I should have noted that since 2015 I have used an included Mobile Connector for home charging. I have carried it while traveling only one time when staying in the Adirondacks before SuperChargers came to the area. For indoor home charging a Mobile Connector works just fine. Having to buy a cord...

Elon Musk said from the outset that he expected owners to charge at home and that the SuperChargers are for travel use. Now how does that square with no mobile connector (not wall charger) supplied with the car?

Kind of like sellling an ICE car with no gas filler and requiring buyer to purchase same separately!

Friend has MY on order. Cars no longer come with mobile connector (ridiculous) and Tesla is out of stock! What’s wrong with this company?

Tesla says 1,5 hrs. Norwell told me 3 days, then screwed car up good! Hope you had better luck.

I took MS in for recall. SC took days for a 1.5 hr part swap & messed car up badly. SC wanted me to pay them to fix their screwups. I got car returned, wrote a letter to Palo Alto & got timely response. Had car taken to another SC where multiple screwups were easily remedied. Yes TESLA service...

Fault apparently loose connection at 12V battery. Easily diagnosed & repaired at second SC. Bottom line: car WITH NO PROBLEMS went to Norwell MA SC for eMMC RECALL & was totally screwed up by incompetent personnel, INCLUDING AFORESAID LOOSE CONNECTION. Letter to Palo Alto got immediate action...

Vehicle is back in service at second SC. Went in for eMMC recall & came back with lots of problems. Waiting to hear from SC. App is not available when in service. First SC COULD NOT DIAGNOSE!

2015 MS 85D went to Service Center for eMMC recall on 12/21/2021. Technicians upgraded eMMC and replaced touch screen and navigation module and put 55 miles on car, then claimed it ready for pickup on 12/27. Representative said car had Service Alert when we arrived to pick up vehicle. Service...

You Should be skeptical. The same thing just happened to me. After 7 days, the shop said the car was ready and tried to charge me for a Micro SD Card for navigation. They also claimed the MCU was unresponsive after the eMMC change. The MCU was fine when I dropped the car off for the recall last...

Modern ICE car’s engines make less noise than tires. On a par with TESLA! We don’t fake engine noise!

I would think there is a difference depending on whether one is in a no-fault state or not. Why would one be dealing with one's insurance company rather than the insurance company of the other driver if not in a no-fault state? I once got rear ended in NJ (not in a TESLA) and the offender's...

Ordered an MS in 2015. It was built and delivered within 30 days as promised. SC did a good job of delivering, No defects initially. Not long after, 12 volt battery was not up to par (only issue to date). Tesla Roadside came and replaced it. No complaints after 5+ years. Best car I have ever owned.

How about mfg dates or VIN Numbers?

I live on Cape Cod and would pay the same $0.23/kWh were it not for solar panels I installed in 2010. I typically pay three to seven cents per kWh, so I don't mind charging at home even though it increases my electric bill significantly. Prior to charging the 2015 MS 85D at home I paid one to...

A ”Trumpian” ploy,

As previously stated this was not FSD. For example, autopilot saved me in 2016 when a deluge of water was dumped on me from an overpass. Immediately beyond the overpass there was a lane closure narrowed by Jersey barriers to my right. In the period of time before the automatic wipers came on (it...

Even though TESLA has recently created the means to inform us of outages, the fact is this SC site has had a checkered history from the get-go!

Under "Vehicle" select "Mirror Auto Fold"

If by 16X you mean a 2016 Model X. FUS goes with the car.

Well, there are ways to avoid this as others have note in this thread. The onus is on you, not the wife. Now if TESLA would just fix the two-fob problem: i.e. if wife approaches the car on the passenger side the controls move to her configuration even though I am getting in on the driver's side...

Today I received software update that identifies non-working chargers v10.2 (2020.12.5 e2179e0650f0). Release note says: Supercharger stations now identify the number of out of order stalls, current availability, tap the Supercharger station map pin. Maybe someone at TESLA actually got the...

Eighteen days to fix the problem (hopefully it's really fixed now). Not very responsive.

I did reboot the MCU 3/20 with no result (first thing I tried). I sent a message to customersupport and got a response that this site is no longer monitored. Then I used online chat and was told I would be put in touch with customer support. Never heard anything, but today I checked the lights...

