    Model S Battery Failure - Achilles Heel

    My 2017 Model S 100D with 40,000 miles suddenly started flashing warnings last week and had towed to Tesla Service Center. Diagnosis was battery failure due to water seepage under a fuse cover which Tesla attributes to an impact to this fuse cover which cracked the plastic below. While there...

    Change charge rate from app please!

    This is THE most tedious aspect of having our Tesla. Please Elon, allow us to change the amps remotely rather than having to head out to the car. Please pile in to lend support so that this somehow makes its way onto Elon's radar. Cheers.

    Getting billed for using a normal looking wall connector?

    At an apartment complex, there are a bunch of wall connectors (like what is in the tesla store). They were free to charge on them for a few months. On my last visit, I was billed $1.50 to my Tesla account. Apparently these wall connectors are "destination chargers" now capable of billing. This...

    battery charging, is this possible?

    Is it possible to plug your car into a standard 120v or 240v outlet, use the Tesla app on your phone to set when you want the car to charge at what capacity and have the ability in the app to change the capacity? I assume all this is probably possible with a smart charger, but do you have this...

    Battery Range Question

    Hi i am new to EVs. I have a 2018 Model S 75D and started the trip with 89% battery. Temp outside is 41 deg F. When I left I didn't preheat the battery as I didn't think it was that cold out and the car is stored in a garage. The trip was about 52 miles round trip. When I got back to the...

    Charge port issue

    Good Afternoon, I picked up my '21 Model 3 Extended Range AWD last Friday. Up until today, I've used the Superchargers up the road from me, as well as my Mobile Charger at my house with no issues. Today I went to the Supercharger, and the plug wouldn't lock into the car. It just kind of...

    My New Record for Charging Speed

    I was traveling yesterday and stopped at a 250kw charger in Nashville, TN. To my amazement, I hit speeds I used to see with my Model 3 - 173kw/521mph! I am running firmware 48.30. Naturally, it didn't stay at this speed for long but amazing nonetheless. Anybody else seeing speeds like this?

    Calculating Charging Cost at Home

    Newbie here. Got my 2021 Model X on December 10th, 2020. No problems found luckily and having a ball driving now. I am finding a new way to drive thanks to the electric motors making things quick. Not to mention the nice road handling and so much else. So, after many charges now, about every...

    Plz Tesla, Have my app notify me when I forget to charge!

    Until they do, I have to hang this on my wall. It would be so simple to send a notification to you saying something like "Hey you goof! You forgot to charge!" I know this is a first world problem, but for some it may be more serious when you forget to charge. I have a supercharger by my house...

    Battery balancing worked

    My X had 297 miles when new last September but had degraded to 274 miles recently. Seemed like a lot of degradation, so I wanted to see if balancing would work. The info on the forums seems a little old and unclear as to whether it works, so posting to confirm that.... IT DOES! I drove to...

    How far have you gone on 0%?

    Not that I ever plan to get to 0%, but was just interested if anyone has got this low and had to keep on driving? I think I've read on another forum 17 miles before he charged (implying it had further left)! I start sweating if my previous ICE cars have gone into the red, so will probably...
