when iPhone freezes - I can handle it, when $100k car's dash freezes in the middle of a highway, wow, that's very special experience for the money paid.
I have viewed a significant number of Tesla videos. Never witnessed the software anomalies you experienced. Good to know you could improvise with the app. Glad Tesla resolved all your issues! Take Care
You maintained being calm after all those problems on your first long road trip..good for you!! I would have been using bad words after the 2nd trouble on this expensive car. I will never own a total electric car because the issues you just described. Hybrid keeps you going down the road with out getting stuck!!
Is the piano black only for console replacements? The website still shows an option for carbon fiber on the console when customizing the car on Tesla's site.
So many bitter/jealous people on the internet. the dislikes are most likely given at the moment the video started cause the visual didnt match what they expected. -- Anyway thanks for the video, I'm thinking of getting a Model 3 so i needed to watch videos like this. very informative about real world situations. The amount of charging stations in my country arent enough. it also seems like the constant search for charging stations will have the most influence on how i plan my routes. I think i gotta wait for more charging stations. I'll continue to use the train and bicycle. I'm done with mechanical cars. I'll just wait until electric cars have a stronger infrastructure. Thank you for the video!
Now I see there are videos in the news with the Tesla Cars Rear Bumber FALLS OFF within an hour of owning the car? But what do you Tesla Rubes expect for 150,000$ car??? I am sure a software fix will make the bumper magically appear again.
I've done many road trips across US in my gasoline car and the stops that I make on Gas stations have much more to offer. Looks like we are not there yet and it's gonna take a few more years before Tesla will reach that point.
Wow. I'm from Australia and am pleased to see your video. A six hour trip lasting 9 hours, Hmmm, so pleased to see this video as it reminds me of why my Toyota Prado has twin 90 litre diesel tanks. I guess I could tow a trailer behind my Tesla X with a drum of fuel and a big generator. I could then charge up anywhere I parked!
Yeah...no. The idle fees were announced 3 months ago. The details were released. Whatever you have your charge limit set at. The charge station will quit when it hit your requested limit. At that point, after 5 min you are in idle. So you wanna use your phone app to check on your charge status or use the charging time estimated listed on your screen and time your return.
Yeah...no. I haven't received another idle fee notification since. And remember, they are NOT implementing this. And it was announced 3 months ago...where? As an owner I should not have to search the internet and watch the news to see what Tesla is doing. Outside of youtube, I am not on the internet like that and I rarely watch tv...I have RUclips videos to make, no time for that...LoL.
Since I'm interested in EV's(I own a Chevy Bolt), I happen to stumble upon your road trip video. I loved it. I laughed for 23 minutes. Especially when pronounced Syosset. You should be in show business. Thanks for making my day.
Hi, Perhaps I run into you on one of the charging stations. Agree stations in Syosset sucks :) LOL I drive Green Tesla 2013 S60. I have 0 problems with the car. FYI I never had to reset the system knock on wood ... but you can do it while driving it will not affect the driving. Hope your issues will be resolved. Cheers.
Marcin Gornik awww thanks so much! Since Tesla fixed the issue i haven't had any more...so until we see into one another at a charging station...have fun!
Try to reset the screens hold the volume up and the scroll up wheel thing on your wheel at the same time and hold for like 10-15 seconds. Screens will shut off for about 30 seconds then crank back up.
Tip 1: You do know you don't have to use the button on the screen to open charger bay. Just approach the charger bay with the charging nozzle in your hand press the button on top of the charging nozzle and it opens the charger door. Also, in my opinion, it looks like a flash memory problem with UI. Oh, I'm looking at the preview picture, you have the first generation. Those had some issues.
You didn't restart the vehicle correctly. You have to hold down the scroll wheels until the Tesla symbol on the main screen shows up (roughly 20 seconds) what you did was put the car to sleep and turn it back on and not a full restart of all systems.
If they replaced the instrument cluster, how TF did she not restart it correctly? If she put the car to sleep, why did the screens come back up with the errors gone? They would have stayed "ASLEEP" if what you said made any sense.
The fact that you might need to leave a gap between cars at a SuperCharger is garbage. Telsa get your act together, this is NOT ready for prime time. Great to have a real world video
I enjoyed your video. You had problems, worked around them, and told us that Tesla repaired them without a fuss. The display that went bad wasn't made by Tesla, they bought it and put it in the car when they assembled the car. Unfortunately the bad display made the Tesla car look bad too. I leased an EV for 3 years and this video reminded me of how much I had to pay attention to charging. But, as the range keeps increasing on the EV's, charging will take less and less of your attention as you go on long drives. I expect to be driving EV again when the backlog of Model 3 is over. For now I will enjoy the Model S videos.
Yes...overall we had a good time on that trip (that video will come out soon) but one of my subscribers did tell me to take as many road trips as possible to work out these kinks...so glad I did. My car never behaved like that while driving her out and about locally or even to Virginia Beach and Delaware.
A gas station can refill a car in 5 minutes and a Tesla needs 30 minutes ( 80% charge) . This works out approximately at least 8 supercharging stations to replace one gas station.
Lakshman Dalpadado a car needs to be filled at a gas station every time...my tesla only needs it during road trips, which are optional...yet me and all my friends choose to do them in the Tesla...hmmm i wonder why? #EVsAreMoreFun
The phone app will let you know, when your car has finished charging. That idle fee has been in effect for several months, now. Also, the mobile Tesla service units should be able to take care of that, at your home or work.
Hi...that was the one and only time I received a notification about the idle fee. I did check with the service station and they said not to worry about it...it is currently not being implemented although it is still the idea :-)
Your navi volume will adjust when it's talking and you change the volume. I sometimes wonder what happened to my navi volume when I thought I was changing my music volume.
Hmmm...that could have been it, perhaps. But I really think it had something to do with the instrument panel...my car hasn't had those issues since and I've been on a few more road trips since this as well :-)
You two are fun to watch, makes me wish I was on the trip with you! Clever idea to use the phone app to see your speed and charge level when the instrument screen froze.
Yes, I know that buying used comes with risks...that is why I only buy through dealerships and if the vehicles come with full warranties. Luckily for me it's a risk I can afford to take.
Question if I don't have a garage it's pretty pointless to get a Tesla right? Superstations aren't an issue here in NY but it'll be pretty in convenient to travel 30mins from my house everytime I need to fill up once a week.
