My 2025 wish list Tesla has been chipping away at my wishlist of features on their way to making my car perfect. Apple Watch App UWB Phone Key access Custom Tilt Reverse Mirror Side View Window Repositioning Speed camera alerts My 2025 wish list Metric distance option for Navigation Only...

Happy to report this is now fixed. I can now put the car in reverse and the mirrors will tilt to the exact location every time. Only tiny issue I have is there's two custom mirror reverse positions I need on the driver's mirror. One to see a garage door when backing out and the other to see the...

Yes. This speaks to the greater complexity of proximity benefits and security; Risks vs rewards. Several entry scenarios..key card only, phone (BT), phone (UWB), and remote start. To your point, each should fall in some hierarchal order when presented with driver's intrusion prevention act.

Good point. I remember something similar a while back where a friend unlocked the passenger door while I was inside simply by touching the door handle. Not sure if this was before UWB upgrade. However in a recent event a friend could not unlock the door and I had to do it from the screen...

Pop up lock doors icon upon entry. The lock icon is too small on the Model S screen. When entering the vehicle I have to tap the little lock icon 2-3 times sometimes to lock my car. Should be much easier especially if someone is concerned about their safety and needs to lock their car quickly...

That's a great idea where the turn signal while in reverse tilts the appropriate mirror down.

Looks like Tesla has an update on the way to enable saving the position of mirror tilt in reverse. Soon I can remove my curb scrapers. 😅

Automatic defensive horn at low speeds. In a congested parking lot someone began to back out of their parking spot almost hitting my rear passenger fender. Luckily, I saw this in my passenger side mirror and blew my horn inches before a collision. The week prior in the same congested parking...

I didn't think anyone was. I was just elaborating for the benefit of all in the forum. Perhaps over-elaborating after too much coffee :) To your point on it being a commercial decision, perhaps Elon believed more rental car companies would purchase FSD for their fleet of cars. I just tried to...

Yes of course FSD was purchased by the rental company for that specific vehicle. As an IT systems engineer for decades, trust me I get those points. It's not a technical limitation to temporarily transfer FSD or Premium Connectivity to any Tesla you sit in via your profile. Technically it's a...

Hertz gave me a key card enclosed in a plastic case and or course I simply used the card to authorize my phone's access. With exception of FSD and Premium Connection the experience was pretty much like my car. I imagine if I had a Model 3 even the mirrors, seat and steering wheel would have...

Allow your Tesla profile's subscriptions to transfer to a rented Tesla. I rented a Tesla from Hertz connected my profile and my FSD and Premium Connectivity did NOT transfer to the car. Many of my other profile settings were actually present. I figure that could drive more demand for renting them.

Yeah. I'm surprised more haven't commented on this. So strange to select metric option in my Tesla to get nav distance in km only for the dashboard to also show speed limit sign images in km as I'm passing road signs in mph. lol. I simply want to measure navigation distance in metric. It...

Just caught that. Very strange they'd do such a thing. Result is forced reliance on Tesla Vision. I might have to go shopping for 1970s curb scrapers.

That's very strange. Have you tried looking at the latest manual online to see if the feature has been removed? The reverse tilt was added to the manual for my Model S over a year ago but never mentioned as a new feature.

Recommend testing your tilt. Try to save your mirrors to tilt down and inward to view your passenger side rear tire while in reverse. Mine just keeps tilting to the factory tilt position.

Fix Mirror Auto Tilt Mirrors do not return to saved tilt position when backing up to avoid scraping rims on curb. Tesla Vision alone is not precise enough to park close to the curb. See screenshot of latest Tesla Manual for Model S BTW....My 2004 BMW has this feature and it works...

Add option to for facial recognition to drive. Car should have option to authorize a driver based on facial recognition using in cabin camera and using only the car's hardware( not servers).

Sentry should stitch multiple video clips together for a threat and send it to the app. If a person walks up to your car and walks around the vehicle, Sentry using its AI should stitch videos from this event from all cameras into one concise video and alert you via the app. Currently you have...

The Tesla App shows $/kwh and total cost estimate prior to charging at home. It's hard to remember what hours are the cheapest to charge your vehicle at home. When initiating a charging at home via the Tesla app, it should show how much this charge will cost based on your electricity plan...
