Hi all!
So I've got my '22 LR S for ~a month now and wanted to check in with other owners to see if some of the things I've been running into are normal/things I need to get used to, or issues I should be pushing my SC to fix instead of letting them gaslight me like they've been doing, haha.

- Turning the yoke sounds kinda like semi-smooth paper being moved around, if that makes sense. It's not consistent/at every turn angle so my guess is that it's not working as intended (I would expect it to make no noise and just be smooth, like the 3's wheel or.... any other car). I brought it up to them and they "made adjustments" and they basically just changed where it makes the paper-y noise.
- Regardless of comfort/standard/sport steering, I get way more feedback from the road with the yoke than I'm accustomed to. Even if I have it on something like comfort, going on northbound 101 (for you Bay Area folks) in either of the left-hand lanes feels like I'm constantly fighting the car to keep the damn thing straight so it ends up feeling fairly unsafe/I start getting anxious.
- Car/suspension feel excessively floaty regardless of comfort vs sport suspension modes at all kinds of speeds, but usually in what seem to be fairly flat and straight roads and I end up feeling like I don't have as much control. This in combo with the above makes me scared to drive the damn thing sometimes. My guess is this is literally just how air suspension works and is something I just need to get used to lol.
- Can't open the trunk via button on the car, keyfob doesn't work at all, handles don't present whenever I go down to the car in the morning, solution is to tap one of the door handles so the car gets woken up.
- likely related to ^ but in the opposite direction: car will not stay asleep for more than an hour at any given time. My Teslamate instance shows it constantly cycling between being asleep/awake every hour on the dot, causing a bunch of vampire drain. Turning off Teslamate resulted in the same behavior the next morning + equivalent battery drain, so I'm not expecting that Teslamate is the culprit here.
- When the trunk is open, on the far left/right edges where the trunk liner meets the tail lights, there seem to be massive gaps between the plastic liner and the body of the car where you can easily find a bunch of dirt/debris piled up in there (and, case in point, last time I took my car to the SC they indeed left a bunch of garbage in there ). Attached image is of the right-hand side.
- Is there a known dead spot in the headlights on like the left third/quarter of light? The headlights generally look fine (aside from the terrible blue shift at the top end), but there's like one notch of dead light that's to my left while I'm driving where, it's not a huge deal, but it's enough that I've occasionally needed to double-take small things in that area at night.
