    Chicago Auto Pros: New Car Inspection Fail Video

    Pretty sure panel gaps were never mentioned in that video - except that the tailgate was aligned properly....and was missing so much paint the undercoat was clearly showing through... You're cool with that? And as a millennial, you don't speak for me

    Are Service Centers Correcting Door Hinges with Hammers and Chisels?

    Have noticed multiple posts documenting "paint chips" and banged up door hinges - a more recent post contained pictures that, to me, look like someone took a hammer and chisel to the door hinges.....What do you guys think?

    Tesla Model Y Dog Mode...Almost Killed My Dog

    Just out of curiosity - on what basis (apart from post history) - are you discrediting the OP? What facts do you have to discredit the OP? Are you implying that it is improbable that a Tesla car experiences a software glitch? Are software glitches rare on Tesla vehicles?

    Whose M3 has NEVER been back to SC for ANY reason? Any??

    I know polls cannot be viewed as accurate, especially one like this, on this particular site....anyway lets see what happens Has your Model 3 EVER been back to the SC for ANY reason??? This does include initial delivery "due bills" -- if your car had to go back for delivery issues, that does...

    Snippiness 2.0

    Moderators --- I am recommending that there be criteria put in place to protect participants in this forum from baseless attacks - such as the one on this OP's credibility - this would to promote free and fair discussion in an open forum such as this - it is not appropriate, nor healthy for the...

    Snippiness 2.0

    I have reported you for making assumptions and accusations with no evidence - you have no knowledge of OP's situation, nor do you have OP's consent to make such claims OP please correct me if I am wrong You are flat out lying - and for what reason? Why are you slandering the reputation of OP?

    You know this how? Have you ever spoken to OP? Seriously, what do you base your claims on?

    Awaiting repair # 8 & 9 next week.

    OP --- just out of curiosity - what was the cost of your M3? What were the cars you had before the M3, and how did they compare in terms of quality/reliability? Fair questions right? Or am I going to get to banned again? ;-)

    the wife doesn't like my car any more

    Wait - I thought ICE drivers were Neanderthals who are far too simple to "get" the Tesla high tech - it was too complicated/enlightened for their walnut sized plebe brain Now you're saying the car they drive requires a flight engineer? :rolleyes: Pardon me - time to smell my own farts.

    the wife doesn't like my car any more

    Do you think there is actual intelligence involved with tapping at a touch screen interface? Smartphones are easily used by pretty much the entire world population, regardless of education.....Hell, even toddlers can use iPads.... Perhaps some people value their time/energy/attention and don't...

    Why are people waiting at Costco gas stations instead of buying Teslas?

    I was going to ask how long the average Tesla owner sits while charging, but considering V10 update mostly included media updates like Netflix integration, I'm guessing its longer than people at Costco

    Are the side windows too small?

    Then why all the aftermarket "Noise reduction gaskets" sold on Amazon for TM3? Their design sucks - this coming winter will prove it even more

    Why are people waiting at Costco gas stations instead of buying Teslas?

    I rented a townhouse from a multi-millionaire who drove a dingy 1995 Toyota Camery.....he didn't care what people thought of him, he provided for his family and lived a simple life....

    Why are people waiting at Costco gas stations instead of buying Teslas?

    *I added the emphasis/bold font* Are you sure people who try to save a cent here or there cannot afford a $40,000 car? If my understanding is correct, the smartest money people never buy new cars, because they let "suckers" take the depreciation hit.....With Tesla's pricing changes, that is...

    If they didn't have a game/arcade team, the company would be closer to making a profit

    You're never driving my kids around

    on driving a Jeep with TACC and lane assist..

    I wouldn't be stating that TACC detects stopped vehicles - the firetruck is only one of many examples proving that statement is patently false

    The firetruck would beg to differ.....

    FEELING SCAMMED BY TESLA

    How does one go from a "free supercharging for life" category to "bill for supercharging" category? What mechanism would cause a supercharger user to be shifted from said categories every two months? It sure looks to me that Tesla, a company with 30,000+ employees and valued higher than...

    Ap And Defensive Driving

    It's ridiculous statements like this that instills overconfidence in people - leading to dangerous/tragic situations Where is there any proof of a "neural net"? I also challenge your assertion of it NEVER blinking.....phantom braking?

