Now that Kirkwood is online, I doubt I will ever stop at the Binghamton location. I did look at its status on our way to Kirkwood and I think it was showing two or three stalls available, which was the same number reported for Kirkwood. There are multiple problems with Binghamton: old v2...

Forgot to mention that we visited this location a second time on 11/26 (around 5 PM) and it was a very different situation: we got the next to last spot, and within minutes every stall was taken and a line had formed. By the time we left, two (or three?) cars were queued up waiting for a chance...

I guess I was one of the lucky few that got the FSD beta on MCU1 early this year, but I lost it after taking the car to a Service Center to have the eMMC recall work done. I was super annoyed when I picked up the car and learned they had upgraded the firmware to a version without FSD. That FSD...

We stopped in yesterday at 13h51 and there were only two other Teslas plugged in. While the location is not great and somewhat desolate, it is (imo) a huge improvement over the Binghamton Front St location. The Schneider's Market is a humble, rural small market, and there is also an ice cream...

We had it for 2.5 months (from late January to early April) and it was great (definitely not a finished product, and a bit jerky in some situations) but we lost the feature after we took the car for some service and the SC applied an upgrade to 2022.8.10.11. It's super frustrating that they...

Same situation here! Safety score disappeared sometime on or after Friday (haven’t driven or used the app since I parked on Friday) and I’m trying to decide if I should assume that an FSDb push is imminent, or if some sort of glitch is afoot. Obviously, hoping for the former.

Has anyone had success procuring this part (the right front door latch actuator) from a Service Center? I see used ones sold on eBay for above retail price, which leads me to believe they are likely hard to source from local SC parts departments. Other have mentioned they are often back...

So frustrating to try and use this location with its limited hours and other issues! I was just there, running a little low and was hoping to supercharge while shopping at the Whole Foods a block away. But, the ticket machine to enter was in the fritz and unable to dispense tickets, so no one...

The Walmart issue was not related to Powerwalls but rather the solar panels themselves.

Anyone have any idea why this location caps charging to 80% at all times? I have visited the chargers three times over the past two weeks and each time I was the only one there but each charging session starts with a message on the app and the dashboard display that reads “High Usage...

Reviving this old thread to ask if anyone has an update on the future location of this Supercharger, and its current construction update. The Tesla site is still only saying Coming Soon and expected by 2019.

Decided to give this place a second chance to validate, or refute, the previous experience. Alas, it was all the same: the charging rate was maddeningly slow (topping out somewhere between 80 and 90 kW) and it took a full hour to get 172 miles (arrived with 38 and left with 210.) So, the overall...

Drove here today (3/26/2019) to check it out and to compare it with the urban chargers in the Jersey City Newport Centre mall. First off: super easy in/out access. Much better than dealing with the mall maniacs that drive somewhat recklessly looking for spots. Every time I go to Newport (which...

Turns out there is another thread discussing the same problem. Link: https://teslamotorsclub.com/tmc/threads/jersey-city-supercharger-effectively-down-other-viable-option.116828/ This location being down can be problematic for people who may show up running very low and expecting to...

Yup.... a real problem, to be honest. I have been posting about it since I first experienced it almost two weeks ago. It really sucks, as Tesla Support has no information on an ETA and, given the history of PSE&G, I doubt we will see this resolved any time soon. As allen565 indicates, this...

Total BS story you got fed... For example: Tesla Solar Battery Storage for Long Island NYC Homes | EmPower Solar Search Google for other companies doing PW installations in NYC. Or, contact the NYC store for direct information and (perhaps) a referral to a contractor.

The charge rate is definitely WAY below their normal, regular 72 kW. It is not an issue with a stall or two. All of them are affected. Personally, I only tested three stalls (out of twenty) but a call to Tesla confirmed they are having load problems at the location and they do NOT have an ETA...

Unfortunately the location is still experiencing problems with energy loads. Definitely plan ahead and don't show up expecting to be able to supercharge here. With the car completely turned off, I was only able to gain about 40 miles over a 2hr period. A true shame, since this location is a...

BTW, tried to supercharge last week, and only got about 40 miles over a 2hr period. I called Tesla to confirm there was an issue with the stations and not my X and they confirmed they had gotten reports of load problems a week or two before, and that they do not have an ETA on when this problem...

Not at all surprised. It will only get worse during the very busy holiday shopping season.

$1,300 per month!? That's almost impossible to believe. Do you have a lot of tickets or past accidents? Even $333 / month from Geico sounds high, and I had a "high" quote from them that was about $250.

100% agreed. I live next door to The Oakman and I don't plan on ever using those chargers. :o The driveway to get in is tight, the parking is stacked and super tight. And, you have to pay a lot of money. As you correctly point out, the drive from 1st St to the mall superchargers is exactly...

Wow! 40 to 210 in just under an hour is really great. Super excited for these chargers.

