firstly the Model S is an amazing car and I have been proud to have it since October.
However, my patience is starting to wear thin:
- Day after delivery parking sensors stopped working. This was fixed, but first Tesla was trying to push back on when they had availability on their service center. Seriously? when i get delivery of something i expect it to be working.
- after shutting down the car the compressor/cooling fan makes a whirring/squeaking noise (not every time). having read posts and comments it seems that this is something that is happening to a few others as well. have not yet mentioned this to Tesla service
- when breaking to full stop at low speeds the breaks make a squeaking noise. again seems that something like this is happening not only to my car. telsa has looked into this, but couldn't fully get rid of the problem
- when parking and turning the wheels there is also a lot of noise in the steering. Tesla has taken a look at this and reduced the noise, but not fully. this is embarrassing.
- most recently have had a couple of times when the side mirrors have not opened as I get into the car and had to open them manually (by pressing the button)
- for some time my Tesla app from my phone hasn't connected to the car
- today my wife said that the car was driving, but all the screens were blank.
that's a lot of problems (and they seem to be getting progressively worse) for a car that is less than 4 months old. have others had similar issues or have I just been unlucky? Thoughts on how to approach this with Tesla?
thanks a lot
