Both vehicles were just over 8 years old, but had less than 90 K miles. I was told that hybrid batterie vehicles should be driven daily which these were not driven. One we purchased used, with very low mileage, and the other was handed down to us from my in-laws. Both of their batteries went...

Yesterday, Tesla service asked me install an updated version, which was also numbered 2023.6.9. This did not solve the issue. I am also getting 'Autopilot unavailable' warning as well. I'm wondering if I should recalibrate the cameras.

I wholeheartedly agrree. We've owned four Prius vehicles. They are very complex and still require maintenance associated with ICE vehicles, with the exception of brakes which we never replaced. However, two of our Prius' batteries failed at under 90K miles just a month after the warranty...

Installed update to 2 week old MYP. Just submitted a service request which was set up as a mobile service visit.

Mr. Z, I hope there is someone nearby keeping an eye out for you. Perhaps you and your bother-in-law can go play golf or some other activity that provides another source of frustration. (Just kidding of course). I keep an eye on this thread hoping to read good news from some of my favorites on...

If you ordered the MYP just to get earlier delivery, I think you're going to continue to second guess yourself and you'll be miserable. Even after learning today of the 'new April 18 IRS guidance date', I am very happy that I chose the MY P for reasons that I shared with you in an earlier...

Wow, those savings are incredible! Nothing like that offered here in AZ. But, I'm still loving my MY P. However, I decided to forgo PFP and apply the ceramic coating myself since I spent $4k to upgrade from the MY LR.

I wonder if the guidance will be posted in either or both of these two pages, IRS Advance Notices or IRS Bulietins .

I first asked the SA via text if making the change would likely speed up delivery. The response was the chances are good since MY LRs are in much higher demand than Ps. I made the change to my order online. I then sent a brief text notifying them of my change and thanked them. I received no...

Sorry to hear that. Perhaps you'd have better luck if you're willing to accept another color. You might ask your SA if that would help. I know a guy (also in Phoenix area) who ordered his P in MSM and just received his car this past weekend in under three weeks. I was shocked. Don't mean to...

If the M3 loses the federal tax credit, Tesla may have to reduce prices on that model in order to lever demand as many people may delay due to anticipated 2024 refresh. If the MY retains full federal tax credit, I wouldn't be surprised if Tesla increases the price of the MY lineup by $1K or...

I've had my P for one week and absolutely love how its smooth acceleration and handling. I love feeling the road as opposed to the lumbering, bouncy ride of my previous vehicle, a 2013 Honda Pilot. The roads that I drive in Arizona are very well maintained. Therefore, the wheel/tire setup and...

Such sad, under-informed, pitiful behavior from angry little people who form their beliefs from popular culture talking points. I've seen this type of aggression directed toward many different vehicles, including Prius, BMWs, Porsches. If this happens to me while driving, I'll instruct Telsa...

You are very perceptive - recently retired after long career in software development with latest role as product manager for several software vendors. As you pointed out, things are often more complex than first meets the eye.

I think it would be useful for Tesla to enable the selection of other secondary choices you would consider. When an 'in inventory' unit is build it would trigger an automated text/email alert. The user could then navigate to a web page that would have units matching meeting their original...
