    Getting tailgated by old, beat up cars CONSTANTLY!!!!

    +1, this fixed my problem. Because of regen people (tesla slows down faster than their car) were tailgating me until I installed it. Now worst case scenario they hit their bumper and I don't get any damage

    Very disappointing first week with Model X

    First delivery failed because of too many defects, second delivery was not great either but I figured I should take the car to secure the interest rate. 12 hours later and 7 miles and the car was back at the service center wednesday around lunch. They still have no idea what causes the "service...

    Getting deposit refund for missed delivery?

    I was offered to cancel multiple times when I had issues with my Model X delivery with full refund. Knowing what I know now maybe I should have... With all of the delivery issues it does not seem like they really care all that much anyway

    Model X Delivery Checklist

    They tried fixing a few issues but not all of them were fixed. We took delivery tuesday night but the car was back at the center wednesday (broke after 5 miles)... "service needed: steering assist reduced". The center have not had a chance to look at it yet and they did not have any tesla loaner...

    Model X Delivery Checklist

    Unfortunately no, they say they don't have any loaners (except for enterprise but I could end up with a subcompact) and they won't give me an ETA how long it will take to fix. I have escalated but have not heard any news... They were pushing me to accept the car as-is saying it would drive fine...

    Model X Delivery Checklist

    You need to look for it since the roof might be difficult to see since it is high but it was obvious something was wrong The front window seal was obvious. Been told there was at least one more car with the fwd defect. The director was telling me it was within spec and normal since another car...

    Model X Delivery Checklist

    Had to refuse delivery yesterday. A few minor issues in the finish. I had to refuse delivery because the front door driver side rubber seal and FWD rubber seals were not installed correctly. I was afraid rain would get in had I taken delivery. Parts were ordered but they have no idea when they...

    Drive unit fluid replacement not part of annual service anymore?

    Yeah, I was told the same. I'd rather keep wipers spare, need to change winter/summer tires anyway and change out the air filters as needed myself but they told me it was all or nothing. Can't pay them labor (by the hour) and cost either.

    Drive unit fluid replacement not part of annual service anymore?

    Yes this is what I am thinking. The only reason you would need to pay for the service plan would be if you want the extended warranty since it is only valid if you do all the maintenances by Tesla...

    Drive unit fluid replacement not part of annual service anymore?

    Tesla updated their webpage and removed the line where it said drive unit fluid replacement. The local tesla sales rep says they don't need them anymore, it was useless and it took too much time. Do you know if that is really the case...

    Tesla Model X factory tint in canada?

    I've been told that the Model X already has its rear and 2nd row window tinted from the factory in the US. Do you know if this is also the case in Canada or if the tint is the same on all windows in Canada? Thank you!

    Considering hitch mounted extra bumper and brake light

    It looks better than I thought

    Considering hitch mounted extra bumper and brake light

    I had not seen the article but I worked at an airport and we would joke that there were so many LCD monitors that people would better notice a handwritten note on a sheet of paper so I am not surprised. This is why I feel like reflective tape might attract the attention more than brake lights...

    Considering hitch mounted extra bumper and brake light

    This is what I ordered. It looks very well built but I have not received my Model X yet so can't test it for now. I'll probably add 3M Scotchcal Reflective on it so it is more visible in the dark

    MX owner manual ground clearance with/without skis?

    This is what I thought at first but the manual mentions that the ground clearance is 7 inch both with and without skis when suspension is set to standard but when suspension is set to high the ground clearance is different. I had imagined that the hitch/ski carrier would raise by the same amount...

    MX owner manual ground clearance with/without skis?

    I was reading the Model X owners manual (https://www.tesla.com/sites/default/files/model_x_owners_manual_north_america_en.pdf page 176) and was trying to understand what they meant by ground clearance with skis and without skis? What part are they talking about when they say skis? thank you

    MCU2 - Retrofit

    I'm surprised there are no MCU upgrades available. Elon Musk seemed to imply that you could upgrade the infotainment in a twitter back in january: Elon Musk on Twitter

    Model S/X deliveries with Intel-based MCU

    Upgrading an AP1 to the new MCU is a game changer. Tesla would be the only car manufacturer that would allow upgrading the MCU.

    Your MCU on an AP2.5?

    Model S/X deliveries with Intel-based MCU

    Well something being faster is an upgrade ;-). Why would they replace something if it is not better or faster? Is an MCU that is faster a feature or an upgrade? ;-)

    Model S/X deliveries with Intel-based MCU

    Correct, I meant the maintenanace plan talks about hardware upgrades but I'm not sure exactly what "hardware upgrades" they actually make except for a mandatory recall

    Model S/X deliveries with Intel-based MCU

    They did not provide a free upgrade to LTE if I remember correctly?

    Model S/X deliveries with Intel-based MCU

    Which is also about the same time they pushed back all deliveries worldwide to June

    Model S/X deliveries with Intel-based MCU

    Would it be safe to assume that they would have changed both Model S and Model X at the same time?
