As a father of a little girl, your story has blatant errors... and since I have no idea about the car technical issues, I will instead correct your story mistakes. Princess Aurora, who is also known as "the sleeping beauty" fell into a sleep after she pricked her finger on a spindle. On the...

Had my car since February and I have 3000 miles on it. I finally had what I would consider a significant issue (all others were very minor). Driver rear window became disconnected from it's motor. Can't recall when exactly it happened, but that is a window I rarely use. I noticed that the...

Why fly or drive when there is google maps?

RV parks have 50 Amp service

I just got 4.4 and I can finally contribute to this thread on topic. I had 4.2 up until 7 days ago, then I had 4.3 for a week, and I've had 4.4 for 1.5 days. When I upgraded to 4.3, I noticed that my HomeLink range had decreased, but I didn't attribute it to the firmware upgrade, I figured it...

But how would you ever know? No customer would ever complain about being cheated, because apparently there does not seem to be a way to verify. Customers would complain about crappy service, but never about the tint. Although I do appreciate the effort @Kaivball, all I am asking is if someone...

I've been on this forum for a while, and I have been impressed by the depth and breadth of knowledge of the participants. In addition, I noticed that the background of the majority of the posters seems to be in the sciences, so I feel this is as good as any place to pose this question. I...

The Model S has a display that tells the same info as the prius. With the prius, when you step on the gas, you see an arrow from the engine to the battery and wheels. When you slow down, you see an arrow go from the wheels to the battery. On the Model S when you step on the Go pedal, the...

Wow, WTF. I called service wednesday regarding the update. Thursday at 2am I got the upgrade to 4.3, and within 24hrs I'm already obsolete :wink:

He said photoshop "skills" :wink::biggrin:

I was trying to get information on this same issue before. I was afraid I was the only one. See post: Model S Technical / Mechanical Issues - Page 148 I am using an iPhone 5. I have noticed that my phone connects 99% of the time when I get in. Only once did I have problems connecting...

Yes, I have. I can upload a picture later. I can't speak to the complaints about the springs failing over time. I'm not sure what kind of life expectancy the reviewers were expecting for a cheap piece of plastic. As for the complaints about the bottom falling off... well, that's how you get...

I found exactly what you are looking for. Once you remove the bottom of this coin holder, the arm rest will slide over it to conceal the coins. Bell 22-1-09707-8P8 Retrofit Coin Holder : Amazon.com : Automotive

I would like to suggest an improvement. I found a change holder that is low enough that the arm rest is able to close over it. Bell 22-1-09707-8P8 Retrofit Coin Holder : Amazon.com : Automotive

The EZ TAG stores have a testing sensor. Do a google search for "ez tag store" to find locations. I went through the test sensor with the sticker in various positions. I found that behind the rear view, on top of the black dots, I was able to get a "yellow light." Since it wasn't "green," I...

Thanks everyone. That helps. I guess I missed it.

I am wondering how I can get something other than the trip mileage on the right side of the speedometer display. First of all, I couldn't find anything in the owner's manual that explains how to reset trip odometer A or B (if I missed it, please direct me to the page). Secondly, is there...

Perhaps one web browser window could show what is in front of the car so that you don't get in an accident while checking on stock quotes :eek::scared: - - - Updated - - - I've been thinking about this, but does the NAV routing algorithm take into consideration the traffic info? It wouldn't...

Tell that to the people with the "blue wheelchair" spots. Park in one of those, and you get fined and towed! If you park in a fire zone, you get towed. I think the concern regarding PR and diplomacy is stupid. In spite of those, those rules, the general public doesn't seem to "hate"...

Just as I was starting to suspect. I wasn't pushing hard enough. I am pretty surprised, because pulling out the UMC was pretty tough (even when it wasn't fully latched. Anyhow, the "two clicks" comment is what finally clued me in. I only recalled hearing one click. So, I went to try it out...

If someone will ship, I will take one in Houston, TX. My only reservation, is that I want to see a picture of a completed item. Edit: a picture of a completed item installed. (even better, a video)

In addition to Gen III, I'd like to hear about the replacement for the Roadster. I traded my Roadster in for the Model S. I'd like to know when I can get a Roadster but with less wind noise and a motorized retractable hard-top convertible. (a la Mercedes SL class)

OOOOOOOOOOOoooooooooooooooh! Two clicks... I never listened for a second. Perhaps I need to push "harder." [sigh] Ok, I'll try that next. But based on what I am reading, I think that will end up being the problem, because I have the same symptoms as all the other people who didn't push hard...

