I really overwhelmed with this community support! It shows me, that I am not crazy feeling being ripped off.
For everyone's clarity let me reiterate the timeline and recap my points:
1. 11/15/19 Tesla sold a car to 3rd party dealer via the auction (The auction house almost never takes ownership)
2. Mid-December I purchased the car from 3rd party dealership
The dealer stated the FSDC (@Battpower, Full Self Driving Capabilities) disappeared once he executed the software update jus a day before I took delivery (As he said -he did that as a good gesture (we wanted the best, you know the rest, right?) AND he cited the Tesla system glitch for this disappearance.
3. In January when I transfer the car's ownership to my account, I schedule a service appointment, where I was told that Tesla conducted an audit on 11/18/19 (TREE days later after the legal ownership has been transferred and removed this FSDC opt as result)
4. I called Tesla and requested the Monroney sticker for already MY car.
5. Tesla emailed me the sticker which indicates the purchase of EAP and FSDC at $4K and $3K respectively.
6. I was as many of us under impression that any features/options will be attached to the VIN, therefore I have tried to resolve this matter with Tesla without any success. Another service tech told me, that I would be losing FSDC anyway after the ownership transfer.
7. If I did not pay for this FSDC option and Tesla has rights remove it, what would prevent them to remove any "not-paid" options what I currently have but did not pay separately - High Fidelity Sound, Homelink, Premium Lights, Subzero package, adjustable air suspension, even folding mirror, etc. since almost everything controlled via software???
