No Garage Door Openeer on Partial Premium Interior

[ilovepie]

I just got my new Model 3, and no garage door Opener and no carpets. Tesla didnt even bother to put a temporary paper mat.

Can someone confirm that there really is no garage door opener? That will suck on a $40K car.

Common Tesla, Not even carpets? If they could just stop wasting money giving cars away, maybe we could get carpets.

Any way to add the garage door opener?

Do you have the Homelink icon in the upper right of your screen? If so that is where you set up the garage opener.

Obviously Elon thinks giving cars to YouTube stars and bloggers like Electrek is not a waste of money.

Are you saying no carpets...like rubber floor, or you saying no accessory floor mats, on top of an already carpeted floor?

Hmm...I'm surprised the Homelink isn't included at all. That comes with most cars in that price range.

The carpets that come with Premium are practically paper.

Order some 3D Maxpider mats.

Yeah, the carpets are nothing special that's for sure. I bought the rubber floor mats from the Tesla store. They're nice and, of course, they say "Tesla" on them. That's got to be worth at least $100 of the price.

Location-aware automatic garage door opener

Just because it doesn't have the "location-aware automatic garage door opener" doesn't mean it has no garage door opener at all. It may just mean it has to be triggered manually. (I'm not saying it does or does not. I don't know.)

FWIW, it didn't in my wife's 2019 BoltEV LT with fast charging, heated seats and steering wheel, and leather seats (added option) that came in at around $39K MSRP (although we got a signficant deal on it). So yes, she's got the good 'ol manual garage door opener in her car (which, to be honest, I actually prefer compared to the Homelink button in her old Volt and my old LEAF that you had to press in for a second or two.

I was thinking the same thing.

 

[kev1n]

with the wording, i would of thought it would just be a manual press garage door opener. thats pretty lame

And in a car completely run by software, the difference between location aware and hitting a button it close to nothing (I know, marketing can always add a charge to anything) It's removing the transmitter that saves the money.

While it indeed comes in many cars this price range, you have to remember that the car should actually be compared to a $25k car in many aspects. It's a stripped down model.
And when it comes to a "car in this price range" why aren't you getting another car in this price range. You want the Tesla because of multiple items that the other cars don't have. So why don't the other cars have the features of the Tesla, because they'd be more expensive.

It's all a matter of give and takes. You'll now have to use that garage door opener on your visor. Is that really a big deal?

This the partial premium model not the base model. My Leaf had HomeLink and it was a little less money.

I just got my M3 SR+ delivered today, no homeland either, called Tesla and they said I should have it (w/o location awareness).
They opened a case number for engineers to push it to my car via software update.

My Jeep Wrangler unlimited didn’t have a garage door opener either... had to use the fob that came with opener.

Hmmm...if that happens you will be the first person with an SR+ to have Homelink. Something tells me you got the wrong answer on that one, but see what they come back with. Who knows.

Yup, today got an email from Tesla staging homelink is it available.
Gotta love Tesla communication break down.

I'd say that half the cars I was comparing to the model 3 before I bought didn't have homelink as standard, and they were all comparable cars (Audi, Mercedes, JAguar, Alfa Romeo, etc.)

Yeah, the carpets are nothing special that's for sure. I bought the rubber floor mats from the Tesla store. They're nice and, of course, they say "Tesla" on them. That's got to be worth at least $100 of the price.

True, the Tesla mats may not be as all encompassing as some of the others but they are cheaper, say "Tesal" on them, and are much better than the carpet ones that came with it.
