Turn off Automatic Door at Home

[gjunky]

We have the automatic opening doors feature turned off on both the old and new Model X for the same reason. As soon as you drive in the garage with the other car, it opens the door all the way just right when you pull in.....

Having this as an option to be turned off for home location would be great as the automatic doors are a nice feature that I had to turn off 6 years ago....

I agree very annoying, but shouldn't it eventually auto-close itself after it opens? I have a MY and plan to park my MX right next to it. I constantly go back and forth through my garage with my phone in my pocket. I anticipate this happening to me A LOT.

Yes, it will auto-close but without first risking damage/ding when it opens.

Happened to me when pulling in (no hit) and backing in a Model 3 (X door hit the 3s side mirror).

I finally disabled auto door function, smh.

My garage is too messy at the moment to park a second car (it would either be my S or my 3) in the adjacent spot, but even with one car in the garage, it's mildly dangerous. Just walking back and forth, the doors auto open and a few times I've walked right into the door. The last time it happened, I was carrying my son as I walked by and the car unexpectedly opened the door and I bruised up my hand when I walked right into the edge of the door. That's when I finally disabled it.

Spoke to service manager at local service center. He said he has seen the behavior and it is annoying. Suggested as many of us as possible write to [email protected] and maybe if enough folks write for exclude option, they could implement it. He said that's the only way to get Tesla's attention, or tweet to Elon. That's customer service I guess.

Dun.

When I got my first Model X in 2016, the first thing I requested from tesla support and tweeting EM was to exclude my home when “Walk-Away Door Lock” is enabled, because I don’t need my car locked in my garage. It wasn’t until 2020 (having my 2nd X for 2 years) the feature was finally added. Good luck with your request!

Finally a fix at 2022.44.25.1

Finally! Although we've had it disabled for so long, I'm not sure if we want to enable it again.

This is good. I’ve only had this happen a couple of times and I just let it auto close. In my experience with the phone key, the auto open only works about 60% of the time anyways and only ever on the drivers side, never the passenger side.

Awesome. Maybe our posts and emails to Tesla were finally listened to. Hope it comes out soon in public branch and FSDBeta branch too.

Look at the bright side, how many car manufacturers can change the features of your car with a software update. Gotta love the capability. Glad to see this nuisance was addressed for many.
