The valet service Tesla offers is fantastic -- they come to your door, drop off a loaner and drive away in your car to get it repaired. It combines the test drive (to see/reproduce issues) and the verification drive (post fix) with the whole service process and is really convenient.
On thing I thought was odd is that on pickup of my car the Tesla valet turned off mobile access before he left my lot. I can see how when they're working on the car they don't want people flashing lights, honking horns etc. But for the valet part i'm not sure how I feel about that. I can't think of a good reason for disabling mobile tracking during the valet part of the process.
I asked the guy when he picked up the car if he worked on them too and he was a bit vague but basically said he was just a valet if that matters.
I figured i'll poll the community and see how people felt about the whole thing.

"They need a mode that shuts off potentially dangerous things while leaving on other things like tracking of speed/location then they can enable that mode at any time."
