The yellow screen problem and their refusal to fix it under warranty is frightening - see Yellow screen? Force Tesla to Replace it! What will be next in disavowed warranty claims?

Took numerous appointments to get the airbag replaced as was bounced back and forth between the SC and Mobile - the SC would refer to the Mobile which would take 3 weeks or more for an appointment, then they would cancel saying they didn't have the parts - then start all over 3 times. The...

Couldn't agree more with the well-stated captioned post. Same as with my 9/30/2016 S75 that became relatively obsolete 10 days later with introduction of the V2 AP to my surprise and chagrin. There's No entry point to buy a new car and the "old" ones crater in value with the new ones constantly...

With my 2016 MS that I purchased on 9/29/2016, had I known that the AP 2.0 would be available just days later, obviousLy I would have waited. Since there's no entry point with model years, and the depreciation is so atrocious, how can anyone buy/trade for a new MS when it may have relative...

Thanks for the infolrmation. BTW, had SC appt on Monday. They replaced the outside air actuator and Amazingly, the AC is cooling great, the battery usage is back to 250-320 wH/mi and the compressor is quiet like it was when new! I wonder if that all could be due to a faulty valve?? I hope the...

There definitely was a 26.3 briefly as I have seen screenshots that others have taken also. Must’ve had serious problems and they removed it. Will try the power off if the SC appointment on Monday can’t resolve the problems. Thanks.

Same here. My 2016 MS75 got rolled back today after less than 24 hours. The 26.3 much improved my AC, battery usage and loud compressor. Now, back to the same problems.

9/30/2016 MS-75 Very loud compressor and poor cooling this summer. Recent battery usage is way up also, A recent FW update to 2018.26.3 brought a big improvement to all 3 problems - but then they rolled it back today (26.2 less than 24 hours later) and back to the same problems. Waits for SC...

Tesla pulled back the 26.3 to 26.2 and the cooling problem has returned with high battery usage. AC compressor sounds like a jet turbine running wide open.

Got 26.3 and AC started working great and energy usage much improved. Then, today they took it away with an update to 26,2 and back to the same problems as before. Never heard of Update going backwards.

Received 26.3 update last night for my ‘16 MS75. The Airconditioning is now working great and the battery usage is much better - low 300’s compared to mid 400’s. Lots of sweating and talking to the Lexus dealer about going back to their products after much frustration.

2016 MS75 AP1. Since this update, the energy usage is reported as >400 wH (in the past was 290-320) and phantom drain yesterday was 45 miles used with a 95 mile loss of range. Also, the Airconditioning is cooling very poorly. Range mode On has minimal impact on both problems. SC says battery...

Paying 6.8 cents per KwH fixed price for 18 months in Texas. A bit less than 2 cents per mile compared to my Lexus Hybrid - ES300h at about 6.5 cents per mile. BTW, we also have No state income taxes and housing costs are still $150-$200 per foot for most houses - or $300 per foot for very...

Thanks DukeofURL. Presumably the cabin and battery would already be heated (at least initially) since you wouldn't likely start out on a trip with a road closure. With the rough estimate of 1% drop per hour, say a 4 hour closure, would result in only a 3-4 mile loss? So, with an arrival buffer...

I have heard of several instances of extended road closures due to the recent cold weather throughout many parts of the U.S. I wonder what would be the impact of becoming stranded in such a situation? Take a notional remaining trip of 80 miles to the nearest recharge (say a SC) with a current...

Yea, It just started working today

Ever since 2017.32.6 it won't stream anymore and give Loading Error. Doesn't seem to be any rush to fix the annoying problem with a new release.

Tech support states that the last update has a known problem with internet streaming but not on wifi.

Mine has gone from 290 to 330 or more. Internet radio streaming has quit working on my Midel S - HW1.

Internet radio streaming has quit working at all when not on WiFi.

New problem with this release? When stopped at a traffic light, the car in front appears to jump a forward then back in the center display. Have not seen this behavior in the past and I'm not sure if it's indicative of other issues.

Model S - AP1 (9/30/2016 purchased new). The AP still will swerve from one side of lane to the other intermittently and will occasionally swerve to take an Exit on an un-commanded basis (hopefully, I won't be reported for DUI). The dynamic cruise control is much more reliable but it will...

