    10+ minutes to start my "old" tesla is just an inconvenience b/c I chose to do the eMMC recall and install firmware updates

    I have a 2015 Model S purchased used from Tesla in January 2018. For more than a year I have complained to Tesla about the delay. The MCU has been replaced once or twice. The car has had more service issues than I can count. The used car warranty expired last month and this was supposed to be...

    Recall 21V-035 eMMC - Can't Schedule Service

    My car is currently at service for this very issue. I started trying to schedule this in late November. Actually had to schedule for other issues and have a mobile tech come out for an intermittent issue before I could get an appointment for the recall. Then my appointment was rescheduled 4 or 5...

    Actually, this has happened to me multiple times. One appointment was rescheduled 5 times because they were waiting on a part presumably. Mobile appointments were also rescheduled multiple times due to staff shortages with covid. I’ve had 3 appointments rescheduled a total of 9 times all...

    Service issues

    I too am in the south Florida market. I’ve used two service centers and mobile service. Mobile service techs have been great. Customer service reps at both locations struggle with empathy and seem to always be under pressure. The rescheduling happens a lot and I’m guessing it’s a parts...

    CPO Experience/Process December 2018

    I learned the hard way, that the "look" they give the cars may not be so great either. After picking up the car from Orlando and driving to West Palm Beach, I finally figured out how to see the tire pressure status. Found one tire dangerously overinflated (76 psi cold) verified by gauge and one...

    Update to my update... I finally figured out how to check the tire pressure and found the front right had 76psi. I thought it was a mistake. But no, gauge showed it was accurate.

    CPO Experience/Process December 2018

    Update: I got the car and it’s amazing! It was immaculate. There were no photos of any blemishes and there weren’t any surprises at pickup! My only concern was what looked like rust residue in the wheels and door hinges and bottom of the space at the front bumper. I went over the car with a...

    CPO Experience/Process December 2018

    I went to the website and plugged in the VIN for my future car and it showed one recall that needed to be done. I then called the tesla center where I will eventually pick up the car. I spoke with a nice and informative person in the service center. He explained that the cars are stored offsite...

    Does anyone have a list of things to check at delivery? I am really new to this and I have never bought a car in this class before. I've been saving for this car for 10 years.

    CPO Experience/Process December 2018

    I ordered my CPO today. All documents are uploaded and complete. I was told the car is in the Orlando area (about 3 hours from me) and should be ready for pickup in a week. Wish me luck! There were no closeup photos at all so I'm hoping there aren't any scratches, dings, dents, etc. Spoke with...
