I noticed this the other day with my dog in the back. I manually press the button to turn on the vents in the back.

I know right. This is what I am talking about.At least your back seat sensors work. Mine will only sense a passenger not a child in the car seat. I have to manually turn on the rear air every time. First world problems.
Mine is going in for service for this issue. Tesla did a remote diagnosis which showed everything was fine with the sensors but they just won’t pick up added weight into the car seats in order to activate the rear AC.I know right. This is what I am talking about.
So it is a problem. Ill make sure ill bring this up with my service appointment next week.Mine is going in for service for this issue.

Yes. Since I have TeslaFi, I was able to tell Tesla service the exact day/times that the car seats were occupied and they verified that the sensors weren’t picking up the occupancy.So it is a problem. Ill make sure ill bring this up with my service appointment next week.

LOL. My wife and child are not dogs... Tesla needs to fix this.
I saw a post where it senses the back seat passengers and leaves the AC on. Would like to see if anyone knows anything more about this.
That definitely does nothing to help the situation in my car.There are a lot of ways to do this.
Just tell the passenger to touch the screen when you get out and it turns back on.
That also does not do anything to help the situation in my car.leave your phone or key card in the car. (Like a normal car)
What year is your car? Also, my child in the back can't touch the screen...That definitely does nothing to help the situation in my car.

I just went and got my car and tested this. With me sitting in the passenger seat with my phone and key in the car with me, the instant the drivers door is closed no amount of pounding on the touch screen will bring the car back to life.
Camp mode works of course though. I'm curious if people are repeating things they've read without actually testing, or is Tesla's software set up so that these things really work that differently from one car to the next.

Mines a 2021 and nothing but dog mode keeps it on. My husband's 2018 does stay on when I'm in the passenger seat however. It's not consistent over the years.2019 Model 3

Just use camp mode. I literally do this everyday at least 2-3 times. Just a few minutes ago, I dropped my daughter off... I hit camp, which locks in your current settings (unless you change them), and I took her out of the car, locked the doors... I could see everything was still on... Came back out a few minutes later, and everything was still on....So this probably isn’t safe and my wife would kill me. But a lot of times if I’m dropping my daughter off and I need to run into a place like Starbucks to pick up a mobile order. I’ll close the door get out, close it part of the way so it’s on the first latch but not fully closed. It keeps the AC (including back) and radio running, and the car can’t be driven because the phone isn’t there. It’s not ideal but for short running in works to not interrupt the rear passengers.
Note I only do this if I’ll be gone less then a minute and am in full view of the car the entire time. But I probably shouldn’t as I think I’ve seen enough tv show and movies that start out that way...
edit: the doors are not locked if you do this, they’re still “open” according to the car.
But in camp mode I believe walking away does not lock the car? We always use dog mode when I leave my wife in the car while I run an errand. Why do we need another setting that does exactly the same thing but labelled differently for sensitive passengers?Just use camp mode. I literally do this everyday at least 2-3 times.
