    Hit a curb right under the doors, on the skirt? Thoughts on costs to fix?

    Not even sure what this area is called to get an estimate. Has anyone done anything similar, any ballparks on cost and where I should go (any old bodyshop to tesla certified)?

    Charging doesn't start after being plugged in after last update

    Only started having this issue after the last update. Last night I got home with 52%, plugged it in like usual, it "clicked" as usual and this morning it's still at 52%. It will be plugged in and not actually start charging, I've noticed a couple times that if I turn the climate on it will just...

    Enhanced Summon, NoA with no stalk confirmation

    Oh boy, this is going to be good. As someone who has seen this in action this won't end well.

    Severe problem with Auto Lane Changes

    Funny, this morning it was all over the place and the only thing that has changed is the sun because of DST. The reflections and shadows are much more intense now and it doesn't like that I guess.

    Don't buy FSD for $2k more. [from 2019 - FSD upgrade not available for 2k at this time]

    I love this much. There are so many people defending their decision to purchase a very expensive future software update that nobody knows what will be in it or when it will come. All we have is a few tweets from Elon who has been known to be very optimistic about what can be done with the...

    Don't buy FSD for $2k more. [from 2019 - FSD upgrade not available for 2k at this time]

    Right, in my professional opinion based off my experience both in software/hardware and using the existing product tells me what they have installed on the cars is not enough. The professional opinion of many many smart people in the autonomous vehicle space (Every single company one except...

    Don't buy FSD for $2k more. [from 2019 - FSD upgrade not available for 2k at this time]

    I'm betting I'll want a new car before FSD is even close to be usable(5-7 years), thus, purchasing it even at $2k seems like a waste. Everyone has different needs, I for one have no trust that the car will stop for lights or signs 100% of the time and if it's not 100%, I won't use it. After...

    Don't buy FSD for $2k more. [from 2019 - FSD upgrade not available for 2k at this time]

    Why they would probably have a class action law suit on their hands if they failed to go through with this what you're missing, and what most people are missing is there is NO definition of what FSD is. So, there is absolutely nothing stopping Tesla coming out tomorrow and saying FSD is here...

    Reduced price Autopilot & FSD for existing owners announced March 1st

    Has there ever been a tweet or documents showing what system "not paying attention" would be under? I don't want FSD but I'm worried that when they finally release updates that allow you to not keep your hands on the wheel on the highway it will be part of FSD and I'll be pissed.

    Smart summon liability?

    You would think, I wouldn't get my hopes up if I were you. ;-) It will have its use case, yours might be the best one, but for 95% of the other people it will be a parlor trick to show friends which is a shame.

    Smart summon liability?

    It doesn't require it which is why I think it's a bad idea to release this. I picture some idiot standing in line paying for something and trying to have it pick them up in the front of the store. Most people won't do this but it only takes a few idiots, and they exist as shown by the various...

    Smart summon liability?

    I've provided feedback. Oh, and it can navigate a parking lot as long as it's empty or you don't mind waiting 45 minutes while it stops when the wind blows. Think about this. There are no lane markers in parking lots. Picture your car pulling out of the spot and trying to drive to get you and...

    Smart summon liability?

    That's accurate. But, they don't show it...because, it doesn't work well.

    Smart summon liability?

    That's why I said, normal. ;-) So, IF it finds a spot it's SLOW as hell...it's much faster, unless you really don't like parking to just do it yourself. Every time I've tried I feel like a fool waiting for it.
  15. RyanDe

    Smart summon liability?

    This is the problem, they will release it it will just suck...so, why bother? Just like autopark and summon now they're cool on paper and to maybe show off but are not actually practical for normal people to use.

    Smart summon liability?

    Unlike summon which used BT probably so you had to be close this uses LTE so you can be further away it's only software that is limiting. But, this means there is nothing stopping someone from starting it while they are in line or walking to the car etc which is where the trouble will start...

    Smart summon liability?

    You have to read through the marketing. Remember back when they said AP could do X and Y and then you got it and it could do x and y instead? Well, the same thing with ES. Can it find you in a parking lot? Sure, if it's an empty parking lot and you're within line of site and your car and your...

    Hudson MA or Auburn MA super charger if stopping?

    Coming west, could stop at either, which is "better" in terns of location/availability?

    Is Autopilot as awesome for you as it is for me?

    Wonder if I've seen you, I usually get on exit 38/39 on 93 in MA and exit 28-30. AP is now on starting on the ramp and off at the ramp. love it, main reason I got the car.