I'm not a big fan of inconvenience so if I didn't have a garage I wouldn't have gotten one. I know there are people in California who own one and it seems to work for them...so I don't know, I think you'd have to talk to someone who is in that situation and making it work.
This was fun and painful to watch. I've had (and loved) my Tesla Model S 90D for almost 2 years -- bought new. I find that it is best to call Tesla whenever I have issues -- even when traveling-- and not try to figure it all out alone. Long road trips can be taxing so it is good to do it with friends in the beginning. You'll learn to research the Superchargers before leaving. Use PlugShare! Also, I encourage you to spend some time on the Tesla forums because many of the things you experienced have been addressed and debated. Your hair looks great! Enjoy your Tesla experience going forward
The problem is you do not understand how retarded your comment sounds like.One day you will when this technology will be on par with ICE cars now you all look like dumb clowns.These cars are only for city driving and no more than 50 miles max 80 that is it.Using Superchargers going to kill the battery in just few years and if you are out of warranty good luck buying a new one.But Elon the con is lying to you.Supercharger will destroy your car really fast.It is called Supercharger gate.
For the future if your screen freezes, you don't need to stop to reboot the screens. You can reboot when you are driving with no issues. That was a more common problem in the old days, but it has been a few years since I had to reboot mine. Twice in one trip seems unusual, so it was good that Tesla replaced yours. As for SuperCharging, you should be aware of the A/B pairing of the chargers. You could have unplugged one of the ServiceCenter cars that was paired with your charger and then plugged it in again when you left.
I just found your video and I watched it twice just to get a handle on all of the issues that you were having while on your road trip I noticed that you are the second owner of your Tesla I wasn't paying close attention to which model year it is but as I remember when when The Cars first hit the market all of the early adopters or owners basically we're beta testers of the car so a lot of the issues that you were having were used as a way for the company to iron out issues that would come up. In real-world testing the gauges in the instrument cluster showing how much of a charge you may have had along with the spedometer could have been quite unnerving on a long road trip but it sold you on the long your trip. And it went well I enjoyed the video I don't recall seeing how many miles you have on the car or how long you've had it hope to see you do an update when the car reaches 50000 miles to give everyone an idea how well the car is holding up at that point I have not watched your other videos but this one was quite interesting hoping to see you update soon but until then Happy Motoring. And keep the videos coming thanks.
Thank you :-) I think the car had under 40k miles on it...I believe I am right at 50k right now. Haven't ran into any issues since they fixed that one.
Yes...and it is all fixed...good as new! My service station got me in real quick (actually I gave them the day I was available being my life be on the busiest) and a day and a half later my car was ready :-)
Question: Does the glass roof ever allow it to get too hot in there? You guys look comfortable and you never complain about the heat. How do you like it ?
Nope the glass roof does not make the car hot. The car consistently regulates and maintains the temperature throughout the cabin...I absolutely love this car...I am not a car person but this is the best car I've ever had. All my guy friends seem pretty impressed with it too.
One thing about having to take a break ever 200 miles on a road trip is that I NEVER will ever have to take the time to get gas at a gas station when I use the car around home. I simply plug it in at home a couple of times a week. It is like having a gas station at home, and less hassle than my cellphone charging which needs it every day.
How to fix the charged Tesla in a charging stall(idle charge fee): Eject the charging cable (James bond style) Summon the car to an empty slot across from the charging stall. Tesla can do this. As pretty as the piano black is, I cannot stand it. Every little speck of dust shows up on it. (My dash has it)
I agree...I originally thought I wanted Piano Black but then got Carbon Fiber and wouldn't have it any other way. But you don't see the idle charge fee anymore, right? I haven't seen it since.
What year is your Tesla? And do you enjoy those seats? I'm looking at getting a 2014 Model S and wondering how those seats feel. I wonder if they replace something, like the instrument cluster on an older model S that ran the older instrument cluster, do they "repair" the cluster with a new one?
I've been looking at Tesla since the roadster. I finally just ordered an S 75 and waiting for my late September delivery. I'm happy I waited though, since I won't have to go through all of these beta issues you were having. You seem like you are pretty close to my area. Is there any Tesla groups around the area?
Hi Lebron...I have no idea if there are any Tesla groups around the DC area...probably so, but I haven't looked. But yeah, I hear the newer cars have a lot of the kinks worked out...not perfect but certainly better than any other car on the market (in my opinion, of course).
in 50 years we will explain to our grandkids why we call the acceleration pedal "gas" and they will probably we amazed. Thats of course if there will be any pedals left in a car by that time.
Thank you for watching! I purchased mine pre-own and it had been in a fender-bender previously (gasp)...I did this knowing the risk I was taking plus Tesla backed it with a full warranty and have given me impeccable service. I haven't had any issues since and I truly love this car :-)
Teslas are kind of like cell phones they have to be reset sometimes.. I THINK you just hold the two buttons on the steering wheel down for a few seconds and it resets the software... (ask tesla to confirm)
Yup...someone left a comment saying I did it wrong...so I called Tesla to confirm and learned: 1. Holding it down until the screen goes black is a soft reset. 2. Holding it down until the screen goes black AND the tesla emblem appears is a hard reset. 3. You can indeed do this while driving (though they don't recommend it for safety purposes). :-)
Although I love Tesla cars, I couldn't image having to drive one or any other electric car long distance. Having to stop and wait at a charging station vs a ICE car, where I would be gone in three minutes.
I never, ever stopped for gas and was gone in 3 minutes. And like everything else, EVs are a preference...just like thong underwear...I'd never say the kind of underwear I wear are for everyone (uh, and no I couldn't find a better example...LoL).
Hmmm...I'm not sure. They probably do. I do know you can call the service station whenever and they will give you great tips over the phone. The software downloads are pushed automatically (the car alerts you when one is ready and you choose when to accept it).
I would like to know the costs of all of these Tesla headaches. The purchase price: Down payment n monthly payment... Cost of insurance, etc. I've been contemplating getting a vehicle, and didn't want to be stuck in the stone age, with a regular "gas" car.
Hahaha...I have an entire video on it - its in the Tesla playlist. I still have the same Tesla and I absolutely love it. My car insurance is $87 a month for full coverage. And I paid about $54K for it (that includes title & registration stuff), I took out about a $20K loan and paid that off in 4 months. Supercharging is free forever (because this car came with it back when they had free supercharging for life). The car was covered under warranty so didn't pay anything for repairs.
