Tesla Model S Console Issue

I had my phone on the console the other day and someone pulled out in front of me. I slammed on the breaks and then drove forward. I got home and it took me 45 minutes to find my iPhone in between the console and the little area under the screen. Was really quite annoying so I understand the complaint/concern.

I wish I had seen this earlier. I just set my gate pass on this surface, and it slid into the twilight zone as I parked :(

It seems to be jammed in an area past the console interior. So far, I have not been able to get it out, but I can feel it pushing against the lid when opened the last inch.

Disassembly starts tomorrow.

There is a convenient cubby shelf where nothing can fall anywhere, above the console and below the center screen. Its perfect for credit cards, cell phones, fast pass, transponders etc. Less likely to scratch the sliding cover as well.

Thank you sir. Once the time machine is completed, I will implement your incredible insight.

If I was offering prescient advice to you, then I would have replied directly to your post. But, I did not.
Your situation is a bummer, but its no reason to be snarky to anyone here.
Good luck recovering your gate pass.
