    Model 3 - drive in rainy condition

    O called Service Center and all that the person was saying "I apologize sir blah blah blah) and then I expressed my concerns and asked for a escalation. The person on phone then put me on to the Support Service queue (I believe they are one level above the Service Center), and when I started...

    Model 3 - drive in rainy condition

    That is kinda odd. Is there a HW diff between the 2017 and 2018 for the same train (the M3 train). Was this confirmed by Tesla? If so what is the diff between the twoREV and how would one know ?

    Model 3 - drive in rainy condition

    Hi I see my M3 is running 2017.5012. 707518. Per the support folks I believe not every Tesla Model 3 will get a update not can one force a update. He said that Tesla releases the updates in batches and we may have to wait. That is not a good strategy if their QE/QC is robust. The confidence...

    Model 3 - drive in rainy condition

    The drive was good, but since 280 was clogged I could not go beyond 35-40. Yes I heard a bit of the rain drop noise (because of the glass all over) but in general the road noise l is a bit high compared to my BMW

    Model 3 - drive in rainy condition

    yes absolutely, I wouldn't do that when charging. I am expecting that the drain points does its job and avoid any kind of flood. It is in a angle and I am sure it should drain well but time will tell. In a a normal car the tank is plugged and water wont enter, but here there is no plug, and...

    Manufacturing Issues on my Model 3

    Thanks. Looks like you are taking this as an assault on Tesla. What is wrong in saying what I see? So what are you trying to tell, accept and live and do not complain? Seems like there is no scope for improvement in this channel!!!

    Hi All Got my M3 delivery beginning of Feb. The following is what I am seeing - too many scratches all over the body - the top glass above the head is not aligned with the front and back windshield. SC tech says these are laid by hand and there can be difference between vehicles. Is it true? I...
