    FSD Availability?

    My MYLR is at 2023.6.11. If I subscribe to FSD Beta now, will I get the full FSD on city streets or do I need to wait?

    2023 MYLR7, 19”, tow - 1 month (500 miles) into ownership ( and comparison against 2020 Kia Niro EV)

    I had a 2018 Niro PHEV, top of the line, forget the model name. My biggest gripes: 1. Lane Keep would not work with shadows on the road. Would not slow down for corners. No audible alert when it turned LKAS off. 2. Cooled seats were better than nothing, but not anywhere near what I had on other...

    Several Questions

    I have a 2022 MYLR, took delivery 8/30/2022, 3820 miles. A few things I need help with. 1. For at least a month now, whenever I start YouTube, the driver seat goes all the way back (not the Easy Exit position, seat just goes rearward as far as possible, steering wheel does not move). If I touch...

    Common Safety and Related Features YLR Doesn't Have / Works Poorly?

    Having owned both a Kia and a MachE, these are both poor alternatives to a MY, on many levels. FWIW, when the MY at the time was about $15k more than the MY, worth every penny, especially if you are concerned about safety. LKA on the MachE is a total joke. Software just barely better than...

    Upset that Tesla screwed customers who took delivery in the last few months

    Bad Tesla day. My 4 month old MYLR just took a huge depreciation hit thanks to todays big price reduction. Second, FSD capability is why i bought a Tesla. Just watched Out of Spec Dave’s YouTube FSD review and I see how terrible it really is, on par with Autosummon. I am glad I didn’t waste $200...

    MyQ multiple locations

    First, I have the MyQ app on my phone and it works great. I can control my garage and my friends garage (I am set up as a co-owner on his MyQ account). When the app opens, I can choose to control either my garage door or my friends. I also have my Tesla MY set up with my account and it works...

    MYLR take delivery in Dec 2022 or wait it out for HD radar in 2023? Don’t ’NEED’ the car but won’t qualify for Federal EV credits either.

    If you wait, also wait until the new computer is available (AP4?). However, if you are not interested in FSD on city streets, might not matter. Personally, I think the biggest reason to wait is to see what happens with the elimination of USS. For me, not having USS is a deal-killer as I totally...

    TESLA PRICING

    I live in the US. I’ve noticed that Tesla pricing (cars and software) varies drastically by country after converting the price to USD. I can understand a higher price in other countries, but only if this price includes any additional taxes or features. However, what really triggers me is that...

    2023 MYP impressions

    Thanks, I will try the reduced tire pressures. But, first I will check the load/tire pressur charts to make sure a lower pressure can safely carry the weight. To be fair, I only experience the really bad ride quality on local residential roads that are poorly maintained. However, even my 2018...

    2023 MYP impressions

    I hope you are happy with your ride a month from now. I took delivery of a MYLR on 8/30/22, Austin build. My first Tesla, and I was mentally prepared for a harsh ride. To my surprise, it rode very nice. However, that didn’t last long. I have (only) 1300 miles on it now. The ride got worse...

    The new $39,000 Kia Niro EV has ventilated seats

    As a former Kia Niro PHEV owner, I have a few comments. First, the ventilated seats, I hardly knew they were there. MAYBE better than nothing, but not what one would expect. I complained to Kia, like everything else, no fix. Second, lane keep really sucked from MANY aspects. Yes, there were a...

    New Rear Seat Emergency Exit

    I took delivery of my 2022 MYLR 8/30/2022. It was built in Austin. In the rear door storage bin, there is a cover on the bottom with a distinctive bulge. Use this to pull up and remove the cover which exposes a red handle to pull to open the door in the event of a power failure. I have pics but...

    Ioniq 5 vs Model Y

    As a former Kia PHEV owner, the OWNERSHIP experience was not good either if you are expecting any software updates/fixes. However, it did have two features I really miss. Cooled seats that almost worked and RCTA.

    Autopilot not working

    I had a similar experience but even lane keep would not work. Also, intermittentl, my windshield wipers would start by themselves at various speeds. I had washed the MY the day before, but at 5’8”, my dinosaur arms would not reach the camera portion of the windshield to clean it (looked ok...

    Will SC costs decrease as gas price decreases?

    I can see how confusing the first line of my reply is. My prior car was a Kia Niro PHEV. I rarely go anywhere, so the Kia only got filled with gasoline only 2-3 times per year. It was a bit more efficient of electric than the MY on electric. The only road trip in the Kia was driving it back from...

    Driving safety - backing/parking

    2022 MYLR built in Austin, one month old, 510 miles, still getting used to it. Also, I am 75 and purchased this car having been told it has advanced driving features which I need to rely on having vision in only one eye. Two very disconcerting issues lately. First, I inadvertently engaged...

