    Cracked forelink?

    Last week, broken driver front fore link on 2017 Model S with 25K miles (yeah, low mileage). Pulling out slowly from a parking space, turn the wheel sharply and heard loud crunching sound like running over a giant water bottle. Front wheel-well liner all bunched up and broken, part of the trim...

    Poll: Official Tesla Motors Club (TMC) T-Shirt. Which version would you want?

    Would have to be offered in a semi-fitted/women's cut, and long in length (of shirt, not the sleeves). Won't buy if unisex style. Prefer soft fabric, maybe a cotton/poly blend. I like the vertical text. Remove member. Black ok, would also like lighter color, maybe very light grey.

    App shows "Temporary maintenance: Please try again later"

    Stranded. “Temporary Maintenance” says the app. Picking up carry out dinner. Chose to use my phone instead of going back in the house to get my keys. Got to restaurant but now can’t get home. Argh. 20 minutes so far so hubby is bringing my keys to me.

    Is the model 3 mobile connector water proof?

    Same thing happened to me!! Did you ever get your MC to be able to work again? Mine starts then stops after a couple minutes.

    Is the model 3 mobile connector water proof?

    Unfortunately, I think you aren't safe :{. I had my MC plugged inside my garage, but had to leave my car parked in the driveway. An unexpected rain storm came in and now the MC won't work. When I plug it into the car, it starts to charge, but then after a couple minutes, it throws an error...

    Maryland HOV Permit

    I don't know how to get you the sticker faster, but I can send you the sticker holder fast!! :}. It arrives usually within 2 days of you ordering it. www.vehiclepermitholder.com Yeah, not a very creative domain name, but that is what my engineer brain came up with to get it out there.

    Is the model 3 mobile connector water proof?

    Got an unexpected rain storm last night with the car parked in the driveway. Same thing happened - charging stopped due to adapter error. The outlet is inside the garage, dry. Only the end that plugs into the car is exposed to the rain. Seems to happen every time it rains and the car is...

    HOV Sticker / Tag Holder - secure and non-damaging

    You can remove the holder by removing the screws that hold it (and the license plate) to the car, slide the holder out of the frame, then put the license plate back on the car. I've done this many times - quick and easy. I haven't attached any rubber or felt protector tabs (like you might put...

    MD HOV Permit Holder

    Hi, I've had a thread going in the Model S forum, but being both a Model S and Model 3 owner, I want to cross-post to this forum. Out of a desire to not attach the Maryland HOV sticker to either our Model S nor our Model 3, I designed [patent pending] a metal, non-permanent, secure MD HOV...

    HOV Sticker / Tag Holder - secure and non-damaging

    @SteveT2 Hi, I just sold the last hand-made one in stock, but I have a batch from a manufacturer arriving this week, and the patent on it is complete, yay! You can pre-order one now and I'll ship it when it's ready (anticipated within the next week or so). I also just posted a website to make...

    HOV Sticker / Tag Holder - secure and non-damaging

    Thanks. If Florida ever moves to a bumper installation, let me know and I'm sure I can make it work for you!! Would love to get my hands on a copy of the CA sticker to make one to fit it.

    HOV Sticker / Tag Holder - secure and non-damaging

    Out of a desire to not attach the HOV sticker to either our Model S nor our Model 3, I designed a metal, non-permanent, secure HOV tag holder that attaches the HOV tag in the bumper area next to the license plate without any damage to the car. It attaches using the existing license plate screws...

    Anyone filed taxes for the $7500 tax credit yet?

    Thanks for the heads up on the electric vehicle charging station install deduction being extended for 2017. That is great. I don't mind waiting for TT to get the form correct, some of my investment tax forms don't arrive until mid-March anyways.

    Recommended Electricians in Howard County?

    I live in Howard County, and I just had a fantastic experience with havePOWER, LLC. Very knowledgable of Tesla requirements/HPWC/HoCo quirky electric codes, fair price, excellent communication & follow-up, very professional installation, and even a good cleanup job. They ran a 100 amp...

    Slacker radio stuttering?

    Similar problems here lately with it cutting in and out and stuck on a station loading symbol. Embarrassing to give someone a demo drive in a Model S only to have something as simple as the radio/music not work. Version 2017.42 a88c8d5

    New "Chill / Normal" acceleration modes?

    I'd vote to have a setting called "teen-driver" mode that would control/limit the power of the car, make it similar to driving an ICE, as scary as it is to say that. I'm an owner primarily for the EV part of the Telsa vs performance (but I admit I have fallen in love with the quickness when it...

    First Try at Garage Summon

    I love my car but the summons feature is a huge letdown. I've had very little success with it. It only works backing out of the garage straight. It won't enter the garage no matter how many times I try - I think it first doesn't like the closeness of the doorframe and then won't go over the...

    Extremely delayed app updates for the past 2 weeks....

    As of the morning, mine is once again working perfectly!! No more delays, yay!! I received the charging started, charging complete, and summons started/stopped right on time.

    Extremely delayed app updates for the past 2 weeks....

    Same here. For me, it seems to have started after the last software update. During a lunch meeting at work on Wednesday, I got a message that my car had been summoned. I jumped up faster than you can imagine! Is someone stealing my car? Will my car be in the middle of the parking garage...

    11 miles lost while parked for 9.5 hrs in sun...

    COP turned off and 0 lost, maybe 1 mile, in 9 hrs on a 90-ish degree day. But it was VERY hot in the car driving home and harder to get it thoroughly cooled down, as you would expect. A good test though. I do have sun shields in the front window, back window and sunroof. Turned COP back on...

    I have the "always connected" turned off. Agreed it takes a a bit to connect (less than a minute perhaps), but does connect. Just a bit of patience...

    You are right, Cabin Overheat Protection was on. I just turned it off and will test again this week. Still calling for upper 90 degree weather with 72% humidity, yay!!

    Thanks for the note on Cabin Overheat Protection. It was on. I just turned it off and will test again. Strange thing, last week I was monitoring it (and checking throughout the day on the app which I know affected it but I was just too curious not to look...) and it was up to 127% interior...

    11 miles lost while parked for 9.5 hrs in sun...

    I just lost 11 miles in 9.5 hrs of being parked?? I recently bought a 90D last month (manufactured May 2017). I have a future trip planned where I will be leaving my Tesla Model S 90D parked in an airport parking lot in the sun, in hot humid weather for 11 days. To gauge the amount of battery...
