    False Security Alarm and Hood Open Warning

    A couple of months ago while at lunch, the Tesla app on my iPhone sends me multiple alerts that the alarm had been activated. When I finally got to the car to check it out, all appeared fine. A gardener who was working nearby tells me the alarm started to sound on its own with nobody near it...

    Is trickle charging the 12v battery necessary?

    Due to the COVID-19 stay-at-home order, I pretty much don't drive my Model 3 anymore so it just sits in the garage plugged into the wall charger. Will this also maintain the state of charge for the 12v battery or do I need to get a separate battery maintainer to keep it properly charged?

    Headlights not turning off

    My headlights remained on for most of the day today in bright sunlight. I have them set to AUTO so I finally turned them off manually. Has anyone else come across this? Is there a sensitivity setting somewhere that I'm missing? I seem to recall there was a thread on this and I did a search but...

    Upper trunk lining

    I took delivery this afternoon and when looking in the trunk when I got home, I noticed the upper surface of the trunk is bare metal and is not lined. Is this normal or did someone fall asleep at the factory?

    Los Angeles DWP rate plans - which do you use?

    I'm trying to get information on the cost of charging my car here in Los Angeles and I'm reaching out to you to see if I have my facts straight and to see what people in the L.A. area are doing. The LADWP has two residential rate plans - the Standard Residential rate plan and the Time-of-Use...

    Ordering a Tesla at a store vs. online

    Is there an advantage of ordering a Tesla at a store with a salesperson over just ordering online? Can a salesperson add anything price-wise such as an incentive? Will the wait time be the same each way?