You already have that to the left of the speedometer.

Anyone have problem with audio streaming issues? I get clipping of audio playback with both my Slacker source and my iPhone 5 Bluetooth source. Although I find it hard to believe that signal strength is poor for both 3G and bluetooth from my phone, it could be that... or it could be something...

I noticed that I have wanted an easy way to enter addresses into the NAV. When someone sends me a text of their address, I would like to cut and paste it into the NAV. Since the text message is on my iPhone, adding an address entry for the NAV via the iOS app would allow cut and paste.

I was online for the specific purpose of mentioning this. Wow, you just beat me. Anyhow, +1 - - - Updated - - - As far as the old fogeys, I was just pretending to be a hipster. Although I heard that NPR story, I also heard this mentioned on Marketplace a few times in the past. I also saw...

Still getting the error. I checked my UMC and charge port for dirt, they are pristine!

I'm with you right up to "noise doesn't have any effect." I believe that needs to be clarified. All vehicles make their own level of sound. Trains make a certain characteristic sound, as do motorcycles, mopeds, ICE cars, and bicycles. When you approach a train track, you have a duty to...

Problem is you are playing your radio too quietly. Turn up your music and drive with the windows down. - - - Updated - - - I have the same problem with dogs.

I have been keeping an eye on this, and I still have this error even though I tried the UMC reset. I was just about to report it to TM when I saw @Kipernicus' post. Now I have one more thing to check before I contact TM. The important thing is that my car is charging. I find it hard to...

Locked in the glove box... but thanks for reminding me... In my previous post, I forgot to request a "a valet mode." If there is a valet mode, I haven't found it yet, but there needs to be a way we can give the car to the valet and lock the glove box so that they can't get in there. Is that a...

I've had my Model S for 4 days now, and only one time I had this weird behavior. Can someone tell me if I accidentally activated some feature, or was this a bug. Normal Behavior: When I am playing slacker music, when one song ends, there is a brief pause as a new song is located, then it...

I just joined this thread, and we are on page 24, so I would like to +1 a couple requests, OR if these suggestions haven't been proposed, then I would like to be the one to propose them: Web Browser: There are many websites I visit that require login info. There should be a way to save login...

This is no big secret, but it is a tip/trick that you may not have thought of. In your Model S web browser, you can save the first post of this thread as a "favorite" Comes in handy.

There is a list of alternate products you should avoid too. The NYT is not just the NYT, it is also the Boston Globe List of assets owned by The New York Times Company - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Yesterday was my first day with the car. I saw that error the second time I plugged in the car (It may have been there the first time, but I didn't look). In any case, I tried unseating and reseating the plug, but the error persisted. The car charged at 16A (but I figured that was because...

Maybe TESLIVE is a version of MacWorld Expo or WWDC, except for Tesla Motors products. That would explain why the name is a mashup of "Tesla" and "Live." And it would explain why it seems to be hinting at some sort of meeting involving a large number of Tesla Motors enthusiasts.

The hit the beginning of my window. I finallized Jan 14 and I was given a Feb 19-March 5 window. Delivery was Feb 21 (85 non-perf, all options except 21" wheels)

If you pay by loan... when you press the "pay now" button, it lets you calculate how much you owe. So if you are financing 90% of your car payment, then if the car is $100,000 and you are getting $90,000 financed and you paid a deposit of $5,000, then it allows you to pay the balance of $5,000...

The roadster only attracts young men.

in the meantime, I will use a piece of cardboard fashioned to fit and held in place with two binder clips. :wink:

Got both an email and a call today. 1/13 - Finalized design 1/14 - Signed paperwork 1/28 - Delivery button (Window Feb 19 - March 5) 2/13 - VIN # 5253 (Via iPhone App) 2/19 - Received call: Your vehicle is in Texas and is being detailed. We need D/L, Insurance info and Money. He added a "Pay...

I would like to add that the "Super Storm Sandy" concern is a non-issue. Last time we had a hurricane in Houston, power was out in many places for over a week. Power was also out for the gas stations. The gas stations were not pumping gas, so the gas cars had what they had in the tank. A BEV...

count me in as possibly interested (at the right price). One thing I'll need to know is how much will the shipping be to Houston? If the shipping is expensive, it may not be worth it. FWIW, I had another car that had no spare (only slime and a pump). I hit a huge pot hole and had a blow...

Some of the people following this thread may not have caught this parallel thread: Inspired by NYT Tesla test, here are my consumer trials of some products (humor)) We'd appreciate your humorous input there as well.
