    Terrible Service Center Experience for Model X

    Interesting that OP has two lengthy posts complaining of poor Tesla service that will eventually be company's achilles heel. Then OP says he is buying another Tesla next year!

    Model X Reliability

    My 2018 X has 44k miles and I expect to hit 50k this summer or early fall. No serious trouble with it since 12/2018 purchase, but the pucker factor is increasing daily as I was the odometer. I may have to go the 2yr extended warranty route. No way am I going to be 100% exposed after 50k.

    Model X Glass Roof Crack

    FWD top glass replacement cost

    Yellow border on instrument cluster screen - not MCU

    I was quite disappointed this week to check my speed and see the cursed yellow border on the top of the instrument cluster. This is not on the MCU - had that fixed several months ago. I guess I'll send in a repair request since I am under warranty on my 2018 X75D (26k miles). Just wondering...

    Extension cord for 110v on UMC

    I reached my charging station parking space last week and ended up about 3 feet short of the 110v plug! Never needed an extra 3 feet before so I have no clue what kind of extension cord would have worked with my Model X 75D. Appreciate all the electrical advice anyone can share. thanks...

    Buying used from Tesla, bad experience, any recourse?

    I am driving my third Tesla - S and 2 X's - and have almost 100,000 miles in my drive log. First bought the S in 12/2015 and was treated like a king at delivery in Rockville, MD SC. Bought a 2016 X90D in 6/2017 and was treated like a prince at the delivery in Raleigh, NC SC. Kind of...

    Where to buy key fob batteries CR 2354?

    I had a boss in the early 1980's who was one of those "the boss knows more than anyone else" guys. He purchased about 20 of the Tandy 2000 computers because "they are much better than the IBM ones." Not long after we all had a new boss and IBM computers :)

    Navigation by voice

    I commented in an earlier thread on this issue that HOLDING the button, as we long time Tesla owners had to do in the S and X, does not work. The new method is to simply tap the button and the mic will flash and hear quite well.

    Recent windshield replace by anyone?

    I also had to deal with upfront payment to Tesla then file with insurance company for reimbursement. USAA did all the paperwork on line and after my deductible I had the balance in less than 2 weeks.

    Need some advice buying used Model X

    The X75D is 239 at 100%...the X90D was in the 255 at 100% range. I figured the 16 mile loss would not matter. It does not on MOST trips. However, there are occasions when those 16 would really help. The X90D was no longer in the lineup when I bought the 2018 X75D and the $$ jump to the X100D...

    Need some advice buying used Model X

    I had a 2016 X90D that was an 8/2016 build. Autopilot and some other options. It was a very nice Tesla and only had a few minor issues that were quickly and conveniently handled by the local SC. I cannot make that statement about the workings of the SC in today's service hell. I drove the...

    Voice Commands in 2019.40.50

    I have owned Tesla's since 12/2015 and I always had to HOLD DOWN the mic button while I spoke a command. I continued this hold and speak method of issuing voice commands after the 40.50 update. Then I read a comment that we no longer need to hold and speak! Just tap the button on activate the...

Of course after making the 40 minute trip the tech told me the UV tool is broken and the SC is waiting for another! Not to waste a trip I asked them to get my voice commands working again. I explained that I had...

    Model X gull wing door roof window crack

    That same hail storm also took out my windshield. That repair was $1523. Even Safelite's quote was $1400 and I decided Tesla had more experience with the big windshield.

    Trailer hitch receiver help needed

    I'm amazed at what owners don't know

    Lack of information shared with a buyer at delivery is part of the "new" Tesla culture, a culture that has really declined since the introduction of the Model 3, IMO. When I purchased a Model S in December 2015 I picked up the car in the Rockville, MD showroom and walked on a red carpet to the...

    Outrageous $5000 repair bill after warranty expire!

    When I was coming up on the 50k mile mark on my 2016 Model X, I weighed purchasing the ESA for $4000, plus $200 deductible every time I used it, plus the "then implied requirement to do the extended service every year." This was happening just before the $7500 tax credit was ending. I was able...

    Order FSD now?

    Does this upgrade for $3k actually add anything for an EAP Model X? I understand that FSD is "coming soon" but at age 76 I want to get something immediately for my $3k. Investing in FSD with $3k today is as bad as buying green bananas :)

    Price drop! Standard range gone.

    I bought my first Tesla, Model S P85, in 2015. I have bought 2 Model X's since then. My advice is to buy your car and don't keep looking at new prices! Enjoy what you paid for and keep looking forward. Life is gets way too complicated when you concentrate on the rear view mirror view.

    Homelink and 20.4.2

    All is working fine on my 8/2018 2.5 MCU2 Model X. I believe the region braking in TACC is a bit more abrupt and jerky that previously. Still have the annoying phantom braking and sudden slowdown for the car in the adjacent lane.
