summon

Hello TMC! Just ordered my Tesla 3 and have already benefited quite a bit from these forums in making my choices. So thanks. For those curious: 3D vs P3D - went with 3D since I'm coming from a Rogue and I'd probably be impressed with even a RWD. So I'll build up to the P3D :). Plus P3D scared...

Hi All, I'm really excited to get my car and I liked most of it. However, I don't think my car has enhanced summon. From the app I can just drive forward or reverse but It doesn't allow me to choose a point and navigate there. Does that mean my car has 2.5 HW? or the enhanced summon is not...

I didn't elect to purchase the auto driving option but used it occasionally during the trial period. The car is such a pleasure to drive, I elected not to purchase. I didn't realize that I was going to lose the summon feature when I lost autopilot. I have a tight garage and this feature is...

Just want to share an awesome edge use case experience I had with the summon feature. I drive to a central parking lot then take the bus to work on a daily basis. On a particular day last week I was late and saw the bus starting to leave from the far end of the lot towards me just as I entered...

I picked up my Model 3 this passed Saturday and it came with the standard AP. Unfortunately it is missing one feature that should not be a part of FSD and that is the ability to switch lanes when I put on my turn signal. I understand if I want it to suggest lane changes or do them by itself I...

It’s fun, but the slow speed would irritate other drivers Here is a new set of videos presenting the Tesla Model 3 in Summon Mode (the Enhanced Summon, which enables one to summon the car from one point of the parking lot to another where the driver is located), provided by Going ALL Electric...

Hello everyone, just got my new Model 3 two days ago, and I am having problems to have the "summon before exiting vehicle" feature to work. Summon works perfectly if I control it from my phone, but if I want it to start before exiting the vehicle by double-pushing the button on the right lever...

Forget about finding your car, the car will find you. Tesla recently upgraded its Summon feature, which originally enabled one to move the cars forward or backward using the smartphone app, to a new kind of “remote control mode” (a big RC car). The new Advanced Summon makes it possible to turn...

Didn't know whether to post this in Driving Dynamics or here in UI. Picked here. I originally ordered & 6 mos ago received my LR AWD M3 without autopilot. Several weeks ago I successfully tested the basic summon & was able to move the car in and out of my garage with no issues using it. A few...

Hello, I'm looking to do a video project to share with various social media communities (YouTube, Facebook, reedit, and prominent EV blogs) to raise awareness on the deficiencies in Tesla features for customers outside the United States vs those inside. The project is meant to be light hearted...

I have a 3 car garage with a 2 car and 1 car doors. I use summon to pull my M3 into the 1 car door. This one car door has a wall close on the driver's side, which is why I use summon. This is also the side my wall connector is on. The passenger side opens to the rest of the garage. My problem is...

So I'm doing the EAP trial and the feature I like the most is summon because I park two cars in my garage, and it's tight. I often have to play tetris in the morning to get to my model 3. But lo and behold, the trial came. Now I can pull my car out without having to move my wife's car. Awesome...

Hi there, First post here on the forum and proud 'co-owner' (wife's car) of a new Model 3. We were somewhat disappointed to learn that creep is not available here in Canada due to the lack of a standalone key fob (otherwise absolutely amazing car). With the most recent software update, I...

Anyone else notice these patterns in public parking lots? (I'm on AP 2.5, V42.4, Model 3 in Chandler). Now compare same location on Google maps... Notice upper right showing construction. Got me thinking, how will the car respond? I assume it will prioritize paths where it won't need to...

There was an article (see link below) that stated Consumer Reports review of the Tesla Summon feature lead Tesla to release a “dead man’s switch” update shortly after. However, many customers expressed their frustrations online, saying the removed ability to summon via key fob severely...

Does anyone know if you can use Amazon Alexa to invoke the Summon feature (back the car out /put it away)?

This is exciting: It makes sense. Now that V9 is using all 8 cameras, it would stand to reason that Summon should start using them as well. I would surmise that this new Summon in the works is the "Smart Summon" promised on the website where summon can move your car around bends. With the use...

Hello everyone. I own a Model S 70 with summon and autopilot (hardware version 1), and something changed in one of the last 2-3 updates which makes start the windshield wiper,so almost every time I summon my Tesla to get out of the garage. I summon the car, then the wipers start, make a full...

Hi all, Just got a S75D and trying to figure out the subtleties of summon + homelink. The question I have is about what determines whether or not the car tries to close the garage door after pulling in and parking. Like many folks, I have a relatively tight fit in the garage, and...

Disclaimer: I know summon is in beta, so let’s avoid the “it’s in beta” responses please :) I’ve noticed on multiple occasions that the summon feature will work the first few times with the app, but after those few times (~1-5), the app will randomly stop being able to connect to the car, no...

Just got the summon update and it is awesome. I used to sweat pulling the car out, but the Model 3 can now do it by itself!

I've got Homelink setup on my garage door and it works fine from my car's touchscreen to manually open/close. I've got summon setup and it works fine from my app. I've updated to both the latest App and the car's software. I've heard that I should be able to control Homelink from my app, but...

Today I used summon to pull out of a tight parking spot, in which the front wheels were in a gutter with an angle into the curb in the front. When I went to summon in reverse, it’s as if the car was in “neutral” first and rolled forward all the way until it hit the curb before it decided to go...

