Washington State: Model S Plaid/LR waiting room

- Start date
Hey guys, just picked up my car yesterday at Lynnwood Tesla, It was raining pretty bad during that time and didn't really have a chance to do a full walk through. I drove it home and loved it. It wasn't raining up where i live. Thats where i notice a scratch on the rear driver side panel (i'll take a picture when i get home) I made an appointment for it, but wondering how will they fix it? I also notice some scuffs around the back seat and a scratch on the top right part of the yolk. I'll take all pictures later today. My car was missing the trunk floor cover, but had the shelves. They said they made a service appointment for that already and i looked at the invoice and it shows the trunk cover and the shelves. So i'll wait for that service appointment to see what they bring me. I'll do a full walk through with pictures later tonight. Thanks in advance for any input.

Congratulations, I too had paint issues with my car. I have service appointment next Monday to get things fixed at Lynnwood SC. Will provide feedback on everything.

My safety score magically appeared in the app today, even though I am still on the factory build. When I checked this afternoon the menu item was there and the page said it would show the score after my first drive, which it did after a short 3 mile drive.
Made an appointment for these issues. Let’s see how Tesla fixes it for me

I saw this parked when I went there to pick up my white MS. Looks good

Wow you have more paint issues than I do. Unacceptable to deliver cars looking like this. I will be taking my car into Lynnwood SC on Monday.. Will let you know what kind of response I get, and hope they resolve all yours as well.
Thanks please let me know. Because of my work schedule, work trip and personal trip, can’t bring it in to Lynnwood SC until April 23

Either I was lucky or my old eyes don't see the paint issues on my car. Hope the SC sorts out both your paint issues.

Lol. I considered myself brave going from Midnight Silver to Dark Blue Metallic, red would be too much of a leap for me. Perhaps Crimson for my next Tesla in about 3~4 years, about the right time for the paint shop in the US to be updated.

I have interesting conundrum with my new MSLR sitting in my garage next to my wife’s M3. The Tesla app gives my neighbors address instead of mine for the MSLR but gives the correct address for the M3 in the app. Never had this issue with my previous MS, and am unsure how to fix it. I tried rebooting, but that did nothing. Any thoughts on how I might fix this would be much appreciated.

Unfortunately that did not fix the issue. I have my car in for servicing today and have notified Tesla of the problem. Summons is not working, which appears to be related to the location error issue, as the car is not sure where it is and will not activate summons to move my car out of my garage.

Is your car closer to your neighbor? Could be the boundary for the address in the map data used by Tesla runs through the middle of your garage. So it may be a map issue? Also GPS is not 100% accurate by design.

Here are a couple of pics highlighting the problem. The car location relative to circle highlighting our home (garage) where the car was residing. Tesla service scratched their head when I showed them the pics and are going to have to keep the car overnight while they work on a solution.

Curious, if you swap the location of the two cars is your car still incorrect and the other car correct? GPS works using the time for signal to reach your car. It is possible you have a reflection in your garage that is mistaken as a direct signal. Also can make a difference if you park one car forward and the other backward with respect to GPS reflections. E.g. if your garage door is metal or metallic insulation in the walls or ceilings.

To answer your question, yes my MSLR is closer to my neighbor, but this was never an issue previously. This is our 4th Tesla, third MS. Definetly centered on my new MSLR. Hopefully Tesla service will figure it out and fix it. I used Summons to move my previous MS’s out and in my tight garage and I need to have Summons working.

Looks like this may be a broader issue with the new MS, see here:
GPS accuracy new model S Plaid
Greetings all, Just took delivery of a Model S Plaid, have been driving other Model Ss and Xs in the past, and I noticed right away the GPS does not appear to be accurate. The nav pointer is not following the map and is always a bit to the right or the left or in front or in back of the road I...

Mine seems to be OK, but now I am going to compare with the older MS to see how far off it is. GPS has some inherit errors built in, however the two cars should show the same degree of error at a given time.