It will likely not be a problem for now, but could get interesting around big shopping days, like the christmas holiday season. At the Garden State Plaza, one of the biggest issues plaguing the Tesla showroom is Tesla owners using the parking area where they keep their demo cars to get a...

GREAT NEWS!! Now, let's hope the mall parking staff will enforce the proper use of these spots.

This will be me, sadly. I have a been a loyal GEICO customer for 19+ years, and have always been happy with their quotes and rates, up until two years ago, when they started to creep up. Now that I am waiting for my X, their quote for insurance was outrageous on a per monthly basis, so I will...

The electricity costs may be one third, but if a person is forced to pay for parking, then those savings evaporate. That's always going to be an issue in this region, where city space is always at a premium and seldom (if ever) free. I'm definitely excited about the Newport chargers, as the...

Interesting... They have been teasing a Tesla charger at that lot since they opened. And, even more interesting, I do remember seeing something else at that spot before this particular charger. I do wonder if perhaps they had installed a different one earlier, and then switched charger models...

This observation is based on *limited* information. The Newport build out started a few months ago (September 2017?) while the Tesla chargers at The Oakman parking lot have been "in progress" for several years. The building opened up 1.5 years ago, and the Tesla charger has been in that lot...

I also stopped in yesterday to check out the chargers, but I only saw three (the same three photographed by JSergeant) and noticed that each one has a single hose, so now I am wondering if indeed it is six chargers, or what the deal may be. The pictures posted by JSergeant do a good job of...

Weird naming in that the mall is actually closer to the Waterfront than The Oakman. But, I guess that makes some sense.

As I mentioned before, I live right next to this building and, therefore, the parking lot in question. Personally, I would never go charge at this lot. I am not handing over my keys to those guys to move my car around as needed, particularly since most of the cars are driven onto gravel...

I never claimed they had installed a SuperCharger in the parking lot at The Oakman. You should go back and re-read the last few messages. I am specifically saying that the claim that there are now SuperChargers on 1st St is incorrect. There is a SINGLE charger inside the parking lot at The...

There is no SuperCharger at the parking lot. As seen from the outside, there is ONE charger, and it is not a super charger. Just yesterday, they added a sign to the inside wall of the driveway into the lot to indicate they have a Tesla charger. Previous to this sign, the charger still had...

No, the original chargers along 1st St have been in place for several years now. They are the same as always. They are directly in front of my building, and I walk past them several times every day. Definitely not changes there. Like I said, they are owned/managed by GreenSpot. Site posted...

I live next to The Oakman, at the sister property. The Oakman is a condo building, while The ArtHouse is a rental building. The chargers out on the street are NOT Tesla SuperChargers. Those are owned/operated by a private company: Greenspot. Here is their website: About – Greenspot EV...

Sorry, but some of those points are simply opinions held in a vacuum without taking into consideration the realities on the ground: - Newport can't provide free parking because it would otherwise get filled up with commuters driving there to catch the PATH into the city. That is precisely the...

I should also add that this is a problem all over the US. That is, local utilities dragging their feet as people start to migrate to other solutions. My friend who lives in FL (in the Orlando area) has been waiting over two months for the local power company to come around to approve his new...

Just catching up with this thread after being away a few days. A (potential/possible) reason why PSE&G would drag their feet in "lighting up" new Tesla locations is simple: if PSE&G is set on building out their own competing product (even if it is free at the moment) they then have an incentive...

I have no doubt you are right (that this is on PSE&G) but my point remains: this should not be at all a surprise. As NJ's largest utility company, it embodies everything that is wrong with our state's politics and ingrained corruption problem. Of course they are dragging their feet, because...

No one should be at all surprised this is behind schedule and still pending. After all, this is Jersey City, and NJ. In all my years living here in JC, I have *never* seen any project that involves government approval completed on time. In between the infamous Buildings Department in JC, and...

ICE = Internal Combustion Engine Its use in the OP is incorrect in that the term is normally used to refer to ICE vehicles that brazenly park on EV parking spots, thereby blocking us from being able to plug in and charge our cars.

A hearty upvote for my OA, Johann Espinola, working out of the Garden State Plaza showroom in Paramus, NJ. Very friendly and knowledgeable guy, who is super enthusiastic about his job, and the Tesla brand and vision. He has shown what feels like heartfelt, honest interest in matching customers...

The Guest Services desk is right in the middle of the mall, on the ground floor, over by the elevator and escalators that lead to the second and third level. You can't miss it, really. Just bring your parking ticket and driver's license. It takes a few seconds to get the ticket validated...

Not at all surprised to see a "construction" project delayed in this area, particularly in JC. In any case, I am two blocks away, and my X is being delivered in March, so this is welcome news. About having to pay for parking to access these chargers, if you are a Jersey City resident, you can...
