I took delivery of my Model S 85D in Oregon and drove it back to California. There were a few pre delivery issues that needled to be fixed. The steering wheel emblem had bubbles in it, there was a paint chip on the left passenger door, the driver door took excessive force to close, and when I was driving my car back. I noticed a pano roof creek directly above my head and it would happen on occasion. The creeping noise usually happens after about 30 mins of driving.
I brought the car in on 10 Sep to have those items fixed. They were super helpful in helping me schedule a time and to got me a loaner car. My car was ready 2 days later on 12 Sep. They weren't able to duplicate the pano creek noise. Upon inspecting the car, I noticed they patched up a paint chip on the right side and the driver door was not aligned correctly with the passenger door. I noticed the pano creek noise the next day when driving to work. I called the Service Center back and they set up car swap near my house on 13 Sep to drop off and pick up the car. On 18 Sep I received a call telling me they were unable to duplicate the creek noise. They did make the door align better with the door. I picked up my car that afternoon and noticed that the paint chip repair was not that correct color. I mentioned it to them and they told me the new blue paint was not in yet. The next day on Sat. I drove to work and the pano creek noise came back. I took a video of it and sent it to the service manager and tech. No reply from them.
I called last week to schedule another appointment for someone to ride with me again to duplicate the pano creek noise and the next available appointment in on Nov 11. I guess they must be swamped? On my original setup phone call, the lady said she wouldn't be able to schedule that long of a troubleshooting diagnostic drive with one of their techs. I'm also hearing some rattles from their driver door fix, I think I'll bring that up as well.
Overall I'm not too thrilled with Tesla's level of urgency to try to fix my issues. The pano creek noise is annoying enough during my 50 min commute that I've been driving my ICE car to work. At least that car is quiet minus the engine noise. Hopefully Tesla can fix my issues next month after 3 months of ownership.
