Our S 90D from December 2016 didn't have rear seat sensors and wouldn't indicate if the seat belts weren't in use. Our S 100D from March 2017 did have seat sensors. I'm guessing your car was built after December 2016.They must, as it tells me if rear seat passengers don’t have seat belt buckles. Only warns if someone is sitting there.
Even the wind all the way down hold for 3 seconds on each individually thenThe issue with the windows up notification for me is that it says windows are open even when the windows are up. I haven’t seen any calibration method that actually works.

Well, all I can say is that my 2015 Model S could not even roll down the windows until a year or so ago when the "vent" feature was added to the app. At least now the older cars can do that to help with pre-cooling (and it makes a huge difference in how fast you can cool down a car that's been sitting in the sun!).stupidest thing i've ever seen
It’s strange how we’ve become conditioned to bitch and moan about features that weren’t present on the car whatsoever when delivered because the complimentary addition doesn’t live up to personal expectations.stupidest thing i've ever seen
For the older cars, including my 2015 model, I tend to feel that the Model S was Tesla's first car designed from the ground up, and for a first attempt they did a damned good job! Consumer Reports (in 2014, I think) called it the best sedan they had ever tested! So I accept that some things are not what I would have liked. Plus, I could see improvements in my car compared to the 2012 model (the cold weather package is one of the major examples), and other changes were provided by software updates even after I received the car. Yes, I would have liked adjustable seat belt anchors but the belts seem to fit me OK. In any case, I knew what the car was like before I ordered it, from several test drives and lots of time in the showrooms. So I accepted the compromises.When one buys a $100k car that creates certain expectations. When that person discovers that reality does not match expectations they will start to complain.
Case in point: my “cheap” 2006 Audi S4 did have the roll up and down function through the remote and my expectation was that a more luxury, almost twice the price car would also have it. Naturally, I did not expect more expensive car to be less “luxurious” and didn’t know that, in addition to not having the roll up windows, Model S does not have adjustable seat belts, the defogger is a joke, the UI is a mess, changing the cabin filter or 12v battery requires to disassemble the front of the car, it does not have rear camber adjustment, it has a design issue with front half axels… I guess I (and many others) was naive not to check those things. Now, I know that Tesla is technologically very advanced but not luxurious car and I am at peace with that, except for moments when a new UI design crazy update hits me.
Nobody paying any attention would accuse or expect a Tesla to be a luxury car. Just because two things cost the same does not mean they’re comparable.When one buys a $100k car that creates certain expectations.

Yet, it is marketed as a luxury car which, again, creates expectations for more than just “OK”. It is certainly not on the level of BMW, Audi, MB, Lexus, etc. craftsmanship. Definitely technologically more advanced but there are quite a few “cheapo” things that remind me of a basic rental. It is obvious that they cut corners for cost reduction which may be fine for the base model 3/Y but should not be the case for the “top of the line” S/X.Nobody paying any attention would accuse or expect a Tesla to be a luxury car.

They could potentially strangle a dog (or child) if someone closed remotely without being able to see the car. The auto reverse won’t necessarily prevent some injuries.I don't imagine any good reason