Makes since about over idling to keep people from going away too long. You know how people chill at gas station pumps and go inside....then others in your case cant charge. Its more important than running in the station after pumping with regular gas.
Man... I just read through some of your comments. Sheesh! I admire your resolve and kind attitude, and THAT my dear, is why you have a Tesla and most of these trolls on the bus! Keep up the good work! Don't let folks discourage you!
Yeah, well the more popular you get, the worse it'll be unfortunately. My last channel I got to about 8K subscribers in about 6 months... I just stopped reading the comments. It was too stressful for me. My wife read them though, lol. She nosey!
It seems like "range anxiety" is not a thing of the past even when charging stations are fairly plentiful. I was watching videos of someone driving both Chevy Bolt and Nissan Leaf vehicles and even though he never failed to keep the car charged it seemed like he spent an inordinate amount of time finding chargers.
Hi Geoff...now that I've owned the car for over a year...I do not experience range anxiety that way I once did. Just like a tank of gas, I know exactly how far 7% on the battery goes.
Thanks for sharing your journey with us. Next time check out the Menlo Park Mall. My family and I live near the Edison charger - I think you would really like the shopping, and food, at the mall. Your videos are great!
Your Tesla App will tell you when your car is done charging, which is really nice. And it shouldn't charge you if there is another bay open. Thanks for your video.
Hi there. It looks like you had some pretty bad luck on that trip! Just a tip for you. If you need to reset the dash again, you can do that whilst driving (still by holding down the scrollwheels). I can confirm that in my 2017 MS 90D, it is 100% safe. Why not test it out in a quiet street at low speed before you need it again so you have the confidence that you can do it on the freeway at any time you need in the future. It's also a good idea to do it once a month to keep things working nicely as well as after any software update.
Ah...yeah...didn't want to try it while driving...and I know I didn't have to go to a Tesla Charging station to do it...these early days of owning a Tesla, I just like getting familiar with where the charging stations are and getting to know the lay of the land :-) Thanks for the tip.
The Fun and Budget Act Yep, it's a learning curve. They are just a big computer on wheels so plenty to learn. Way more so than a Lexus or other ICE car. Have a look at www.teslamotorsclub.com There is plenty of info on there and some really useful guides what will answer a load of questions that you don't know even exist yet! My personal tip: try to keep the battery between 20 and 80 percent charged. That will keep it in the best condition. The worst would be to charge it to 100% and leave it sitting somewhere hot. That's the same for any lithium battery, not just a Tesla.
Electric cars have a long way to catch up to sport luxuary internal combustion engine vehicles... In the same time you took on your road trip at top speed I would travel 1440 miles. Traveling on the autobhan at 155mph my car would take 3 hours 50 minutes to cover the 622miles; not 9 hours. @0.33 tonnes CO2. my car gets to 60 in 3.2 seconds top speed 195 mph and I would need only need to refuel once for 622miles... weight 0.9 tonnes ; Tesla Model S 90D: 90kWh battery, dual-motor, all-wheel drive (288-mile range, 4.2 seconds 0-60mph, 155mph top speed, weighs 2.5 tonnes. Tesla cars need power stations for charging and so 622 miles is 0.28 tonnes CO2 ) Which one would you choose?
The Fun and Budget Act, I'm not sure if you have heard of the proper way to use the Supercharger Network. When there are multiple cars at the Supercharger, you need to pick a number that no one is using. All Superchargers have a Number and A/B. So if someone is on 1A then you can choose any other number other than 1. If you choose 1B you will be sharing the charge with 1A and both cars will charge at a lower speed. You can't really avoid this if there are a few cars already charging.
Good, informative video. Curious to know can a Tesla, or any EV, charge on any brand's charging station? Also, do EV batteries degrade over time (example: 1st year gets 265 max distance... year 6 gets 218 max distance) similar to cell phones?
Shows why Telsa along with other EV makers must make a deal to put at least one "Supercharger" at every possible 7-11 type store and whatever independent gas dealers they can immediately. The SuperCharger network is not adequate and keeps the Telsa from being ready for prime time.
It's all the cars . It lowers the charging rate it's only like 120 m with no cars so it's 60 m with all cars . So you have too wate longer . So you can charge to get too the other charge are with out cars
Spending almost 20 thousand dollars for a down payments to drive a Tesla electric car.But all Tesla cars any models have too many lockup and freeze in all their gauges.Needed to many new softwares update.In a way the Tesla company are using us for a testing ground for their electric cars products.
If you want to get to those shops and back within the time the car takes to charge you're going to have to walk very fast or keep a fold-up electric bicycle in your car.
Really makes me glad I bought a Volt instead. 90% of the time I don't burn any gas and it's much easier to find a gas station on a road trip. Looks like you weren't in a hurry to get anywhere. Those problems would be really stressful if you had a schedule to keep.
It's 4:30am i haven't followed any of your videos for a while. I am an automotive enthusiast so I generally search for automotive content. I keep seeing Tesla video's pop up in my feed and a though about you. My favorite RUclipsr who owns a Tesla. The last video I viewed was your trip to Spain. Congratulations on your new channel I was inspired to want to attempt my own automotive channel I haven't come up with a name for the channel but you are part of my template. Keep up the awesome work Live well.
Just found your channel and I've been enjoying binge watching your vids! Thanks so much for sharing your Tesla road trip experience. I have been looking into a Model X but, based on your video, I think I'll rent a regular gas car for my once a year road trip.
Yeah...depending on lifestyle and personality, Tesla's won't be for everyone (just like city living vs country living aren't for everyone)...but keep in mind, my car is older (2013) and this trip was the only time I had these issues (I've taken more trips since)...I have yet to run into a Tesla owner who regrets buying the car...and as a Tesla community we find that we actually take more road trips with these cars. :-) And thank you so much for watching my videos [insert hearts here].
Awww thanks for responding. I can't say that it's out of the running. I still think it's in the running even though my husband thinks it's ugly. Lol. I think I will look into the pre-owned Tesla world as well. I love technology of them.
Lanika T i'm going to do a Paid Off Tesla video where I think i'll finally reveal how much i paid for my car...i try to keep it as real as possible in this channel...the good, the bad, and the hot damn mess of it all 😊
this is the very reason why i refuse to get a electric or hybrid car. The technology has been rushed to production without adequate research and testing. Furthermore, it is a front wheel drive car!!! it makes no sense to me to pay that much for a front wheel drive car when you get a all wheel drive vehicle that has better range. my opinion.
