The point of free roll is that it's supposed to stay in neutral even after you exit the vehicle.

Has anyone figure this out yet? The car wash that I used to go to put the cars on roller tracks and gets hand wash from there. I’ve been hesitant to take my Tesla there because I don’t know how to keep the car in neutral after exit! Lol. What if I put my car in tow mode?

You would need to remain in the Tesla vehicle when using Car Wash mode with Free Roll (this mode essentially shifts the Model Y into Neutral.) The Tesla Model Y will automatically shift into Park if the Tesla Model Y detects that you are not seated in the driver's seat.

Free Roll specifically enables the car to stay in neutral when exiting the vehicle.

"For automatic car washes with conveyor belts, the Free Roll option shifts to Neutral and prevents the parking brake from automatically applying if you leave."
