    Charging Interrupted, Car Won't Start

    Every penny of your original purchase price. They usually do want you to get a new one, but thats always negotiable!

    Business owners in US can buy a new Model X for less than a Model 3

    Thanks. Just confused about the property tax part since we do not pay that here...

    First service

    Thanks! As I mentioned previously, my MX had a few parts missing (and I don't mean trim). Parts that made for a significant safety hazard. I wonder what it would look like if their team tried to put together anything from IKEA. Loads of parts "left over"? Like when Homer put together that...

    Business owners in US can buy a new Model X for less than a Model 3

    Seriously not worth it. They open your books and they get to see EVERYTHING...not just the part about the car. And they can go back seven years! You keeping all your receipts? Self-Employed? Avoid These Audit Red Flags on Your Tax Return Claiming 100% Business Use of a Vehicle...

    Business owners in US can buy a new Model X for less than a Model 3

    BOOM! Instant audit btw. If you actually do have a business legitimate enough to fully depreciate a $100,000+++ vehicle as your first and only business vehicle, prepare to have to open all of your books to the good folks at the IRS. Defending that audit may cost you more than you gain from...

    Picked up X100D Saturday, went to service Tuesday!

    THIS!! A THOUSAND TIMES THIS!! Do not fall for the man at the velvet rope who has your name on "the list". Do not fall for having your name on the little sign at the table when you arrive. Do not fall for the "paparazzi photographers" who follow you around. Do NOT just take the keys and...

    1 week issues

    :oops::oops::oops: Sounds like its gone from bad to worse. Sorry you missed these at delivery. Its time to escalate these issues and make it clear that if they are not fixed in a reasonable amount of time (with a completely similar loaner car), you will be initiating a buy-back claim.

    2018 Model X Build Quality

    I have owned a lot of cars from many manufacturers. Hondas during / after university years. Other Japanese brands early in my career. Most recently, it has been Porsche, BMW, and Audi (and a higher end garage queen I own for fun). These vehicles have obviously needed the normal services...

    2018 Model X Build Quality

    Why should ANYONE have to bribe the service center to get their vehicle repaired? These are vehicles that were DELIVERED as faulty. Its not like even broke down while under warranty. I have been scratching my head for a while now over this, but this post really put me over the top. I...

    Dear Trolls....Tesla's X is a refined vehicle and fit/finish matches the best

    Previous owner here. My MX was bought back for issues too numerous to list here (among them: missing parts, inoperable FWD, shudder, lost connection, and peeling paint). My eight year old could have assembled a better car than that with her friend, Barbie, assisting her. Came here to see if I...

    Model X IRS 100% Deduction “Hummer Loophole” - 2018 Edition

    I call them as I see them...nothing systematic. =p This forum doesn't let you create a screen name that has anything "Elon" in it. Sounds like lawyers were involved...

    Update 2018.12 -- So where's the Navigation Update?

    You may want to think twice about using that device. I would never buy anything from them, US Intelligence Agencies Warns Against Buying Huawei, ZTE Phones

    Our Crashed X is still not fixed...

    How could they possibly not total the car?! Who was the insurance company? Glad you're ok! How did the accident happen?

    Question from soon-to-be new owner:

    You might have a bad statistical sample here. Lots come to vent and find solutions to problems they are having. I was one of them...

    Considering an MX instead of Model 3 need advice

    Not really...and pretty much the only people who could possibly have "100%" business use are pharmacy reps going door to door. You do realize going to your office and back home doesn't count and reduces your "100%" business use, right?
