Response from Tesla service regarding yoke steering wheel peeling

[cbdoc]

Not sure if they're planning to charge me or replace for free, but apparently they're not ready to replace...

Thanks for the info. I am also following two or three other yoke replacement threads.

Im trying intermittent application of aerospace 303 protectant in hopes of preventing yoke material deterioration. My XP is only 7-8 months old, time will tell!

My 2022 MSLR started with a small pimple right at the top of the left bat horn about a year and a half in of ownership. It has to be reaction from the sun. The right bat horn is handled a lot more. Try something that gives UV protection.

Nice. Is this installed on your car?

Also, look at the bottom of the air bag, the horn is in the middle! TechNOking said back in the fall of 2022, all hardware was there for center horn just waiting for software, that was not true.

Atleast it is now with this change. Hope we can all get it.

Quick update. Tesla mobile came in and replaced the yoke. I opted for a wheel instead and work was done under warranty. I gotta admit I’m so relieved to have the wheel. I got used to the yoke, but there’s no question for me the wheel is way more practical/comfortable/safe.

Did you get a center horn button on your new steering wheel?

Nope. I asked for it, they didn’t deliver.
