I agree. I also don't think Tesla charged anything outrageous for a new tire. My thought was more around, was it necessary, or a plug could have done the job?

@Gucci7 I say it depends. I had a bad flat at 8K and the tesla tech inspected remaining three tires and said its okay to swap only one. 9/32 brand new vs 7/32 used ones. At 22K I guess the old ones are too old to be mixed

I think at this point with all the info we have, it is 50:50

I think the core lesson for me is to always get an opinion from a tire place like Discount Tires before calling Tesla. BTW I asked Costco and they don't plug any Tesla tires, as a policy.

Thanks @dafish are you suggesting I take it to Discount Tire and discuss with them my options? I mean the new tire is already installed so perhaps they can suggest should I put back old one and keep brand new as a spare?

Somewhere I read its 0.5 inch or max 1 inch from sidewall, and as you can see in pic its 1.5 inches from sidewall hence was wondering...

Driving to the office in the morning, my wife's 2023 MY picked a nail, on the rear passenger side. She got an alert on her cell phone around 3 pm, the tire pressure was low - 32 PSI. I have her carry a portable inflator so asked her to fill it to 46 psi and drive to nearby America's Tire (In...

Same here. The problem came back. I called and got service center appointment. I hope there is no bigger issue.

as mentioned by many above... 3rd party apps, Using Tesla App, etc. wakes up the car and it doesn't go immediately to sleep like mobile phone screen. Either ways, 2 percent in 24 hours is not too bad. Every rechargeable battery looses charge on its own.

Update: Tesla service guy (quite technical) called me yesterday and did a remote "re-hand shake" and this solved the issue overnight. BTW, I asked the service guy about Software Re-Install and he quite strongly advocated against it. He said lot of cars got bricked by that process and the...

I am on the same boat. 2024.2.2.1 is stuck at 100% from last three days. Opened multiple service requests with Tesla but no one bothered to contact. Is Reinstall Software in Service Mode a safe thing to do? It pops up so many warnings!

Thanks for clarity. Yes I was talking about Park Assist. It is now available with latest update, although the feature is not very helpful TBH. It certainly needs polishing.

Pretty sure he is reading this forum before going to sleep :p

Tire will be fine. You may get the rim repair done if it bothers you (I wont bother) or new wheel caps.

Now I have it too after latest SW update. Mine is at the stage, where it cries "Sky is falling" all the time :)
