    Supercharger - Marlton, NJ

    I snuck in off the back access road.. Sagemore Drive.. avoided all the traffic on rt 73 Note these 2 signs TESLA VEHICLE CHARGING ONLY TESLA PARKING OPEN TO ALL VEHICLES saw 2 ICE vehicles parked here legitimately

    Supercharger - Marlton, NJ

    I've read numerous posts on the traffic here.. know the area well.. So I don't believe these chargers were in anyway placed to accommodate distance driving. More like a 'destination supercharger' So you know the drill.. pay for stay in cash, inconvenience or ease of use. If I had to, I...

    Buyer beware. Buying a CPO Tesla feels like a SCAM.

    interesting..... this car looks like it was some type of internal TESLA corporate salvage recovery...... it obviously had some very sloppy work done on the panoramic roof... does it still leak, creak, or rattle profusely?? the other damage looks like what can happen when a vehicle sits...

    Fremont delivery - car refused

    Oh.. you mean brand new scrap huh? Like let the 1st responders chop it up for fun? ok.. that writes off a few of them... and they need to crash test a few as well... in TESLA years... 1000 isn't old! Cause I've seen people posting they've waited like 1000 years for their M3 delivery...

    Fremont delivery - car refused

    Never in 1000 years had I ever heard of ANY automotive manufacturer offing a new vehicle purchase under a "take it or leave it" policy.. Ridiculous I thank God for the patience to wait until TESLA finally got things improved for confidence in the MS.. that was in serial #'s 120XXX and...

    The "Is Tesla Going Bankrupt?" thread

    I'm not sure this would even matter to someone leasing.. you don't own the vehicle.. you are renting.. if TESLA goes belly up.. there will still be service facilities available . they may stop making vehicles for a time.. but who cares? Make your lease payments.. then dump the car back on the...

    Out of curiosity, what do you hate about your Tesla?

    Turn your Range Mode off if you're driving with it on.

    Out of curiosity, what do you hate about your Tesla?

    The WIFI is always searching and can't be disabled manually permanently .. this screws up my app on updating when I warm the car up. The unadjustable head rests.. which are addressed in the newer cars.. I had to buy a center console.. also addressed in the newer cars.. There was no cubby...

    Rear trunk won't open

    Dramatic?? Hey... like that hatch door latch jams.. and your car has to get towed during a rain storm back to the shop an hour away.. when you have better things to do... or how about just 40 hours into your new ride and oops.... it has to get flat-bedded back to the shop cause the thing...

    Cold weather "loss of power"

    Flat out you're gonna see a 30% decrease in range.... use the cabin heat or the defogger. much? . I noted the front and side window to fog generously when I run with my seat heat on and about 65 * in the car whenever it drops below 40 or so outside...... ... the pano roof will conduct heat...

    How common is a unexpected reboot of the touchscreen?

    ps.. that's MY birthday!! 54 years old and still a 'smart ass"

    How common is a unexpected reboot of the touchscreen?

    okay.... will do the entire procedure next time the screen asks for service.. so far almost 4 days since the last 'event" I'll reboot the screens (both) and power the car off and on after..... that should clear it out. totally.. or set me up for a tow back to TESLA!!

    How common is a unexpected reboot of the touchscreen?

    because you dig being a 'test subject' ? really.. here are the reasons I bought my TESLA... no more toxic gasoline or it's fumes... no more supporting foreign outfits that spill oil in our waters and on our lands that don't clean it up 100%.. no more supporting oil traders and speculators...no...

    How common is a unexpected reboot of the touchscreen?

    okay... I'll certainly take a photo and start logging each date the message appears until my next service visit if it goes that long... ... it's been appearing fairly regularly lately... at least once a week...and always cuts my audio sound level controls completely out....

    Bloomberg Tesla Autopilot Accident Story Today

    I was sold on AP till I experienced how it actually works.... or doesn't... if one has no prior experience with this system.. and is gullible enough to believe what elon himself said.. and what the TESLA sales staff promulgates they will buy this cruise control system on steroids thinking it...

    How common is a unexpected reboot of the touchscreen?

    yup.... that's exactly how it works... and I will have to drive 45 minutes with no audio or navigation.... where then they will likely tel me... "unable to duplicate concern" Ill keep rebooting until it fails completely....

    Bloomberg Tesla Autopilot Accident Story Today

    It's pretty tough to get honest anything here.. anyone that holds stock in TESLA, Solar City or SpaceV can't be trusted for unbiased info.... so this guy is really going out on thin ice of TMC ridicule by chancing honesty here.....