I downloaded v 10.2 yesterday and now the fog light indicator does not come on in front of the driver (because the fog lights don't come on). I got the "What's New" notice after the download and it speaks to only "Bluetooth Improvement" and "...Voice Command Reliability." Anyone else see this...

It would be interesting to know what email address you used. I called Roadside Assistance & Tech Support and got endless robots, the last one saying that Tesla monitors SCs & knows when one is out. Problem is that one apparently cannot determine if a site is operational without going there...

Tesla needs to be more proactive about outages. What happens when an SC is down, but appears normally in navigation app? People may rely on such information when low on power reserve only to get to the site and find it not working. Such is apparently the case with Wareham, MA. Twelve chargers &...

Directly from the recall letter from Tesla. Click the thumbnail below.

In May 2018 TESLA issued this same recall (NHTSA 18V-201) for the (2012-early 2016) MS' with essentially the same language.

I vote no, but if it is a no-cost option I don't care. The question does not mention cost. One of the best things about an EV is reduced noise. I suspect pickup truck drivers will vote yes;).

Put it on a Falcon and send it into space where it belongs!

I had the same thing happen to me Saturday night in Lincoln, MA. Difference is that I stopped as the AH was turning into my lane from a line on my right. The AH signaled, but did not look. Three passengers in my car also saw it and vocalized. I had to stomp hard on the brake. No contact. Sorry...

To the driver and passenger of the black X on the Mass Turnpike: You endangered yourselves and others and created a wealth of bad publicity for TESLA. TESLA does not need this kind of news coverage. Wake up or stay off the road!

Here's how AP can save your bacon: I was driving in the early morning (dark) under an overpass when a deluge of water was dumped from above (construction going on). I was completely blinded until the auto wipers kicked in. Immediately before me was a lane squeeze with Jersey barriers. AP worked...

Why is this tripe on this site? Clickhole = S**thole.

Nice to see an intelligent reply rather than the Chicken-Little responses i.e. "burn your house down" and other BS. When I got my MS in 2015 it came with a 14-50 adapter. I installed a 14-50 socket on a 240 V/30 AMP line with 6 gauge wiring. I then set the car to charge at 24 AMPs and put a...

I recently attempted to use a ChargePoint charger at Mystic (CT) Aquarium (matter of convenience). It was a CCS plug, so I couldn't use it. I can't imagine who is using this "Level 3" ChargePoint unit. ChargePoint (via phone) claims Tesla has an adapter for $300+. ChargePoint (via web) is...

I also mistyped as my system of 9.87 kW is producing about 10,500 kWh/yr (not 10.5). Thus the solar roof might just be less efficient than panels. The projection for my system in its 9th year is 10,180 kWh (originally 11,000 new). Newer panels are said to be more efficient and of higher capacity...

I have 9.87 kW (47 210 W panels; limited to 10 kW for self-reporting) on my roof. These were installed in late 2010 at a total cost of $47,765. Estimated payback was 6 years. Mine paid off in 5.25. My panels currently produce about 10.5 kWh year. I am now at 155% ROI and still being paid for xs...

At SCs? Aren't the cords too short?

Infuriating for sure. I recently witnessed a LYFT driver parked blocking a SC at Darien, CT I-95 Westbound. I took pictures of his license plate, but did not do anything with them.

Today I attempted to charge my 2015 model S at a ChargePoint station. ChargePoint has changed the connector on their level 3 charger. The Tesla adapter does not fit. Has anyone else had this experience? Is this just dumb on the part of ChargePoint or is there something else going on here...

So it knows the 14-50 adapter is 40 W. When I change it to a 14-30 won't it know that it's 30 W?

My 2015 MS knows what plug (socket) it is connected to!

I have solar panels (since 2010) facing170 degrees and 240 degrees with a total of 9.87 kW (a system above 10 kW cannot be self-reported in MA). As the car sits in the garage right now it shows 310 Wh/mi for the last 5.2 miles and 333 Wh/mi for the last 86, so you are in the ballpark. The Prius...

I have a Prius Hybrid. My Model S85D electric use beats it easily. Just a little over a quarter (27%). Prius @ 55 MPG with gasoline at $2.60/Gal. MA has the fourth highest electric rate in the 50, but I have solar panels.
