Has anyone ended up with a lemon and have to end up claiming it is one? What'd you do? Any tips? I read somewhere that you have to opt-out of something for arbitration, anyone know what that's about? What state are you in etc.? Any tips would be great, I have yet to review my agreements since my pickup isn't until Friday but I just want to make sure I have some background about lemon laws and the process.

Read your MVPA for the info on opting out of arbitration. Generally for those clauses in contracts, you send a letter saying “do not want” with your info on it, and Tesla has a similar process.
The way it was explained to me — and I’m not any sort of lawyer — is that if you opt out of arbitration, then you can still go through that process if you think it will be easier. You just aren’t stuck with that as your only option.

Thanks! What's the benefit of opting out of it in the first place? Wouldn't you *want* arbitration in cases like these?
Step 1.) make sure you opt out of the binding arbitration clause within 30 days of delivery. SERIOUSLY. DO THIS. DO NOT FORGET.
Yes. It’s in your MVPA I believe. You need to mail them a letter. Send it return receipt for your records.

The arbitration clause covers the agreement, so whether you opt out or not for the order agreement, you’ll need to do so (again) for the MVPA. I didn’t bother for the order agreement because it’s a maximum of $100 lost and I’m not likely to take anyone to court over $100. Over $50k, though, is a different story.
