I had experienced an issue at a supercharger and used the website’s support form to let them know. I received this response back. Apparently the Superchargers will automatically notify Tesla of an issue or fault. Did anyone else know this? I’ve reporting charging issues by emailing them for a...

I am not talking about either of the new lane assist features that steer your back in your lane if you exit it. I am referring to when another driver comes into your lane, and the car takes evasive action. It was never explicitly called Side Collision Avoidance, but the manual used to vaguely...

In your day to day, typical commuting traffic, what’s your follow distance set to? Traffic between work to home for me is always aggressive so mine is usually set to 1. But when I’m cruising on a trip, it’s usually on 2-4.

Hey all, I wanted to share some experience I had after connecting my Slacker account to my Model 3 - I have one massive playlist with 835 songs on it (and four other playlists with a couple hundred each). I first noticed there were issues with loading it entirely, as it would only cycle through...

Does anyone know how to access the third brake light, if so, is it easy, or is there a video online somewhere? I noticed yesterday what looked like a small caterpillar surrounded in webbing literally in my brake light housing. This morning, the guy was chilling inside the car and on the back...

Next month, you will be able to snag Autosteer and Traffic Aware Cruise Control for $2,000. The rest of autopilot can be gotten for an additional $3,000. I’ve seen many posts but nothing about this specifically, so hopefully it helps someone. I am personally thrilled as all I really want are...

Hello all - at the end of March, I'm going cross country from Charlotte, NC to Las Vegas for a few days, and then continuing on to Los Angeles, before heading back straight to Charlotte a few days later. I have road tripped in this car before (NC to DC several times, and to Florida twice) so...

I really enjoy driving my Model 3. Some weekends I’ll drive 100 miles just for fun. But I could use some extra cash (who doesn’t?). So I thought, why not make some money while doing something I enjoy? I highly recommend UberEATS to anyone in that situation. The 3 (or any Tesla really) is a...

A family member this weekend failed to properly close the trunk before a big rainstorm. All of the water drained into the bottom of the trunk (the extra cargo space between the wheels accessed by removing the lid cover). I have tried drying it out with a towel and using a shop vac to get up...

I pulled up to the Savannah, GA Supercharger to a line of 3 cars ahead of me. 1 of 6 stalls were down, the rest taken. 30 minutes I get into a stall, and my charge rate maxed out at 17 kWh. I called Tesla and they said they were aware of outages at that location and wouldn’t have someone out...

Did anyone else who supercharged yesterday get it free? I charged three times and my balance after the fact dropped to 0.00 for all three. Pretty cool. I’m thankful for Tesla and the acts of kindness like that they do (assuming it was intentional!)

Has anyone seen this or experienced this? The black interior seal is peeling towards the corners on 3 out of my 4 doors. I just noticed them all today after picking my car up from service a few days ago so I’m not sure if it’s something they did or they just all happened to have happened at...

Hey all, I was wondering if anyone’s back chrome pieces (surrounding the triangle-shaped rear door windows) are like mine, or if anyone knows the cause? Bad parts? The chrome pieces are not as shiny as the rest of the chrome on the car, looks very clouded, and has a somewhat rainbow reflection...

Can someone with V9 confirm that the placement of the directions list and buttons cannot be swapped back to where they are in previous versions (there’s no user configurable setting within the Maps app?) It looks like the list of directions are now on the left side and the orientation/zoom...

If I decelerate significantly, but not enough for the brake lights to come on, I get paranoid that the driver behind me is not going to realize I’m slowing down and smash right into me. Especially in bumper to bumper traffic. I sometimes set regen to low during these times, so that I have more...

...and it wasn't a Tesla. Where are the news reports?! ;)

When I owned a Mazda 3, I drove with the fog lights on when the lights were always on because I thought it made the car look cooler. Getting my Model 3, the fog light setting was already on and I've left it that way - every time the lights come on the fog lights will come on too. But now I'm...

All of a sudden, my horn stopped sounding like the usual blaring loud horn, and started sounding like a wimpy high pitched horn. My theory is that there are two horns, a high and low tone horn, and the low tone is no longer working. I’ll try scheduling time with the service center next week...

Hello all, I was curious as to whether this was normal behavior or what may be causing this. I am on the EAP trial and have had a few phantom braking issues, but most notably, I was driving along a 65 mph stretch of highway with no cars in front of me. TACC was on but Autosteer was off. My...

Hello everyone! I just picked up my Model 3 from a used car dealership last week and I am absolutely in love! I believe it's a February 2018 build and really haven't had any notable issue other than water getting trapped somewhere in the driver side rear door. Any time it rains (or I get a car...
