I just started experiencing this about three weeks ago. It's happened about three times since. Oddly, it's only happened at one particular place in a one particular parking spot--all three times. And it's a spot that I only occasionally park in (not at home). It's as if the problem is...

I was a long-time BMW owner (3-series / 2-series for about 17 years or so.) Sold our last 2-series two years ago to buy our Model 3. I haven't regretted that decision for even a second. I think you really need to get your butt into a Tesla Model 3/Y for a few days straight to get a solid feel...

I'm sure this has been addressed by others previously, but I'm unable to find any posts on the subject at the moment. It's my experience (and the experience of my local Speeding Ticket Issuers) that my Model 3--while TACC/AP is engaged--doesn't react nearly as fast as it should when entering a...

I don't know, but there's something different about it. I've owned 2 BMW 3-series and one 2-series and it never happened in those. (We sold our four-door 2-series to get the Model 3 almost exactly one year ago, so my BMW experiences aren't very far behind me.)

Not necessarily. Different cars have different designs. But I also don't recall this ever happening in any other vehicle I've owned over the last 38 years. This isn't a dig against my Model 3. I absolutely love it. I wouldn't redesign it in any way. This was meant only as a reminder that...

3 times. 3 completely different sets of passengers. What can I say...I have friends, neighbors, and family. Some of them are in their 90s. Some of them aren't marathon runners and aren't always smooth on their feet. Some of them maybe have a secret case of hemorroids, walk bow-legged, and...

This is a bit generic, but I've seen it happen three times now in Model 3's... Tesla Model 3 front seat occupants should, in particular, use caution when closing the front doors anytime someone with mobility impairment is entering the back seat area. As the driver, I've now witnessed three...

On the one hand, that's great, but on the other: if they're being used for POVs but monies aren't being collected and being deposited into a appropriated funds unit account...uh oh. But I'm hijacking the thread at this point and that wasn't my intention. Thanks for all the replies!

I'm not suggesting free. Current law would allow Peterson to permit POVs to charge there on a reimbursable basis (at cost of the electricity). If the chargers are already needed, they wouldn't ever be required to charge extra for the EVSE. Monies collected would be put into the official...

Sound advice, but--no offense--these are all things I'm aware of and have already tried with three different installations. One base commander said go to AAFES. AAFES said we're not interested--we rake in the cash with gasoline sales and suggested I go to MWR. MWR said "not unless you bring...

So how do we bring “workplace charging” onto Air Force installations? DOE has it. GSA has it. (Congress even put it into law, so it’s just a matter of getting the installation to implement it.) Has anyone been involved in successfully and legally initiating workplace charging on an USAF or Army...

Leather (late Feb 2019)

We were bummed last year to find out that our Model 3 wouldn't have a heated steering wheel. But then we took delivery (in winter in Germany) and have never thought about it a single time since then (except when I see threads like these!) Always had them in our BMWs but we just don't miss it...

Anything you feel that strongly about should be vocalized at every opportunity. Personally, I would never have assumed that they'd not update...

I think it's more about what you've got on your body that's making the tighty whities not so whitey. Going on a year now and my white Tesla seats have been subjected to far less feces than my shorts, probably because my shorts have been helping to protect my seats!

You took the time to "Disagree" on my post. What exactly do you disagree with? Maybe you'll convince me of something I've overlooked if you actually post a constructive critique.

Sorry--yes, I have tried it. There are times when I've stood for over a minute and nothing happens. Other times, I walk up, wait for a while, then I open up my phone and I hear the car click as it wakes up due to the phone being opened.

Were you successful?

If I am to stand outside the car for 15 seconds, I can use the key card much faster. Most people would agree that it's not desirable to stand next to a car door for 15 to 30 seconds waiting for it finally unlock. The phone is in a front pocket by itself. No disturbing metals of any kind and...

An extra datapoint: In the last few days, when the Tesla app would not fully connect (a portion was greyed out), I opened Safari and visited any webpage and then let the page load onto my phone. I did this on four occasions in two days. Then, when going back to the Tesla app, the app was no...

I'm hesitant to write this--but not so hesitant that I won't write it... My car and I are in Germany, so it wasn't me. That needed to be said first. I have never charged at a destination charger without patronizing the establishment (in my case, always hotels). Let me say: anyone choosing to...

I'll look at that. Maybe I'm sometimes taking 30.1 seconds to get situated before engaging--I wouldn't think so, but it's not impossible. Thanks for the tip!

