Yes, fans came on today on my 2016 90D refresh. But I was also sitting in 88degree weather with a warm battery.

How did you find out how many kWh you’ve received? I’d like to know.
My supercharging keeps getting throttled lower and lower, starts at about 45kw and goes to about 15. Really Tesla, 1.5C to 4C???? Clearly a free supercharging slap in our face.
The funny thing is that when supercharging was fast, for those charging while dining or shopping locally it would charge to quickly with idles fees and with a fear of damaging batteries. By making it take an hour + to charge, it’s perfect for dining/shopping, and guilt free for fear of losing range.
So Tesla just screwed over all their travelers with SC congestion just to try and punish free chargers who used to have to limit themselves. Well thought out Tesla.

Interesting development...

"Tesla owner David Rasmussen was among the ones affected, and he got one of the most severe drops we have seen. At the time, he told Electrek:
My 2014 Model S 85 was getting a Rated Range of 247 miles until May 13. Now after the next update, it continued to drop to now 217 miles. This is an 11% drop in 5 weeks. On top of the range loss, the DC fast-charging rate at Supercharger stations has also been reduced. Affected owners are seeing much slower charging sessions. Rasmussen has been plotting the battery capacity degradation of his Model S over the last 100,000 miles or so, and the drop is quite obvious:"

… that is completely unrelated to throttled supercharging speeds, the topic of this thread.

So the settlement is for reducing battery range/capacity?
how do I know if I’m qualified for settlement? I have a P85DL and 90% is 216 miles

I know this is going to be hard to believe, but just because Electrek says something doesn’t mean it’s true, or that you’re interpreting it correctly. The settlement doesn’t cover or address reduced supercharging speeds in any way.
Here is a post from the lead plaintiff explaining why.
Wiki - Sudden Loss Of Range With 2019.16.x Software
Tesla’s data show that 1,743 Model S vehicles in the United States ...57 have had battery replacement. This is quite interesting and the first we got such data (from my understanding) May 2019 to July 2021 = 3.3% battery replacement/failure rate over 26 months or ~1.6% failure per 1 year? That...

Go check the master batterygate/chargegate thread in the MS battery forum.

The batterygate suit doesn’t cover supercharging speeds at all, as covered by my post just a few up.
You are only impacted by chargegate then. Info is still in the other master thread.
Short version is Tesla restored *some* of the charging capacity of effected vehicles.
Wiki - Sudden Loss Of Range With 2019.16.x Software
Lost 20km of max charging within 2 weeks on my S85D. At the 12th of May I was able to charge to 399km at 100% charge. 2 days ago the max charge has dropped to 379km all of a sudden. Temperatures at both charge times were around 18 degrees Celsius. Called Tesla and they’re telling me the car...

It is buried somewhere in this thread. You can also search the forum for “chargegate” tags.
