    Ear pain/Pressure help

    After all my troubles I am set to trade in my 2018 RWD 3 for a 2022 Awd 3. I am nervous given issues we had with the Y. I went in and the new 3 had gotten delayed in transit so I asked if they had a 7 seat model y to look at. They had a brand new one because the prior loaner crashed...

    Ear pain/Pressure help

    We have test driven Toyota Highlander and Lexus RX 350 so far. Both are nice Lexus looks nicer, but Highlander seems more practical. Lexus has weird interface. May look at other cars. We have person interested in private party purchase next week. On some of the other posts I tried the...

    Ear pain/Pressure help

    Our SC on Friday let us borrow another Y. We are 30 minutes from SC so it is usually a ride that gives time to take effect. I felt symptoms on the way home. I felt more in my right ear. Normally its more in left. I didnt tell my wife and she took for an hour round trip. She also had the...

    Ear pain/Pressure help

    Thanks for the reply. I have tried to do this to some extent. One challenge is that its slow onset and slow to go away. If I drive for 30 minutes I am going to feel for most of the rest of the day. I am a little gun shy too because of this. I have from multiple trips narrowed it down to not...

    Ear pain/Pressure help

    I agree. I took some similar steps, but was less organi Yea, its tough because I want to love it so bad and have an all Tesla garage. I don't want to go back to a ICE, but given how bad the SC has been with 3 week waits every time, pushing back on other small stuff like trim, and not really...

    Ear pain/Pressure help

    We have a local tesla group on Facebook for Charlotte. A few local owners have offered to drive it to see if they can feel it and have a few people offering to buy. They really were rushed and didn't want to give much detail on the customer resolution. Sounds like they have to submit...

    Ear pain/Pressure help

    Feeling really defeated. Got a call from the service center manager. To sum up really all they can do is drive around and can't hear anything. They wasted a *sugar* ton of time hoping the hear something versus trying to take scientific approach. they submitted to customer resolution and will...

    Ear pain/Pressure help

    Mine has been at SC for 5 days now in Charlotte. They gave an update today that they have not been able to recreate issue. I gave a deadline of tomorrow to tell me exactly what they are doing and I want to escalate because this is really not just a minor issue. I feel like *sugar* after driving...

    Ear pain/Pressure help

    The video is pretty accurate to what we heard maybe just a little higher. I can't listen to the video it hurts. I am wondering if it has gotten worse and changed to a frequency I could hear because in a recording I did the day before I couldn't hear it but my ear went from uncomfortable to...

    I have now on multiple occasions had the symptoms in the garage with car parked. Sunday I had the symptoms in my kitchen and walked out to garage to find ac running which was on other side of wall. My wife and sister came out and said they felt like the walked through a wall of pressure and...

    Ear pain/Pressure help

    I agree. It seems that it does come and go. It makes me wonder if its tied to pack cooling which may fluctuate based on trip distance weather etc. My brother is going to borrow I watched the hitch install video and thought of doing this but its a lot of steps. It doesn't look like in thAt...

    Ear pain/Pressure help

    Thanks for the post. This has been where I have spent almost all of my efforts until now. Tesla has realigned the hatch and installed some new interesting rubber pieces beside the tail lights. That didn't help and I have installed an extra seal around the hatch that creates so tight of a seal...

    Ear pain/Pressure help

    I had a chance today to do a little more experimenting. I am starting to feel like the issue is not hatch. I have a hypothesis that the Heat Pump is producing an infrasound that I am picking up on and causing inner ear pain for me my wife and some others. I did some driving with the windows...

    Ear pain/Pressure help

    Its almost that crazy. I have owned and driven some real junkers in my days with never any issue like this. Also this is my 4th Tesla(model S and 2 Model 3s) and baffling that have an issue that is this obscure and causes pain. Every other issue I have had in a car now seems silly.
