    Car and Driver suffers Model 3 failure on 12/25, but car told them about it remotely

    Agreed!! Not picking up the phone is not new for Tesla. Their inability to even have a voicemail in 2018 for model 3 (june 30thsh) forget answer the phone (as i remember the prompt would say our lines are busy etc) when I tried them multiple times, was one of the factors that cost me the...

    Comparing LR AWD to SR+

    +1 Given the current availability of premium connectivity on SR+, in my mind the real difference between the models OP listed is AWD and longer range. The former is less of an issue if you dont live in a cold place or have winter tires (I have them). In LA i doubt you'd need it. Range is more...

    WTB 18" aero rims set SE michigan (metro detroit)

    Thanks. The one on ebay is not a direct sale, rather a trade in for your wheels that you have to send them (they paint them black or chrome). I also called them directly but they are priced more than tesla itself (295-350 a piece). I will wait to hear if anyone wants to sell their used. Failing...

    WTB 18" aero rims set SE michigan (metro detroit)

    Looking for a set of 18' aero wheels and cover for mounting winter tires on my model 3. Located in SE michigan (oakland county) and local pickup much preferred. Flexible if inclusive of TPMS or otherwise. Thanks

    Reduced price Autopilot & FSD for existing owners announced March 1st

    Agreed but then maybe some of us thought that Tesla was different from all the regular auto dealers. I am fine personally with them delaying the increase or for that matter keeping it permanent, i just dont care for this sale 50% off ending today business (like kohl's) and then oh guess what it...

    Michigan Registration Fee

    Thanks. The site you quoted is actually the one that leads to the 53K for AWD and I believe they use something similar to it. There is a link for 2014 and beyond base model prices which leads to NADA site and there under tesla long range AWD it comes up with 53K base. thats where the issue is.

    Michigan Registration Fee

    I think it depends on which SOS you go to. I did take the monroney sticker and they refused to consider this. They told me they use the NADA site and thats it (politely though). Which SOS did you go to? Also as I am not familiar with Model S, where was the 69K listed on your sticker? Can one...

    Michigan Registration Fee

    49K is for RWD on NADA. Is that what u bought or did they use that even though u bought an AWD? If so, good deal (somewhat). For comparison, they listed me as 53K registration value since NADA brought that up for my AWD. Also my VIN did not pull up anything rather they manually looked up for AWD...

    Thanks. What SOS was this at and was it recent? The one i went to at Troy, oakland county has reportedly registered multiple teslas (the lady at counter 1 told me all she seems to be seeing last month are teslas!!) and they claim they have a process wherein they look it up online (NADA site). So...

    Tesla Model 3 Floor Mats

    Thanks for the pictures. Am trying to understand the orientation but if I understand those clips are just in front of the console. I will look in my car tomorrow and it should be straight forward. In fact in the video posted above, i suspect there are clips up ahead that one can just see. Since...

    A follow up since I just did the car title and registration. 1. Yes renewed old car (much in advance) 2. Had 45 day ohio plate 3 and4: Transferred plate to tesla for 8 (also 15 for new title FYI) 5. However they would not budge on accepting the 35K base price. They have a software they check on...

    How are the 3D MAXpider floor mats holding up?

    Agreed. I suspect some of those commenting on Tuxmat not looking good havent got them in their cars but are presuming from pictures. They look decent in my car. Maybe the maxspider are better looking? More importantly they protect my car and thats what matters to me most.

    TuxMat Floor Liners

    Good so they finally are there now. I had called Tuxmat before I bought it less than a month back and they could not tell me when they would sell it at other sites. This should make it a little easier for US customers. The price from Canada was for me marginally less than this amazon price after...

    How are the 3D MAXpider floor mats holding up?

    They are sold by retailers to customers and yes for some reason are hard to find even listed. I thinks evtuning and partscatalog were a couple of sites that sold it (check around forum) and I also found another site in the west coast. However after all that I went with tuxmat and am happy (as...

    is there a trick to getting an e-mail response from service?

    I dont know about this chit chat business. I will second the OP. Every electronic communication I have sent either from Tesla website or via email address to customer service or service center ranging from original order problem on June 30th that needed urgent resolution to delivery issues on...

    How are the 3D MAXpider floor mats holding up?

    +1 Tuxmats have a big rim especially for rear seats where they extend in the back. Also costs similar to maxspider give or take a few dollars for CAD to USD conversion (including not free shipping)

    Tesla Model 3 Floor Mats

    Thanks. I got my mat set this weekend. They shipped faster than the day they promised and given i am in michigan was there in 2 days. Looks very good as you mentioned. Great coverage. Only issue i got into was the central lock/pin for the drivers mat. I struggled initially getting the pin deep...

    Tesla Model 3 Floor Mats

    Thank you. I am veering towards it too especially given the routine delays that maxspider has. On a related note, has it been fairly easy to unclip or unvelcro the tuxmat when you need to clean it?

    Tesla Model 3 Floor Mats

    Thats good to hear as i hear from buyers like you that the mats looks better in person than the pictures. I have an order for the maxspider but they will take at least 5 weeks. Sounds (based on call today with tuxmat) that tuxmat may be in stock end october so i will get them in around 2 weeks...

    Not following what you mean. I was reaching out to @Emmexx1 about a question. Is that what you are asking?

