    Install automatic front & truck - customization.

    Hi everyone! Anyone located in Indiana know a place where they will install automatic fronk & trunk? Or I'm assuming this is something that we need to buy the kit and DIY it? I've been looking online for a shop that does this, but unfortunately I have not ran into luck besides PPF...

    Trunk latch - How to repair

    I have a 2015 Model and when I am loading- the trunk stays open a long time and the rear can get pretty full - the latch breaks. The trunk latch no longer locks. I have been to Tesla repair many times. This last time I had an appointment on Tuesday but the Saturday prior I had a wheel swap...

    Trunk Overloading

    I recently did a lot of terrace work at my house and was using my M3 to haul the sand bags and 3/4 rocks bags. On the heavier load i did (12x30kg (66lbs) in the trunk + 2x 30 kg rear seat + 4x 9kg in the frunk and myself 95kg) the car was very low on its springs :D I do know that the towing...

    Trunk hatch scrapping side when opening

    Has anyone noticed this? When I open my MY trunk, it looks like the plastic light/reflectors on the hatch touch the passenger rear lights and makes a sound like it wants to get stuck. You can also see the hatch move sideways when this happens. This does not happen when I close it. My guess is...

    Model 3 Trunk Button Stopped Working

    Two days ago the physical button on my Model 3’s trunk randomly stopped working. I can still open the trunk via the phone app or the car’s screen, but the physical button on the trunk doesn’t work in any circumstance. And it doesn't seem to have anything to do with the Bluetooth phone key — it...

    Rear Ended. Best Options on Repair?

    I was just rear-ended in San Francisco in my 2019 Tesla Model 3 (trunk and rear bumper damage), and this is my first accident, so I'd appreciate any advice/help. Unfortunately, I only got the driver's license + insurance information from the driver and not the owner of the vehicle, so my...

    Removing trunk side panel

    I recently had a mobile service visit to address some fit and finish issues. One issue (that wasn't fixed) required removal of the tail light assembly. To do this the tech had to remove the side panel in the trunk. I just noticed today that the light on that side is out completely (no turn...

    Don't do what I did

    I picked up my Y on Friday and drove it home without incident. I pulled into the garage and congratulated myself on not getting into an accident on its first trip. I then opened the hatch and watched in horror as it hit the open garage door! I almost had a heart attack, but, miraculously...

    Trunk opening very slowly

    Lately, I've noticed my trunk opening slowly. Most of the time it opens. Today it stopped after it went up about 12 inches. Nothing was restricting it to make it stop. I could manually open it the remainder of the way. When I pushed the button on the trunk to close it, it closed...

    Replace power strut liftgate

    Hi there, the automatic tailgate broke on my 2013 P85. The latch was still working fine. I replaced the power strut with a new one I got directly from Tesla. To replace the strut is pretty straight forward and is done in a few minutes. Unfortunately it's not working correctly. It opens only...

    Taking 3 day old Model Y for repair, and $100 Uber credit per day!

    Received Model Y on Monday via their new contactless delivery. It was fairly painless, but issues with the car were found and the only thing I could do is to schedule a service appointment. With you guys suggestion, I used the mobile app to schedule an appointment on April 1st (not a...

    Trunk issue

    I made an appointment and brought my X in for an issue with the trunk not cinching. They fixed it but it started again so I scheduled another appointment to repair it again. Before the scheduled appointment, the trunk could not close completely on the driver’s side, cinch and lock securely at...

    Model 3 - Black bumper cover & trunk lid for sale - minor damage

    Had a minor rear end collision and the body shop decided to replace my rear bumper cover and trunk lid instead of fixing (the local shop here does only high end cars and states they that is their preference). The damage is really fairly minor so I thought someone might want to purchase? I'm...

    Is this a defect (Crack) or per design in M3 Rear Trunk ceiling?

    Hi All, I was looking at the ceiling in the rear trunk of my new 2020 M3 and noticed something funky in the metal ceiling cuts. Do you see this in your M3’s as well? Or is this an issue with mine where they cut it and then tried to glue it back together? Please see attached pics.

    Easiest way to prevent large stuff from sliding around trunk?

    My main trunk area is generally empty except for my wife's wheel chair. The issues is the wheel chair slides around the trunk when I accelerate and worse, when I decelerate it slides into the rear seats. Has anyone come up with a solution for this? Do the trunk liners provide enough...

    Trunk separator?

    I'm looking for some kind of net or piece of plastic that compartmentalizes the trunk. I'm not looking for a "trunk organizer" that is simply a folder box. I need something that will stop sizable heavy equipment from shifting around in the back and scuffing up the trunk plastic (the part...

    Bodyshop recommendation SF East Bay

    I had an unfortunate altercation with a loading dock. Reversed slowly while parking but I and the rear sensors missed an overhang and now my trunk is crumpled. I’d appreciate any recommendations for bodyshops in the East Bay (Oakland, Berkeley etc). Many thanks.

