    Yoke peeling

    I also have ceramic tint, but *not* on the windshield. Maybe you are on to something. Why only the left bump peeling for me though?

    Yoke peeling

    I'm in Orange County and my Plaid is garaged when I'm not driving it. You are in LA and we have essentially the same weather, so I don't know why you aren't having the problem. It always starts to peel on the top left bump on the yoke. I never put my hands there to drive or turn, so it isn't...

    Yoke peeling

    On my 3rd yoke since September of 2021. For me, the yoke seems to last about 8 months before it starts peeling in the same location. My 3rd yoke is now peeling and service will not replace it citing the new yoke "with improved materials" available mid-February. Covered the peeling area with...

    Plaid 21” rear tire woes - factory defect?

    Wish that I saw this thread earlier. I have the same issue on my 2021 Plaid. I was gradually loosing a little pressure on that tire over a few days, which became adding air every day when I was on a road trip about 300 miles from home. On the trip back, I had to add air midway and panicked...

    2021 Refreshed Model S - steering wheel yolk material peeling off?

    Had mine replaced in May, and it was the "E" revision. The material doesn't feel any different than the original. So far, no wear points in 3 months.

    2021 Refreshed Model S - steering wheel yolk material peeling off?

    Same issue. This is after about 6 months with my new Plaid.

    Horrible Customer Service & Onlineorders

    Telsa Store Customer Service is at best awful, but seems more likely non-existant. I ordered all weather mats for my new Plaid. Online purchase (taking my money) was very easy. When the mats finally arrived, I discovered that there were two right rear mats in the box - not a left and right...

    FSD Video Record Button Use

    Really difficult to get to the video record button on the new S Refresh UI. Requires a swipe, then locate the little button then tap it. Very distracting when Tesla wants you to be ultra-aware and responsive when you are driving on FSD. I also sent an email.

    Safety Score

    I'm wondering if the Safety Score will continue to be monitored for us non-100's. I ended up a lowly 96 😂 with about 400 miles, but will be taking a few extended drives over the next week or two. Assuming my score continues to rise, will the next rollout be based on the score at the cutoff...

    Model S Technical / Mechanical Issues

    That was all that was on the invoice. Good luck tomorrow. It will be a quick fix if the service center can take in your car.

    2021 Plaid off the grid after software update

    I hope that everything works out. I'm now opposite you - Plaid software issue fixed, but can't get my PPF appointment - several weeks backlog now. Heading up to the mountains hiking, and terrified about tiny rocks on the narrow paved mountain roads up to the trailhead. BTW, this is my second...

    Model S Technical / Mechanical Issues

    I requested a mobile service appointment through the App on Saturday - it was scheduled for the following Monday. On Sunday, I got a message that I would need to bring the car into the service center, and the rep (on his own) scheduled an appointment for me for first thing Monday morning at the...

    Model S Technical / Mechanical Issues

    Good luck! It was really painless at Lake Forest service center. They knew what the issue was, and had the fix ready and waiting for me to arrive. I was going to walk to Starbucks to kill time, but they finished before I could walk there.

    Model S Technical / Mechanical Issues

    This happened to me, and several others are reporting it as well after the update to 2021.32.22. I had to take my Plaid into the service center for the fix, but it only took about 45 minutes while I waited.

    2021 Plaid off the grid after software update

    Oh, I definitely drove it 😁. I picked up the car Wednesday, drove it home and did all of my settings, infotainment preferences, key fobs, phones, homelink, etc. Then did the update, and like just like you discovered, wiped out a ton of features in the car - drove it Wednesday, Thursday and...

    2021 Plaid off the grid after software update

    I think that it was over LTE. I'm pretty sure that I hadn't added the car to my WiFi network when I allowed the update to start.

    2021 Plaid off the grid after software update

    The service agent didn’t say. This is what my invoice showed. Technician verified customer's concern. Found the car lost remote access to mothership. Technician proceeded with running the routine to setup production vehicle. Verified proper operation.

    2021 Plaid off the grid after software update

    Had the exact same thing happen to my new Plaid. Scheduled service through the App. It was logged as mobile service, but the service team reached out and said that I needed to bring it in and auto-scheduled an appointment for me. I brought the car in this morning and they were able to fix the...

