looking for electric frunk feedback

[ngng]

for those of you who have an electric frunk installed i am curious if you are still happy with the product. i was really interested in this, but read some bad experiences with excessive 12v battery drain as well as unintentional frunk openings

I love it! I have the Tesla Offer version. Customer support was top notch when I was installing.

I did have my 12v replaced after it was installed, but it seems to have been from age and not the electronics.

Love my Tesla Offer power frunk too, best accessory I have added yet. I use my frunk nearly every day now- it is so much more desirable with power up and power down. I haven’t noticed any problems with 12v system but it’s a 12/2020 car so still pretty new, and I plug it in every night.
The install was straight forward and worked right 1st time, no adjustment. T.O. could change a couple things: 1- reshoot the installation video with at least a candle for lighting, 2- come up with a better method of securing the controller and the release motor. They went in ok but they can’t be too proud of their directions on that.

appreciate the honest feedback. i really want to install one, but i'm still on the fence.

have TO power frunk too on a 19 LR, use it almost every time the X was driven out. 12v is still not yet going out

Anyone know an installer near Frisco TX?

Are there any Tesla aftermarket shops near by?

I have the Hansshow version & it’s worked flawlessly.
Haven‘t yet understood why a kick sensor can’t be offered for it, as with the Model 3
I have a kick sensor for the trunk

 

[Red-X]

Hansshow since 1.5 year, no problems so far. Working nice.

are there any car stereo shops there? If those are even still a thing, they should have no problem doing a power frunk.

Anyone mind sharing the cost for the Tesla offered model with Tesla installation (if that's even a thing) ?

It's often confused but the company is called 'Tesla Offer' and it's not affiliated with Tesla (nor does Tesla install this 3rd party equipment).

looks like they've rebranded

That's interesting, it's now EVOffer. Probably done because of the confusion described in this thread possibly with a legal push from Tesla.

Thanks all

Does anyone know if this voids warranty? Thinking of getting this for my MYP as well.

 

[Genie]

I don‘t see how it could void anything, but I do not know for a fact.
If a frunk related problem developed later then I could see Tesla disputing coverage on that issue.

Altho I love mine I’ve had two near disasters where the frunk auto opened at near high speed. Both involved golf clubs either pressing up against the internal release button or blocking the latch when the hood came down and delayed popping up for some reason.

yikes. would blocking the release mech address problem #1? and re: #2, wouldn't you see that on your dash before driving away? do you still have the unit installed?
