    New Tesla Showroom/Service Center/Etc.. Northbrook IL

    The Northbrook, IL planning commision had a hearing Tuesday. Included in the hearing was a proposal from Tesla to build a new showroom & service center next door to the Lifetime Fitness, at 1000 Skokie Blvd, in Northbrook. I'm assuming this is to replace the Highland Park location which is...

    MX and MS prices slashed!

    Price cuts are crazy, but keep in perspecitve. My white 21 refresh MS ordered in 4/21 and pu 9/21 was $91,290 total with FSD. Same config today after price cuts is still 22% higher at $111,630, not including the mobil charger that was standard back in 21.

    New changes to Model S

    Agreed the horn is the key. Yoke itself is ok, horn sucks trying to find it when needed. I am wondering what $700 retrofit will do about horn?

    Sirius XM stops working AGAIN

    I am now running at a 50% rate on XM radio on my refresh S. Half the time I start driving I find the XM stations gone and XM removed form the sources screen. Problem generally resolves itself the next time I start driving with no reboot. Kind of sucks to pay for the XM subscription and only...

    What happens after 3 strikes?

    Got third strike in early May after 6+ months in beta. FSD Beta button dimmed with notation, "Feature will be restored with an upcoming software release." What does this mean? Just received 12.3.20 this monring and button still dimmed after update.

    Elon: FSD Beta tweets

    Within 2 weeks? I'd say two months--only becuase the new FSD updates are seem to be taking 30-60 days now. 10.11 promised mid-March, delivered for most mid-April. 10.12 was a no show last week. i suspect most wont see before the end of the month.

    FSD Beta Experience - Be Careful What You Wish For

    I was suspended yesterday after getting a third warning. In actuality the third warning was not even using the FSD beta but rather just the standard cruise with auto steering. I had two strikes for over three months so it was just a matter of time until the third popped up. The "counter" has...

    Supercharger - Lenox, MA

    Maybe not so strange a location. More of a capacity increase for the local area (on top of Lee site at Mass Pike) given big summer vacation crowd, versus a transit type location.

    Model S Refresh - Push Center to Honk on Yoke?

    The horn problem is two faced. Instinctively you go to hit the airbag and nothing happens, and then need to look down to locate the horn button. My "Michaels" solution only fixes the second one. Generally speaking by the time you get to step two, its too late. The current horn may be ok on a...

    2021+ Model S and Model S Plaid Refresh Issues Thread

    If they don't do it on their own maybe NHTSA will require it at some point.

    Model S Refresh Airbag Horn Being Enabled

    Shouldn't it be "YK-XXXX" and not "SW-XXXX". The biggest single flaw in the car is the horn placement. They really need some kind of retrofit program for this--even if it means swapping out the yoke.

    Yoke HORN placement tips and tricks

    The horn not being accessed by hitting center of wheel (where air bag is) is the single biggest flaw in this car. Plain and simple it's dangerous. Three months in and today was almost the day after a few close calls. Came within an inch of being hit by someone who started backing quickly in...

    Process to Transfer EV Plates in Illinois

    Yes, but with carmax. Just keep your ev plates and tell Tesla to transfer. They will take care of and transfer ev plates and adjust fees to transfer fee vs new plates.

    Comed Hourly Plan for Northern IL, still worth it?

    I opted out of program 4 weeks ago. But will take two billing cycles. I note from Comed online stats average hourly payer lost 30% last month. Energy prices look to be elevated for the foreseeable future.

    The auto gear select works fine in the garage, but in a parking lot it is only correct 50% of the time. Be careful especially with perpendicular parking and a car directly in front of you. I'd say it wants to go forward half of the time. Tesla needs to get this fixed.

    Tesla Service Center-Libertyville IL

    With only 2 SC and 6 level 2, guessing it's just for their service and delivery needs. In an emergency i'm sure they let you plug in a for a few minutes but I wouldn't count on this as a charging site.