Very disappointing that the blind spot monitoring doesn't work when the web site clearly stated that as a feature when I purchased my MS. I still have the web site description printed. With the end of September 2016 model which was 2 weeks before the advent of the HW2, it's unlikely there will...

Arlington SC photo taken last weekend

Have been planning past several months to drive to MEM from DAL this week. Looks like Hertz will be the solution.

Ever since I purchased my Model S at the end of September 2016 (unknowingly 2 weeks before HW2), the Media Player has been erratic: 1) It constantly loses connectivity to the Tunein station and the "action wheel just rotates", or.. 2) It switches to an adjacent favorite station. On a 20...

Update received today - probably won't be able to use it for early May trip from DAL to MEM: Thank you for your email. We are happy to share that the Little Rock, AR Supercharger is approaching construction. There are a number of scenarios that can affect the timeline for a new site, so we...

Thanks so much CarlA for the update! Hopefully, it can be built soon as it's vitally needed to enable trips from MEM west toward Dallas. I don't understand all the previous Tesla team reports that it "is still under construction" when physical construction hasn't even began yet (disappointing).

Due to the conflicting responses, I tend to agree with S85D. I presume that there are plans to develop one in LIT someday since it leaves a gaping hole in being able to travel efficiently in Tesla vehicles (and the very reason that many of us chose this brand).

Still doesn't explain why it isn't listed as being under construction. Latest reply - as of this morning - my bold emphasis added: Hello xxxx Thank you for contacting Tesla Customer Support. We apologize for the discrepancy regarding the Little Rock Supercharging station. Our team here at...

Please see the response just received.... I can't find "under construction" on the Tesla web site or supercharge.info Hi xxxx, Thank you for your email. The Little Rock, AR Supercharger Station is still under construction. We are actively working to open this site and hope to have the...

I concur with ahurst post above. With a 6 figure (or nearly so) cost for most Tesla models, it's unimaginable that there isn't a SC in LIT and Ft. Smith. I have to rent a car to go from Dallas to Memphis or OKC to MEM?? Or, spend hours waiting to re-charge in the desert of AR. Better call Hertz...

So, it's almost impossible to travel I-30 and I-40 from Dallas to Memphis without resorting to a slow destination charger, e.g. at the Holiday Inn in Little Rock and wait a few hours (last reported @ 25 mi/hr)?

Ok - so the post that follows from another thread on this web site is not true? Their SC map doesn't show anything under construction. From: Supercharger <[email protected]> Date: Friday, December 2, 2016 at 7:46 PM To: Ray Smith <[email protected]> Subject: RE: Superchargers in...

I'm confused - Is there a SC under construction in LIT?. Please see my email to Tesla yesterday and their response today. My email: Was trying to plan a trip from Dallas to Memphis but the distance from Texarkana to Memphis looks like it will exceed the range of my S75. Is Tesla going to add a...

Same problem here as others in this 23 page forum although a conversation with the local SC acts as though they have never heard of the problem: 1) Auto-Open works almost all the time unless I am driving slowly up the driveway as it triggers too soon (would be nice if you could program the...

Under 300 Wh per mile and not always driving conservatively,

Very disappointing that the BSM in my 9/29/2016 has never worked reliably. It was advertised online and confirmed by the salesman as functional and "amazing" although I assumed in a good way. My timing was terrible as v2.0 of the AP was released days after my purchase. The BSM in my Lexus was...

Same here with version 8 and sudden inexplicable lane swerving. 2016 Model S 9/2016. No apparent solution?

Bad for us that got the AP1 delivered 2 weeks before the 2.0 announcement.

My September 2016 - pre AP 2.0 doesn't see anything in the blind spot unlike my 2015 Lexus that worked great.

Blind spot doesn't work on the September 2016 model S (pre AP 2.0).

Not sure if it's a defect, but in my 2016 S (purchased days before new AP), the blind spot monitoring doesn't show anything unless the car is alongside.

My previous Lexus ES300h blind spot monitoring worked perfectly. The operation of my September 2016 model S is almost useless for blind spot monitoring. It's a disappointment as I miss the confirmation of the visual observations.

Was advised by the Plano ntta office this afternoon that the bar attached to your plate will quit working as of year end 2016. I have tried all over the front windshield of my 2016 S75 without success. Has anyone had success with the inside of the sunroof or the rear window?
