Hello all,
So I'm sitting here while my Tesla drip charges from a 110V wall outlet.....through the kitchen window (all I have for now at my home)
Ive been reliant on Superchargers since I got the car about a week ago... maybe 4 charges so far
Today after I supercharged at Rockford, IL to 51%
119 miles to my home, I got back on the highway,
set it to cruise at 75mph and started getting warnings within 10 minutes. (you must drive under 70mph to make it to your destination) ...I felt this was a bit pre-mature...
Those eventually went away even though I kept it at 75-80mph.....
I arrived home with around 8% battery remaining at 8:10AM . Maybe 65 degrees F out.
At 1:50pm I got in, it took maybe 30 seconds for the dash and big screen to turn on.....showed 0%
I drove 3 miles roundtrip, the whole while it warning me 'charge immediately to avoid battery damage or car not restarting'
Been charging for 4.5 hours now and shows 1%.
I contacted my Used Delivery Rep and waiting to hear back ab this.
The remote service team she contacted about this issue said they see 6.6%+ non their end.....
First time I supercharged at a 120kw station, left it for 2 hours...got to around 96% charge. I ran it down to 0% before my next charge and it showed that I had used 65kwh since my last charge and maybe 198 miles.... I thought this was pretty low. I mean during that charge I had been flooring it and accelerating hard bc it was my first time really driving the car for fun, but I drove most of the while in a reasonable way..... I can' understand how I only used 65 kWh since being at 96% charge.
I can't help but feel that the range of this car is below what I expected.
What are your thoughts?
