    Glass on roof fracturing in summer - no impact

    I share your pain, Tesla won’t honor anyone’s diagnosis other than Tesla (based on phone conversation with service), so you’re at their mercy. I might just setup a camera pointed right at my windshield so I have direct proof when the crack happens again...

    Repeated Stress Fracture on Front Windshield and Next Steps

    Agreed, I’m still trying to get closure on this. Even my before and after video showing paint showing up on my car is not Tesla’s fault according to the service manager, “this could not have occurred in our shop” and “the agreement you signed states we are not responsible” was pretty much what...

    Repeated Stress Fracture on Front Windshield and Next Steps

    Update on the situation. I received an email and message on the Tesla app to pay the bill in full before I could pick up my vehicle. I could not even talk with a person on the phone, only communication available is over Tesla app. They also stated my service was completed the day I dropped...

    Repeated Stress Fracture on Front Windshield and Next Steps

    Good question, compare the Dec 6th 2019 picture to the Mar 31st 2021 picture, they are close - photos attached. Interestingly, both times a crack formed while parked at my house and when there was an increase in temperature over the previous day(s). Dec 6th 2019 - warmest day of the month Mar...

    Repeated Stress Fracture on Front Windshield and Next Steps

    The glass is smooth on the top (acknowledged by Tesla) and was on the side when I noticed the crack. The crack occurred while parked on a sunny day. Even though Tesla claimed they would cover this on the phone, they just sent me the bill to pay, almost $1000. Attached is the December 2019...

    Repeated Stress Fracture on Front Windshield and Next Steps

    Long story short, very early stealth performance model 3 with numerous issues (15 items fixed by Tesla), trying to get some advice on my latest issue with the front windshield. Front windshield was replaced by Tesla due to stress fracture in December 2019. Almost in the same spot, stress...

    SB 6586 - Do NOT let this happen!

    Almost seems that way, you could get a Cruze diesel and pay as little as $142 in tax per year (15k/52mpg x 0.494 gas tax)

    SB 6586 - Do NOT let this happen!

    The argument that EV owners can afford it is not a fair one, some buy for the increased longevity. I offset my electric costs in Seattle by installing a solar system, I’m sure others here have done this as well. I plan to contact my solar installer, some lobby for causes like this and this...

    Water settling in door after rain

    I had water build up that dumped out on 3 of the 4 doors. My seals were falling off anyway so I had Tesla mobile fix them all. They were barely sealed with just a tiny square of 3M tape spaced very far apart, over 12 inches. So check the door seals, if you see gaps forming take pictures and...

    4 months since delivery, still waiting on seat...

    Welcome to the club, going on 6 months with P3- that needed repairs since purchase. Emails and escalation both have failed, now I’ve used the mobile app to schedule a repair time and I’ll keep repeating the process until rectified.

    Confirm Performance Stealth (non-PUP) $5,000 refund

    I’m on my 3rd email for mobile service, not counting two in person visits with promises to be contacted since July. Second email for my $5K refund for FUSC exchange. Not one response for anything, other than one email stating I would be contacted on 11/2/18. The sad part is they have...

    Anyone have issues with Tesla Customer Service despite the "friendliness" ?

    Your title is on point, I’ve been promised mobile service twice and one VM saying the same. I asked for help yet again a couple days ago. These were issues that existed when I received my PM3 in July.

    Performance Upgrade Price Change!

    Agreed, I think we should collect some data, like a list of users here and/or vote, maybe send over to Teslanomics who can reach a wider audience. I was considering writing to Tesla after collecting a vote to include: VOTE should performance 3 non-performance upgrade package get a refund A...

    Performance Upgrade Price Change!

    I picked up my P- 7/24 and was charged for SC even after Elon’s tweet about free charging. Contacted Tesla via email, never was refunded but now I get free supercharging (although it is a significant inconvenience or too crowded). This has been the story from the start, promised twice for...

    So much analysis on this forum, I want to hear your before purchase M3P +/- formula, then your truck predictions, let’s review the winners and have them start a hedge fund for us.

    Performance Upgrade Price Change!

    I think the assumption that PUP was the answer to insure future performance was unclear, Elon stated in mid July that a staggered setup with sticky tires would result in quicker performance (albeit in relation to acceleration). As of late Randy Pobst worked with Tesla engineers using wider...

    Performance Upgrade Price Change!

    I feel the sentiment of the early PM3- buyers, I thought I was making a sound decision for an occasional fun track car based on all the information I could obtain. The Tesla PUP sounded like a cosmetic bling package compared to what MPP was working on in July. After having the car for a couple...

    Performance Upgrade Price Change!

    I received my P3D- on July 24th, was charged for supercharging even after the announcement, so I emailed Tesla, soon after my supercharging was free even though my account still says Pay Per Use.

    Performance Upgrade Price Change!

    Maybe not now, but you could lose out on resale when most will want track enabled or PUP or ask you to drop your price due to the aforementioned.

    Performance Upgrade Price Change!

    I think you should start a new thread to garner more attention, then send an email to Tesla linking back to here or collaborate on a message we could send them. Example: Vote on Performance M3 Non-PUP Refund In exchange for my free supercharging: A. $5K refund B. Free hardware PUP hardware...

    What's the latest on the $5k refund for Performance version buyers?

    Ditto on this, I’ve tried to make charging pit stops work, but there are too many inconveniences in my location for a daily driver. I would be fine to trade in supercharging for Tesla credit.

    What's the latest on the $5k refund for Performance version buyers?

    I feel fortunate that Tesla is considering refunds, many of us are first day reservation holders who made that early deposit. Now if a $59K vs $64K PUP option was available I would have sprung for the later. PUP owners should be given a refund by dropping free supercharging, they were hit...

    Range efficiency from tire change

    PM3- in the PNW, wet stopping and cornering did not instill much confidence. I haven’t really tested anything aggressive, but my confidence has improved. I can report back when the opportunity arises for testing the limits safely. As the temp gets closer to 40F I’ll be traveling by other...

    Range efficiency from tire change

    I switched from stock all seasons to same size ps4s, same pressure at 42, did not change driving style. 250 Wh/mi changed to 300, so 20% increase.

    Sluggish Off the Line Acceleration Model 3?

    The P3D- will snap your mother-in-law’s neck and yours too if not careful. From 60+ a S90D and P85 felt quicker than P3D- to me.
