I've done some work adding the Meijer and Aldi parking lots and entrances to OpenStreetMap so that hopefully by the time this charger is online the in-car navigation might know how to get there.

In addition to Mapbox and Valhalla getting some amount of data from OSM, Smart Summon appears to respond to changes in OSM when people fix routing in parking lots and properly categorize roads and parking aisles: Tesla Owners Can Edit Maps to Improve Summon Routes - Tesla Motors Club
Owning a Tesla is a “Learning Experience”. I thought I knew how to drive a car before my Model 3. Now, every week I am learning something new and often, not always, useful about driving the Model 3.
I wish I knew where the map speed limits came from so I could petition for corrections...
I went through Esky yesterday and drove through the Meijer's parking lot. Still no sign of any construction or any hint as to the location of the superchargers. Let's all email Tesla to give this one some priority!

I see North Dakota chargers are opening up. It looks like the UP will soon officially be the last route to open up in the continental US. Who do we e-mail?
I would email or tweet to Meijer. The vast majority of superchargers in MI are at a Meijers and the permit for Escanaba is for a Meijers. Even better, find someone who knows someone at Meijer.
The "official" place to contact is supercharger[@]tesla.com, but the last time I contacted them about the Esky SC I got what appeared to be a canned non-answer. Maybe if enough of us send an email someone will notice that we're the last corridor in the country to get complete superchargers!
I’m writing to Meijer’s. https://help.meijer.com/s/contact
They’ve been very very good to Tesla in Michigan.

Now with the North Dakota route open, I seriously doubt that there's any two supercharges in the lower 48 that could have the trip distance reduced anywhere near 372 miles by opening single a new path of charges, and in the this case, it's only a single charger. Even a northern Montana route will only save 216 miles from Glendive to Shelby, and that's cutting off a lot of land.
FWIW I tried both [email protected] and through my account and didn't get a reply. Strange since they normally reply a useless canned response.
Anyone have luck contacting Meijer? I talked to someone at Meijer years ago but she was far off on her estimated completion time.

I got a response. I think they might act.
“Thank you for contacting Meijer regarding Escanaba Store and Tesla Superchargers. We value your opinion, and always welcome your suggestions.
Meijer continually strives to find new ways to improve our customers’ shopping experience. Your concern will be forwarded to the appropriate department at Meijer and we will certainly take your feedback into consideration as we plan for future projects and enhancements.
Thank you again for taking the time to write, and for shopping with Meijer. We appreciate your business.
Sincerely,
Carla
Meijer Customer Care“
Too late, I own a Tesla, I‘m ever hopeful.
But yeah, most a canned response, But if forwarded to a “appropriate department “, it could help enable a Meijer’s Supercharger response.