    Bloomberg Tesla Autopilot Accident Story Today

    Save yourself $2500 and avoid the AP option.... wait until another 30 day no strings test trial... you can see for yourself whether it's worth the money or not.. don't be mislead by TESLA "sales specialists" or hype.... and if you do use it.. BEWARE

    I 've used it enough to have multiple misgivings.. been off the road once thanks to it.. almost off the road a second time.. have disabled it now for about 4 months and will not use any longer.. it simply isn't trustworthy... you'll get caught just like the rest eventually.... In fact.. a guy...

    How common is a unexpected reboot of the touchscreen?

    My touchscreen is requesting a reboot every 3 or 4 days now... and it keeps asking me to take it to TESLA for service... I find the audio control has an X over it.. will not turn up by TS or steering control.... certainly becoming quite annoying.... ps.. you will find many A-holes here who...

    Bloomberg Tesla Autopilot Accident Story Today

    “But now I feel like this is extremely dangerous. It gives you a false sense of security. I’m not ready to be a test pilot. It missed the curve and drove straight into the guardrail. The car didn’t stop -- it actually continued to accelerate after the first impact into the guardrail.” NOT...

    4 BENT WHEELS!

    to me.. it sounds like somebody drove you car off a curb or into a curb,,,,or hit a high driveway curb approach at a very high rate of speed... even an area of road that was being "milled".. where the lip edge back onto the new highway was not properly ramped.. could cause this damage to all...

    THANKS FOR THE LINK!!! FIGURES IT"S IN NJ!! and did you see that car cut in front of him?? THAT"S EXACTLY what Nj people do!! (and the car slows.. and let's the next vehicle do the same thing...) Heck.. I don't really want to sue them.. I just want this software disabled from my vehicle and...

    My friend's model X crashed using AP yesterday

    I took 3 retailer test drives... about 2.5 hours total time....also drove an owner's MS 60 for an hour at an EV event,,, and had a MSP85 loaner for 30 hours... none of that was long enough to fully gain operational knowledge of the AP system... the 30 day free trail came too late for me.... had...

    Oh.. and this forum can remove my honest and truthful posts all day long... but that won't change the story one bit... best to all you fanboys.... I love the EV... and the ride.. the peace and quiet... the handling... the acceleration... the looks of envy.... but there is no such similar...

    Brother... I 100% have a TESLA..... both the payments and insurance to match....and I know and I am honest about it.... unlike many here... who own stock.. or have financial interests in the Musk triad....of which I have no involvement whatsoever.. ... I just drive the vehicle... which I think...

    I driven with the AP engaged for about 800 miles all in all of the 8400 on my MS ... about half highway and half local.... it drifts.. enough it almost makes me a bit sea sick....fails to set a middle of the lane on lots of decel and accel lanes (still) ... and lane pushes.....the ACC panic...

    My friend's model X crashed using AP yesterday

    TESLA will never offer a refund... ya see.. customer satisfaction isn't their HIGHEST calling... making the $$$$$ is.... but they will NOT get me again..... they'll have to bury it in some convenience package with other more worthy options to ever sell that to me again... Next time I opt for...

    My friend's model X crashed using AP yesterday

    yes... as presented by TESLA sales specialists.... I think only one was REALLY completely honest.. he said "It's a cool feature to have if you do a lot of highway driving but I'm not sure if you'll really get your money's worth in the type of driving you do on a routine basis"" He was 100%...

    My friend's model X crashed using AP yesterday

    Well... that is more or less the grand scheme right?? The holy grail of what mr musk is selling right?? But that is not where this system is at.. it is still an experimental system at this point.. but eventually.....the car comes when 'summoned" right?? all the way across the US? drives...

    My friend's model X crashed using AP yesterday

    I don't see why TESLA can't offer refunds for folks that want out of AP... I can't find alotta use for it personally.. shame I was misled at the retailer... had I known it was of such limited use in my daily driving.. I would not have spent the money on it... don't really care about much else...

    Autopilot on Freeway slowed down to a crawl twice today!

    so your answer then to this issue is?? would not a mountain block some satellites depending on the vehicle ground position and the satellites available to that ground area at that moment? if this isn't it.. than Is there an internal problem with the AP operation ?

    I'm no rocket scientist... but I have observed my hand held Garmin GPS temporarily lose satellites in the back-woods while on a hike... my mapping is DL-d into the GPS.. and remains.... but my position fails to appear... and my data is dropped for that period of time... the GPS just reconnects...

    Autopilot on Freeway slowed down to a crawl twice today!

    i wonder if your car is losing satellite connectivity in that area.... off and on... and the AP isn't going into a 'fail-safe" mode.... I note in some areas my nav screen breaks up or goes to checkerboard then repopulates.... I think the car is possibly losing cell connection... but it may be...
