    Wow - When you buy tires from Tesla, you get no coverage?

    Sadly I mistakenly assumed Tesla would have some form of this as their warranty is robust normally. I would understand if this was for the original stock tires that came with it - but not standing by tires that are half a year old feels very scummy. Either way, being able to have a conversation...

    Wow - When you buy tires from Tesla, you get no coverage?

    It's still there, they only got to it this morning since it happened later last night. But he said 2mm on the back tires, 5 on the front. either way, I've bought one tire already (and rim for 1300) so I'll need 3 other close matching ones. I'm just worried that the one I bought now is another...

    Wow - When you buy tires from Tesla, you get no coverage?

    Sadly that is probably the best course of action for Tesla owners...which is a disappointing realization for me.

    Wow - When you buy tires from Tesla, you get no coverage?

    Just to update... Sounds like it was a normal flat, and the pulling into the parking lot shredded it in that way. The rim is damaged as well so it's $1300 or so to fix. Fine - it sucks a lot. This particular tire issue aside, what I'm dealing with now is that they're saying that my tires are...

    Wow - When you buy tires from Tesla, you get no coverage?

    I normally wouldn’t go first party, but Tesla stuff is so different because you can’t go anywhere for service. So I decided to keep it in house (I was in for unrelated service when they sold me on new tires. It was already in the shop)

    Wow - When you buy tires from Tesla, you get no coverage?

    It feels like Tesla should mention that they don’t offer that when spending two grand on tires. So the lesson learned is don’t buy tires at Tesla, which seems backwards to me.

    Wow - When you buy tires from Tesla, you get no coverage?

    But I didn’t buy them from Discount Tire. I bought them from Tesla direct.

    Wow - When you buy tires from Tesla, you get no coverage?

    In March, I bought all new tires from the Tesla Shop. Today my wife was driving and one of them fully exploded and she drove on the rim into a parking lot for safety. Put in a service request and they force me to agree to pay to fix (impossible, see pictures) or buy a new one. So if I went to a...

    Wood strip maintenance?

    I have white interior and it being plastic is kind of a bummer. I wish it were stained wood or something. Or even fake the texture.

    How do you get Spotify or tidal to play right when you hop in car?

    My issue is that I listen to the music loud and if I don’t turn it down before getting out, I’m treated to some really loud music when I get back in

    Trade in offer ouch!

    I had a 2013 Kia Optima EX. Truecar, Cars.com and Vroom offered $6500. Tesla offered $5000. Then I hit up Carvana and they paid my $8300 for it. I was blown away. Definitely recommend Carvana.

    I don’t know how it is everywhere but in Nevada, you get a paper placard from the dealer that gives you a month or so to register for plates properly at the DMV.

    My June one was the same as today’s but 10 days instead of 7. Are you white interior?
  37. B

    Can anyone explain the (exact) ordering process?

    I only have limited experience but you order online and then a few days later you get a text saying “we will be building your car within 10 days” and then 12 days later you get another text saying “we will be building your car within 7 days” Not sure what’s next.