    New Model Y Frunk Close Issue

    Second attempt at fixing my frunk closure problem. Tech pulled out the frunk, replaced the actuator and adjusted everything and then open/closed a bunch of times. Hope this fixes it finally. Took about 45 minutes.

    Desperate for advice

    Update - I called the Eatonville SC. Nice lady says my service request is being evaluated by a virtual assistant to determine if it requires mobile or SC visit. A bit later, she advises mobile service will take care of it and shortly thereafter I get a message in the mobile app that they will be...

    How do I communicate this to Tesla? Not sure if I should use the Roadside option (car is in my garage) or somehow use another option in the app?

    Desperate for advice

    When using the recommended two hands on side of the T closure method, I can push the hood all the way down. However, it is flush on the passenger side but the driver side is elevated like it would be when the Ioen Frunk button is pushed on the app, just not elevated quite that high.

    Desperate for advice

    New owner, 2 weeks, really confused about service. 2022 MYLR, frunk won't close, so car can only go 15 mph. When I picked up the car, they told me to use the app if I need service. So, I did that but it is giving me an Oct 9 appointment at closest SC 40 miles away. There is no legal way for me...

    Selling on Vroom, Carvana or Driveway

    I sold my Kia Niro EX Premium PHEV to Carvana on 9/6/22. Highest offer, Vroom second, 5 others were far less. Very impressed with Carvana. It took 15 minutes and they handed me a check on the spot.

    Will SC costs decrease as gas price decreases?

    Here in FL, the $/mile WHEN CHARGING FROM HOME is approximately the same as my former car. On a road trip, I am much better off buying gas, cheaper and a whole lot more convenient. I really feel bad for the folks in Europe, terrible high electricity (recently 2x for residential and 5x for small...

    Autopilot issue

    2022 MYLR, four days old. Driving on two-lane road with Autopilot on at 55 mph, a car about an eighth of a mile from me pulls out and crosses my lane. Although he was well out of my way, my Y slows down anyway (seemingly after he was already well out of my lane). I stepped on the accelerator and...

    New Model Y Frunk Close Issue

    Opened my frunk on my 4-day old MYLR and it would not latch closed. After dropping it down on the initial catch, using the “hands on each side of the T”, I could easily push it down flush as it should be, but it would not latch. I had to use the app to reopen and try again, at least 20 times...

    New loaner/Uber policy?

    These are actions that a company takes when it is desperate for $, when it is trying to avoid bankruptcy. Sadly, I just purchased my Tesla this week. Had I known this was going down last week, I would have canceled. I am now really torn. I love the car, but I live 100 miles round trip from the...

    New loaner/Uber policy?

    If they charge $100 for rescheduling an appointment, it is only right that Tesla PAY US $100 when they change an appointment. My Kia dealer treats me like royalty and I didn't even buy it from them. The way things are going at Tesla, they are in for a spectacular crash. This is not about...

    Last update. Picked up my no-option MYLR today. I am extremely impressed on several fronts. First, my wife hates Teslas but admits this one is pretty nice. I didn't find any issues. Drove it home 45 miles. Absolutely no squeaks or rattles. Very quiet, found myself cruising well over speed limit...

    UPDATES. Yesterday (Friday) I received my VIN with EDD OF Sept 1-5. Next step in the Tesla app was to send my insurance info, and I sent a pic of my insurance card. Midday Saturday I got a text and email with a link to choose my delivery date. Of course, I’m going to choose the earliest...

    New loaner/Uber policy?

    Episode 367 of Ride The Lightning podcast at the 30-31 minute mark mentions new upcoming Tesla policy that eliminates all loaners and Uber credits. WTF???

    Congratulations! I have a question. Since you did not get a charger with your MY, I assume they did not give you a J1772 adapter? If that is the case, I will not have a way to charge mine if it ever comes.

    Test Drive

    A few years back, a customer tweeted that he had never had a test drive, his new M3 was coming and he was concerned with possibly not liking it. Elon tweeted back that a customer that never had a test drive could return his new Tesla within 3 days if he was not happy. Does anyone know if this...

    Supercharging newbie question

    I don't have my MY LR yet and I don't know how to determine SC rates. However, using info from Tom Molougney on YT, he says the SC near him in NJ is 52 cents/kwh. He also says, with his $4/month EA membership, the cost at a EA 350 kw charger is 41 cents/kwh. Other than the cost of a CCS adapter...

    Eye Tracking

    "Almost" a new Tesla owner, but I have a very worrisome issue regarding Autopilot and FSS Beta which I plan on subscribing to once my MY LR is delivered within the next month. Without going into details, I have two eyes. The problem is I can only use my left eye, my right eye is staring off...
