Personally I have a MY with SC05 via the "FUSC to FSC" offer from Q42023. The verbiage from that agreement was, "The transferred free Supercharging will be active while you remain the owner of the new vehicle. If you sell or otherwise transfer ownership of the new vehicle, the transferred free...

As part of my inventory Model Y order, Tesla communicated they are now registering and titling vehicles in TX. On the Motor Vehicle Purchase Agreement (MVPA) Final Price Sheet, Tesla now includes the sales tax (line 2D) and registration fees (line 3A) as non-zero values to be paid by the...

Original owner of a Model S 85D. Based on several issues with the vehicle and the Tesla quotes to repair, I'm NOT interested in sinking additional money into the car should something happen HV battery-wise. From the posts by owners who experienced HV battery failure errors, the only updates or...

Just sharing an insight I found in the past month: the time associated with past charging data apparently shifts 1 hour backwards when going on Daylight Saving Time. Not sure if this is a functional impact to anyone, other than I lost my $0 value for "Total Spent".

There's a thread in the Model 3 forums about these errors that some Model S owners responded to (including me), so creating its own Model S thread. Immediately after Supercharging on a road trip recently, I was slammed with errors, explicitly DAS_w009, ESP_w001, ESP_w002, ESP_w003, GTW_w181...

Received word today from Tesla Service that my 2015 Model S 85D needs the battery heater (MDL S, DM, THERM SYS, ELEC BATT HEATER 1038901-00-K) replaced (along with some associated small parts, like a bolt). That portion of the service estimate comes out to $890 before tax. This would be the...

After a few days of "off-nominal performance" (described below), figured out today the seat weight sensor for the driver's seat has failed. There were no obvious cable disconnections below the seat that I could see, so I do believe this is a failure above/beyond just a physical switch...

MCU1 85D with 2021.24.25.1 software plugged in to Gen 1 wall charger. Haven't found a recent answer in my searching and haven't had the car plugged in "long-term" post-battery/chargegate... Will be traveling at the end of the year for two weeks. Currently seeing 3-5% daily vampire drain. Plan...

My driver's door handle has been updated to the gen 3 version. It is the only door with the updated version and this issue only occurs with that door. On two separate hot sunny days (but not on every hot sunny day), when the door handles presented, the door also unlatched with no additional...

This just happened, trying to figure out the best approach. Service appointment was scheduled for yesterday morning, Friday 07August. Arrived on time, but there were no loaners so using Uber credits. Advisor stated "we probably won't finish this today, its possible a tech may finish it on...

Happening in a 2015 85D w/ sw 2020.48.37.1, but just started manifesting itself the past two weeks. I've started noticing intermittent failure of the interior blower fans to start when the AC is started. The first two instances were the first ~3 minutes of opening the door and the AC turning...

Currently on 2020.48.37.1, and I don't believe we had this behavior on a previous build. My wife is the primary driver of our Model S, and her phone is set as the priority Bluetooth device. She has no issues with auto-connections. My phone is the only other Bluetooth device paired with the S...

After another user posted a timeline of ownership (4 years with Model S | Tesla Motors Club), I was curious how mine would look. Compiled my vehicle's history...turned out to be far different from the "100k+ miles and not a single issue" posts I occasionally see. Decided it was varied enough to...

Not sure if it was a parting gift from 2020, or taste of what's to come from 2021, but overnight bubbles appeared on our center display (and are spreading by the hour). The adhesive has been intermittently leaking since September so its not completely unexpected. We were having 2-3x weekly...

2015 MCU1. I've noticed the many threads on display bubbles showing up, with eventually the goo/adhesive leaking out the bottom. I personally had the bubbles on my instrument cluster (but replaced before leak appeared). What I've not seen anyone describe (what I'm experiencing now) is a goo...

Currently own a FUSC/Chargegate S85D. Also own a highway 20 mpg ICE. Looking at a possible Model Y purchase. For a few road trips we will likely take the next few years, I'd like to calculate and compare drive + charge times and costs of the MY vs my S85D vs my ICE. I expect the MY to fall in...

All, Trying to plan ahead for end of the year holiday travels. Starting to go through and compare flight/rental costs into different airports vs driving with ICE vs driving with Model S. I haven't done a road-trip since March 2018 but last time I checked (Jan) I believe my 85D is in the...

All, What's the best method/resource for determining the salvage value of a Model S? I'm trying to update my family's long-term budget/planning, so on the vehicle side, I got some trade-in/appraisal numbers for my 5 yr old MCU1 AP1 85D with an accident on record (but with clean/non-salvage...

MCU1 AP1 S, update in question is 2020.12.11.5 Has anyone had repeated failed updates lead to the instrument cluster going dark (instead of the center display)? Last week, tried a couple times via app to install the update in question. Per app, would get to 10%, and then would reset itself to...

I don't remember seeing this previously (like previously this week when I used it), but today when I was moving the charge limit slider in the app, a range has started appearing in the lower left corner of the battery graphic. The predicted numbers match what the car has shown for a range the...

TMC braintrust, Yesterday my wife ran over "a chunk of the curb broken off onto the road". She brought it to me as soon as she heard something hitting the road while driving. Photo is from the nose facing the rear. Sorry for the quality, it was done after she dropped it off at my work and took...

DISCLAIMER: All information in this post represents my opinion. Any reference to legal matters should not be considered legal advice. TL;DR: 119 days from collision to return of vehicle. 492 days from collision to receipt of Diminished Value payment (as a result of mediation after filing...

In a lawsuit over a collision involving my Model S. The path forward may involve defining Tesla's trade-in valuation process in a court admissible manner (i.e. subpoena and deposition). Has anyone done something similar?

All, I have a 2015 MS 85D with HID headlights with DRL strips. A single cell/bulb in the DRLs has failed. My searching on the forums shows issues with LED DRLs, but not the HIDs... 1) Is the single failure replaceable, or does it have to be an entire headlight unit swap out? 2) Under normal...

Previously my Model S was in a collision and had an airbag deployment. The repair estimate was not high enough to justify a total (my state requires 100% of FMV) so insurance repaired the vehicle. I have the car back in my possession with a confirmed accident and airbag deployment listed on the...

Due to some vehicle swaps, my wife is now driving my 2015 85D and has changed her tune on AP1 - now that she's the daily driver, she sees the value... Went to MyTesla to look at cost, but the unlock is nowhere to be found. Has this happened to others? Do I have to call service to unlock?
