Hi,
I’ve had my Model Y for about 8 months now. It’s my favorite. But I had a question that I thought it worth asking for due diligence, and to see if anyone has noticed the same behavior.
When I’m in Drive in the Model Y, going uphill or downhill, if I move the stalk with the intent to go into Reverse, but hesitate at the first position for a second or less, it feels like the car goes into Neutral briefly. But then it goes into Reverse.
However, since I'm on an incline or decline, it feels like the car moves slightly forward or backward, depending on the direction of gravity, before engaging in Reverse. It’s tantamount to a very, very short experience of free fall.
It never feels abrupt. It doesn’t happen all the time.
It’s just something I notice on occasion when I’m going uphill or downhill.
Is that normal for a Tesla?
