This is a big pet peeve of mine, too. Well developed voice commands allow the driver to keep their eyes on the road. Does anyone know of a list of available voice commands?

We have also used Mr Clean Magic Eraser on stubborn stains.

I have a 2018 MS Midnight Silver Metallic exterior with white seats… still looking beautiful after 3 years and 30,000 miles. No problem with any clothing type or color and cleans up easily after food spills. The seats have even survived the dreaded pen in a pocket attack. Clean up with ArmorAll...

Hands on the steering wheel is not enough to satisfy the autopilot that you are alert and ready to take over at any moment. You need to apply a little torque to the steering wheel. It doesn’t need much, just a little turning pressure one way or the other.

I’ve noticed this change to autopilot as well. Sometimes it seems to hunt for the middle of the lane even when there are no cars or trucks in the adjacent lanes. It’s caused me to disable autopilot in cases where it was perfectly fine before. I doubt there’s a way you can change this… likely...

My credit card disappeared the same way when I first got my model S. It’s fairly quick and easy to remove the center console. There are a number of YouTube videos that show you how. Here’s one…

Tip - If you know where you're going BEFORE you get into your Tesla, look it up on your phone using Google Maps or Apple Maps, then, before you map the route, tap Share (box with up arrow icon) to send the destination (through the Tesla app, which I presume you have) to your car. When you jump...

Pick something to focus on and do it concisely and with a sense of humor. I would like to see a video demos of every software update. (If something like this already exists please send a link!)

I’m curious... did you not like these fan style nozzles? What did you replace them with?

Improve voice control and add a wider range of functions especially to control HVAC. Add ability to manage and view Sentry videos on the big screen.

I’ve used auto park many times. The hard part is getting it started... sometimes it just doesn’t recognize the space. Pulling up a little further past the car in front usually does the trick. Once it starts, it does a perfect job every time… At least in my experience. No hitting the curb, no...

So my Model S got broken into a few days ago and annoyingly, I have no video to show for it. I'm on version 2019.16.3.2 which I had set up to automatically turn on Sentry Mode when parked, but apparently, my USB stick was full so nothing got recorded. I have no idea if the horn turned on or if...

The auto wipers have been almost useless since I got my model S last September - very frustrating through the long rainy winter here in the Bay Area. Today was the first time it has rained since I updated to 2019.12. I just drove across town and back in light variable rain, about 20 minutes each...

Brembo brakes, too...

Wait... what??

I couldn’t agree more and I’ve posted about it on TMC before. I think that interacting with the MCU while driving is more dangerous than using a cell phone. The user interface clearly could be improved and outstanding voice control is the solution. But it needs to be done really well so that...

My car is in the garage at home, but the iOS Tesla app says it's at Tesla Headquarters. What's up with that? Is there a forum or thread around here somewhere where folks are discussing the 2019.5.15 update? I would assume that this is a hot topic, but I can't find much. It would be nice to have...

Here where? Is there a specific location on TMC? Thanks!

So there’s this feature called the inbox in the Tesla app, supposedly to deliver information about updates, amongst other things. One would expect to see a list of features arrive in the inbox with every software update. Meanwhile is there a website or webpage anywhere that lists software update...

Does it just come back after a few days? I just lost LTE service on our 2018 S 100D today. This doesn’t seem to be related to a software update and I’ve had no problems after a number of previous software updates. Reboot doesn’t help. On version 2018.48.12.1. Any ideas?

Voice control is desperately in need of major improvement. No amount of UI design will fix the biggest problem with the MCU - that you have to look at it to use it. It’s more unsafe than using a cell phone while driving. When Tesla addresses this problem with a significant improvement to voice...

I agree that lousy voice recognition is not going to help. I expect Tesla to deliver outstanding voice control that is well designed and works reliably. I suspect - and. hope - that the reason we don’t have it yet is because it is taking time to develop and get it right. When they do, it will be...

I am a new owner of a Model S as of September 2018. I've put 3300 miles on the car and I still cannot use the touch screen without feeling like I'm using my phone while I'm driving. The first problem is that you have to scan and read to find what you want. The second problem is that you...

Ok, so how did you do that? I cannot figure out how to change my profile image.

Check out the link in my previous post. There is a system for entering your personalized plate number to check if it’s available.

That thumbnail image didn’t look so good. This should be better...

I just got new 1960’s CA plates for my Model S. You can order a boring random ‘sequential’ plate number or choose your own cool custom ‘personalized’ plate number online at Special Interest and Personalized Plates Takes about 4-6 weeks, Then you pick them up at your nearest DMV and turn in your...