I've recently experienced similar with my iPhone 8 and XS with my Model 3. App stays greyed out but I have some or all of the in-app button functionality. The issue definitely isn't cellular coverage. I'm thinking it's either device- or app-related rather than vehicle-related. Sometimes a...

Once series-of-events example: My iPhone 8 running iOS 13.3 (but same goes for my iPhone XS running iOS 13.3) is in my pocket. The car is locked and doesn't always auto-unlock. I take it out of my pocket and open the Tesla app (3.10.3) . Car is still locked. App shows Model 3 as 'waking...

This is not my experience. I get in and am ready to depart in about 10 seconds. When attempting to put the car into D or R, I get the PIN and key card pop-ups on-screen.

If I tap to open, I still have to tap the console. PIN to drive is enabled. Keyless driving is also enabled. I have an iPhone. I do know this. But this is a wallet that's usually kept in my pants pocket. Once I sit down in the car and tap the card, it's uncomfortable to put the wallet back...

Never seen talk of this and couldn't find it in a search, so here goes... I've run into the situation a few times where my phone wasn't able to connect to my Model 3, so I used my key card instead. No problem--enter the vehicle, lay my wallet on the center console, tap in my PIN and drive off...

To be clear, when I was rerouted, the traffic that I could see was also clear. The jams were up further, miles ahead, and the car prevented me from becoming stuck in them.

There is such a thing as overengineering. 2FA for my Tesla will be an example of such. Really hope we can disable it.

Are you 100% that it wasn't a dynamic shortcut of some sort due to traffic? Two or three times, I've run into NOA freaking me out because I thought I knew better, but, in fact, it was saving me from traffic jams.

Today, I received my "two minute warning" update notice while I was in the middle of driving. The clock started counting down (1:59, 1:58, 1:57...) while going 70mph (120km). Earlier in the day I had received the notice that an update was available. In app, I said "run it". For unknown reasons...

Renew your IP address lease, change your Model 3's IP address on your network, and reboot your router. It might help you like it helped me.

In decades of forum memberships here and there, TMC seems to have one of the highest levels of "web-based roid rage". Still trying to sort out in my own mind why that is...

This is not true. Tesla Stores in Germany will sell a vehicle to a non-German customer if delivery is to take place in Germany and the vehicle is to be registered with German license plates. You are, in some manner, not accepting this. Please show us where the EU regulations demand that all...

I've always defined a door as being the portal through which one enters or leaves a given space. On the other hand, a trunk / engine compartment / frunk / bonnet / boot is covered by its lid which sometimes goes unmentioned (as in 'close the trunk', 'shut the frunk', et al.) I conclude 'rear...

Others have run into this as well. It resolved itself for me when I changed my router from issuing the Model 3 a static IP on the home network to having it issue a dynamic one, and then restarting the router. At that point, the router had a new public IP address and the Model 3 also had a new...

And, for me its because they've indeed jerked the wheel with an intent to cut in front of me.

Sounds like you're using TACC on undivided two-way roads. It's simply not made to do that. If you're indeed talking about AP and not TACC, you're saying that AP (which is BETA) brakes very often? I see it happen from time to time, yes, but not what I'd call very often. From the manual...

We're going on 3 1/2 months and 12,000 km. Absolutely amazing to be a part of this movement. Couldn't be more satisfied with the decision.

BMW 218d (2015) => Model 3 LR AWD

I had the same for about 36 hours. I then went into my router and took a look at things. I had assigned my Model 3 a fixed IP address. Switched it to dynamic IP address and rebooted my router. About an hour later, the software update was available. Could've all just been a coincidence, but...

Is anyone seeing better results with reporting of incorrect speed limits?

That's not what I implied at all. But now we know what you inferred. Why would you automatically infer something so illogical? I meant to convey that that you're acting like a control freak when it comes to Navigate on Autopilot. Is NoA flawed? Absolutely! Are most of the points you're...

My statement wasn't illogical at all. But you don't have an open mind on this subject, so no sense in continuing.

If you don't want told by your car to change lanes, maybe you're not a good candidate for using software which is specifically designed to drive for you--and a BETA version of said software at that. Patient: "Doctor...it hurts when I twist my wrist too far." Doctor: "Well, maybe you should...

Not going to continue this with you. I'm against 2FA in this situation. I've said my piece. Feel free to keep talking over me if you so chose.

I certainly hope so. But reality shows that most companies initially provide optional 2FA, but then ram it down everyone's throat later down the road. Apple is a perfect example of that.

I see a lot of "be careful what you wish for" in this thread. My two cents: what we have isn't really broken, but what some of you are wishing for will needlessly add complexity and eventually break something for someone.
