Put this in your equation...Long Range has a better sound system.

For many years, you couldn't answer/hang up the phone from the wheel. Huge improvement.

Thanks. I went ahead and hit the buy button. We will have to meet up some time. I'm going to try to take delivery in Chattanooga, which is now my closest store.

I got my order invitation last night. Order #112878..., Alabama. Delivery estimated Mar-May. Before I make the decision to buy a Founders Edition, can someone point me to some real world owner reviews so I can make sure I'm going to be happy with this? This would be my 3rd Tesla. Thx

Well, since I wrote this post 2 days ago, I got my invite to purchase a Cybertruck. Now I have to get serious about my research.

Can someone explain why the new model 3 has reduced range compared to the old version? In the case of the RWD, it's about 25 miles less. Is the wheels, the battery or more accurate "truth in advertising". I currently own a model 3 RWD and was thinking about getting the new version. I don't...

I have the same problem on my 2023 model 3. I've posted the problem in a couple of Tesla facebook groups and just get a bunch of non-answers. I actually have a tech coming to my house shortly for an air filter change. I'll ask him what he know.

Are model 3's currently being delivered with Matrix headlights? I'm considering buying a RWD version and I can't seem to find a definitive answer to this question anywhere. Thanks

Is anybody aware of any progress on service related issues? I'm getting frustrated enough with it that I've been thinking about trading for something else. I love my car, but 24 man-hours to drop and pick up my car for an A/C repair is more time than I have.

I have 3 places where I have this happen to me routinely. They all have the following characteristics: 1) Downhill 2) Bumpy 3) Near terminal braking I’ve been over these spots hundreds of times and it happens every time unless I plan ahead and go even slower. However, the problem went away 2...

For a brief time earlier this year, Tesla was selling a wall charger with a 14-50 plug on it. I had planned to buy one but it disappeared from the web site before I could order. There are a couple of threads about it, speculating that it got pulled over regulatory issues.

Agree totally. Every time I read one of these, I truly consider ditching the Tesla before the inevitable happens.

I have found that wheel cleaner seems to do the trick. I spray wheel cleaner on the dirty parts, wipe down with a cloth and then rinse with water.

Ultimately, this is the reason insurance rates are sky high relative to cost on Teslas. And, unfortunately, I don't see it getting better.

Only Used Tesla | A Place Exclusively Dedicated To Buying And Selling Used Teslas

There was a thread somewhere on here where customers took delivery of cars connected to Super Charger at the Tesla Store and were immediately charged an idle fee. I have no problem with idle fees as long as I know the rules but Tesla customer service is beyond bad these day.

When you manually raise the air suspension, the car memorizes where you were and raises it in that location every time you go there. So, you must have passed a location where the previous owner had programmed. You can erase these locations and start over.

Why do other brands not have these same problems with previois owners not forwarding titles.

New bug (Elon would call it a feature) in 46.2 Let's say you want to turn on your steering wheel heater. Press the fan button and then the steering wheel button. After the fan button, there is a choice on the left side between A/C controls and heated seats/steering wheels. On older versions...

I got it last night. I had 2 bugs on my wish list. 1. iPhone auto plays music when getting in the car. I can confirm that this is not solved. 2. Turning on climate control from the app used to turn on the seat heaters prior to v9. I have not had a chance to check this yet.

Same issue. iPhone xs. I suspect that this problem is also related to the new issue where music automatically starts playing on your phone when it connects to the car.

I just don’t understand why new cars are being delivered in such poor condition. My friend had numerous delays in his delivery. Looking back, we both think it was cover for them repainting parts of his car. His rear doors are slightly different colors than the rest of the car and the trim is...

I’m honestly amazed somebody hasn’t sued them over this already. Other than making a really cool car, they do very little to keep customers happy and eventually, that will get them sued.

How many miles did you drive with those chains? That’s quite a groove.

There is a recent thread out there on either this forum or Tesla discussing smoke smells. I even bought my own ozone generator. You can make it better, but it does keep popping back up.

This whole concept of buy without looking or test driving is amazing to me.

Speed doesn’t kill. Sudden deceleration does though.

I bought an ozone generator on eBay (much cheaper that way). It worked well, but was never perfect. The odor would bleed through again after a few weeks. I think the ultimate answer lies with Jason above. And like he says, it may never be perfect. There are some parts of that car that are...

Yep. Seems to have disappeared during recent software updates.

Last winter, I was pumped when the app and software were updated so that I could pre heat my seats when I remotely turned on the heat. Of course, this was only as long as I left the seat heaters and steering wheel heater on when I left the car, but I was good with doing that. Well, it’s gotten...

It is a bunch of crap. It’s typical Tesla service which is non-existent. This is just one of those things you fix for a customer. Everybody knows they will not fix this because they will never call you back. It’s how they roll. When people ask me about my car, I tell them that the car is an...

What a bunch of crap. I agree with you.

Is there a size of exped that fits perfectly? They seem to be too wide or too narrow (31 inches).

The online store is typical Tesla. Zero communication. Recently, I decided to buy a wall charger. Rather than deal with the online store, I just bought one off of eBay.

I bought a Tesla in ATL and didn’t have to pay GA sales tax.

I've ordered several things from them with similarly rotten service. They charge your card immediately and then months later, you have nothing and can't get hold of them. I've emailed them a number of times asking to cancel my order, all with no response. On one occasion, I just had...

Well, I'm glad you are ok now. A couple of thoughts: 1) I just don't see any way that this won't eventually turn into a total loss. There are just too many body panels involved for it not to be based on pics we have seen on this site 2) What in the heck was the other driver thinking? 3) What...

I’m interested in how you weathered the accident. Do you feel like the Tesla did its job?

So this is now weird. I discovered this thing with the Apple Watch yesterday morning when I was not wearing my Apple Watch. Then, yesterday evening I wore my Apple Watch and could not trigger the problem. This had happened every single time I got in my car until yesterday. There were no...

Ok. I’d like to hear eveyone’s thoughts on this. My phone plays music in the car after any phone utilization. If I make a call, I get a short burst of music until I get back to the radio. If I use Siri, I get the same. Now, here’s something I discovered today. All of this is only if I’m...

I am presuming this is a Tesla issue (as opposed to an Apple issue) since this doesn’t happen on my other cars or Bluetooth devices.

Make sure you let go of the music frame last. I had the same issue

If I use the “hey Siri” function, for a brief second after Siri hangs up, I get blasted with a word or two of whatever song is playing before the car reverts back to the radio. VERY irritating.

How to stop your iPhone from autoplaying music in the car If you scroll to the bottom of this article, you can disallow CarPlay. I just turned it off. I’ll see if this solves the problem later today.

The whole deception thing really makes me think I won't buy another Tesla. That's just complete BS and really makes me wonder what they are up to. I hope they read this.

Bueller?!

I just don’t understand how this happens and, more importantly, why it’s not caught and corrected prior to reaching the customer. Are these blemishes coming from the factory or are they cars that have gone from bad to worse when they try to repaint a car with some blemishes.

I’m just curious. What do you suppose you could sell your car for today with 200k miles?

Has Tesla ever made any comment on their inability to supply parts? I was considering adding a M3 to the family but I decided this situation is going to have to get better before I do. I stopped in the Tesla store in Dallas and asked the sales guy. He said it’s all better now that the M3 line...

I ordered mine months ago. They shipped a few days ago. Due to arrive Wednesday.
