Sorry you are a bit disappointed with your expert, but I think 388 total miles is stellar. You can get the stated EPA number if you drive 55-65 miles an hour over an extended period of time, in nice weather. You may even be able to achieve that going closer to 70. When I achieve upper 3’s in...

I suspect the dash freezing was not related to the heat of the unit, but I am not sure. I was quite alarmed about the intense heat of the display when I first got the car. I haven’t had any issues in almost 3 years of ownership and I personally haven’t heard of many problems from other owners...

I don’t think anything can be done to mitigate this. I have also experienced what I think is slightly pronounced wind noise since I have owned the vehicle. I had service investigate it and they claimed the noise is within normal standards. It’s hard for me to determine if I hear more pronounced...

Mods, thank for the edit. I’ll be more tactful in the future.😊😊😊

The vandalism and violence directed at Tesla is unconscionable. Most people can be capable of occasionally doing good things, even people like Musk. Moderator Note: We've edited this post to remove language that could be considered inflammatory and/or personal insults.

Have mercy!!! This is better than the opinion section of the New York Times! Damn.🔥

I know you are not dissatisfied , but I suspect a few others are, judging from some of the posts. That’s fine, I’m just not in that camp.

I am going to sit back and enjoy the drive. I do hope features are updated more rapidly , especially for those who have the valid complaint of sluggish software performance and upgrades. I personally don’t care about hands free driving, although it will be pretty cool. The car’s software needs...

Good point. I am perhaps a bit more nervous due to my distance from a service center. Not sure if that is rational, but it does occasionally cause me dyspepsia.

My lidar gets blocked in bad weather and sometimes for apparently no reason at all. My observation is that the blockage typically clears quite rapidly. It’s a minor annoyance and has only caused me to blurt out certain words.

100 % would love too see an extended warranty offer. I will personally be a bit nervous after the 4 years or 50k miles have elapsed, and would have much greater peace of mind if I could purchase an extended warranty. To be honest, an extended warranty would also boost my confidence in purchasing...

From my understanding, the frunk issue is parts related. If I recall properly, there are some owners who have had the latching mechanism replaced? Please correct me if I am wrong. The door handle seems distinct. Ice ingress has happened to me a few times, but like with any door handles I just...

In my experience, never

Same experience here. Yes, below zero weather kills the range. Thankfully, it’s just a few weeks a year . It’s much worse with short distance drives. Once you have been steadily driving for a bit, the range hit is less dramatic , in my experience.

The native Tidal app is not very useful for anything other than playing music. I find everything on my phone, then make custom play lists that will transfer over to the car. I don’t know if I am missing something , but that is what I have found most useful.
