    Model X refresh front door interior latch misdesigned

    I bought my third model X last month, a new 2024. Virtually everyone that gets into the car without instruction. When they are ready to leave they use the emergency latch to open the passenger front doot instead of the electrically actuated "normal" latch/open switch. Doing so can damage the...

    11.3.6 Veering to the right

    My car 2017X has started periodically veering to the right very quickly. It is quick enough that with my hands on the steering wheel I have not always been able to stop it. Very scarry.

    Falcon wing doors red button nonfunctional software 2021.44.30.8

    I noticed both of my falcon-wing doors will not close when pushing the round red button on the door. They work fine when using the switch inside the car on the doorpost. At first, I thought maybe the cold 0 deg F weather was the problem but tried both doors inside the garage, and neither worked...

    I recently had my AP2.0 and MCU1 2017 Model X updated with the AP3 upgrade. Since then the driver's screen in the back of the steering wheel goes to sleep much more than before.

    Tesla ContiSilent tire quote

    Tesla provided me an unsolicited tire quote when I had my model X in for service. I was surprised the quote per tire was within about $10 per tire of what it would cost without shipping to buy them from Tire Rack. I would have never thought to get Tesla pricing on tires but I might well buy them...

    Michelin Cross Climate for Model X?

    Like a lot of folks, I am less than pleased with the OEM Continental tires on the Model X. I will need new tires by the end of the summer and am thinking about Michelin Cross Climate tires. These would be for 3 season use since I have dedicated snow tires for winter. I believe this is a...

    The Tesla Model X needs a third tire wheel option