Thanks so much for uploading this video! I'm in the market to buy a used Tesla Model S (one with unlimited supercharging) and I definitely am glad you uploaded this because I had no idea these issues existed so it's good to know going in what to look out for when buying one of these cars. Have you had any of these issues after you brought it in to the Tesla dealership?
Road to the 2 Comma Club no...but i hadn't had these issues before either. What i love is if you buy a car with less than 50k miles, tesla includes a full warranty. They have been super responsive to me...and they have given me new brakes and rotors, instrument cluster and center console. I feel they stand behind their work and most importantly they listen. Remember to use a referral code for the $1000 discount.
To be honest, I've heard there were quite a few issues with earlier model S cars. Think all are ironed out from later ones. I do like that tesla change stuff
I don't think resetting is a common thing (like you something about that doesn't sound right to me)...but according to some of the people on this thread...it is.
I don’t believe she has sun shades attached to the interior of the panoramic glass roof. I have seen roof shades available at the Evannex web site. Go to. Model S Interior Accessories Roof Shades The web site mentions the roof shades are only available for cars with the panoramic roof and not the all glass roof.
Teslas are amongst the safest cars on the road. However, if you don’t wear your seatbelt (the most basic safety device in any car), you’re still going to end up seriously injured or dead should you be in a bad car crash.
That circle going around and Around. I get that when i Go to grocery store. Someone. Bugs my card. Taking a long. Time to Approve. Then it say. Denied. Even when i had, Money on Card. I call it blocking. So, i keep a Payment on another card. Someone, in your machine. Put a Repeat Signal. Til it goes. Online and denied. Said people do that. It not machine. Fault.
That's exactly why I wont get an electric car right now. maybe in about 10 years or so if I'm still on this earth living. I do admire you for not doing the typical thing in buying a gas powered vehicle.
That vehicle is made to be driven at high speeds...it goes from 0 to 60 in like 4 seconds. Tesla replaced my cars instrument cluster...haven't had an issue since.
I am not lucky enough to have a Tesla (and they don't take food stamps yet) but I would stop to eat before I go to a supercharger station and also take a jar of peanut butter along just in case there are no restaurants open there.
After watching this video, I would be highly reluctant to buy one. I am a fan of the technology and concept, but the company must deliver a reliable product. Time and money: cannot tolerate wasting either of them, especially TIME!
Totally understand...I think for most who own this car there's not really an issue with time...it actually saves time (you never have to stop for gas again in your day to day life)...now what you see in my Tesla videos are the every so often road trips that I go on on purpose simply because I find it fun to drive the Tesla long distances.
I'm guessing it told you that time to charge to complete your journey, but it would leave you stranded on completion. Probably okay if you are heading home.
When you journey back, it'll map your route for you again. Also by the time people get to where they are getting to, they may have a charger at the location and we can also plug into a regular outlet as well.
Loved watching this. You are super cute. The Syosset charger is horrendous. Everyone complains about how slow these chargers are. Tesla has several other superchargers going online along the Long Island Expressway by the end of the year. Let's hope it actually happens!
I just bought a Tesla... drive a TON!!! The young guys at the dealership told me I would be fine LOL! Here is hoping Tesla has fixed some of these issues... I have been super lucky with all my cars and have never had issues. Thanks for the video.
Thank you for sharing your experiences with us. Would you mind writing that how much money did you pay to the Tesla dealership for the fixing the issues in your car?
when iPhone freezes - I can handle it, when $100k car's dash freezes in the middle of a highway, wow, that's very special experience for the money paid.
I have viewed a significant number of Tesla videos. Never witnessed the software anomalies you experienced. Good to know you could improvise with the app. Glad Tesla resolved all your issues! Take Care
You maintained being calm after all those problems on your first long road trip..good for you!! I would have been using bad words after the 2nd trouble on this expensive car. I will never own a total electric car because the issues you just described. Hybrid keeps you going down the road with out getting stuck!!
Look at it this way...If a guy comes up to you with the gas can hustle...you can say "We don't do petrol - DUDE!"
You can reset the consul and stuff while you’re driving you will still be able to break and accelerate the screens will just restart
Yes, the entire center console was replaced. Carbon Fiber trim is no longer available, only in Piano Black now.
Ha! Look at that...ANSWERS...LoL #LoveIt
Is the piano black only for console replacements? The website still shows an option for carbon fiber on the console when customizing the car on Tesla's site.
So many bitter/jealous people on the internet.
the dislikes are most likely given at the moment the video started cause the visual didnt match what they expected.
--
Anyway thanks for the video, I'm thinking of getting a Model 3 so i needed to watch videos like this. very informative about real world situations.
The amount of charging stations in my country arent enough.
it also seems like the constant search for charging stations will have the most influence on how i plan my routes.
I think i gotta wait for more charging stations. I'll continue to use the train and bicycle. I'm done with mechanical cars.
I'll just wait until electric cars have a stronger infrastructure.
Thank you for the video!
Now I see there are videos in the news with the Tesla Cars Rear Bumber FALLS OFF within an hour of owning the car? But what do you Tesla Rubes expect for 150,000$ car??? I am sure a software fix will make the bumper magically appear again.
Googled rear bumper falls off and got results for a Honda, Prius, Acura and Model 3 #Shrugs
I've done many road trips across US in my gasoline car and the stops that I make on Gas stations have much more to offer.
Looks like we are not there yet and it's gonna take a few more years before Tesla will reach that point.
This gives me a whole new appreciation for my gas powered car. I will not take it for granted.
Wow. I'm from Australia and am pleased to see your video. A six hour trip lasting 9 hours, Hmmm, so pleased to see this video as it reminds me of why my Toyota Prado has twin 90 litre diesel tanks.
I guess I could tow a trailer behind my Tesla X with a drum of fuel and a big generator. I could then charge up anywhere I parked!
Yeah...no. The idle fees were announced 3 months ago. The details were released. Whatever you have your charge limit set at. The charge station will quit when it hit your requested limit. At that point, after 5 min you are in idle. So you wanna use your phone app to check on your charge status or use the charging time estimated listed on your screen and time your return.
Yeah...no. I haven't received another idle fee notification since. And remember, they are NOT implementing this. And it was announced 3 months ago...where? As an owner I should not have to search the internet and watch the news to see what Tesla is doing. Outside of youtube, I am not on the internet like that and I rarely watch tv...I have RUclips videos to make, no time for that...LoL.
