    Helvetia (& Tesla?) no longer offering extended warranties

    Warranty hasn't appeared in the app for me. I enquired about the extended warranty on 28/01/24 and received an email from Tesla honouring the date of request on the 7/02/24. Warranty expired on the 11/03/24. Purchased extended warranty on 12/04/24. Enquired about the warranty showing up in the...

    Not showing for me either. Might be worth contacting Tesla?

    Helvetia (& Tesla?) no longer offering extended warranties

    Maybe Tesla are allowing owners whose original warranty expired after Helvetia stopped doing them to sign up for the extended warranty from Millennium automatically. Before taking out the warranty today I did reply to the email Tesla sent me on the 7th February about the Sales Journey being...

    Helvetia (& Tesla?) no longer offering extended warranties

    Just purchased 4 years extended warranty for £2773. My original warranty expired on 11th March 2024. I had sent an email to Tesla before that date. The following convinced me: Transferrable to new owner Refundable pro rata (minus 10%) if you don't make a claim Only £13.27 per week for 4 years...

    OK, let's talk about sticking together!

    There are so many Model 3s on the road now that the driver probably doesn't know a Model S from a Ford Sierra.

    [UK] ‘Highland’ order discussion

    I'm tempted by the 0% finance offer, but think I am erring on the side of waiting for Highland. The 0% finance is a great offer, especially when you consider that the interest rate will probably shoot back up to 7.9% or more by the time Highland arrives. But I know that buyer's remorse is very...

    Tesla Offering 0% APR on Model 3

    There might be a clue about the refresh right there: "as long as stocks last".

    Tesla Offering 0% APR on Model 3

    Tempted by this, but as some suggest it's probably a ploy to shift existing inventory before the Highland refresh in the fourth quarter.

    Sentry mode going into panic mode with a passenger in the car. Help!

    You said earlier that your wife had the Tesla app on her phone. If it's an iPhone it could have 'Offload Unused Apps' enabled, which means the Tesla app could have been deactivated if your wife hadn't used it for a while.

    Recently had my Tesla Model 3 LR MOT carried out by Sheltune in Northampton: Sheltune Kettering Road North branch. Tesla Northampton told me that's who they use for MOTs. I printed out the MOT guide I found in another thread and left my jacking pucks in the car, but they must have had their...

    BBC Fake News - Tesla ordered to recall more than a million US cars

    I learnt something new. A recall can be a software update. Still believe that the majority of people reading that headline will think that a million Tesla's will have to visit a service centre to have the problem fixed.

    BBC Fake News - Tesla ordered to recall more than a million US cars

    Tesla ordered to recall more than a million US cars "Tesla is recalling nearly 1.1 million cars in the US because the windows might close too fast and pinch people's fingers." "Tesla says a software update will fix the problem." So not a recall then? Unbelievable!

    Northampton SC

    From the look of the signage plans it looks like they are keeping the glazed showroom that Land Rover used. Are there any other Tesla locations that combine a showroom with a service centre?

    The new SC is quite a distance from the M1, so I assume they will be staying.

    Visited the site yesterday and it looks like work has begun. The following applications can be found on the NBC Planning Website. WNN/2021/0798 WNN/2021/0799 WNN/2022/0139 Downloaded some of the plans and it looks like there might be a showroom as well as a service centre.

    Tesla buying money guilt :-(

    Ok. This is off topic so sorry for detailing the thread. Consider a remote source of energy. Could be coal, gas or oil, or a renewable like solar, wind, hydro or thermal. The location or type of energy makes it financially or logistically unviable to either store or transport the energy...

    Tesla buying money guilt :-(

    You can do whatever you want. Maybe learn some more about Bitcoin mining and energy use. Don't rely on the MSM for any insight regarding crypto.

    Tesla buying money guilt :-(

    Still money to be made in crypto. DEFI is where crypto was maybe 5 years ago. Also look into DAOs. Plenty of info out there when you are ready to jump in.

    Tesla buying money guilt :-(

    At your age and income level and with your amount of investments you should seriously consider putting at least 5 to 10% of your investments into the crypto/DEFI space. NFA. DYOR. Asymmetric risk. Doubt those investments will go to zero, but the upside could be life-changing.
