    Can Not Read Incoming Texts

    I have a 2020 Tesla Model Y and an iPhone 13. I receive texts fine but nothing I do allows me to read them. Anyone have idea what if anything I can do? I have contacted support and they say I have the most recent software available and should go to "Advanced Update" and canceled my support request.

    Different Light Show Music

    During a family visit I was asked to demonstrate the Tesla Light Show. It seems to me to be a different melody that was also a bit longer. Did Tesla change the Light Show music? This on a 2020 Tesla Model Y. I have probably tried the Light Show 4 or 5 times since the car was new.

    Post Deleted “Possible Vendor Shaming”

    I posted a request for customer experiences dealing with T Sportline. How is that in any way shaming? Does this forum forbid knowing how vendors treat its customers?

    Easy Entry Turn Off

    Turning off Easy Entry seem to be impossible. No matter what I check/uncheck, Easy Entry remains on or at least the driver seat goes all the way back. I even tried using the spare key card and left the iPhone home to see if that would make a difference. Nope. When I stop the car, press Park...

    Intelligent Headlights

    Seems like an excellent idea. https://www.carscoops.com/2022/08/fords-next-gen-headlights-can-project-street-signs-onto-roads/ Anybody have an opinion? Would love to see this become a Service Center installed option. Night driving is the worst for me.

    Washing The Tesla Model Y

    In the 2 years that I have had the car I only hand wash or brushless wash it. Today I came across this tidbit on line: "Tesla warns you against taking your car to a regular automated car wash that uses brushes and bristles to clean your vehicle. However, if you're taking your Tesla through a...

    Holiday Update (2021.44.25.2)- A Big Disappointment

    Should Sentry Mode Be Synchronized From Car To App

    The sentry mode is “on” in the Model Y yet “off” on the iPhone app. I thought if you changed one setting it would change the other. With sentry mode “on” the car is losing more than 20 miles of range a day

    Question About Web Browser

    I was/am under the impression that the Model Y has its own WiFi built in so I can use the browser outside of being parked in my garage. I tried using the browser and I get a request for WiFi information and there I’m stuck. I was in a McDonald’s parking lot. Am I wrong in my assumption? Or...

    Is There An App Out There That Notifies If There Is A Sentry Event

    Necessary Accessory?

    This is the first car I have bought that doesn’t have a spare tire. Tire air pressure is also an important part of the range equation. So I bought a battery operated portable air compressor.

    Another Range Post

    Well, after 5 months I charged the Model Y to 100% on 11/1/2020. Display was 315. Today the battery was depleted to 8%. Total mileage is 201. The last 100 miles I drove extremely conservative. I live in Rhode Island which has a lot of hills.

    Cleaning The Model Y

    With out a doubt the Model Y is the easiest car I've ever owned to clean the interior. Except for its size the same goes for the exterior. Every time I clean it I appreciate its simplicity of detail and everything is easy to get to and clean. That and the driving experience has made me a fan.

    The White Y

    Sounds politically incorrect...... I saw a white Model Y up close for the first time. It’s not the color white I expected. It’s loaded with tiny “metal flake” or something and was a real standout color. Or just simply beautiful to my eye. Saw the blue also. In person it’s much better...

    Signed Out Of iPhone App
