    Renting a Y from Hertz?

    I have rented several EV's from Enterprise and it was never required to return it with a charge. I heard that Hertz was unloading all of their Teslas due to the complications and costs to repair.

    Are replacement 12v batteries covered by any warranty?

    Once you have the 12V battery replaced, Tesla will warranty it for 30 months. I just had one replaced by mobile service $119 total in 2018 model 3. Great experience.

    7 Major Automakers Band Together to build their own Network.

    Tesla is the only company that paid back their government loans EARLY! The other automakers are slow walking their loans. So yes they get subsidies and incentives to build new facilities, but so do the others when they are expanding.

    Has anyone cut ties with your utility in California?

    The regulations say that you have to be connected to "A grid" . It does not say that you have to be connected to the local utility. I see no reason that if you have a reliable Microgrid of your own design that you would not be able to disconnect. I had all the regulations copied and ready to...

    Has anyone cut ties with your utility in California?

    I went off grid for 6 months last summer but did not actually cut the cord. 15Kw solar plus 4 Powerwalls. It is difficult to do in the wintertime with multiple cars charging and cloudy days.

    Gen 2 Wall Connector Issues

    You can only pull 40 amps from a 14-50 plug continuous. 80% of rated power. Set the HPWC to 40 amps. Check to see that the car is set to charge at 40 amps. Check the wiring behind the plug. You should have #6 copper wire. Check to see how the car ramps up the power use and check the connection.

    Did Tesla Screw You too? (Registration)

    You can lemon law it as you have given them plenty of opportunity to remedy. I don't think the lemon law applies just to mechanical defects. You have a defect in title. I got a car with no paperwork whatsoever. They told me to drive it.
