Tesla has not registered the car and temporary tags expired.

When my temporary tag/plate expired, I called the main Tesla number and they sent a message to the location where I picked the car up (outside my state for me). I got an email late that same day from someone at that location with a PDF attachment that contained a new temp tag, I printed it and stuck it over the original tag with clear packing tape.

The same thing happened to a coworker that got his car a couple of weeks before mine, but he was just driving it with an expired plate. I told him what I did, he did the same thing and also got a PDF emailed to him with a fresh expiration date.

We both got our real plates a few weeks later, both leased cars if that matters.

Almost happened to me too. I did not receive my license plate 2 months into the ownership. I called DMV to find out why they are not sending me the license plate. They told me Tesla did not pay the fees. I reached out to Tesla and they told me to send them the loan doc (they should have asked me for this when I took the delivery). Once I did, I guess Tesla paid the fees and gave me the license plate number in 2 days and the DMV sent me the plate shortly after.