Since I'm interested in EV's(I own a Chevy Bolt), I happen to stumble upon your road trip video. I loved it. I laughed for 23 minutes. Especially when pronounced Syosset. You should be in show business. Thanks for making my day.
David Diaz thank you so much...in light of some of the other comments i receive on this video...this comment made my day :-)
Hi, Perhaps I run into you on one of the charging stations. Agree stations in Syosset sucks :) LOL I drive Green Tesla 2013 S60. I have 0 problems with the car. FYI I never had to reset the system knock on wood ... but you can do it while driving it will not affect the driving. Hope your issues will be resolved. Cheers.
Marcin Gornik awww thanks so much! Since Tesla fixed the issue i haven't had any more...so until we see into one another at a charging station...have fun!
Great video, thanks for all the info. Love your personality, fun to watch!
You can send a bug report to Tesla when these issues comes up. Usually they fix these issues very fast. Thanks for the great video.
Thanks for Watching!
Try to reset the screens hold the volume up and the scroll up wheel thing on your wheel at the same time and hold for like 10-15 seconds. Screens will shut off for about 30 seconds then crank back up.
Tip 1: You do know you don't have to use the button on the screen to open charger bay. Just approach the charger bay with the charging nozzle in your hand press the button on top of the charging nozzle and it opens the charger door. Also, in my opinion, it looks like a flash memory problem with UI. Oh, I'm looking at the preview picture, you have the first generation. Those had some issues.
Thanks...I knew that but kinda forgot about that and uh, being self-taught and all (LoL)...yeah.
You didn't restart the vehicle correctly. You have to hold down the scroll wheels until the Tesla symbol on the main screen shows up (roughly 20 seconds) what you did was put the car to sleep and turn it back on and not a full restart of all systems.
If they replaced the instrument cluster, how TF did she not restart it correctly? If she put the car to sleep, why did the screens come back up with the errors gone? They would have stayed "ASLEEP" if what you said made any sense.
don you restart it with ctrl alt delete ? :)
Issue 2. Are you sharing a charger with another car? ie 2a & 2b? Its faster if you try to leave a gap between cars at S/charging bays.
The charging station was full.
The fact that you might need to leave a gap between cars at a SuperCharger is garbage. Telsa get your act together, this is NOT ready for prime time. Great to have a real world video
I enjoyed your video. You had problems, worked around them, and told us that Tesla repaired them without a fuss. The display that went bad wasn't made by Tesla, they bought it and put it in the car when they assembled the car. Unfortunately the bad display made the Tesla car look bad too. I leased an EV for 3 years and this video reminded me of how much I had to pay attention to charging. But, as the range keeps increasing on the EV's, charging will take less and less of your attention as you go on long drives. I expect to be driving EV again when the backlog of Model 3 is over. For now I will enjoy the Model S videos.
Very good video. Gives an honest REAL experience.
Love the hair...I felt so sad for yall...I'm glad you saw the positive in the situation with your subscriber..
Yes...overall we had a good time on that trip (that video will come out soon) but one of my subscribers did tell me to take as many road trips as possible to work out these kinks...so glad I did. My car never behaved like that while driving her out and about locally or even to Virginia Beach and Delaware.
its the whole screen thats freezing, not just a bunch of little items
In this case the entire instrument cluster froze, but on the main screen...the navigation failed to work.
A gas station can refill a car in 5 minutes and a Tesla needs 30 minutes ( 80% charge) . This works out approximately at least 8 supercharging stations to replace one gas station.
Lakshman Dalpadado a car needs to be filled at a gas station every time...my tesla only needs it during road trips, which are optional...yet me and all my friends choose to do them in the Tesla...hmmm i wonder why? #EVsAreMoreFun
The phone app will let you know, when your car has finished charging. That idle fee has been in effect for several months, now. Also, the mobile Tesla service units should be able to take care of that, at your home or work.
Hi...that was the one and only time I received a notification about the idle fee. I did check with the service station and they said not to worry about it...it is currently not being implemented although it is still the idea :-)
Do you think you would buy it again if you could redo it?? My good friend got one and he has had a lot little promblems break on it
little nick actually i would...these issues and all.
Your navi volume will adjust when it's talking and you change the volume. I sometimes wonder what happened to my navi volume when I thought I was changing my music volume.
Hmmm...that could have been it, perhaps. But I really think it had something to do with the instrument panel...my car hasn't had those issues since and I've been on a few more road trips since this as well :-)
You two are fun to watch, makes me wish I was on the trip with you!
Clever idea to use the phone app to see your speed and charge level when the instrument screen froze.
remember you bought the car USED. thats why the other owner wanted to get rid of it. its problems
Yes, I know that buying used comes with risks...that is why I only buy through dealerships and if the vehicles come with full warranties. Luckily for me it's a risk I can afford to take.
Question if I don't have a garage it's pretty pointless to get a Tesla right? Superstations aren't an issue here in NY but it'll be pretty in convenient to travel 30mins from my house everytime I need to fill up once a week.
I'm not a big fan of inconvenience so if I didn't have a garage I wouldn't have gotten one. I know there are people in California who own one and it seems to work for them...so I don't know, I think you'd have to talk to someone who is in that situation and making it work.
This channel seems to talk about his experience owning without a garage: ruclips.net/video/MReOsBAHzOY/видео.html
The Fun and Budget Act Thank you
It's ridiculous that had to reset the cockpit computer every now and then while driving. Software bug or feature?
She's using it wrong obviously ;-)
I'm an IT professional. Your car needs a new ICE car.
This was a great video to watch. Glad you got things resolved and held your composure during your trip even with the issues.
This was fun and painful to watch. I've had (and loved) my Tesla Model S 90D for almost 2 years -- bought new. I find that it is best to call Tesla whenever I have issues -- even when traveling-- and not try to figure it all out alone. Long road trips can be taxing so it is good to do it with friends in the beginning. You'll learn to research the Superchargers before leaving. Use PlugShare! Also, I encourage you to spend some time on the Tesla forums because many of the things you experienced have been addressed and debated.
Your hair looks great! Enjoy your Tesla experience going forward
The problem is you do not understand how retarded your comment sounds like.One day you will when this technology will be on par with ICE cars now you all look like dumb clowns.These cars are only for city driving and no more than 50 miles max 80 that is it.Using Superchargers going to kill the battery in just few years and if you are out of warranty good luck buying a new one.But Elon the con is lying to you.Supercharger will destroy your car really fast.It is called Supercharger gate.
