    Safety Score

    So if I were to guess, it seems like they took a list Friday evening of folks who had an overall score of 100 at the time. My score dropped to 97 over the weekend but I got the email just now. Car is installing 2021.32.25 as we speak.

    Orbital Wheel Covers

    Got my car detailed today. The orbitals definitely look better with a bit of tire shine. I also got some Tesla logo center caps from Amazon, which look pretty good I think.

    Issues with firmware 2018.24.8

    I'm on 24.8 and don't remember having these issues. I'll have to double check when I leave work this afternoon, but I'm pretty sure my window was automatically rolling down with a single press. Not sure about the steering wheel issue...do you have easy entry enabled? Not something I use, so...

    Odd chirpy, squeaky sound when reversing

    So following the "burnishing" advice from this old Model X thread: Model X: Brakes when Reversing I've apparently minimized the squealing while reversing. I still hear a bit of noise when braking so I'm probably going to continue using the car on low regen for a few days to see what happens.

    Odd chirpy, squeaky sound when reversing

    Funny you mention summon, I actually did try that and I was having difficulty pinpointing it exactly, but it sounded like it was coming from the rear-left. Going to try it again in the morning.

    Odd chirpy, squeaky sound when reversing

    I'll have to try that. I mostly drive highway, so I certainly haven't been utilizing the brake harshly at all. The noise is not bothering me as I haven't noticed it with the windows up at all. I'll wait to see what Tesla Service finds, hopefully it's simple as gravel.

    Odd chirpy, squeaky sound when reversing

    First, I already have a service appointment scheduled for next Friday on an unrelated issue...I will be asking about this when I take the car in. I got my Model 3 this past Saturday and I already have 600 miles on it (I drive nearly 90 miles a day for work M-F). I was looking through my garage...

    Is the M3 steering wheel small?

    I'm actually loving the smaller steering wheel. It also feels nice in the hand. Then again, I'm coming from a Civic sooo...

    Picking up tomorrow, Tesla said I have a 15 minute window to pickup, BS

    My ISA indicated that my delivery appointment would typically take 5 to 10 minutes. He included the links to the owners manual and training videos for review, which was recommended in order to speed up delivery. It ended up taking more like 15 minutes with paperwork, inspection, and an extremely...

    White Paint Bumper mismatch

    I finally took delivery this past Saturday. Bumper looks great...don't really notice anything wrong (both indoors or in the sun light). Glad I picked pearl white...it's certainly a beautiful car!

    Orlando Delivery 6/17/18

    Evidently you can place the transponder to the right of the rear-view mirror: Model 3 windshield with Toll Pass

    Orlando Delivery 6/17/18

    Unfortunately not, they gave me a Cadillac (via onsite Hertz reps). I can't complain though,they reimburse gas and provide a toll transponder.

    Orlando Delivery 6/17/18

    They found it on their own inspection and delayed my delivery. Gave me two choices...wait for a new VIN or wait for the body shop. I decided to wait for the body shop because they originally thought it would be quicker but it's been delay after delay each week. I almost regret not waiting for a...

    Orlando Delivery 6/17/18

    Congratulations! I'm also in Orlando and have a 174xx VIN pearl white that I'm awaiting delivery on. I was supposed to have it 3 weeks ago but it's been delayed because its still in the body shop for a rear bumper paint mismatch. I'm guessing the paint looks good on yours?

    White Paint Bumper mismatch

    An update on my situation...looks like the body shop moved up the repaint and the car should be ready by next Wednesday. I'm not going to be holding my breath but I'm going to give this VIN a second chance. So new delivery date for June 6th...hopefully the repaint is good and there aren't any...

    VIN Assignment

    Has anyone been through a rematch for a VIN? Since I had to cancel delivery on my first assigned VIN because of a paint defect that'll take 4-5 weeks in the shop (they're backed up), the ISA submitted a "hard rematch request" for a new VIN. Apparently it triggers a search for an existing VIN...

    White Paint Bumper mismatch

    I was kind of afraid that'll happen even with the repaint. Might as well as ask for a new VIN if they can't get it right.

    White Paint Bumper mismatch

    Looks like the body shop is going to take 3 to 5 weeks since they're so backed up. I'm not liking the reputation of the shops they're using around here, so I may just go with rematching to a new VIN. So frustrating but I'm so close to the finish line. I just hope whatever VIN I get next...

    VIN Assignment

    Definitely higher than 2.5%. They actually gave me 3 rates based off of 3 terms: 3.39% 72 month, 3.34% 60 month, and 3.24% 48 month. You confirm via email which rate and term you'd like to lock in. Also, don't apply for a loan until your ISA has reached out to you and indicates roughly when your...

    VIN Assignment

    In my case (applying to Tesla Lending), the loan application didn't activate until I was assigned a VIN. At that point I applied and indicated on the application how much I wanted to put down (in percentage form). A few hours later I got an approval email from a credit analyst with an estimate...

    VIN Assignment

    It wasn't even the ISA, it was my adviser from my local delivery center. I sent him the the VIN that was displaying in the shop checkout page and he confirmed that VIN was still assigned to me.

    VIN Assignment

    Confirmed with my delivery adviser via email that the VIN is still assigned to me even though it's still not on my Tesla account page.

    Wake up with VIN disappeared Room

    The VIN drop down in shop appears to only work when adding the wall connector (for me anyways) and viewing the checkout page. Yep, I still see my VIN there despite it being gone from MyTesla. EDIT: Just realized this was the Canadian forum...haha. At any rate, appears more and more to be a...

    VIN Assignment

    Not exactly. I had a delivery date, today as a matter of fact, but it was canceled because the car didn't pass local inspection this past Wednesday due to a paint mismatch issue. My delivery date was removed from my account as a result. They were sending it out to the body shop for repair and...

    VIN Assignment

    Hmm, kind of gives me hope that this is just some website glitch then if others are seeing an issue within the same time span. My VIN disappeared this morning...it was definitely there last night.

    White Paint Bumper mismatch

    Well this just took a turn. The VIN was removed from my account. Not sure what that means but I didn't ask for a new vehicle. Kind of freaking out at the moment. Waiting to hear back from the DS. I hope I'm not stuck again in a queue waiting for a new VIN.

    White Paint Bumper mismatch

    He reached out to me regarding the issue and cancelled my delivery. I didn't ask for cancellation btw, he did that automatically since it didn't pass their inspection because of the mismatch.

    White Paint Bumper mismatch

    Unfortunately they were going to send it to the body shop today, so wouldn't have time to look at it. Depending how long it takes to repaint and how busy the shop is, I may ask for a new color configuration (red was my alternate choice). No guarantee this issue won't crop up again with another...

    White Paint Bumper mismatch

    Looks like delivery of my pearl white is being delayed from this Friday because of this bumper paint mismatch issue (VIN 17XX). Apparently this was the only cosmetic issue they found after their inspection. The fact that they spotted this gives me confidence in their inspection (or it was just...
