The car is not sensitive in that scenario. It is looking for the Bluetooth signal off your phone as a key. Once it registers it, it unlocks.When I walk past the car with my phone, still sensitive though...

Sticking out a little? Yes. Like your image? No. I trust someone here will post a picture of theirs since I’m not near the car at the moment.So Tesla replaced my window side trim due to it being damaged on delivery. The new trim was installed correctly, no issues there. However, I noticed the weather stripping on the driver door where it meets the top of the window look irregular and sticks out when the door is closed unlike the other doors. Unfortunately, I can't remember if it was like this prior to the repair. Looking at the weatherstripping with the door open I can't see anywhere it looks incorrectly installed. Anyone know if this is "within normal limits"? On the other doors when the window closes in the full up position it "catches" the weatherstripping and pushes it up mostly underneath the black trim. Any input extremely appreciated. I'm a very busy person and don't want to deal with Tesla again if I can avoid it...

I took some hurried pictures. It hangs down just a tad toward the rear door, almost unnoticeable. Same on both sides. My 2021 was the same (give or take within spec, since I noticed the lack of uniformity back then, too). Yours seems more extreme.It's certainly asymmetric from the passenger side which tucks up nicely when the window comes up. Does anyone know how the weatherstripping is installed? It is anchored underneath the black trim piece or is it simply a press fit? Basically, I'd like to know if this is something I can fix at home.
The more I look at it, the more it simply looks defective. I'm beginning to think it was always this way and never noticed it.
Per the service manual, replacing it is quite a lot of work. Trim between doors has to be removed and cameras recalibrated.Just washed, and no water intrusion that I could tell, so it seems to be purely a cosmetic issue. Will have to see if I can "unsee" it and live with it.
Those are all completely unacceptable. Tesla doesn’t give a crap about quality. They’re pushing out cars and basically telling you to take it or leave it.
I’m glad you’re taking it well, but the car never should have been delivered with such obvious defects. Hopefully Tesla can fix everything for you.I'm not that bothered. So far they've been accommodating and fixing things as I bring them up. They haven't been building cars like Ford for 150+ years so I'm not as picky as I would normally be. No misaligned panels or anything TOO serious so I'm okay.
Those are all completely similar to the delivery issues on my car.Those are all completely unacceptable. Tesla doesn’t give a crap about quality. They’re pushing out cars and basically telling you to take it or leave it.
Can attest to this as I had my door gasket trim w/e replaced last year. On the bright side, this is in scope of mobile service. Beware this is one of those things that really separate techs who have attention to detail from those that don't. The trim comes as one giant connected loop that needs like an hour of massaging to get it in just right, which explains all the variances in the fit of this piece across units.Per the service manual, replacing it is quite a lot of work.

I ‘accept’ the minor issues with these cars (4 of our own, multitude of inspections for friends and family) knowing that Tesla has addressed every legitimate unissued I’ve raised. Service (particularly Agoura Hills) has not let us down in that regard for 5 years of ownership.
Stress level is exponentially lower now than for our first delivery.