+SCORINGAUDIO R Wow just WOW... good info, tfs!!
For the future if your screen freezes, you don't need to stop to reboot the screens. You can reboot when you are driving with no issues. That was a more common problem in the old days, but it has been a few years since I had to reboot mine. Twice in one trip seems unusual, so it was good that Tesla replaced yours.
As for SuperCharging, you should be aware of the A/B pairing of the chargers. You could have unplugged one of the ServiceCenter cars that was paired with your charger and then plugged it in again when you left.
Thanks...I certainly didn't know you could reboot while driving. At the one supercharger that took forever...it was full...not a single empty charger.
Can't your P85 do over the air updates? It looks like you have older version software.
Yes...it does over the air updates.
Thanks for clear honest video.
and thank you for watching :-)
Not confusing at all,Tesla are on the ball to fix probs so quick,good on them,thanks lovely ladies
I just found your video and I watched it twice just to get a handle on all of the issues that you were having while on your road trip I noticed that you are the second owner of your Tesla I wasn't paying close attention to which model year it is but as I remember when when The Cars first hit the market all of the early adopters or owners basically we're beta testers of the car so a lot of the issues that you were having were used as a way for the company to iron out issues that would come up. In real-world testing the gauges in the instrument cluster showing how much of a charge you may have had along with the spedometer could have been quite unnerving on a long road trip but it sold you on the long your trip. And it went well I enjoyed the video I don't recall seeing how many miles you have on the car or how long you've had it hope to see you do an update when the car reaches 50000 miles to give everyone an idea how well the car is holding up at that point I have not watched your other videos but this one was quite interesting hoping to see you update soon but until then Happy Motoring. And keep the videos coming thanks.
Thank you :-) I think the car had under 40k miles on it...I believe I am right at 50k right now. Haven't ran into any issues since they fixed that one.
Sorry that you had a bad supercharger and/or system issue. Have you gotten it checked out yet??
Yes...and it is all fixed...good as new! My service station got me in real quick (actually I gave them the day I was available being my life be on the busiest) and a day and a half later my car was ready :-)
Question: Does the glass roof ever allow it to get too hot in there? You guys look comfortable and you never complain about the heat. How do you like it ?
Nope the glass roof does not make the car hot. The car consistently regulates and maintains the temperature throughout the cabin...I absolutely love this car...I am not a car person but this is the best car I've ever had. All my guy friends seem pretty impressed with it too.
One thing about having to take a break ever 200 miles on a road trip is that I NEVER will ever have to take the time to get gas at a gas station when I use the car around home. I simply plug it in at home a couple of times a week. It is like having a gas station at home, and less hassle than my cellphone charging which needs it every day.
How to fix the charged Tesla in a charging stall(idle charge fee):
Eject the charging cable (James bond style)
Summon the car to an empty slot across from the charging stall.
Tesla can do this.
As pretty as the piano black is, I cannot stand it. Every little speck of dust shows up on it. (My dash has it)
I agree...I originally thought I wanted Piano Black but then got Carbon Fiber and wouldn't have it any other way. But you don't see the idle charge fee anymore, right? I haven't seen it since.
What's Assillera-en and stuff @ min 2:14? lol
What year is your Tesla? And do you enjoy those seats? I'm looking at getting a 2014 Model S and wondering how those seats feel. I wonder if they replace something, like the instrument cluster on an older model S that ran the older instrument cluster, do they "repair" the cluster with a new one?
Jonathan Jung mine is a 2013...the seats are gray leather and i like them...more comfortable than the seats in my lexus or any other car I've had.
It was cause there was so many people charging at the same time. You need to look at the miles per hr that your charge rate is
I've been looking at Tesla since the roadster. I finally just ordered an S 75 and waiting for my late September delivery. I'm happy I waited though, since I won't have to go through all of these beta issues you were having. You seem like you are pretty close to my area. Is there any Tesla groups around the area?
Hi Lebron...I have no idea if there are any Tesla groups around the DC area...probably so, but I haven't looked. But yeah, I hear the newer cars have a lot of the kinks worked out...not perfect but certainly better than any other car on the market (in my opinion, of course).
The Fun and Budget Act yes, but most of the issues i saw on your videos should be able to get corrected from the over the air updates
Oh and hi right back at cha!
They fixed the issue...the instrument cluster was replaced.
in 50 years we will explain to our grandkids why we call the acceleration pedal "gas" and they will probably we amazed. Thats of course if there will be any pedals left in a car by that time.
Great video, thanks for sharing your experience, with new products there are growing pains but the price point of Tesla's make issues hard to digest!
Thank you for watching! I purchased mine pre-own and it had been in a fender-bender previously (gasp)...I did this knowing the risk I was taking plus Tesla backed it with a full warranty and have given me impeccable service. I haven't had any issues since and I truly love this car :-)
Teslas are kind of like cell phones they have to be reset sometimes.. I THINK you just hold the two buttons on the steering wheel down for a few seconds and it resets the software... (ask tesla to confirm)
Yup...someone left a comment saying I did it wrong...so I called Tesla to confirm and learned: 1. Holding it down until the screen goes black is a soft reset. 2. Holding it down until the screen goes black AND the tesla emblem appears is a hard reset. 3. You can indeed do this while driving (though they don't recommend it for safety purposes). :-)
Although I love Tesla cars, I couldn't image having to drive one or any other electric car long distance. Having to stop and wait at a charging station vs a ICE car, where I would be gone in three minutes.
I never, ever stopped for gas and was gone in 3 minutes. And like everything else, EVs are a preference...just like thong underwear...I'd never say the kind of underwear I wear are for everyone (uh, and no I couldn't find a better example...LoL).
There isn't no issue for #2 because, Its set to close of Fully Charge.
Does Tesla come with Roadside Assistance? There should be a number. Maybe you needed a software download.
Hmmm...I'm not sure. They probably do. I do know you can call the service station whenever and they will give you great tips over the phone. The software downloads are pushed automatically (the car alerts you when one is ready and you choose when to accept it).
I would like to know the costs of all of these Tesla headaches. The purchase price: Down payment n monthly payment... Cost of insurance, etc. I've been contemplating getting a vehicle, and didn't want to be stuck in the stone age, with a regular "gas" car.
