    Blue Model Y waiting room

    Yep, Texas, 2023

    Blue Model Y waiting room

    One side had a tighter fit than the other -- there are little bumpers on the hatch that you can screw in and out -- I made mine a little bit longer so that they close tighter. I shut the hatch on a piece of paper to see how tight it was closing -- if I could pull the paper out while it was...

    Traction Control Sounds Like Car is Bottoming Out

    Davidleon, there really wasn't anything to figure out -- it just makes that noise when I go into my driveway -- I've had my car for about 7 months and I haven't experienced anything negative beyond the annoying noise when pulling in... Approaching straight on instead of at an angle helps, it's...

    False Frunk Open Notification

    So I took my car in to try and fix this problem and they replaced the front body controller after they ruled out everything. Everything seemed to be fine after this but we haven't had a really hot day until... a couple weeks ago -- when the exact same thing happened again. As soon as the car...

    TRADE IN PAYOFF TAKING FOREVER!

    I had a similar experience where Audi was waiting on Tesla to give them an "Odometer Statement" form...I had to make 2 extra payments because the alert was sent to my Audi electronic inbox and not an actual piece of mail...it was a bit of a pain and Tesla kept telling me "Audi has everything...

    Whose M3 has NEVER been back to SC for ANY reason? Any??

    About to go in tomorrow morning for my second visit for the same issue. Whenever it is hot outside my frunk alerts me that it is unlatched causing my alarm to go nuts all day until I just keep my car unlocked. No matter what I do it won't "close" (even though it is absolutely closed and...

    False Frunk Open Notification

    Hi! I'm having a weird issue that it seems on really warm days my frunk gives a false open alert which sets my car alarm and Sentry mode alarm off all day long. I've gone out and made certain that it was pushed all the way closed...I've done a reset by holding both knobs on the wheel but I...

    Wind Noise/Whistle from passenger-side mirror

    Unfortunately I was on the move when I noticed the the bottom of the mirror was popped out and I didn't take any photos...

    Traction Control Sounds Like Car is Bottoming Out

    Thank you for this response, I just want to know if anyone else out there had a similar experience! I’ve asked my girlfriend to watch closely and I’m definitely not scraping but it is definitely a very ugly sound.

    Traction Control Sounds Like Car is Bottoming Out

    Does anyone else have experience with the traction control sounding like a grinding noise similar to what scraping the undercarriage would sound like? I have an uneven entrance into my garage and at first I thought my car was scraping but I have enough ground clearance to get in without...

    Trade-In Not Paid Off Yet?

    I'm in the same boat as you...I made the payment because I didn't trust them to get all of the paperwork handled in time (they had 14 days to make the payoff and they didn't do it so I paid and will patiently wait for a refund from Audi.

    Wind Noise/Whistle from passenger-side mirror

    Hi! Just wanted to share a quick fix to an annoying problem that I had since delivery of my car. The passenger-side mirror would whistle very loudly at speeds above 35mph and it was seriously hampering my enjoyment of the car...turns out that there was a piece of plastic that just needed popped...

    OK, so...did everyone get their cars by the end of 2019?

    After months of reading through these threads, did everyone get their cars? How was the event? Are we all good?

    So happy with Model 3 car

    Congrats buddy...my Model 3 is the first car that I've actually loved. I've had a few cars that I liked, but this is the only one that I've been obsessed with...

    California, The Land That Time Forgot

    Haha...as soon as I got mine I went to a family dinner and everyone wanted to take a seat in mine...including all of the kids who were out playing in the dirt and climbing trees. I had to get over getting a little bit of dirt and mud in my brand new car pretty quickly...

    California, The Land That Time Forgot

    I finally got a car! It wasn’t the one that I ordered...but I got a car! I ordered a white stealth on 12/2 and kept getting my delivery date pushed, my VIN would appear and reappear and no two people would ever give me the same answer to the same question...but...my SA was always responsive and...

    Model 3 optional paint costs dropped by $500

    Not sure, but red was definitely $2,500 sometime this month...I was building and skipped it because that seemed pretty steep to me for paint...

