    A question for No. Calif. delivered Tesla 3's: how long to receive plates?

    If you are asking for the sticker, you can send in the form as soon as you have your vin. By the time they process it, your plates will be issued.

    Yellow screen? Force Tesla to Replace it!

    It is strange that Tesla can make a screen for the 3 that doesn't have this issue yet can't seem to fix the issue for the S and the X. You would think they would use the same glue or method they use on the 3 for new S/X screens. Maybe there is just some fundamental flaw in the S and X screen...

    Yellow screen? Force Tesla to Replace it!

    If tweeting Elon doesn't work there are a few other Tesla execs on twitter who might not be too busy to ignore upset customers: @samteller - Director, Office of the CEO @KeelyScenario - Director global communications @robinren - VP worldwide sales

    Yellow screen? Force Tesla to Replace it!

    Google searches reveal that their arbitration cost is between 500-1000. It would be interesting if anyone could get how many cases he has on this, and how much they cost exactly out of him. I also think we should initiate a tweatstorm/eecb against Elon on this. Based on the fact he claims he...

    Yellow screen? Force Tesla to Replace it!

    The trick is to call a few service centers that morning and get names of people you spoke to and times of call. He can't dispute that when you have multiple data points.

    Yellow screen? Force Tesla to Replace it!

    Call sales and ask to be transfered. Its the only way I have found that works consistently. The problem is it needs to be a location with both I think.

    Yellow screen? Force Tesla to Replace it!

    Just file the case, it literally takes like 10 minutes to file. It's faster then trying to call them.

    Tesla Customer Service is a Black Hole

    Best way I have found to get someone is call a service center that has sales attached. Call the SALES number, where they always miracously answer. Then be asked to transfer

    Yellow screen? Force Tesla to Replace it!

    The arbitration has a lemon law option. That way you wouldn't need a lawyer. They also can't retaliate against you for it. If they do, you can go after them for more damages in most states.

    Yellow screen? Force Tesla to Replace it!

    Do oral. It's only a half hour meeting and allows you to state your case clearly. I believe that is the reason I won mine as well.

    Yellow screen? Force Tesla to Replace it!

    Good point! We have significant reason to believe (based on what he has told multiple members here, including myself) that he is reading this thread. If Tesla really cared, he could provide his contact information on this forum and create a priority list.

    Question for those of you that have opted for in person. Do you know if the person from Tesla is local to where you live or they have to fly someone from the bay area?

    I'd proceed with the case.

    That's the same thing they told the OP. Is your response the EXACT same as his, verbatim?

    Yellow screen? Force Tesla to Replace it!

    That is intimidation pure and simple. Especially the faintly veiled threat around Tesla working well with you in the future. I'd honestly report him to the bar association.

    Still looks like there is faint yellow. It's MUCH better, but doesn't look 100%

    New screens now available

    Keep in mind this is a problem several of these people have had for YEARS. It's not as if this showed up two weeks ago and Tesla is only asking for a few weeks to fix it. NOW NOW NOW is not really accurate there. I have had the yellowing for 5 months now, greater then 30% of the time I had the...

    Why didn't you refuse the delivery and/or make them add it as an action item?

    New screens now available

    The cost is not the point as has been messaged here. Also, looks like it may be worth just taking them to arbitration based on the other post that just appeared.

    Yellow screen? Force Tesla to Replace it!

    It's good to see how easy this process is. I've been contemplating it for awhile. This is a third report I've heard in the past few weeks of someone successfully using arbitration against Tesla. If they end up with a class action, it would be fascinating to find out where their win/loss...

    Dispute Resolution - Ncds / Screen Defects / Anyone Ever Try This?

    I went through the process as well, assuming a favorable result (I should hear any day now), I will be posting the entire transcript in a new thread, including the same lawyer (Ryan Mccarthy) written response from Tesla, and details of all of their arguments. As well as their admission it is...

    Update from Tesla service on screen yellowing

    Who was your arbitrator? We went through arbitration for this on Monday as well. Lawyer on Tesla side was the same person. Still awaiting hearing back from NCDS

    Software Update 2018.39 4a3910f (plus other v9.0 early access builds)

    My 2018 S has downloaded 55GB in the past day or so, since I connected it to wifi, it has never been connected before. That seems oddly large to me. (Mac 90:3a:e6:xx:xx:xx is early 2017 75s, right?)

    Sunnyvale Service Experience

    Clear xperts wheel bra. I'd honestly just ask for a refund and have it fully redone elsewhere if I thought that was possible. He has had my car on and off for 3-4 weeks doing various patch up work on it.

    Sunnyvale Service Experience

    The Matte chamelon(Caribbean shimmer flip) you saw was most likely mine. It's in for autopilot refusing to turn itself on. I've been fighting with the guy that did it for months to fix the shoddy work on it. (and to put the damn Ts back on) Next time I'm going to one of the bigger names.

    Door fake leather issues

    Has anyone noticed issues with the fake leather on their doors? Both of my front doors have a circular area, looks almost the size of a screw that is damaged. I know I have not had any sharp objects up front and the only work I have had done on the car was the wrap, which was done quite awhile ago.

    Waiting on mine to finish being wrapped. Taking awhile because they are doing it in extreme detail (taking off front and rear bumpers and other parts to ensure no gaps are shown) 3M Caribbean shimmer flip.

    CA HOV White sticker

    You actually can apply without Plates, they just don't want you to :) As long as the application is processed AFTER the plates have been issued, you are fine. This is what we did for our S and Ford Focus Electric, it is what we are doing for our 3. @Ritu_o0o : I called yesterday and was told...

    California DMV - Plates & HOV Stickers

    FYI they are running about 3 weeks right now. I called yesterday and was told they were processing 2/21. They also confirmed that the red stickers will be the extended ones. Granted, she also told me they are still sending white/green and won’t send red till next year, which we know is wrong.

    California DMV - Plates & HOV Stickers

    It really only makes sense for the red to be the extended ones, otherwise it is a ton of extra paperwork and work to create the new ones, plus they went through the effort of a new color for 9 months? Absurd. That said: I picked up my 3 on 3/8, mailed for stickers on 3/9 (with our S, I learned...

    2018 CA HOV Stickers

    The wording of the law is pretty terrible. If it is executed like it sounds, EVERYONE will lose access on Jan 1, then they need to reapply after Jan 1 for the new stickers.

    Let's talk financing rates

    The rate he gave me was 2.49 for 72 months, 1.99 for 60 months. He stated that with a valid offer he could match the 72 to 1.99 potentially, but could not gaurentee until after application

    NOTE FOR ALL INTERESTED IN THE PVFCU rate: My banker just informed me they are no longer allowing memberships outside of state. If you are in Virginia, you should absolutely try it (my guess is DC and MD are close enough also), but no more for us in CA. Apparently the flood of requests they...
