It has only showed up on the Tesla Mobile App in the past, but I just noticed it has recently disappeared from the App?? Saw a few other notices that indicated it was gone from others as well. I just sent Tesla Insurance an email looking for an answer. They're still billing my credit card...

Crash Data Recorders (for all cars) are not designed to be "cleared". Once written, the data stays in them. Another used module will contain someone else's data. In some cases a FLASH memory programmer can be used rewrite the entire Flash chip. However, in order for it to function, it must...

I have a Model Y with a persistent annoying rattle coming from the charging pad in the front of the console. Rattles with or without the phone on it. If I place my finger on it, it stops, but haven't yet found exactly where the rattle is coming from? Anyone else experience this?

2022.4.5.3. I noticed something odd. I used cruise control and it was normal. But, when I disengaged cruise, the steering wheel icon and SET speed icons stayed ON, but dim. Then, I noticed that sometimes the dim icons would disappear completely, and then reappear for no apparent reason? If...

Interesting. Here's what they replied when I advised that only the right socket would power the wireless charger pad. I found it only worked on the right pad. Perhaps having more than 1 phone connected for data at a time confuses the Tesla as to which one to pair with?? "Due to the...

Update: After noticing that a refund wasn’t processed to my credit card, and hadn’t had any response from Jeda, I reopened my dispute. They must have contacted Jeda as I got an immediate email that they were sending a replacement. They did, and it was fine, and now finally installed and...

Tesla has remanufacturing facilities around the globe, and regularly rebuilds/repairs/renews battery packs, and various electronics.

Questions to ask.... Did anyone unfamiliar drive your car? Such as: parking lot attendant, valet parking, car wash personnel, at the dealer, did anyone need to move your car for any reason, did a family member take the car (authorized or unauthorized) without your knowledge? Was it parked...

Hmm, yeah see the Qi mention on your link. When I went looking for it on the iPhone tech specs previously, I didn't see it....only the Mag Safe...Even so, the Qi wireless chargers we have do NOT work reliably on my wife's 12 Pro Max.

Thanks for this update. This definitely sounds like the problem we see.

Did some further testing which produced erratic results. My wife has the iPhone 12 Pro Max, and I have the iPhone (10) XS Max. My phone support wireless charging on the Qi charger standard. I have only found info on the Apple.com site that indicates the iPhone 12 ProMax supports the Apple Mag...

Model Y LR DM, 20" wheel option. Rides/Drives firm, but annoyingly so on harsh pavement. I don't mind that much, but my wife complains about the ride. The ride seems comparable to my former BMW X5 with 20" wheel option.

Maybe its supposed to work, but my wife's new iPhone 12 ProMax does not charge on any of our existing Qi wireless chargers that my iPhone 10 ProMax uses, including the one in the Model Y. Apple's specs on their website for all 12 models states they only support the Mag-safe wireless protocol...

FYI, this appears to be a 2 person company after researching it on LinkedIn, the FCC ID website data, and the Stripe Credit Card service that processed my credit card. They do not mention a phone number in any of their marketing materials or in their FCC ID filing. The Stripe link gave a phone...

I ordered the Model Y hub on July 1. I received it about a week ago. Upon looking at it closely, it is unusable as the USB C sockets are misaligned with the case preventing the connector to be used. I tried contacting them by phone (disconnected) and email (no reply). I have filed a dispute...

The new Apple Mag Safe charger on iPhone 12 devices is NOT compatible with the former Qi wireless charging specification. They must be plugged in, or install a MagSafe compatible charger device. I have not seen a Tesla specific MagSafe charger accessory offered by anyone as yet.

I just used my standard ball mount I've used previously on a Suburban, Tahoe, BMW X5, Ford Escape, and now the Y. It is tucked close to the bumper, but works just fine.

App still not working, and can't log into the website either....I'm located in Aptos, south of Santa Cruz

Yes, they recommend you secure the phone with a holder. I use a RAM Mount that's quite flexible in mounting locations. It worked Plug n Play with my Carson trailer brakes. Sorry don't have a photo of it in use. Will try to remember to take one next time. I also posted this elsewhere on the...

Oh yes, and I have the 20" wheels/tires.

FYI, I have a LR Dual Motor Model Y. I also have a 20 ft. dual axle Carson racecar trailer. The trailer is listed by the mfgr. as approximately 2500 lbs. I have towed it twice now with the MY without drama. The Tesla has ample torque. I towed over the local Santa Cruz mountains (1,800 ft.)...

Kept it at 55 max, so dismal efficiency. And, being 700 lbs lighter didn’t help on the return trip, so the drag was a big contributor.

I bought a Curt Echo brake controller that required no installation whatsoever. It was plug and play on my Model Y and uses the accelerometer in your smartphone and the touchscreen to manually activate the brakes. The unit plugs between your 7 pin socket and trailer cable. There is a pairing...

Return trip was identical consumption even with 700 lbs less load.

I just towed for the first time with my Model Y. Here's my experience with it. I have a 20 ft. enclosed Carson race car trailer, which weighs around 2,500 lbs empty. I was hauling about 700 lbs of engine parts and other items that stay in the trailer. The trip was about 58 miles from Aptos...

Nice. I have a Model Y on order, hope it is comparable. FYI, I have raced there many times in the Russell series and vintage, and also do driver instruction for various clubs. My lap times are around 1:54 in my 1965 Lotus Cortina Mk1, running on DOT tires, so your times are quite respectable...

Have my order in for a Model Y LR.

A: I have not investigated nor studied the role of electric v. mechanical braking in a Tesla, but there could be related technical issues there as to how much braking is available from the pedal, and how quickly. Logged parameters such as whether or not the pedal is applied (brake switch...

FYI, investigating such matters is what I do. I have investigated more than 2 dozen Toyota SUA cases, as well as multiple various others, including two Tesla's. I know of at least two dozen specific different causes for SUA that has been proven, including software/firmware faults. And, these...

I'm a Forensic Investigator for Auto Electronics related matters. I have the Tesla download equipment and am a licensed Tesla crash data retrieval software user. I've investigated two other Model S cases where they allegedly experienced SUA similar to yours. In both those cases the crash data...

Sorry for your experience. Hope they catch and arrest the scumbags. You might consider replacing both of the small windows with Lexan instead of glass and use a mylar tint to match. Can't be broken with a center punch.

When charging at home, did you notice if your charging adapter was flashing the LED with any codes (1 - 5 blinks, red or green)?
