Check received in the mail!

So...it finally happened...didn't think it would. Got a check for about $2300 in the mail yesterday from Tesla. I paid to replace my
computer/lcd a while ago on my 2013 MS. BUT I sold it to Carmax last year! Got a brand new MY long range now delivered in January.
Never thought I would get the $$$$ back! Thank you Tesla!

Woo hoo, congratulations! Hopefully I’ll get my $400 back soon for having my emmc replaced. Like you, I now have a model y.

 

[Ostrichsak]

You got the full amount? I assume this was prior to them issuing the official eMMC fix, right?

 

[chammerbeck]

Yeah, full amount.....completely blew my mind I actually got a check. I also got the cellular upgraded too with the replacement. BUT only negative was I ended up with really bad yellowing on the edges fairly soon. I had mine done a few years ago.

One question. Did you ever get any confirmation from Tesla that your reimbursement was approved prior to receiving the check. Other than the initial "we got your email" autoresponse, I have yet to hear back about mine.

Yeah, this interests me as well! I never heard anything after the initial automatic response. A friend filled the form the same day, and got a negative reply in under a week! So I have a bit hopeful feeling about the quietness?

Yes I did not receive a negative reply either, so I am hopeful as well! Only Tesla would do business this way.

They hit me up directly on their own.
