Hi everyone, apologies for another thread for wheel vibration. I searched and read the past threads about this but couldn’t get a clear idea.
I have a 2023 Y that I purchase last year. It’s now at 16k miles. I started to notice the slight vibration from the steering wheel, seat and pedal at around 70mph about 3500 miles ago. I took it to a local shop twice for road force balance to try to fix it but it didn’t obviously.
So last month I took it to Tesla SC and they suggested to do another round of balance to rule out. I agreed and it didn’t fix it.
They told me to bring it back and I did. They sent a tech to road test with me and he acknowledged the issue. I mentioned about the possibility of foam detachment to the tech. I believe he unmounted my tires to inspect and rebalanced them again. Due to there isn’t any highway near the SC, I believe they didn’t road test it properly and handed me back the car. The result is it’s still not fixed.
I’m planning to bring it back yet again for another diagnostic and see what else they can do. But before that, I looked up the NJ lemon law that after 2 visits of the same issue within the first 2 years or 24k miles. I can send them a certified mail to notify that they have one more chance to fix the problem. If the problem still isn’t fixed I can file a lemon case with the NJ AG.
Any one has any suggestions on what to have them to check on my next visit or any experiences with the lemon law? The car is mostly smooth until around 65mph. Around 67mph to 80+mph I feel like someone is using a jackhammer somewhere around me. The vibration is also making some droning sound in the cabin. It’s not very pleasant to drive once you noticed it. Thanks.
