    Just replying to your post =)

    Service: What can be done?

    Sorry to burst your bubble but the real world is a harsh place. Not everyone is born with tons of money, most people work their life for it and that's how people learn not to take things for granted nor to be entitle just because you think you deserve something. People can be proud of buying a...

    Service: What can be done?

    Perhaps this should teach your kid that the world doesn't go around him and he's probably not as special as you may make him believe. Things get earned and if people can't afford a car, they should wait until they are in a better financial situation instead of stretching themselves and looking...

    Totally agree with this.

    Service: What can be done?

    Finally, someone said it!! I totally agree with this statement. I've been buying Mercedes Benz for the last 5 years prior my Model 3 and this is the first time I've ever seen people whining for little things even thou we sure paid more than 60k for each MBZ. I've seen brand new Mercedes...

    Overpaid for FSD, No Early Access - Class Action Time?

    Not really. Right now counts as "later" and is indeed more than $3000 dollars. Since there's no end date, you can't measure it with your normal standards because even if it didn't apply to you back then, it does now hence your whole argument becomes null. Is hard to make everyone happy but...

    The four cameras saved me $1000 and my driving record...

    Don't forget to file for diminishing value if possible. Additionally, go to doctor for a full check up just in case.

    Overpaid for FSD, No Early Access - Class Action Time?

    I don't think now one lied to you to buy the product. He just offered that retroactive payment and it just didn't apply to you. /facepalm

    Tesla gave my car away to someone else

    Lol! Competition is still trying to figure how a 2012 Model S works. If there's any competition, it would probably be with based on 2012 tech which I don't think would be fun. The OP went to check the VIN number that was on the website but it wasn't posted for him to see... that doesn't mean...

    Did you lower your Model 3 with TSportline springs as well? If so, how's the ride and cornering?

    Starting to regret my purchase

    Now... if you add up California's chemical restrictions and the heavy snow / heat in other parts of the world, you can't blame them that much. Of course, you may say that other manufacturers don't have similar issues but doubt they are assemble in California =S.

    Starting to regret my purchase

    I'm not quite sure if your math is right... perhaps stats are not your forte but out of the 500k+ Teslas and 300k+ Model 3s? out in the wild, doubt half of them are actually with issues. Then again, that also happens on other manufacturers but you get it as recalls and such.

    "Tesla": The word that will get you a better Mercedes lease.

    Hmm, to be honest, none existent. I always drive with my windows open (even during winter) and with music so I barely pay attention to cabin noise on either of the cars and I drive over 70 mph all the time xD. The only thing I miss from my E300 is the massage feature but besides that, my Model...

    Starting to regret my purchase

    It sucks but that's life... Murphy's law. Not all cars are perfect since we as human are not perfect; therefore, issues like these are bound to happen from time to time. Quality Control is based by a sample from a batch which pretty much applies to all companies, OP just happened to draw the...

    "Tesla": The word that will get you a better Mercedes lease.

    Interesting... I've owned (not leased) Mercedes for the last 6 years... between Cs and Es (being the last one I owned an E300) and my experience with service rep was a hit a miss... My 2015 C300 engine died right at 50k miles and took close to 3 months to have it back not without them taking...

    How do you feel with those TS lowered springs? I've been debating between those and UP Mild for the longest haha. I have a RWD Model 3.

    Sentry mode rather useless

    I understand but you have to admit that even the manual says that dashcam feature is in beta version. If the car came with Sentri Mode, then it's a plus since I don't think you can find it in the vehicle description when you bought it. About explaining some of the features. I never got...

    Sentry mode rather useless

    People complain about everything these days. Tesla was never meant to have this system to begin with nor they were required to provided. I never had it on my previous vehicles nor Mercedes Benz dealers were offering it to me. Tesla did listen to its customers and provided a way to help with...

    All these tire threads have me...tired

    Same here. I need to change all my tires on my 2018 RWD M3 (19'') but I'm not sure if I should just get summer tires and then later on get another set of winter tires or just go along with same OEM tires and call it a quits until they wear off again. I drive in SoCal and which involves lots of...

    Tesla Software 2019.16.3

    Weird, I always have both on and I get the line assistance and sometimes the warning messages every time I get too close to the divider lines or try to cross it without signals. Additionally, I get the same assistance if I signal and try to change lines at same time.. I need to wait at least 1...

    Nope, there was a post made by the driver stating the above.

    interior lights RPM vs. Abstact Ocean

    I have RPM Tesla's blue interior light as well as trunk and glovebox lights and no issues so far. Exterior puddle lights are from RPM Tesla as well but I may change them to the "T Tesla" or something among those lines. I believe you can go either or, it wouldn't be much of a difference.

    [POLL] ELDA users, what is your experience? (Emergency Lane Departure Avoidance)

    I believe it works as intended. My previous car, a E300 2017 MBZ, had the same feature but it was mostly a hit and miss. My tesla shows a better understanding of the road therefore it's way safer than the distronic plus avoidance system that I used to own. Perhaps most people here complain...

    Model 3 AP Induced Crash?

    I believe Tesla's report and driver said that it was the driver's fault. AP was engaged but it was overruled by the driver pressing the acceleration pedal when he fell sleep. That would explain the increase of speed while taking the exit (for people that uses AP in a daily basis, they should...

    Tesla cutting costs and refusing to repair paint damage

    Same. I had the same issues in my red 2017 E300 hence I did add PPF on my vehicle.

    Model 3 paint wearing off

    Perhaps because other car brands are not assembled or painted in California?

    Tesla cutting costs and refusing to repair paint damage

    I had paint issues when my car was delivered to me but Tesla did address the issues within weeks and drop some fixes as well that I didn't know there were there. Overall, it seems that it's a hit and miss with their service since I had amazing experiences when going to their service center.

    Don't take your hands off the wheel

    I agree to disagree. My previous vehicle before Tesla M3 was a 2017 E300 with distronic plus (which is the driver assistance package) and have to say that it is way inferior than the EAP package that Tesla offers. The Mercedes Benz package was not able to take over the turns and in some cases...

    Diminished Value Claim - Still Possible If Person at Fault Pays For Damages?

    Hmm, I had my battery pack replaced due to road hazard puncture a while ago. Insurance claim took care of it but I didn't know there was a chance to claim for DV. Perhaps it doesn't apply to my case but it is interesting to know there's that route.

    That looks good. Did you lower your car as well? This reminds me that I have my brand new 18'' wheels and tires sitting in my garage since I got my car lol... I guess I need to sell them as well haha

    Performance PKG via software upgrade

    As someone who didn't had a chance to get a Performance model due to the long wait time. I would totally pay to unlock some more power on my RWD. I love that sport steering feeling on RWD than on the AWDs hence just a bit more pawaa would be nice.

    Tesla Model 3 RWD 0-60-MPH Before & After Performance Update: Video

    Is it? It wasn't for me. But even with a 4.99 or 5.0 seconds, with the 5% peak power increase, shouldn't be a bit faster on the 0-60? Perhaps around 4.9 or 4.8s