    Frozen window remedies

    Yup, ran it for 15 minutes today at 74, windows and doors still stuck. I shouldn't have to preheat longer than that, still feels wrong doing it that long as it takes under 5 for the car to heat up.

    UMC frozen in charge port, roadside assistant never picked up. Not happy

    So since this even my windows and door handles have been frozen every day even without rain/snow. WTF, this is going to be horrible this winter.

    Frozen window remedies

    This has happened every morning for the past 5 days. Door handles need to be hit with a hand to open and then they stay open until you push them back in. 3 of the windows were frozen this morning, making my morning routine with kids that much more painful. The credit card slid between the seal...

    That would mean covering it every other day here in New England. :-)

    UMC frozen in charge port, roadside assistant never picked up. Not happy

    I'm pretty sure it was frozen. It was raining when I plugged it in so water probably got in plus I didn't wipe the plug clean before plugging it in and it got very cold that night. It also didn't feel locked because I manually released it using that string in the trunk and when I pushed the...

    UMC frozen in charge port, roadside assistant never picked up. Not happy

    I can say this is the first bad experience I've had with my car but it's also the first time it's been this cold so I'm really worried about what is going to happen this winter. We were in Vermont this weekend and when it came time to check-out in the morning the mobile charger wouldn't come out...

    Who has lost regen with winter tires?

    I doubt this, this sounds like a security concern. They'll patch it and release in a small "small fixes" patch like they usually do. I got winter ties on but I'm pretty sure I noticed this regen issue right after the last update, the one that supposedly added more aggressive regen.

    I built two, one is next to the stairs on my way down and the other is next to the door if I forget on the way out.

    Software Update 2018.39.x (Version 9)

    I guess if this is what you have to worry about all day your life must be pretty good. There is no conspiracy here, the updates are rolling out, you'll get them when you get them.

    Software Update 2018.39 4a3910f (plus other v9.0 early access builds)

    Software Update 2018.39 4a3910f (plus other v9.0 early access builds)

    Can anyone chime in that has v9 about if autopilot is better overall too? I've seen and read a bunch about how it changes lanes etc but is it just better overall now? Better at staying in the lane, not stopping/accelerating too quickly, recognizing cars coming into your lane?

    How to shut off the rainbow road easter egg music?

    Maybe not the rainbow but I too would like a larger indicator, a few times it’s been off when I thought it was on.

    I did, that just started it over. :-( I think it's a bug.

    How to shut off the rainbow road easter egg music?

    Turned it on for the first time last night for the kids and it played the music and changed the road but when I turned off autopilot the music wouldn't shut off. I tried everything and even worse it doesn't play through the radio so the volume/mute doesn't work. Eventually the actual music...

    Trim coming off under both doors

    Sorry, bad picture. If I step away from the car 10' or so and look you can see the little sag and it's happening on both sides. I tried to push it up but it doesn't stay, is there something I can do myself to fix this?

    Observed public perception of the Model 3 being the inferior budget model coming from 2 Tesla family

    Had tints put on yesterday and one of the guys that works on hundreds of cars asked if it was an S. He's a car guy.

    Four days in, two error messages.

    Interesting tidbit, this did happen after an update and after it went away (stop, start again) it hasn't come back. Guess I'll see if it happens after the next update.

    Model S REST API

    There are no energy apis, huh? I guess I could try to calculate it based off charging time, miles, etc.

    Observed public perception of the Model 3 being the inferior budget model coming from 2 Tesla family

    Badging only helps the high end models, everyone else feels inadequate. Since they're aiming for the mass market I think it's smart to get rid of the badge, it means nothing and most people (even owners) have no idea what they mean. I remember when I had my BMW I often came across people who had...

    Waiting for model 3 - what should I do to be planning for charger

    Do it now. I waited until I got the car and then was in a hard place because I couldn't travel that far because I could only charge back like 50 miles a day. Now that I have the wall connector I don't worry about going anywhere as it's fully charged every morning. If you don't want the wall...

    I don't see why you'd need the quicker model 3.

    Okay, I take back my initial post. After owning the car for two weeks I'm already feeling like it's "slow". This morning I stepped on it already going about 40 and thought it was in chill mode (it wasn't) because it wasn't going as fast as I wanted. Time to start saving for the performance...

    Observed public perception of the Model 3 being the inferior budget model coming from 2 Tesla family

    I've met two S owners at super chargers and both loved the 3, they pointed out things that were better. People in MA/NH don't see a lot of Teslas so I think to them it's a nice car and only the people who follow Tesla know it's the less expensive one.
