    GPS stuck/ location not updating (Solved now)

    I literally woke up to this problem today. Anyone else still having this issue? On 2018.46.2. The mobile app shows the right location, the in car GPS does not. To be clear, in a Model 3. Not an X.

    PSA - left turn signal doesn't reset - defective steering control module

    Took delivery on Monday. VIN 91XXX. I too have this issue. Calling service center tomorrow.

    iPhone XS (Max) as a key

    Grrr. So frustrating. Not sure what to do to fix it other than what I’m doing or reinstalling the app.

    So even after 8 hours away or more you can walk up to the vehicle without ever opening the Tesla app prior, pull the handle, and walla, it lets you in immediately?

    iPhone XS (Max) as a key

    The phone as a key requires me to wake the car up from the phone before using it, at least for me. If I’m at work for 8 hours or about to head to work after a night of charging, it asks me to use the keycard. If I wake the vehicle up from the app prior, it works fine. Is this working as...

    Thanks! Happy to finally be part of the Tesla family! Saw the turn stalk issue is known on the Tesla forum. Going to report it tomorrow. Tried to call the service department this evening before close but there was a 20 minute wait. :eek: As for the phone, I guess I assumed the car wouldn’t...

    Update: So I’ve been enjoying my 3. It’s an amazing machine that has its quirks for sure. Acceleration and handling are second to none. The experience is truly other-worldly. This car is in a class of its own. Of course, I have to share some nitpicks too. My turn signal is unreliable. It...

    Ha, I didn't even check. Will do so tomorrow – my son is sick so I'm unable to drive Elektra anymore today.

    It's not a dream – she's mine! Tyco was actually slow today so I got a decent amount of time with her prior. The car was in really solid shape save for a minor scratch on the outside a-pillar which they noted. Driving this thing is other worldly. Tesla is going to take over the world and I'm...

    When I talked to her, she said cashiers but I didn’t ask about personal because I already had a cashiers check on hand from my prior cancelled delivery.

    Update! Got a call from my SC yesterday to confirm I’ll have everything when I arrive (e.g., trade-in title, registration, etc.). They said the car is, in fact, on the premises. It’s happening! Pickup scheduled for 1PM tomorrow. My last remaining FIA is that the car will have paint defects...

    Pinged my contact again today but haven't heard back. A little worried the hurricane may delay the car from getting onto the truck in Birmingham. Then again, I wouldn't want them to rush it – just don't want to deal with another appointment cancellation.

    Alright, got a call from Fremont today to move up my delivery date from the 22nd to the 15th. Car is in Birmingham and destined for Tyco Road via truck in the next few days. Rep said I could schedule for Sunday but I’d be cutting it close. Not interested risking a cancellation so I’m going with...

    Boom – nice to see more Tysons folks getting some love. Oh @desiGeek, I was driving around the mall yesterday and stumbled upon their overflow lot. If you want to take a peek it's behind Crate and Barrel on the side road that connects International with Rt 7. Shockingly, there's not many cars...

    UPDATE Got on the phone with my delivery rep today. VIN still associated with my account. Oddly, even though I confirmed everything, she needed to confirm the trade-in again. She then reviewed some personal information and submitted everything for the contract department. Apparently, I should...

    I’m terribly sorry this happened. I’m going to add this to my list of FIAs. It is now prioritized in order based on the anxiety it causes me. The VIN assigned to me will be given to someone else. “The car never really left Fremont. Oh wait, it was never actually produced yet.” “The car has a...

    I get it @wcorey, you’re just stating what you’ve been told. But I’d ask you don’t get bent out of shape when we eager to take delivery of a car we reserved years ago try to disprove this. I haven’t heard this party line. If anything, I’m sticking with the fact (until told otherwise) that my...

    This right here is by far the biggest FIA factor for me. I’m seriously worried about it and should probably stay off the forums.

    To be fair, it depends on who does the evaluation. While I agree more times than not they will not give KBB value, I was shocked to find they gave it to me on my vehicle.

    Congrats! Here’s hoping that’s true. I’ve been hesitant to bug my rep until next week. On Monday, it’ll be ~6 days from when the car is scheduled to arrive at Tyco Rd (Oct 15th). I’ll want to double check and make sure it made it to the Birmingham train checkpoint at the very least.

    To be fair, I did mine during the EOQ scramble. I bet they were all hands on deck then.

    A week is a LONG time. Mine was completed in 2-3 hours! Had no lien on the vehicle.

    So I had them update the site to include my Oct. 22 delivery and as soon as they did the VIN disappeared. I'm inquiring now, but it appears that since the delivery is 7 days out (as some have reported), the site automatically suppresses the VIN.

    Here's hoping they learned their lesson and are taking a page from Apple. That is to under promise and over deliver. I'm told my car will arrive Oct 15th by my rep in Fremont. My SC said they want to schedule me for Oct 22nd. I'm hopeful it's closer to the former and my SC wants to provide a bit...

    East Coast Waiting Room - AWD - Non-Performance

    This is terrifying. Why then assign a VIN prior to delivery? I was just assigned a VIN but told the car just left Fremont headed for the Birmingham depot. If that car gets taken out from under me, I’m going to flip my lid. What an awful way to treat customers.

    Makes sense. Rep mentioned my car was en route to Birmingham now. Here’s hoping it gets there soon considering that’s the slow and laborious part. Can’t imagine the truck takes more than a few days.