    Tesla Model 3 Floor Mats

    Thanks. I may have to call them to see if they still ship out to US still.

    @Emmexx1 Did you order recently? Somewhere else i remember reading that they no longer ship to US. I noticed you are in IL. Thanks.

    Full Self Driving Price - $4K upgrade no longer honored?

    I may have missed this somewhere but what do forum members think the cost of an upgraded computer would be if one paid for it when available rather than getting it free with the FSD package.

    Vendor 3D Maxpider Floor Mats for Model S + Free $25 EV Tuning Gift Card

    @EVTuning Ouch, just realized i am posting in the wrong forum thread. My order was for the model 3 and this thread is for the s. I did order the model 3 one from what my paypal receipt says using the same coupon. Should I cancel order? Or can you similarly refund the shipping for me? thanks

    Vendor 3D Maxpider Floor Mats for Model S + Free $25 EV Tuning Gift Card

    Wow that was fast!! Thank you. i just ordered it via paypal. Total was 213.72 including the 8.63 for shipping.

    Vendor 3D Maxpider Floor Mats for Model S + Free $25 EV Tuning Gift Card

    @EVTuning I was just trying to order and noticed (for shipment to michigan), i dont see a free shipping option but rather a choice between 8.63 priority or 18 odd for ups. I applied the "free" coupon and was using paypal but also tried with CC. Thanks

    Xpel clear bra +opticoat

    Thanks. So partial hood and partial fender plus bumper? I wondered if that would mean a line across the hood and how that would both look and if it would cause the film to curl up over time. Sounds like you have a 2017 model, so has it been good for the past year and half? Also is there a...

    Need Advise on delivery repairs

    Thank you for the suggestion, will take a look in the car. My iphone app only has video guides and a 'loot box'. I dont see any way to access any settings on it. Also logging onto Tesla.com looks the same as it was before my car was delivered (claims i should be getting delivered sep-nov !!).

    Xpel clear bra +opticoat

    Wow that is a great price. Here in south east michigan one well known installer (and referred by others on Tesla forums) quoted me $2400 for xpel for just the front (bumper, fender and full hood) and 1200 for partial hood, partial fender and bumpers. I may have to shop around I guess.

    Need Advise on delivery repairs

    Thanks and interesting. I just spoke to a service person (45 mins wait to get someone) and he said I can send issues upto 3 days. This was more to do with car issues like missing parts, scratches etc on delivery. So may be different from refund. Thank you. Now i am trying to get my app activated...

    Need Advise on delivery repairs

    @Tam What is this 3 day money back guarantee you mention? Didnt know that. When they dropped my car off two days ago (home delivery-michigan), there was water both on and inside the car (reportedly they put car in trailer while pouring), with condensation between the window and rim, scratch...

    Thinking about buying Model 3 but....

    That 2500 is for "indiana michigan power". Not sure what their coverage is but the big guys like DTE and Consumers are not giving out 2500. Also as @nogassnorlax stated, I dont know of a michigan state subsidy for EV. In fact Michigan penalizes EVs!! There is a surcharge to have a non gas...

    Will the AWD Model 3 Need Snow Tires?

    @Toddsquad. The APA in Canada recommends the Pirellis. I have had only Bridgestone Blizzaks on my cars but I will be buying the Tesla’s package in the fall. If I don’t like them I’ll throw some Blizzaks on. @Tzoid Was the recommendation specific to the model 3? I just went on the APA site (...

    Thoughts on winter wheels/tires - aftermarket or Tesla?

    Interesting. So do you mean if we buy just winter tires from Tesla (though i currently dont see that option... Tire plus rims available), the mobile rangers will swap them out each season for free? If that is the case, it would be fantastic.
  40. M

    Thoughts on winter wheels/tires - aftermarket or Tesla?

    May be varies from place to place, but from what I know if you buy tires from them and mount them on separate rims, they will swap the winters for the all season combos for free. Thats what they currently do for my family van. i tip the guys(s) swapping rims and resetting the TPMS. However they...

    Thoughts on winter wheels/tires - aftermarket or Tesla?

    Agreed. I also like the bridgestone blizzak in addition to the X-ice. My worry too about the regular tire store damaging the car; though being in a state without a tesla presence I may have to use tire stores like discount or belle. I wonder if anyone around here has experience with tire stores...

    Michigan Registration Fee

    I believe that was the maximum last year for the trade in price that can be deducted. So if you sold a 40k car, in Michigan currently you could deduct only 3k towards the new car. Other states have a much higher cap. I heard that this number increases every year so eventually it will be...

    Michigan Registration Fee

    Thanks. On the payment part, you will probably see that they still list 35K as model 3. They group all other costs except EAP/FSD as one lumpsum. As I recollect, there is no model 3 second trim. They are all model 3 with (now mandatory) add ons such as the premium package (5k), long range (9K)...

    Michigan Registration Fee

    Thank you for that very quick reply. It does look like they have changed documentation since thats the place i see the 53K (mine is with AWD). I do however see under the payment method, there is a vehicle configuration which lists the car as 35K, long range Awd as 18, etc. However thats not...

    Has this invoice information from Tesla changed? Or are you referring to a different document. I just checked my purchase agreement on my tesla account first page and it only lists the car as 53, and then has paint as 1k, and premium interior and premium black listed as "included". The only...