Hahaha...I have an entire video on it - its in the Tesla playlist. I still have the same Tesla and I absolutely love it. My car insurance is $87 a month for full coverage. And I paid about $54K for it (that includes title & registration stuff), I took out about a $20K loan and paid that off in 4 months. Supercharging is free forever (because this car came with it back when they had free supercharging for life). The car was covered under warranty so didn't pay anything for repairs.
The Ice Cream and Coffee dance was pretty hot :)
Makes since about over idling to keep people from going away too long. You know how people chill at gas station pumps and go inside....then others in your case cant charge. Its more important than running in the station after pumping with regular gas.
Man... I just read through some of your comments. Sheesh! I admire your resolve and kind attitude, and THAT my dear, is why you have a Tesla and most of these trolls on the bus! Keep up the good work! Don't let folks discourage you!
Thank you so much...this means a lot because yes, some of these people are going in...whew! And the comments you see are the "good" ones.
Yeah, well the more popular you get, the worse it'll be unfortunately. My last channel I got to about 8K subscribers in about 6 months... I just stopped reading the comments. It was too stressful for me. My wife read them though, lol. She nosey!
LoL...what's your channel's name(s)?
Just click my name! LOL, I'm starting over but I have a few up.
No we just have cars that don't waste hours of our lives in run down industrial areas.
Sage that car! 😬I hope you have an update of this video, I need to know what happened from there.
I have a Tesla Playlist - all videos about my car should be there.
It seems like "range anxiety" is not a thing of the past even when charging stations are fairly plentiful. I was watching videos of someone driving both Chevy Bolt and Nissan Leaf vehicles and even though he never failed to keep the car charged it seemed like he spent an inordinate amount of time finding chargers.
Hi Geoff...now that I've owned the car for over a year...I do not experience range anxiety that way I once did. Just like a tank of gas, I know exactly how far 7% on the battery goes.
Fair enough.
Thanks for sharing your journey with us. Next time check out the Menlo Park Mall. My family and I live near the Edison charger - I think you would really like the shopping, and food, at the mall. Your videos are great!
Thank you...that is so good to know!
Your Tesla App will tell you when your car is done charging, which is really nice. And it shouldn't charge you if there is another bay open. Thanks for your video.
Thank you for watching :-)
Hi there. It looks like you had some pretty bad luck on that trip!
Just a tip for you. If you need to reset the dash again, you can do that whilst driving (still by holding down the scrollwheels). I can confirm that in my 2017 MS 90D, it is 100% safe. Why not test it out in a quiet street at low speed before you need it again so you have the confidence that you can do it on the freeway at any time you need in the future.
It's also a good idea to do it once a month to keep things working nicely as well as after any software update.
Ah...yeah...didn't want to try it while driving...and I know I didn't have to go to a Tesla Charging station to do it...these early days of owning a Tesla, I just like getting familiar with where the charging stations are and getting to know the lay of the land :-) Thanks for the tip.
The Fun and Budget Act Yep, it's a learning curve. They are just a big computer on wheels so plenty to learn. Way more so than a Lexus or other ICE car. Have a look at www.teslamotorsclub.com
There is plenty of info on there and some really useful guides what will answer a load of questions that you don't know even exist yet!
My personal tip: try to keep the battery between 20 and 80 percent charged. That will keep it in the best condition. The worst would be to charge it to 100% and leave it sitting somewhere hot. That's the same for any lithium battery, not just a Tesla.
Can't you call Tesla for a remote diagnostics?
Absolutely! I know that now but didn't know that then and for me during this video, as long as I could drive it and get back home..I was fine.
Electric cars have a long way to catch up to sport luxuary internal combustion engine vehicles... In the same time you took on your road trip at top speed I would travel 1440 miles. Traveling on the autobhan at 155mph my car would take 3 hours 50 minutes to cover the 622miles; not 9 hours. @0.33 tonnes CO2. my car gets to 60 in 3.2 seconds top speed 195 mph and I would need only need to refuel once for 622miles... weight 0.9 tonnes ; Tesla Model S 90D: 90kWh battery, dual-motor, all-wheel drive (288-mile range, 4.2 seconds 0-60mph, 155mph top speed, weighs 2.5 tonnes. Tesla cars need power stations for charging and so 622 miles is 0.28 tonnes CO2 ) Which one would you choose?
15:10 I am wondering why didn't you call Tesla. Everybody reports they do outstanding customer-orientated service and support.
And they do...at the time, because the car was drive-able...I waited until i got home and scheduled an appt.
The Fun and Budget Act, I'm not sure if you have heard of the proper way to use the Supercharger Network. When there are multiple cars at the Supercharger, you need to pick a number that no one is using. All Superchargers have a Number and A/B. So if someone is on 1A then you can choose any other number other than 1. If you choose 1B you will be sharing the charge with 1A and both cars will charge at a lower speed. You can't really avoid this if there are a few cars already charging.
Brandon Hines thanks...yes, i know that...the one charging station was full completely
Good, informative video. Curious to know can a Tesla, or any EV, charge on any brand's charging station? Also, do EV batteries degrade over time (example: 1st year gets 265 max distance... year 6 gets 218 max distance) similar to cell phones?
Shows why Telsa along with other EV makers must make a deal to put at least one "Supercharger" at every possible 7-11 type store and whatever independent gas dealers they can immediately. The SuperCharger network is not adequate and keeps the Telsa from being ready for prime time.
It's all the cars . It lowers the charging rate it's only like 120 m with no cars so it's 60 m with all cars . So you have too wate longer . So you can charge to get too the other charge are with out cars
can the display thing be resetted while driving? #richrebuilds
How many times are you gonna charge that damn thing
Why you did not upgrade to the latest software version OTA?
The car does that automatically so whatever the latest push is...she got it :-)
New subbie here!!! Enjoyed the vid. I can't wait to get my Tesla.
Mzmonica4real me too
Spending almost 20 thousand dollars for a down payments to drive a Tesla electric car.But all Tesla cars any models have too many lockup and freeze in all their gauges.Needed to many new softwares update.In a way the Tesla company are using us for a testing ground for their electric cars products.
$20k? Nah...I put down more than that...my car's paid for.
If you want to get to those shops and back within the time the car takes to charge you're going to have to walk very fast or keep a fold-up electric bicycle in your car.
Really makes me glad I bought a Volt instead. 90% of the time I don't burn any gas and it's much easier to find a gas station on a road trip. Looks like you weren't in a hurry to get anywhere. Those problems would be really stressful if you had a schedule to keep.