    Cars To Avoid On The Highway

    I'm sorry I don't follow ---- you're driving a quick car, why are you worried about who is behind you? Why does your car's ability to "virtually drive itself" make you more vulnerable to morons behind you? I'm genuinely curious, as there are many people who post on this forum about rear-end...

    What’s the one thing you like the least about your Model 3?

    But there are so many ways you can refine the M3 into your own custom luxury motorcoach: - aftermarket weatherstripping and noise reduction kits - custom door button stickers for passenger education - custom center console films to protect the piano finish - custom soft close frunk...

    I'm speechless, how can Tesla do this?

    You're not 'jumping down the throat' of the OP --- but you're still minimizing. As it has been stated many many times in this forum: people give Tesla a pass far too often - and that has lead to much bigger issues than missing touch-up paint (although to be frank, that isn't as unacceptable as...

    I'm speechless, how can Tesla do this?

    And this is relevant why? If you went to the grocery store and ended up with an empty gallon of milk, would you shrug your shoulders and accept it because the cereal box you bought last week wasn't empty? Deflect much?
  36. adam0785

    I'm speechless, how can Tesla do this?

    I'll ask you, just like I asked another: OP obviously reacted to this situation in a different manner than you feel he should have --- what gives your opinion more merit than OP?? OP entered into a financial transaction with Tesla (a company of 30,000+ employees and worth more than Ford, GM...

    I'm speechless, how can Tesla do this?

    Because you don't feel the same way as OP, does it make the feeling incorrect? Everyone reacts differently to events/circumstances....

    FUD - Businesses insider "The star of 'Aladdin' claims a defect in his Tesla Model 3"

    Have you or your wife been involved in an accident like this when driving each other's car? What about everyone that uses rental cars? Are they plowing these unfamiliar cars into trees? Keep in mind you can rent pickup trucks, sports cars, exotic cars.... Obviously the Aladdin actor is a...

    I'm speechless, how can Tesla do this?

    Dude orders a product from the OEM, is mailed an empty box, and you all jump down the customer's throat? OP -- props for staying so cordial --- you've been accused of some nasty stuff: 1) Mail fraud 2) Securities fraud 3) Trying to get Tesla employees fired 4) Being immature for complaining...

    How was your model 3 quality when you took delivery?

    I highly doubt there are quality issues with the Camry LE (the 25K model) --- could you elaborate/source your statement? I have two friends with 2018 LE models (they both paid 2-3K less than 25K actually), and another friend with a 2017 RAV4 --- those cars are top tier quality. I would hazard...

    Lane departure avoidance issues

    100% honest question: with their 'driver assist' system literally driving people into the broadside of semi-trucks, concrete barriers, firetrucks, street-sweeping trucks, etc etc ----- how does Tesla justify rolling out an engaged-by-default 'driver assist' feature like this???
  43. adam0785

    How was your model 3 quality when you took delivery?

    I'm not trying to convince anyone of anything ---- I just wish people were more objective and encouraged Tesla to continually strive to improve to the point where the phrase "they're a startup company" never has to be uttered in their defense
  44. adam0785

    How was your model 3 quality when you took delivery?

    Your picture proves my point.....that Enclave in the background has less than half the panel gap than the 3 --- good thing Tesla doesn't build submarines
  45. adam0785

    How was your model 3 quality when you took delivery?

    If Tesla customers actually refused poor quality craftsmanship - all of this would have been figured a long time ago: either Tesla deliver an automobile with industry standard build quality, or it would go out business.... The fact that there is a thread dedicated to whether or not a Tesla...

    How was your model 3 quality when you took delivery?

    You all disagree with me, however I'm certainly not the first to say it - and will not be last

    How was your model 3 quality when you took delivery?

    I would bet everything I own/would ever own that the 11 votes stating their car was inspected by Elon/and whatever the second poll choice is (basically everyone who says their car was delivered perfect) -- stopped looking before even seeing the vehicle. And it is those people/and people with...

    Currently advertised: "Summon allows your car to find you in parking lot. REALLY"

    On Tesla's website, they advertise two types of "autonomous" features: ones that are implicitly available now, and those that are "coming later" --- ok fine Included in the implictily available features now is "Summon: your parked car will come find you anywhere in a parking lot. Really."...
