I would like to back out of my garage down my private driveway without my seatbelt connected. If you do not connect the seat belt, the car can come to a sudden stop (almost puts itself in park). I used to be able to do it but now its almost impossible to back out of the garage without the belt...

Yes, my model 3 does this at times...never when driving it though....very typical when I get in the vehicle at ready to drive. Figured it was just some relay.

Just double checked....heater is not on, its charging and it is the Sun keeping it warm at the moment. Guess I'll have to wait and see; just don't know where 90 miles went in one night.

Was charged at 270miles yesterday. Drove a couple of errands and parked it (not plugged in) with 240 miles left on the battery. Today I tried to "contact" the car to turn on the heat. Phone would not connect. Went out to car, screen would not light up and I "possibly" heard the heater...

Well I did speak to a lawyer about it. Its a he said she said thing. No way to prove it. She did say she could send them a letter....and that they would probably turn it over to their insurance.....The body shop guy said it happened most likely in transport. Really I would just like to...

Well, ok, keeping the thread running..... Spoke to the lawyer again...She said we really can't prove who did it.....turned it over to the insurance company. They agreed to pay, yes you are reading this correctly, $10,000 to fix he damage. Go Figure....And I've only driven the thing 5 times or...

Thanks Daniel. Their lifts move. If you look closely at the floor you can see the marks that the lift leaves.

Yes, Chris, we posted at the same time, see my explanation above. They don't know that I figured it out. After talking to lawyer I'm calling the owner and saying we have to talk. Maybe it was an accident. Maybe they really didn't know. But the photos? Damaging evidence. It's so obvious.

Well, I emailed lawyer friend who is familiar with the situation. I sent her the photos and a similar explanation. I'm calling the body shop and asking them to hold off. I'm wondering if the lawyer is just going to tell me to turn it into the car insurance and they can investigate. Those...

here is another image with the silver line showing the lift is too high as it went towards the front of the car. Again shot from the font. The lift was coming in the opposite direction.

Sorry thought it was obvious, but you are right. There is a shinny silver wheel in the front of the lift in the exact place the damage occurred. They had the lift too high when they rolled it under. Here is another photograph with the imprint of the wheel where the damage starts. Your...

I got to set things straight. although we have posted a lot on Tesla's quality issues and they sure do have them....I have concluded that it was not Tesla that did the damage to my car. I'm going to post another image and tell me whats wrong. When I looked at the damage there was a...

About 200 miles.

you are a smart man Ninja, I wish I had this wisdom prior to the delivery. Thanks for the support. Out of interest I'll keep this thread running as things unfold. I should hear from the auto body shop where they want to take this on Monday.

the damage it just under the front door (near the front of the door itself) on the bottom of the rocker.

I didn't take the pic and the lighting from the detail shop reflects a lot, but here is an outside pic showing you cannot see the damage when doing a "walk around" the vehicle.

Ken, Cherry Hill actually delivered it to me. One of their "energy" people dropped it off. Very nice lady; who knows maybe she did it? I posted my story on another thread. Guy posted pictures of his undercarriage damage. Little different than mine, but similar issue. The Tesla rep that...

Honestly folks, even when you take your car in for service I would suggest an entire video of the car be taken.

Trev, Ya, need to get the pics from the body shop and the estimate before I have a lawyer fire a note to California. The body shop is going to try to heat it up and attach pins to it in an attempt to straighten it out. It doesn't need to be perfect since you cannot see it. You literally have...

Here are pics from the model s that was in the shop. You can see the peeling paint.

Guess the one pic says it all! You cannot see this unless you get on the ground and look for it. Despite pictures, low low low mileage (waited for appointment to get ceramic coated and clear bra)....Tesla's response was pretty much, "you had the car for three weeks and we could not have...

sorry forgot pics. Uploading them now. For an update on this. Car is at body shop. Estimate is 2000 low and 5000-6000 high. Guy told me if he needs parts it could take 1-3 months to get them...and to just drive the car for now. He had another model 3 with 9/19/18 written on the...

My post ownership experience has been horrible. I did the same thing; I took delivery and parked the car in the garage. Drove it a couple of times - short range stuff. Finally got my appointment, dropped the car of Saturday for the ceramic coat and clear wrap. I get a call seven oclock...

I'm posting this hoping that this does not happen to others. I received my model 3 and pretty much didn't drive it until I could get an appointment at a shop to have it detailed. I get a call that there is damage to the bottom of the car.... Long story short, Tesla was completely unwilling to...
