    West Virginia Superchargers (location speculation, discussion)

    When did Tesla announce that they were no longer making and deploying superchargers? You apparently listen to too much FUD.

    OTA update to FSD V12 as part of recent FSD purchase

    That is the dirty little secret. MCU1 does not appear to be compatible with FSD. I am unaware of any MCU1 vehicle that is running FSD. I've been waiting 1.5 years since Tesla said that FSDb was available to anyone who had paid for FSD and I opted in. All upgrades have been done and still no FSD.

    2020 Model S Alignment Issues

    Before you pay for another alignment have the torque checked on all nuts and bolts in the front suspension. I had two alignments done, one by the Tesla service center and the other by an independent shop only to find out that almost all the lower ball joints were loose and yet both places had...

    Tesla: Highlights from our upcoming Spring Release below

    I had this feature on a Hyundai Sonata and it became a real PITA. It would open the trunk when I didn't want it to and I had to check to make sure the trunk hadn't opened. It was nice when that feature broke.

    2017 Model S Stuck on FSD v11.0 & Feeling Left Behind

    Tesla is about out of road to kick the can down. They have repeatedly said that MCU has nothing to do with FSD so they won't upgrade it. My car with MCU 1 Has never received any version of FSDb. Well FSD is no longer Beta and Tesla states that V12.x is available to all FSD capable cars. It's...

    Damage to Passenger back Panel

    On the model y it's just a steel fender. It doesn't look like you've creased any body lines so any competent body shop should be able to do the job. You are going to need the area repainted so look for someone whose good at color matching. good luck.

    Installed yoke in model 3. Horn now not working correctly.

    You need to remove the airbag again and reseat the left plug. Also check that the horn mechanism is properly installed in the yoke and that no wires are keeping it from being depressed. Try and honk the horn with the airbag removed. Hope this helps.

    NHTSA make roads across the world less safe

    The real solution to the phone problem that no one wants to address is to require all phone manufacturers to install software that if the phone is moving more than 5 mph it can only dial 911 and does not send or receive any other transmission.

    Gas vs EV in extreme cold

    Just like ICE vehicle fires just because the press doesn't report on them doesn't mean that they didn't happen. Just because the press doesn't report ICE cold weather problems doesn't mean they don't exist.

    Teslas crash more than gas-powered cars. Here’s why

    Are these all " at fault " mishaps that we're talking about? Teslas get crashed into alot and that has little to do with the car itself. If it's not an " at fault " mishap it has to do with the other driver such as rear ending the Tesla or running a red light and T boning the Tesla.

    FSD on old model s

    Welcome to the club. Currently there is no one with MCU 1 that has received FSD beta. The hand full that received it back in 2022 had it pulled about three weeks later. It looks like contrary to Teslas position that MCU has nothing to do with FSD, The MCU 1 is incompatible with the current FSD beta.

    cybertruck range - post it here

    It doesn't matter what drive train you have ICE, electric or other, the faster you drive the more energy you use and the less range you have. Basic physics. Welcome to reality. Even the cybertruck can't change that.

    Is any MCU1 car actually on FSD Beta yet?

    There is the matter of being told by the company that the cars had all equipment for FSD and if it turned out that they didn't the equipment would be up graded at no cost until they were compatible with FSD. A year ago the company stated that FSD Beta was available to all owners who had paid for...

    Why Less Info in App Screen?

    Yes with the new software it's trying to have you set up the phone as a key. Go ahead and set up the phone as a key in the app then go into the app setting and turn that selection off if you don't use your phone as a key.

    Try painless dent repair. From my experience they can work magic and are much cheaper than having body work done by a shop. The dents that I have had removed, you can't tell they ever happened

    Opening between trunk room and cabin interior

    Tesla is correct in their position. During the manufacture of the Model 3 a change was made to close off the mesh opening in the shelf between the rear seat and the trunk. The fact that one is not closed off is not a defect but rather a different design. If you choose to update the vehicle to...

    Can a dying 12v battery cause a VCfront A552 and others?

    I believe it was the VCfront 552- condition detected with the controller. It cost around $800 to fix. I was still able to drive the car to the SC. Hope that helps.

    CCS Retrofit Cost for [Model S and X only, at this time - Feb 2023]

    Might want them to recheck that. The current info and my own quote is that the kit itself , which includes the adapter, is $450.00 and labor and tax will be added to that. So about $540.