    California, The Land That Time Forgot

    Does anyone else’s Apple Watch tell them to “Breathe” like 400 times a day during this waiting and refreshing the same websites over and over?

    Model 3 optional paint costs dropped by $500

    I just swapped my Model 3 order to an inventory car that is Red and it is showing up as 2k on my invoice. Wasn't it just $2,500?

    Performance Waiting Room

    I fear this same thing happening to me...my financing details have changed multiple times in my account. So I’m afraid I’ll show up and they’ll ask for some monster payment and I’ll be too amped up to get the car that I’ll pay it...

    California, The Land That Time Forgot

    I seriously doubt this is the case, BUUUUT -- I wonder if she called to scare me into switching to a more expensive car with the threat of me having to wait a much longer time. I'm sure they know people are starting to get antsy...

    California, The Land That Time Forgot

    That's totally how I felt when I ordered my stealth...it seemed like everything was happening VERY fast (they even told me "get insurance on it, you'll have it in 2 days), then literally nothing happened for weeks...

    California, The Land That Time Forgot

    Well, I just got a call from my SA saying "It doesn't look like you'll be getting your car this year...if you don't get it by December 31st, it might be a while, do you want a red one or a black one?" (I ordered a white Stealth.) She sent me a red Stealth that has 180 miles on it...(not sure if...

    SR/SR+ (Model 3 RWD) Waiting Room

    Yeah, I'm sure we all have understanding that this is an incredibly in-demand item and that there is patience required to get it...but getting SEMI-correct information doesn't seem like it is too much to ask for...so crazy.

    WOW, that is incredibly lame.

    California, The Land That Time Forgot

    I felt like I had the best success with Chatting on the Tesla website with someone and they would always tell me "Someone will call you soon" and 95% of the time someone called within an hour. Sometimes when they'd call they'd have some new information, sometimes they wouldn't know anything new...

    California, The Land That Time Forgot

    My account finally loaded -- it came up with my VIN in the source! Also asking to pay off my remaining balance for the first time. (Although my leasing payment information is now wrong...but I'm working on that.) Looks like things are moving!

    Performance Waiting Room

    Yeah, I've been having issues. I've been chatting with a Delivery Specialist and my Sales Advisor and they are telling me that even their systems are being buggy.

    Performance Waiting Room

    So frustrating. By far the most annoying part of waiting for this car is the miscommunication and misinformation. I don't particularly mind waiting for an in-demand and popular product but I feel mislead pretty much every time I talk to anyone. I know it will all be worth it in the end, but damn...

    California, The Land That Time Forgot

    - I've had a VIN since the day I ordered on 12/2. - Delivery has been pushed 2 times - VIN disappeared from my account about 45 minutes ago - missing from the page and from the source code - I got an email 5 minutes ago from the Marina Del Rey Order Support telling me the good news that "my VIN...

    LR AWD Performance (Stealth TM3) Waiting Room

    Yeah I had a delivery date and I called the day before just to confirm the appointment and I got the message "You car hasn't left the factory yet." Fun!

    California, The Land That Time Forgot

    How typical is my experience? - Ordered on 12/2 -- a SA sent me an email with 2 Stealth versions to choose from -- both had a VIN assigned. - Was told it was in inventory and I would be getting it before the end of the week - While arranging financing various different people told me that my...

    LR AWD Performance (Stealth TM3) Waiting Room

    Haha, yeah...I guess the adventure part is the fact multiple people give conflicting information and no one can confirm what another person has said... Seems like that's par for the course (and I'm well aware that people have been waiting FOREVER.) Not complaining, just sharing my story.

    LR AWD Performance (Stealth TM3) Waiting Room

    I've had a pretty circuitous adventure with my stealth order too: - Put order in on 12/2 on what I was told was a car sitting on a lot in Carlsbad, CA. I had a SA find it for me and it had a VIN when I ordered it. - SA contacted me on 12/5 3 days later telling me that I had a VIN -- which was...

    Performance Waiting Room

    I made the fatal (to my wallet) mistake of browsing the Tesla showroom while my Audi was getting some recall service last week and scheduled a test drive. I inquired via Chat support on the Tesla website about the stealth performance just to see what they'd have to say. Someone called me within...
