Yes - you have to be within fob range of the car. So I stand right beside the rear of the vehicle and back it out of the parking spot.The problem is... it has to be super nearby the car...
I think that it needs an internet connection- could be wifi or cellular. Some folks use summon to get in/out of their garage at home where they could have wifi.Today I tried to back into a tight spot and realized it won’t work without cellular (car has no signal either)
There is a bit of a benefit - when cars are parked too close for you to get in to your car you can use summon to pull it out.The comments on this thread make it pretty clear that there is no benefit to the Canadian summon. Do we have it because of some outdated law? Can we get it changed? It must add to the cost of the car over here. Sorry, I don't have any answers. Can anyone help? No, I can't move anywhere outside Canada.
Sorry, what I wrote wasn't too clear. Summon is really nice, but the Canadian version of summon is not so nice. Summon should work with the fob or the Tesla app as it does in Teslas sold outside Canada.

What is it that you want changed? The requirement that your fob must be within signal range of the car?
As I said, if you read the rest of this thread you'll see others speaking about the disadvantages of our restricted Canadianised summon. A few of us still don't carry a cell phone everywhere, so fob summon, as it works in the rest of the world, makes plain sense to us. Why restrict Canadians?Sure, but I pretty much always have my phone on me and if I am out with the car and not at home then I will have the fob with me. I just don't see what the big deal is - is the issue when the phone is disconnected from the mobile network, like deep down in a parking garage?
Don’t blame Tesla, this is governmental. Ask your MP why your car is being held back.As I said, if you read the rest of this thread you'll see others speaking about the disadvantages of our restricted Canadianised summon.

No one is blaming Tesla; read messages #1 and #12 of this thread. Just saying it would be nice if someone could have our Canadianised summon replaced with the summon the rest of the world gets.Don’t blame Tesla, this is governmental. Ask your MP why your car is being held back.
