Good. Keep on them!I called the dealership and did my level best not to lose my *sugar* because that benefits no one. I told them this is a fine welcome to the EV world and is beyond unacceptable. This will not wait until 10/7. It will get towed tomorrow and handled as a priority. He agreed.
This was exactly like mine. The most I could squeeze into it was 29% after disconnecting and reconnecting the wall connector.Yep. Having it towed to the dealership tomorrow. View attachment 713759
Thanks @Muzzman1. I know they will take care of any battery concerns. I doesn't help my frustration level as this is my first EV and I took delivery 3 weeks ago.I've had a Model S since 2014 and this is my 3rd. I can assure you, it will get resolved, based on my past experience.
I had enough battery to drive to the SC as well. I will have a pointed conversation with the service manager on Monday.This was exactly like mine. The most I could squeeze into it was 29% after disconnecting and reconnecting the wall connector.
I was able to drive mine to the service center since they are only 20 mins away.
Needless to say, you will get a new battery and you will soon be reunited with your car.
I dropped mine off yesterday and I was told it would take a week. I was supposed to get a call today confirming that, but of course, no call.

Do we have an efficiency curve of this kind, e.g. plotting wh/mi vs speed, given a normalized driving surface?At 989 kwhr energy usage my Plaid on arachnids has gone roughly 2900 miles (so 290 miles of range to a full charge on average). Average energy of 341 whr/mile. The car is very efficient up to about 70 mph and then it starts to fall off fairly quickly. I usually travel at 80-85 on the highway, which occurs frequently.
That's pretty unsettling. For the longest time I thought the initial 3 of us were edge cases, then yours came along, and you mentioned that your SC has 3 others. My SC mentioned that they had one other than mine, although I do not know if that one is a refresh cars or not.My car was supposed to be ready yesterday by close of business and got pushed to Monday (SOP for Tesla, it seems). I spoke with the SC today and apparently there are three HV battery pack replacements at the SC. Hopefully this isn't a pervasive issue.
I side with you in that this is more likely a bad batch. But facts are facts. We're all dealing with it. Have you gotten your car back?That's pretty unsettling.

I HOPE this is not a pervasive issue, and I would imagine that it is not. On the forums I would imagine there's a few hundred Refresh owners at this point, and there's 4 of is with this issue. So say 1-2%, seems high, but not pervasive.
No, pack is on back order.I side with you in that this is more likely a bad batch. But facts are facts. We're all dealing with it. Have you gotten your car back?
Wow. My pack was ordered last Saturday and arrived at the SC on Tuesday. Tesla's lack of consistency on this is concerning. Makes me wonder where my pack came from to arrive so quickly and the backstory with respect to yours.No, pack is on back order.
Im told I should have it back the 12th.
I will have been without the car for a total of 3 weeks. I Took delivery Aug 27. So they've had it longer than me when I get it back.
My new pack was ordered on the 23rd.
Maybe a miracle will happen and now that EOQ rush is over they can spare a pack off the line for me sooner. (not holding my breath)
To add insult, Im only a 5 hour drive from the battery factory.Wow. My pack was ordered last Saturday and arrived at the SC on Tuesday. Tesla's lack of consistency on this is concerning. Makes me wonder where my pack came from to arrive so quickly and the backstory with respect to yours.
