Hi all,
Long time reader, first time poster. I just picked up my first Model S yesterday (car details below).
For the most part I didn't have any noticeable issues except for one that I would consider rather major.
In numerous areas, my leather was creased/cracked really bad. In one area on the passenger side dash, it was probably cracked (all vertical) 30 times in a four inch wide area. Cracks is honestly the best way to describe vs. creases.
Tesla delivery took a picture for the file, but I somehow didn't. I know this thread is nearly useless without one, but I immediately took my car from delivery to the body shop for a full wrap and tint. When I get it back this upcoming weekend, I will add photos.
Anyone else have these issues on their car? I don't think these types of severe creases should appear ever on the dash or doors, but certainly not on delivery. It's even more odd to me because I thought the white seats were "fake" leather. I'd think stretching issues on install, etc. shouldn't be an issue, but I could be wrong.
Tesla didn't have much for me yesterday, but said they would do some research and follow up.
I get concerned mostly because it could be a major dash replacement in order to fix it. That always gets a bit iffy from my past experience with dash issues in other cars (mostly BMW). They often messed something else up when fixing the dash.
