issue. Let me know what you find out when you bring it into your SC.

    How do referral awards take?

    So nobody's ever actually gotten any of the referral awards before? That's a pretty lame referral program.

    How do referral awards take?

    for the referral program period from 10/16/2016 to 1/15/2017 I referred 3 people and they all took delivery of their vehicles by 12/2016. I was supposed to get a Tesla jacket or something as the referral award but haven't received anything yet. Does anyone know how long it usually takes or who...

    My Tesla Model X delivery nightmare continues

    Take the rebuild. That's a sweet deal they're offering you. The free supercharging is overrated, especially in Seattle where there isn't a supercharger in the city anyway.

    My frunk won't open, actuator broken

    My 90d's (delivery in May) frunk won't open and the SC says the actuator needs to be replaced. Anyone else have this issue? I've had all the issues that people have reported here (front door latch broken, ghosting, acceleration shudder, etc) but the frunk issue i haven't seen anyone report yet...

    Acceleration Shudder

    I have this as well, and it started on my 90d, april delivery, at around 6k miles. lowering suspension helps, but not always. I brought it into my SC about 1.5 months ago when it first started and they said the sound was normal and would go away with more use. I just tried bringing it into my SC...

    any updates on ghosting issues?

    My model X is 6 months old now. the overcast skies and the fact that it gets darker earlier now is making the ghosting issue more of a problem than in the summer for me. anybody get any updates on the ghosting issue? the SC says that it's a known issue and fremont is working on it, but I haven't...

    Windshield Wiper Visibility Issues

    Same issue here. In the pacific northwest and the smear on the way down is really bad. Has anybody had the SC try to adjust the tension on the wiper arms? I wonder if that would help. Sucks that we can't replace the wiper blades.

    Does the model X make your passengers car sick?

    Hmm the regen braking is a good one! I've noticed the regen braking for the X is much much more aggressive than the model S so maybe that's the difference. I'm hoping that's it because the roofline and curvy roads are much harder to fix :-).

    Very loud fan noise from frunk area with AC on...

    Keep us updated if they have a fix for you. Lots of people had their issues due to the swapped condenser lines. I don't know why tesla wouldn't proactively reach out to customers to get them to go into the service center to get that issue fixed. Sounds like it impacted a lot of the early vins.

    Does the model X make your passengers car sick?

    This seems to be a real problem since I've had about half of my passengers complain about it independent of each other. Passengers that sick in the 2nd or 3rd row for longer road trips complain that they get car sick and feel nauseous even though they don't typically get car sick in other cars...

    Very loud fan noise from frunk area with AC on...

    First time I went to the SC they said the loud AC was normal. I brought it back again to have them check for the swapped hoses and sure enough mine were swapped. They fixed up the car and the AC is definitely quieter than before, but I wouldn't say it's quiet, it's more on the loud end of normal...

    please help: Front door latch just failed have to drive 400 miles in AM with latch warning beeping!

    Yes it seems like these door latches always break in the most embarrassing moments. In my case it took one day to get the latch fixed. I think this was because they already had the part in stock at my SC though. I also live very close to the SC here so I just brought the car in and they gave...

    Very loud fan noise from frunk area with AC on...

    My SC says they haven't heard of this lines crossed issue and says the ac is louder than the model S because the fan is bigger or something. Anybody have a bulletin number about this issue? Or willing to take a picture of their paperwork from the SC detailing the problem and the fix so I can...

    Super loud fan while super charging

    I wonder why the AC is even on when I'm supercharging though if I'm not in the car. Or maybe it's just a fan cooling the battery while it's charging? Man I wish the SC could do something about it - like putting some sound deadening foam in the bumper.

    Super loud fan while super charging

    When I'm supercharging my model X it's super loud for like the first 30 minutes or so. It sounds like a fan is working really hard. A decibel meter on my phone says it's at 84 decibels. I can literally hear my car inside the store near the supercharger. My model s was never this loud. Anybody...

    To Wrap or not wrap your Model X

    I debated about getting the full wrap or only the front. I'm glad I did the full wrap. After the last software update my FWDs opened directly into the metal track of my garage door. Actually scratched off the xpel but the paint underneath was completely protected. My driver door is banging...

    Help! Front driver's side door no longer latching.

    when this happened to me what I would do is open the door with the manual pull handle. then i would close the door using the touchscreen. most of the time the door would slam shut and not latch and then i would press the touchscreen 2 or 3 more times and sometimes it would suck in from there. if...

    if anybody in the seattle area has a model x with no ghosting issues i'd love to meet up to take a look, and i'd love to get your opinion if you see ghosting in my car which I think is pretty bad. i'd be more than happy to buy you lunch or coffee or whatever. also if you have a quiet AC i'd love...

    please help: Front door latch just failed have to drive 400 miles in AM with latch warning beeping!

    Update on my issue. The service center said my latch hardware was failing and needed to be replaced. So for people who are experiencing the same issue as me I'm not sure I buy the fact that this is a software only issue and can be fixed with a door reset. Especially given the fact that a few...

    Fixed Spoiler Photos

    my vin 30xx has a fixed spoiler. i agree, i think it's super ugly. i'm still hoping that they manufactured the cars with all of the wiring in place for an active spoiler so we can get it installed aftermarket easily.

    Charge Port not Opening on Cable Button Press

    On my non-sig X, my button press only works if I unlock the doors using the key fob first and the charging cable is very close to the charge port. On my model s the key fob only had to be in my pocket and I could press the button from like 6 feet away and it would still open the charge port.

    For the unlucky ones with a fixed spoiler

    I'm hearing a rattling sound coming from my 3rd row seats. I can't pinpoint it but it sounds like it's coming from my fixed spoiler? Anybody had rattling coming from the trunk area before? Did you have the fixed spoiler and was that where I was coming from.

    please help: Front door latch just failed have to drive 400 miles in AM with latch warning beeping!

    Update on my issue - the door magically fixed itself today. I didn't call tesla, and didn't do any more reset tricks other than what I did yesterday when it first broke. I just charged the car overnight this mornnig it seems the door worked again. Not sure if I'm happy or sad about this...

    I have a rear-facing child and my wife sits in the back seat with him. So the passenger seat is always empty.

    Yeah I'm hoping that on Monday I can at least go in for the quick technicians reset that they tried with you at first. My latch might not be in as bad shape as yours. When I open the door I can hear the motor on the door constantly working as if it keeps trying to latch it closed but it can...

    I have bad ghosting in my windshield too. My build date is May and my vin is 300x. No idea if any of these numbers uniquely identify the windshield manufacturer and/or date but this is what I see in the corner of my windshield. Anyone know if there's anything to interpret from these numbers...

    My passenger latch just failed too. My build date is May but not sure exactly what date.

Yes I've...

    Where exactly is the microphone?

    I have the same issue. iPhone speakerphone seems to be better quality than the Bluetooth in the car. The Bluetooth in my model s was also bad, but I think the road noise in my X is worse which makes the Bluetooth phone calls pretty much unusable. Let me know if your SC ever figures out a fix...