    2021+ Model S and Model S Plaid Refresh Issues Thread

    Posting an update for the benefit of anyone that encountered the same issue that I did after their new car updated to 2021.32.22. After my new Plaid updated, I could no longer connect to the car from my App. Also, all settings (Homelink, Profiles, Bluetooth phone, Driving, Key programming...

    2021+ Model S and Model S Plaid Refresh Issues Thread

    Exact same problem. Originally had a mobile service, but they reached out and said that they can't fix this mobile. I have an appointment at the service center for 9 this morning, so I should know more later today.

    2021+ Model S and Model S Plaid Refresh Issues Thread

    Picked up my Plaid yesterday. I really didn't notice any manufacturing issues except the infamous yolk worm. All bits and pieces were there. I can't believe that they only include the 120V charging adapter for home. Their cost for the 14-50 adapter must be very minimal, and should Tesla...

    2021+ Model S and Model S Plaid Refresh Issues Thread

    Picked up my Plaid today. App communication, Infotainment, Navigation were working great. Car kept nagging me for a software update, so I let it 😖. Now, I have the same problem that you report. I scheduled a mobile service through the app. Hopefully they can take care of the issue without...

    Powerwall Backorders

    Yes, I did and they did responded after a couple of days. They indicated that they have no record that Tesla has applied for a reservation for me.

    Powerwall Backorders

    No reservation letter. One of the few communications I received from Tesla stated that they had started the process on my behalf. I inquired with SCE and they indicated that they have not received an application from Tesla for me. The application has to be done by Tesla - I don't see how I...

    Powerwall Backorders

    Same here. Ordered 2 Powerwall's from Tesla in August 2020. Also Tier 3 fire zone and Med Baseline, so full SGIP. I can't even get my Project Advisor to return an email or phone call. Many emails with no response. I am concerned that SCE SGIP funds will run out before Tesla can complete the...

    Who has had/having their roadster deposit refunded

    I did - reserved on the night of the reveal. I'll be too old to drive the thing by the time it gets here 🤣. The refund process went smoothly. The $5K initial deposit was refunded by check within a a few days. The $45K that was wired was also refunded by check, and that took about a month.

    See Roadster in real life

    Wanted to return here to say thanks. I would have never know about this if I didn't see your post. It was about a 2 hour drive for me, but I finally got to see this beast in person. Absoluteley gorgeous vehicle! More impressive in person than all of the pictures that I have seen. It was...

    California SGIP Equity Resiliency

    Following this thread. I just placed an order with the $100 deposit for 2 Powerwalls. I have been looking through the SGIP information, and we definitely qualify for Equity Resiliency - HFTD Zone 3 and Medical Baseline. I'm hoping Tesla has learned how to manage through this process. Tesla...

    When do you expect the first deliveries of the 2020 Roadster?

    Watched the Autonomy Day Event stream today. Elon put up a slide when talking about the Tesla Master Plan. From what I recall, 2020 goals were Model Y, Semi and Robotaxi - no mention of the new Roadster. Not feeling very good about the likelihood a 2020 delivery.

    Is it mandatory for you to put that ugly sticker to your tesla to use the carpool lane?

    I guess if you are spending $200K for a Roadster, another $800 for a license plate isn't a biggie :cool:. T-Sportline video talking about the new e-plate available for folks in California. One of the "coming soon" features is relevant to our discussion here. Go to around 5:20 in the video.

    Software Update 2018.24.1 12dd099

    Car received 2018.24.1 with the vector maps. Greyscale maps are much more difficult for my older eyes to read at night. Considerably more difficult to read street names at night due to the lack of contrast between the background and the text labels. I also do miss the color on the maps.

    Guesstimated Headroom and Legroom

    Following this thread. I'm 6'3" and had the same question. I haven't put down my deposit, because I wasn't sure if I would fit. I tweeted Elon, and also asked folks at the LA Auto Show. Still haven't heard from anyone, but from the picture in the post above - if Franz can fit, I am probably okay.

    Version 17.4.14

    I just received 17.4.14 on my AP1 90D as well. No idea what changed. I will go for a drive in a bit and see if I find anything. I added my update to the firmware tracker. That makes only 2 of us so far.

    Charging at 30amps

    Happens to me as well. I set it to 40A, and it charges at that current for a period of time (days/weeks). Then, for no reason I can determine, one night it starts charging at 30A and stays that way. My remedy is that I have to stay up until the scheduled time for charging to begin and...
