Hi All,
Received my car after waiting for 2 years, 2 months and 22 days. The last few days before delivery were really tough but I somehow found ways to distract myself . The car is really fun to drive and all the folks I interacted with at Tesla were really great. I am still getting used to all the tech in the car and I am fascinated by how well all of it works considering the software is still going through refinements.
All the positives:
- Drive is great
- Regen is amazing, I barely brake
- Auto pilot works like a charm (had issues initially as my car was stuck on the west coast but it resolved itself in a couple of days)
- Small steering (compared to my other cars) feels nice and the material feels really good
- Love the single screen and clean interiors
Issues: I have a few to report and would love feedback from the forum on how to tackle them
- Frunk alignment: I have a mixture of sunken frunk and panel alignment issue. Nothing major unless you observe it closely. When you do it is really obvious
- Bumper Alignment: Again nothing major but one edge is slightly out and you would only notice upon close inspection
- Headlights: One of the headlight protrudes slightly while the other one is flush
- Door: Doors don't always close easily, it needs a strong push (is this normal?)
- Minor Panel issues: Couple of other minor ones that I don't care about
Honestly, if I was buying other cars I would not even inspect many of these things but I spend time reading this forum and checked these items during delivery.
Now I am debating if I should get them fixed or not. Don't want them to mess it up while they try to fix these minor issues. Thoughts on next steps?
BTW, my VIN is 24XXX
