    Model X Falcon Wing Doors Rubbing Paint Off

    2022 MX LR My right passenger Falcon wing door is rubbing the paint off. I took the car to sc multiple times and was sent to a body shop once. They tried to adjust the alignment but the issue persisted. Has anyone had the same problem and was able to get it resolved?

    2018 MX: FWD not closing at all, phantom obstacle.

    2018 March MX here. Just got the car back from the SC after 10 days for aa firmware upgrade failure that was traced to the ECU on the FWDs. Now the passenger side FWD keeps "detecting" a phantom obstacle. Refuses to close unless I use the override. I don't want to head back to the SC again...