It's 4:30am i haven't followed any of your videos for a while. I am an automotive enthusiast so I generally search for automotive content. I keep seeing Tesla video's pop up in my feed and a though about you. My favorite RUclipsr who owns a Tesla. The last video I viewed was your trip to Spain. Congratulations on your new channel I was inspired to want to attempt my own automotive channel I haven't come up with a name for the channel but you are part of my template.
Keep up the awesome work
Live well.
Awww thank you and definitely let me know when you start your channel :-)
@@FunandBudget
Will do thanks.
Just found your channel and I've been enjoying binge watching your vids! Thanks so much for sharing your Tesla road trip experience. I have been looking into a Model X but, based on your video, I think I'll rent a regular gas car for my once a year road trip.
Yeah...depending on lifestyle and personality, Tesla's won't be for everyone (just like city living vs country living aren't for everyone)...but keep in mind, my car is older (2013) and this trip was the only time I had these issues (I've taken more trips since)...I have yet to run into a Tesla owner who regrets buying the car...and as a Tesla community we find that we actually take more road trips with these cars. :-) And thank you so much for watching my videos [insert hearts here].
Awww thanks for responding. I can't say that it's out of the running. I still think it's in the running even though my husband thinks it's ugly. Lol. I think I will look into the pre-owned Tesla world as well. I love technology of them.
Lanika T i'm going to do a Paid Off Tesla video where I think i'll finally reveal how much i paid for my car...i try to keep it as real as possible in this channel...the good, the bad, and the hot damn mess of it all 😊
I would love to see that. I've just started budgeting myself and I love your "real talk" money videos.
So basically the car froze and crashed like a computer would?
this is the very reason why i refuse to get a electric or hybrid car. The technology has been rushed to production without adequate research and testing. Furthermore, it is a front wheel drive car!!! it makes no sense to me to pay that much for a front wheel drive car when you get a all wheel drive vehicle that has better range. my opinion.
Thanks so much for uploading this video! I'm in the market to buy a used
Tesla Model S (one with unlimited supercharging) and I definitely am
glad you uploaded this because I had no idea these issues existed so
it's good to know going in what to look out for when buying one of these
cars. Have you had any of these issues after you brought it in to the
Tesla dealership?
Road to the 2 Comma Club no...but i hadn't had these issues before either. What i love is if you buy a car with less than 50k miles, tesla includes a full warranty. They have been super responsive to me...and they have given me new brakes and rotors, instrument cluster and center console. I feel they stand behind their work and most importantly they listen. Remember to use a referral code for the $1000 discount.
Yeah I'm definitely going to use a referral code, and that's good to know about the warranty too! Thanks so much for replying! :-)
The Fun and Budget Act wow tesla warranty even covers brakes? Didn't realize used teslas came with a full warranty.
Great vid, forget about the Internet trolls. Please make more vids, it's very informative.
To be honest, I've heard there were quite a few issues with earlier model S cars. Think all are ironed out from later ones. I do like that tesla change stuff
Yup...I heard the same thing...and even with my early model car...it is not bad at all. Since they've fixed these issues I have not had anymore :-)
Resetting the dashboard is like a common thing? And they want to introduce auto pilot? Yikes.
I don't think resetting is a common thing (like you something about that doesn't sound right to me)...but according to some of the people on this thread...it is.
Wait, do you have sunroof covers? Where can I get those?
I don’t believe she has sun shades attached to the interior of the panoramic glass roof. I have seen roof shades available at the Evannex web site.
Go to.
Model S
Interior Accessories
Roof Shades
The web site mentions the roof shades are only available for cars with the panoramic roof and not the all glass roof.
You look like a celebrity and you have great personality. Nice video as well!
Ivan Nunez thank you ...you are so kind 😊
Teslas are amongst the safest cars on the road. However, if you don’t wear your seatbelt (the most basic safety device in any car), you’re still going to end up seriously injured or dead should you be in a bad car crash.
I think that meant that you had X amount of miles left until you reach your destination.
That circle going around and

That's exactly why I wont get an electric car right now. maybe in about 10 years or so if I'm still on this earth living. I do admire you for not doing the typical thing in buying a gas powered vehicle.
sweetdaddy coolaid im adventurous...gonna get their solar roof too :-)
Circuit Overload when driving at high speed's or can the vechical handle the distress?
That vehicle is made to be driven at high speeds...it goes from 0 to 60 in like 4 seconds. Tesla replaced my cars instrument cluster...haven't had an issue since.
Planning a trip around the car is no good.
I am not lucky enough to have a Tesla (and they don't take food stamps yet) but I would stop to eat before I go to a supercharger station and also take a jar of peanut butter along just in case there are no restaurants open there.
After watching this video, I would be highly reluctant to buy one. I am a fan of the technology and concept, but the company must deliver a reliable product. Time and money: cannot tolerate wasting either of them, especially TIME!
Totally understand...I think for most who own this car there's not really an issue with time...it actually saves time (you never have to stop for gas again in your day to day life)...now what you see in my Tesla videos are the every so often road trips that I go on on purpose simply because I find it fun to drive the Tesla long distances.
I’m just wondering what happens when somebody manages to hack the software and thousands of these things go Skynet all at once?
Sounds like a great sci-fi movie :-)
I'm guessing it told you that time to charge to complete your journey, but it would leave you stranded on completion. Probably okay if you are heading home.
When you journey back, it'll map your route for you again. Also by the time people get to where they are getting to, they may have a charger at the location and we can also plug into a regular outlet as well.
you are AWSOME!!! I could wacth you guys everyday!
Awwww...thanks!
Loved watching this. You are super cute. The Syosset charger is horrendous. Everyone complains about how slow these chargers are. Tesla has several other superchargers going online along the Long Island Expressway by the end of the year. Let's hope it actually happens!
Darren G thank you for confirming I wasn't crazy...i knew that place sucked...lol
Do they charge you to replace everything and is it really expensive?
No...my car is under warranty.
Good to know. Thanks for the response!
I just bought a Tesla... drive a TON!!! The young guys at the dealership told me I would be fine LOL! Here is hoping Tesla has fixed some of these issues... I have been super lucky with all my cars and have never had issues. Thanks for the video.
Yes these issues were fixed. My tesla has been driving awesomely ever since :-)
Thank you for sharing your experiences with us. Would you mind writing that how much money did you pay to the Tesla dealership for the fixing the issues in your car?
And thank you for watching :-) I paid nothing...the car is under full warranty.