    Model X - Trunk Rattle Solved

    I have a 2016 P90DL. I recently had a new rattle come up that was driving me nuts. It sounded like a piece of plastic vibrating at a high pitch, anything over 60mph would make it consistent, and loud. In my trunk, I found a piece of plastic (not sure what it is for), but taped it over this...

    Automatic Trunk/Frunk

    Has anyone replaced their OEM struts for stronger ones so that the frunk and trunk open automatically once you pop them? I did so with the trunk, but haven’t with the frunk yet. Thinking about it, just seeing if anyone has feedback due to the frunk being thin aluminum. Great having the trunk...

    Seeing paint flakes in trunk - anyone else?

    I'm seeing some occasional paint flakes in the trunk. They appear to only be on one side of the trunk, and oddly they are red (color of the car). Most of the underside of the panels that I've seen in there are not painted (except for some overspray). It's hard to see in there (stupid...

    DIY cargo mats?

    Thinking to DIY the trunk and frunk mats. Any suggestions on the rubber sheet material to buy? Objective is to buy rubber sheet, cut it to trunk, frunk and bottom small trunk shapes, and the total cost should be cheaper than the market ones. Thanks!

    Did Tesla Improve Trunk Struts? (Easy to close now...)

    I noticed with my new Model 3 that the trunk is actually MUCH easier to close when compared to my previous Model 3 and also the many I've seen in showrooms....its a very noticeable difference....I can definitely close it with one hand using the inner handles/grips.... I recently got a Model 3...

    TuxMat Trunk Set, Nice !

    I ordered these about 2 weeks ago. $250-ish USA. 3 mats. Main Trunk, Lower Trunk and Frunk. No picture of lower Trunk. I left the carpets in. I wanted maximum "noise insulation". I think they help with tire noise just a tad. Every bit helps. Combined with sunscreen, it's feeling pretty good...

    Trunk trying to close on its own?

    Just got our new Model X 100D last night. Today, we went to the grocery store. Auto locking is set. We opened the trunk to get groceries out, and I got out of the car with the key in my pocket. While leaning into the back to get the groceries, the trunk door started closing onto us, and hit my...

    Making the Model 3 trunk lid close more easily

    I found the trunk lid on our Model 3 required quite a bit of force to close. I wondered if this could be improved, and found the answer is yes! Apply a few drops of light oil to all of the pivots (yellow arrows). I like Zoom Spout, but 3 in 1 or any light oil should work. Apply a drop of light...

    My 3 will be 2 weeks old tomorrow. We took a longish trip to Memphis this weekend, so had many 'firsts' with the car. One that ultimately caused no harm but did cause some significant anxiety for several minutes was in regards to the rear trunk. What apparently happened is this. We had been...

    Strange error messages (or lack of)

    I had a strange problem with my Model 3 last weekend. I was going on a short trip and I loaded up the trunk. Then about 20 minutes later I got in the car and headed to the freeway. After 5 or 10 miles I engaged the cruise control, but I got an error that said (something like) "cruise is not...

    Water entering from bottom of trunk, strange screw piercing trunk?

    We recently had flash flooded roads here in the Philly area. I was driving through some serious (inch or two) but not life threatening areas of roads where the water was moving quickly. This resulted in a lot of splashes up against the underside of my car, I'm sure (probably worse than going...

    Tesla App - Add Trunk Open to first screen

    When opening the Tesla App, I have three options across the top - HVAC, Frunk, and Lock/Unlock. I’d much prefer to have Trunk there than Frunk. Ideally add it as a 4th option. Or allow us to customize what we want as top options. As is, to open the trunk, I have to hit Controls then the...

    Model 3 Trunk Issues

    I love EVERYTHING about my model 3, except the trunk... seriously, it’s awful. I don’t know if it’s just my M3, or if everyone is experiencing this, but I have to SLAM the trunk SO HARD for it to actually close. I had to try 3 times last night to get the car to register that it was fully closed...

    Wouldn't it be nice...

    if Tesla would let you customize the "Home Screen" a little. For example, I'd like to put garage door and rear trunk buttons there... and get rid of buttons that I never use. Anyone else, who's used a smart phone within the last 10 years, feel the same way?

    How much does the trunk open?

    I tried to search but couldn't find anything concrete. I am wondering how much does the rear trunk open at the highest point with the high suspension setting? Just trying to figure out if I need put some sort of a padding on the roof in case the trunk opens taller than my garage roof. Thanks!

    How to set the liftgate to fully open?

    I believe Tesla has recently changed the software causing my FWD and Liftgate to only open to a 3/4 position. The FWD allows me to set an "open fully here" option, but there is no such option for the liftgate/trunk. I tried the procedure outlined in the manual "put the door at the desired...