I was playing with Summon, and it works great, though I got an error message. It said Summon cancelled due to hand being over proximity sensor on phone. This confuses me a bit. I understand the car is linked to the phone but I don’t understand the bit about a proximity sensor.

This morning I noticed the following message in my 2017 Model S. “Park Assist Disabled” and then sometimes changes to “Park Assist Unavailable”. I called the SC, they said they would look into it and get back to me. After a few hours I didn’t hear back from them, so I looked over all my front...

This was a first for me, and I don't recall ever seeing anyone having this issue. After driving home last Saturday in a heavy, wet snow storm with large clingy flakes, I manually parked in my garage, offset to one side so I could open the door enough to exit. Normally I just use summon to pull...

I've finally cleared out the garage enough to try autopark and summon. Got homelink set up - great! But the car won't park itself in the garage. The driveway is on a slope, up to the garage - I've seen reference to that confusing the sensors, like it can't see the ground in front of it, maybe...

I park horizontally alongside my garage because my X is too big to fit inside. I leave about an 18 inch gap between the garage door and the side of my X. The other side of the car is an alleyway. I use Summon to back up the X so I can drive my other car out of the garage. This works great --...

I’m a relatively new owner who is a regular here on tmc. Lately there has been so much controversy over autopilot and what the video and Elon promised it would be, that I went back to watch old videos for fun. I’ve discovered that this is not unique. I found videos on supercharging and the...

I attended a car show today, a fundraiser raising money for Jaxon, who is fighting Rohhad, a very rare illness (less than 75 children in the world have it). As Jaxon toured the cars to pick his fav, he saw the Tesla... (video takes it from there) (normally a car show video wouldn't warrant a...

When will AP2 catch up on autopark in parking spot and parallel parking.... can't wait... #34 Tesla Model X Summon at Tight Parking Spot #9 Summon with Key Fob #4 Summon X out of Garage #5 Summon X into Garage #14 Tesla Model X Aligned Autopark at Parking Lot

I started getting an error yesterday that my Key Fob battery is low. This is preventing me from not only summoning from the Key Fob, but also from the Phone App; and it is also preventing me from using AutoPark via double tapping Park button. I pulled both batteries out of both Key Fobs, and...

With summon back again and supposedly some more advanced levels of EAP and FSD coming by the end of the year... are we getting a snake charger soon? In order to do the fully autonomous trip across country demo they'll need to install some at superchargers. I'd love to have one in my garage...

So my HS frosh daughter has an away soccer game this past Friday afternoon. Earlier in the day I had taken my MS for the 1st time courtesy wash at the detailer who wrapped and coated the car two weeks ago. They do this for QC two weeks after the wrap / coat to ensure that all the seams took...

2016 model s 60d HW2/AP2 all the bells and whistles I don't have summon feature on my Tesla IPhone app, and I'm not sure it still works on the key fob?! Has it been deactivated w all the fuss on getting AP rolled out? Anyone can let me know if it's still active or where I can get quick lesson...

Today, as i finished parking on a slight incline (Car facing downward, very slight incline), the car started to move forward at the Summon speed of 2 km/h indicated on the dash, however, the car was in park and no sliding occurred. This same thing happened four times as i attempted to park the...

I've been using the Summon feature via the remote iPhone app for several months to back out of my snug garage and I love it. It's generally worked well, although frequently it won't connect to the car via the app and/or aborts midway through the Summon, which was pretty easy to remedy...

I took delivery of Model S 75D on Friday, September 9. On Tuesday this week somebody came to my office to inform me that my car had moved to the middle of the parking lot blocking the exit. Of course I quickly went to the car and parked it properly. From Tesla service I found that my Phone App...

So the basic question is easy - How exactly does Summon (on a communication level) function? And here’s the longer version of that. I have parking in an underground garage where I live. This serves a total of four buildings with 28 units in total, each with 8 per. When the electrician...

I tried Summon to park my X into garage over the weekend. When I have it set to Narrow space setting, I can summon forward into the 1 car garage without any issue. But when we tried to back up into the garage, the car would actually go half way and stopped. The mobile app actually would report...

Hi, I'm about to purchase a 2014 MS without autopilot enabled, It Does has the sensors. It also doesn't have the supercharger enabled (60kwh) I'm planing to go to tesla and activate both.($5500) I have a question, do you guys know if the autopilot software also include summon? I mean, if they...

Intrigued about using summons to auto-park my MX in single car garage spot. I have the width issue worked out as well as depth and height of garage doors. Problem is that my driveway length is perpendicular to the garage door. I have 26 feet between my garage door and tall hedges on far side of...

I was thinking about this the other day...If policies could accommodate occupant-less autonomous cars, I could see how many households could make do with a single car. From both adults being able to share the same car by summoning it when needed, to the car driving itself to pick up kids from...

Hello everyone, I like the fact summon opens the garage door automatically when the car gets out of the garage, but I don't want summon to close it once the car has been taken out. Is there a way to avoid that? Thank you in advance to anyone!

I unplugged my car this morning and on a whim decided to use "summon" to bring it out of the garage. Its a beautiful 70 degree day, sunny, so why not celebrate the greatest car in the world? Did not go as planned!!! I stood outside in front of my garage door, summoned the car, and the next...

Proof it works: https://youtu.be/tHpTkEsVN70 Sent same link to Tesla for them to see. Just be sure car is aligned to the same angle in the driveway that you want it in the garage. Just as if you were parking it manually.

A few examples of summon and perpendicular autopark...
