Agree with everything. After the string of issues with our P85 I was ready to burn Tesla to the ground. Starting with the fact that they ripped off every 85 owner (the car NEVER had 85kWh of capacity) then the string of broken promises (Wi-Fi hotspot, onboard music storage, etc), in and out of warranty replacement of numerous door handles, out of warranty screen replacement due to bubbles, culminating with a problem that prevented one of our doors from opening that took 3 ranger visits to correct (each a month apart). There are more but you get the idea.I NEVER thought I'd say this, and for some of you here who been watching me post for years and have seen how many times I have been called a fanboy, but I really hope traditional automakers get their act together on EVs quickly so I never have to buy another Tesla again... That's honestly how I feel right now. As I said in my other thread on this (US Bank end of lease), I will not be recommending anyone I know buy a Tesla for the foreseeable future... I'm pretty sure my neighbor canceled his order after hearing my story the other day...
I'm sure they are aware. But they have no choice but to dance to Wall Street's tune. Without a steady stream of funding from Wall Street Tesla would be dead in months. So Tesla has to put up the numbers that Wall Street cares about. And Wall Street only cares about how many cars were produced and sold, not customer retention. Wall Street also cares about cash burn rates which is why Tesla is pulling the OP's free SCing along with a myriad other things they promised to do. My Ranger told me they laid off most of their warehouse staff and the last time he checked one of the warehouses was 2,800 orders behind. They have the parts, there just aren't people to ship them out. Tesla is literally living quarter to quarter until they can get on top of M3 production. The hope is that once they get a handle on that they'll have the cash flow to bring customer service back up to the level it needs to be.Wow. I didn't realize there are several out here who feel as being treated unfairly as I feel now. Actually pretty scary to see how lacking Tesla is treating existing customers. As well known in Marketing, and a principle I follow as a project manager for commercial products: You should ALWAYS spend the most effort to keep your existing customers, instead of focusing on getting new ones. If you do just that the latter, you are going the wrong direction. With all that said, yes the Tesla is a GREAT car, the SA who helped me with my first Tesla was/is great, and I really hope management gets to their senses about this. I really think if higher management knew about this, they would recognize how unfair this is, and would immediately correct it to show they can keep their word and make it right. The problem is, I don't know a way to make higher management aware ...
Again, for me its the principle: I bought a Tesla, and as part of that agreement I got the assurance -in writing no less- that I could buy ANY new car in the future, and free supercharging would be carried over to the new car.
...How long did you assume that offer was good for? Forever?"
...nasty place without trust.
I'm 99.9% certain this is not true.Without a steady stream of funding from Wall Street Tesla would be dead in months
First off, let me say that I have no position AT ALL in TSLA. I am simply a customer and have been for a very long time. But I know how this stuff works.I'm 99.9% certain this is not true.
You can trust that if you are slow and not taking an offer quickly enough, it might change at any time.
An offer is not a contract.
An offer can change at any time until you accept it.
To accept it means you paid for it then it's locked in as a contract.
You never rejected the offer but you didn't buy new S or X to seal in the offer timely before it changed.
you would expect them to honor the transfer of the free Supercharging to the next owner, forever. It’s confusing. Tesla should just give you the free Supercharging on your resent purchase to make up for being so ambiguous. It would cost them very little. Tesla is being stupid on this
Now here I'm a little confused, as it sounds like you read it and ignored it. If you noticed this before you ordered a new car then you should have followed up to be sure. If it was brought to your attention after you ordered, then it is unfortunate but understandable.I figured it was in error and didnt even pay attention to it until I became aware that in my new Tesla order free supercharging was not mentioned.
