The display is at 250 miles with 100% charge. Trust me, I know the difference.

We are now getting 250 miles on a 100% charge. Thanks again to Tesla!!!

i haven't trip charged it yet but will let you know

Well I received my refurbished 85 battery today. They lent me a loaner for the day it took to replace my battery to answer the above question. I did ask what caused the fault but the best answer I could get from the Tesla representative was there was an imbalance between the firmware and the...

I am still here waiting on the battery to come in.

Will do. I am keeping my fingers crossed for a 90 like others have said they received on this site.

Just to reiterate the correct facts and math. Tesla recalibrated the battery and reported a 100% charge at 212. Less than a week later it was at 195 @ a 100% charge. A difference of 17 miles and an 8.1% decrease in range. Sorry I was off by a few decimal points earlier but at least I can say...

I will definitely let you know. Tesla did say it might take a while for the battery to come in. When it does I will ask?

Your numbers are still wrong and have inaccurate calculations. I promise you will feel differently if you ever break down on the side of the road with the range indicator saying you have 16 miles left. Once again I know you want to have the last word but you are giving inaccurate information...

Actually many opinions have been taken down even though they were giving sound advice. Thanks again to those that gave great advice including to just keep driving the vehicle and wait for a fault/failure to occur. Once again I paid almost a $100,000 for a vehicle that Tesla said I would have...

You just don't know when to stop just like others have implied. You are the squeaky wheel. Even when Tesla says they will honor the warranty due to a fault in the battery. I am just glad I didn't do anymore than just keep on driving the vehicle like many other people suggested on this site...

They said it could be an 85 or a 90.

Not at this time. I was just happy that they are going to replace it.

So I brought my Tesla in this morning to receive my new set of wheels and tires from Tesla’s referral program. Thanks to Tesla for those. They look amazing!!!! The really great news is that the service manager instructed me that they have found a fault in the battery and will be replacing it...

Unfortunately nothing new to report. I will once anything new comes about.

No. It was in the first post that the moderator took down. I assumed they read it if they took it down.

To moderator: I see that many insults and profanities in this thread that are still being left up on one side of the argument. I actually referred to thread #314 specifically and you have let that profanity remain. Could you please explain why?

Because I am confident that my car will continue to have battery issues and don't want to have to pay a lawyer 5,000 dollars if I don't have to. I am also confident that Tesla will end up doing the right thing. Once again, the real issue is a car that use to get 260 miles of range a little...

Actually I plan on going with option #4 as previously stated in thread #521. "I have decided to go on the advice of many on this thread to just keep on driving the vehicle until the battery leaves me stranded again. I have about two and half years on the 8 year/infinite mile warranty and have...

I wouldn't have to respond as much if people wouldn't keep siting inaccurate information. By the way, davewill was referring to the CAPS being addressed on page 1. Not complaining about the length of the thread. Thanks again to all of you that have provided helpful information with your posts!!

Gilscales is correct. I have tripped charged twice since picking the vehicle up. You are incorrect about me updating daily with a 100% trip charge. I have had to post multiple times because people haven’t read the thread and don’t understand the entire story.

Tesla even took the car into service because it only did a 139 miles when it should have gotten 171 miles that included all interior and exterior driving factors. I plan on giving feedback on where things are headed but do reply to those that make comments like yours above.

yes

Tesla stated they fixed the calibration and range to 212 with a 100% charge. So at that time the battery should have been calibrated. They had it in for a week trying to fix that issue. Not even a week later I am at 190 with a 100% charge. That is a 9% battery capacity loss in less than a...

I had taken the exact same trip 3 months earlier and had the same driving conditions. We got to our destination with 175 miles on the trip with about 10 miles left on the range. Sorry but I am unable to confirm the kWh at that time. The SOC was 209 and the car stopped at 139 during the same...

The article states the battery was replaced under warranty due to inaccurate range estimates. The exact same as what my car experienced last month. Once again I am just trying to let others know what I have been through and what Tesla has done about it. Thanks again for letting me get the word...

I am referring to the article(Tesla Battery Life Longer than Anyone(Except Elon & JB) Expected) by the author of Steve Hanley. Tesla Battery Life Longer Than Anyone (Except Elon & JB) Expected | CleanTechnica

No, according to most on this thread and myself I feel that the majority of Tesla's vehicles don't experience this type of degradation. Although my point is what Tesla wants to categorize degradation as more than "just the slow deterioration of the battery" (ie range indicator malfunction and...

Then for the 11th time, Tesla should report that they covered it under generosity and not document that it was covered "under warranty". Please read the Tesloop article so maybe you can understand. Once again I am just trying to let others know what I have been through and what Tesla has done...

Once again, the title is based on what Tesla has described as being covered "under warranty" for both the range indicator malfunction and the sudden loss of battery capacity. Please read the Tesloop article in regards to what Tesla said was covered "under warranty" There has also been multiple...

I only charge to 100% when I have to take a trip besides this past week when I was trying to see how much battery capacity was lost since I picked it up at Tesla. A loss from 212 to 190 which is a 9% loss in less than a week. I haven't tripped charged it again since then but am curious to see...

There you go again putting a play on words. I haven't said once that I was going to sue Tesla. Although any lawyer would jump at this case in a heart beat and I am positive Tesla wouldn't want it to go to trial. They could be on the hook for all of these cars in the future that are having the...

I never stated that Tesla has a long history of providing "liberal" warranty replacement. I actually have a laundry list of items that have been fixed "out of pocket" or still need to be fixed but isn't a safety issue with the car. All of those items/problems aren't under the warranty...

Thanks for that input. I will try charging to 100% next time on a super charger.

We have been gone this weekend. I plan on switching the cords tonight. Thanks for the input.

We are still looking into it. I haven't found anything yet.

Yes the car had degraded from 260 to 212 over the past 5 years. In the past week it has gone from 212 to 190 when trip charging to 100%. That is a loss of 9% battery capacity in less than a week. I will have to be circular again because I thought we both agreed in above threads that...

Tesla said it wasn't the car but my charger cable or house power source. Just wanted to keep everyone updated. Thanks for the input.

So I got in my car this morning and the range indicator had only 176 with a warning from the car "unable to charge"

Thanks for the advice. I will ask but they have already said the "recalibration" of the battery is all they could do at this time. Thanks for your input.

Thanks for the input. I will follow your advise.

The trip charge @ 100% was down to 195 this morning. That is a 9% decrease since last Friday when I picked it up from Tesla. Thanks for the input.

I will let you know. Thanks for your input.

You really need to read this entire thread if you feel that no one opposes me. You have also stated multiple inaccuracies during your posts. If you try reading the entire thread it might help before you keep on posting. I am waiting on Tesla to define degradation in writing. I was told in...

My 90% is 173 now. It looks like you had a big jump from your 187 to 45. How long did that take? Thanks for the information. It is very helpful.

Please send more information on that thread. I would be very interested with chatting with him.

I appreciate the input. The temperature was 69 degrees after the overnight charge.

I drove it on Saturday to just less than 20% and tripped charged it to 100%. The next morning is when I got the 200 estimated range.

We stopped at McDonald's for a couple of minutes. The kids were hungry. The SOC was 209 at our house. The SOC had been around there for months until last week when I took it in to Tesla. The estimated range now is at 200 on a 100% charge. When I picked it up from Tesla on Friday they said...

209 was the rated range. 171 should have been the actual range given the conditions. Once again the car stopped at 139. Just trying to give people the facts again instead of misleading them with opinions. Once again I am just trying to put the word out about what has happened and what Tesla...
