Finally got to pick up my Tesla Model 3 Performance!

And then I get informed this turned on at 40 miles lol

Dammit....

Background, Picked it up last weekend and dropped it off at detailer 1 mile from service center for PPF full front and Ceramic coat. Detailer brought it to a shop of theirs closer to me and let me know the airbag warning turned on during the ride home. When I picked it up it went away. After the first acceleration the warning came on.

Some people said it's a bug with the seatbelt sensors sometimes but I couldn't get a hold of support until a few hours later. Scheduled a service apt for tomorrow afternoon and hope they can fix it quick like a loose cable or something. Still sucks since pushes me enjoying this car further back again lol.

The most surprising thing is the call center guy told me I should be ok to drive it. Seems risky they would suggest that given it's a safety system.

Leaving it at service center. Hoping it's just a loose cable so I can finally spend some time with it

Sorry about your luck, hopefully it is nothing big and you can have an overall good experience!

FYI, scheduling an appointment online is way faster currently. Hopefully hold times go down soon.

Actually it was worse. Earliest date it gave me was December 12. Clearly I wasn't gonna wait that long. Called in and got an appt today

Wow, that's surprising. I do think Tesla halted all new hiring etc. during the Q3 crunch. They need to expand support staff asap.

Things that make you go "hmmmmmm". If that's the one and only trigger maybe was having a Ferris Bueller Day?

Surprised they are still holding onto it. I inquired last week when I dropped it off if it was a loose connection after they told me they were diagnosing the problem.

Got a message today that they had no idea which leads me to believe that "diagnosing" could be my car just sitting there while they try and get through a bunch of other cars. Would be nice to have the car to drive around for the thanksgiving holiday weekend though.

Welp got it back today.

Last minute after I bugged them about it, loose or broken seatbelt sensor? I guess it really kind of sat around all friday and through the weekend (they were closed on saturday).

Somewhat infuriating I show up and this random guy is leaning up against my car talking to a tesla employee. I'm surprised they didn't tell them not to do that on a customer car... wtf?

One piece of trim on the left camera is bent and coming loose so I guess they have to fix that and they left the interior filthy of course....

The service work and professionalism continues to not impress after the issues I had to deal with my wife's model 3 bumper fiasco.
