Tesla Motors Club
I just picked up my car, and the ONLY adapter I get is a 120v wall plug??? They didn't even have a NEMA 14-50 adapter in stock, so they recommended I buy one online, which I did immediately. The order is confirmed but no shipping confirmation yet.
When I first visited the showroom (a couple months ago) I was told I would get the 120v standard wall adapter, plus my choice of one other NEMA adapter. That made sense. But that was before my order date.
I just had the wall socket installed by the electrician, anticipating its arrival.
I live 12 miles from the nearest supercharger, and with a new car I'm not provided with the means to charge fully overnight??? In fact, when I showed up the car only had 50% charge, and they had no intention of juicing it up before I left. (ICE dealerships always give you a full tank.) Knowing it may be some time before I had my adapter I supercharged on their dime.
Apparently this is new policy. Am I missing something? I'm blown away by how silly that is. If I have to make that 12 mile both-way trip before I get my adapter I'm going to be even more irritated.
And then there's this: I was told as long as my phone was paired, set up as a key, and on, my car would lock when I leave the car with my phone, and unlock as I approach . I stop the car, put it in park, get out with my phone, go to the back of my house, turn off my phone's bluetooth, then walk back to the car. I hear the radio is still on, and the AC is still going and sure enough, the door isn't locked. I can change this from the app, but I try it again and the screen is still on. So now I'm wondering if I'll still have a charge in the morning? Maybe there's something I wasn't told.
First day, bad taste. Love how it drives but this stuff is silly.
