100% fixed my ghosting problem. I consider my issue completely resolved.
Didn’t test it to my knowledge, but the techs there are well aware of it. I sent the part number in about a month ago and asked if it was a fixed one, they ordered it. It would have been installed sooner but I didn’t have time when it came in.
Interesting. Our visors are fine after the new windshield. Also, I'm curious which service center are you going to? SLC isn't exactly close enough to "stop by" if you're in Idaho. Portland is even worse.I'm taking my X back to the service center tomorrow as a result of the new windshield but not for the reason you might think. The ghosting is completely gone but I noticed to problems...
1. My voice commands don't work (but calls do). I wonder if there is a separate mic that didn't get plugged back in? At any rate, this should be a simple fix.
2. The sun visors don't attach to the mirror. This one is strange and when I stopped by the service center to show them, they were baffled. The visors have an arch to them. If you turn them horizontal they swing right over and snap into place. If you turn them vertically (to block the most sun), the arch causes it to touch the windshield which pushes the free end down to where it misses the mirror mount. If you swing it across horizontal, latch it, and then fold it down, it pops the mirror/camera trim off.
The first thing they wondered was if the windshield was installed wrong but it looks perfect as does all the A pillar trim and mirror/camera mount. I wonder if the new windshield has a slightly different shape (to solve the ghosting) which requires a different sun visor? I guess we'll find out
If you get a new windshield, check your sun visors before you leave.
Thanks for the reminder to update my location. I moved from Idaho to Hillsboro OR in October so I've been dealing with the Portland service center.
Yes, ghosting has been solved. Anyone with ghosting can get a replacement windshield... if you are persistent enough.
Maybe you want to pause to think, that this is not an easy problem to solve, primarily because of the huge size of the windshield and like nothing else on the market right now. They pushed the boundaries - thanks to Mr. Hubris - and now facing issues that are not easy to solve and may never be solved.jeezz -
we're into this for over 2 years now, on a car costing ~ 6 figures & it's still ongoing. Yep - It's good to be the only game in town.

Did you miss all the posts in the last few months about it being fixed for people? Sure, Tesla isn’t going out of their way to contact everyone and ask if they want it fixed (especially since a large percentage has never even noticed it), or that people getting windshields replaced for other reasons are getting the latest non doubling windshield. But it’s definitely fixed, if you know what to ask for (and can convince/your service manager is willing to give it to you under warranty- I really wish they’d be more lenient here).jeezz -

that does not negate any of the above choices made. Rather, implicitly it proves up Tesla decided choice #3.
yep ... choice #3
Sears analogy - they too, were the only game in town once upon a time - for a long time. Enter your preferred competition here - call it Walmart - amazon whatever ... customers only stay loyal as long as the product/service is the best ballance between cost/convenience/reliability.
Apparently not all people are getting the fixed windshield since digicool just got one with ghosting installed.
