    New Model 3 - already died

    Ok. Final update. Disclaimer is I’m not very tech savvy so I’m relying this in layman‘s terms as explained to me by the tech. Disclaimer is I’m not very tech savvy so I’m relaying this in layman‘s terms as explained to me by the Tesla tech. There is evidently a group of five blots that...

    New Model 3 - already died

    I took delivery second week of July- The reported gap’s in Vin numbers also doesn’t help narrow it down so that’s all I can tell you. It does seem to be the first instance of this that I can find though. To be fair is a bit concerning, because I’m wondering if I will have one of the other...

    New Model 3 - already died

    I’m pretty sure it’s the pack. The tech told me they had the entire backseat out of the car dealing with it. However, in a few hours I will have a more complete answer from them. I will be sure to give a final update. As for the loaner, refer to the original post. Enterprise had nothing...

    New Model 3 - already died

    That’s good to hear-and in fact the car has been brilliant up until I just started on the trip today. I like driving it better than my 328M and for sure more than my wife’s X3. I’m sure they will get it fixed and sorted it out, but that doesn’t change the fact that for whatever reason it’s...

    New Model 3 - already died

    No. I had to have someone take me back home - again, a good thing this happened at the very start of my trip-and get my X.3. So I’m taking my first big tesla road trip in my BMW.

    New Model 3 - already died

    New owner first post. I just got my model three a couple of weeks ago and it is an absolutely amazing car. A few minor problems with it at delivery-passenger front window did not go down all the way, small tear at bottom of steering wheel where stitching comes together-but nothing significant...
