Lol yes I watched so many YouTube videos to set up the car so I didn't look like a fool at Tesla.View attachment 692630
I'm sure someone needs to hear this today... It's worth it I recommend that you watch the tutorial videos a few times over so you're not having to fidget with things as you're driving for the first time. Take your time and configure your car and make sure you're comfortable before taking off. Also, learning how to lock/unlock it is probably the biggest pain at first in addition to the fact that your Tesla app might need to reload every 2 minutes regen isn't as bad as people make it out to be (I didn't test drive so the drive home was my first experience)... All in all it's pretty freaking awesome blinded a few people on the freeway with my gorgeous white seats
Also, shout-out to Cali folks don't lose hope, especially if you're in the bay!
You ordered my build two days earlier than me, and are a few states to the east, so I am stupidly getting optimistic that I'll get a VIN in 2 days. Congrats!Woot Woot .. Got a VIN!!
No - u can only turn the car on with ur phone by specifically pressing the key button on the app. The car doesn’t automatically start via close proximity blue toothQuestion for people with a car.
1. I watched a video today about a guy that started his car and then drove it without a key or cell phone. That is a bit worrisome, but I guess I can fix that with a number code.
2. If I walk around my house and my phone connects with the car will it turn off and on?
Thank youNo - u can only turn the car on with ur phone by specifically pressing the key button on the app. The car doesn’t automatically start via close proximity blue tooth
That's an interesting screenshot, mine doesn't have a "key" icon:No - u can only turn the car on with ur phone by specifically pressing the key button on the app. The car doesn’t automatically start via close proximity blue tooth
Wow, i wish I was even ever given this mythical SA everyone speaks of.My EDD kept moving backwards so I decided to contact my SA via email, I explained that although I knew that he had no control over delivery I couldn't wait indefinitely until Tesla decided that it was time to give me a car. I was really open to consider other options.
He quickly replied that he will call me back with news. During the call he said that he understood and was sorry, they had someone matching my build who wanted to delay their delivery so hopefully he could get me that car.
Couple of hours later I received and email from SA asking to check my account, bingo! Tesla Vision prompt, VIN in account, estimated delivery 8/8 - 8/11.
I know is not the same for everyone but I can't stress how helpful my SA has been throughout the process and was always willing to go the extra mile to make my experience better.
I hope this is helpful for others.
@Midnightpatrol’s screen shot was of the model X while yours is the model 3. While the main screen for the 2 cars is a little different, the key icon is in the controls screen for both cars. My guess is that the key is more prominently displayed for the model X because it does not have phone as key, so it is more likely to use this icon to start the car, while it would be a rare event for the key icon in the app to be used for the model 3.
My god! Happy for you! Congrats! Finally!Just received my vin !!!! I'm dancing right now !!
thank you !! so sorry I ordered week later than you... did you check your page ??My god! Happy for you! Congrats! Finally!
White/Black for meSame order date from Corona, Riverside. My EDD was in September couple days ago, now just updated to 08/07-08/17. What did you order? Mine is white/white.
He got back to me! Looks like I will be a Tesla owner for one night Sunday night! I’m hoping to be re-invigorated at the possibility of getting a VIN soonWelp. Lost another week on the random number generator. September 16 - September 30. I asked my SA if I can schedule another overnight test drive to keep my spirits up. We’ll see if I get a response.
I ordered my Black SR+ on 05/31/21, and just got my VIN# this morning, 9 1/2 weeks later. Since I've been coming to this forum for information, I thought I would come here and share mine. I ordered in Sherman Oaks, Ca.
Woot Woot .. Got a VIN!!
CONGRATS to all the VINs today!Just received my vin !!!! I'm dancing right now !!
The car is never really off. The most it does is to sleep, but it is still technically on. Even the key in the app discussed above is just about giving the car permission to be driven… the car is still in park until someone sitting in the driver’s seat switches it to Drive or Reverse.2. If I walk around my house and my phone connects with the car will it turn off and on?
Not sure what the person in the video was doing. If he had the phone or key card and put the car in drive, then someone took the key card and phone out of the car, yes, I think it would let him drive until he puts it in park.1. I watched a video today about a guy that started his car and then drove it without a key or cell phone. That is a bit worrisome, but I guess I can fix that with a number code.
Hahaha, no VIN yet hopefully soon! Congrats again!thank you !! so sorry I ordered week later than you... did you check your page ??

Ah, thanks, I didn't know there were/are different apps for each model, I'm only seeing one in the app store.@Midnightpatrol’s screen shot was of the model X while yours is the model 3. While the main screen for the 2 cars is a little different, the key icon is in the controls screen for both cars.
