    Sirius XM Disconnect Issues

    Our Model S SirusXM Radio continually cuts out for seconds to a minute. Also, the favorites button stops working for SiriusXM favorites, even though the favorite stations remain starred. We have to unstrap (un-favorite) each of our favorite stations and then re-star them in the order we want...

    I've loved Tesla for 7 years. But after years of abuse, I'm out

    As a 'Signature' customer, it's more like being 100 out of 1,000 then and 100 out of 1,000,000 now. Why would one choose to be a Signature customer (I did not, myself) unless expecting some special recognition for it?

    NoA is worthless, Autopilot is essentially unimproved from 2016-2017, and everybody has caught up.

    We went through all of that and more in our 2016 and 2019 Model S's. We have resorted to rarely even using AP, even on urban highways, and it makes us much happier. I'm happy with my Tesla with AP off. Every car I've had since 2004 had working adaptive cruise control, until the Tesla's.

    Things my wife said about Navigate on Autopilot tonight

    The same thing happens to us over and over, locally and especially on long trips, but with a lot more cussing and a lot more acknowledgment that the dumbest human driver in the world is better and doesn't make such 'mistakes'. Our other car is a Chevy Bolt EV and it's fine and we go through a...

    PW + Charging overnight --- and power goes out at 1AM

    The option might be to set a charge level that you want to reach once charging starts. This same thinking might, but probably doesn't, apply to one who wants to store cheap nighttime power in a Powerwall for more expensive daytime use, now that the Powerwall has Time-based control.

    Realized today I'm a better driver because of Tesla

    On our many LONG road trips we run into this constantly. When it happens we gasp (or worse) and scream madly that the dumbest human driver would have handled it but not Tesla's AP. Once it was a tire laying in our lane so we needed to swerve around it. In that case a Tesla on FSD would have run...

    25 minute hold for emergency roadside service

    We have had decent Tesla roadside service for 5 flat tires. We would generally have to wait in a queue and be towed to where the tire could be put back on. We learned to get rid of the 21" wheels. Is the hockey puck due to the Tesla logo being 2 hockey sticks?

    Just returned from a 3 week roadtrip in all types of conditions

    We take tons of road trips. We've driven to Kansas and back, by different routes, 4 times from California. We've driven to Yellowstone twice, back when they had no supercharger southern route to even get there and none in the park (RV park has 240v 50A connector but they wouldn't let us park...

    Free unlimited supercharging vs (paying for) installing charger at home...

    It depends on your lifestyle. If time matters to you, skip trying to supercharge constantly. The answer also depends on your usage. Some can get by on a 110 v (Level 1) charge every night but others have long daytime usage that would far surpass that, in which case a 240v outlet is needed, at...

    Why I sold my 1-month old Tesla Model S.

    Even with the lemon law, you don't get a brand new car, just an equivalent used one. And 'equivalent' doesn't include emotional loss. So the $15K would still have been lost.
