    Can a Tesla car be damaged if it is transported in an inclined position?

    I am planning to ship my Model 3 overseas and I have two options: a 40-foot consolidated (shared) container, or a 20-foot exclusive container, which costs $1,000 more. I've researched online and found images of shared containers. It appears that they often use the R-Rak racking system, which...

    White material forming on the windshield..

    My 2020 Model 3 has recently formed white material on the windshield (see photo). I was able to kinda remove it using a razor blade on the windshield from the inside. I keep my interior very clean, so I do not think this material was from an external source. Is it possible that it is coming...

    Does Autosteer work in US-imported cars outside the US?

    I plan to ship my model 3 from the U.S. to Saudi Arabia. My understanding is that Autosteer (lane keeping) only requires clearly defined lane lines to function. So availability of navigation, maps, sim, etc should not affect Autosteer if my understanding is correct. Can anyone please confirm or...

    Do you unplug another EV if its charging is complete?

    I live in an apartment complex where there are free charging stations to its residents. The charging station can indicate whether the car its plugged into has completed its charging session. On two separate occasions, my model 3 has recorded the same resident unplug the charging cable from my...

    Have you had this issue fixed? (Rear door harder to open)

    I took delivery of my 2020 Model 3 three days ago (long range AWD, red exterior, white interior, 19" sport wheels, FSD). Upon inspection I immediately noticed the rear left door is harder to open than all other doors in the cars. This is the second time it happens to me! The first time was in...

    Do tax rebates apply if you lost your car?

    My insurance declared my Model 3 a total loss (repair costs are too much). I live in Colorado where there is $5000 tax rebate from the state. Will I be eligible to get this rebate next year even though I only owned the car for two months before the loss accident? Also does the state rebate...

    How much did your premiums increase after total loss?

    My insurance has determined that my Model 3 AWD is a total loss because the repair cost + salvage value is greater than the market value of the car prior to the accident. My claim (light pole side collision) will end up costing the insurance only around $30K, since the car has high salvage value...

    Best Body Shop in Colorado?

    I sent my Model 3 to Stuttgart Auto Body in Englewood CO for collision repair. It has been two weeks since my insurance did their initial estimate and the body shop has not yet started the teardown of the vehicle for their assessment. Every week they tell me they would start the teardown next...

    How good could this model 3 be fixed after its accident?

    I purchased a brand new 2019 model 3 AWD less than 2 months ago. Yesterday, I had a single car accident after acceleration on a curvy road I lost control of the car, swerved it, and hit a street light bulb on the side. There were severe damages on the front axle, the two doors on the left, the...

    Adding FSD after delivery (does it show on online?)

    If you have purchased the FSD package after delivery, does that option show up somewhere in your vehicle's online profile (tesla.com)? When I click on Manage, then View Details. Under Options, I see Autopilot listed but FSD is not there, even though I can use the FSD features when I drive the car.

    How far does your front door open when pressing door button?

    When I got my model 3 in mid April, the two front seat doors used to open widely (about 45 degrees) when pressing the door button from inside. Now they open very slightly (less than 5 degrees), and sometimes I would need to simultaneously push the door when pressing the button to open it, just...
