Kitten stuck in my Model X's rear bumper!

You have to see it to believe it.

I phoned Tesla service, and will be taking my X to the service center as soon as they open (8 AM EST).

Stay tuned!

Instructions for removing rear bumper cover here.

Confirmation - you can add accessory or towing package after delivery

So on the way to the service center, a thought crossed my mind – I'm assuming they're going to charge me for labor and some fee. If so, perhaps I could talk them into loading the silky smooth update.

The meow is heartbreaking.......if Tesla charges you, I'll chip in.
Please provide an update.

Wow. I better not leave my car oudside at night. So many small animals outside as I'm near the woods......

Any news SUMD ?

If you have the tow package, you could try removing the hitch plate cover

Please post follow-up pics and videos with the rescued kitten!

Ditto. I'm happy to help to defray the cost to get that kitten out.

GREAT NEWS you guys!

They rescued this beautiful kitten that had been trapped in my Model X's rear bumper for probably over 14 hours, gave her water right away, AND one of the rescuers and his family offered to provide her with a new loving home

GO TESLA!

WHAT a day

 

[DiamondHands]

I would have named her Tessie had I been able to keep her

 

[bonnie]

She's adorable!

Not judging, but you drove to the SC with the kitten in the bumper? I'm not sure I would've done that as I would've feared for the kitten's life, lol.

Kudos to TESLA..great rescue story.

My faith in humanity is restored!
