    Front door... abomination!

    It's a long while I wanted to post about this, but I always forget. Today a passenger wearing flip flops broke a pinky getting out of the car, because of this... abomination. Sure it is to strengthen the frame in an accident, etc. but... it wasn't like this on the previous model. Am I the only...

    Discuss: Tesla Introduces Model 3 Turn Signal Stalk Retrofit

    The point is that they should retrofit for free. Also, I actually miss more the right stalk than the left - considering that the flashing isn't part of the retrofit anyway. Auto shift just sucks.

    Discuss: Tesla Introduces Model 3 Turn Signal Stalk Retrofit

    Sooo... they screwed up big time by removing them. Saying that we - having made the purchase unaware of the nonsense - did not understand the "innovation". They proved us right by reintroducing at least the left stalk, however stupidly downgraded. Now they want us to pay for this crippled retrofit?

    Discuss: Tesla Introduces Luxe Package for Model S and Model X; Raises Price by $10k

    That's the ridiculous old-style thinking that always drove us nuts with old car manufacturers - only there weren't alternatives. Tesla entered with an "iPhone" approach. Power, Color(s) and autopilot level, both in order to simplify the manufacturing and because their direct sales model would...

    Discuss: Tesla Introduces Luxe Package for Model S and Model X; Raises Price by $10k

    Almost the same principle. Those who are already eager to part with the current FSD price will buy it anyway, if only a little less. Those who don't want FSD (like me) will just be even more indifferent to it. Almost, because in this case you were promised some future magic at a predetermined...

    Discuss: Tesla Introduces Luxe Package for Model S and Model X; Raises Price by $10k

    If you are in the market for a S or a X, the last you are interested in is saving $10k. That's the basic principle of anelastic demand. And in this case the package is worth easily 2x or 3x, furthermore, so it's a no brainer. If you need to save $10k, what you are really in the market for is...

    Discuss: Tesla Model 3 Will Finally Get a Front Bumper Camera

    Any more mistakes to make customers even more frustrated and disgruntled? First the stalks, now the bumper camera, in both cases after shouting to loyal customer that we didn't get the point. Sure we didn't get theIR point - and for a reason, arguably. Between auto-shift weirdnesses and all the...

    List of software bugs

    Why oh why do we have the "End Trip" button so visible and prominent, instead of just "Edit Trip" or at least End Trip" guarded by a confirmation request? I lost count of the times that I wanted to edit the trip and I inadvertently cancelled it. Which, considering that most of the times I have...

    The same occurred to me, I was "abroad". Quite weird but everything seemed to work fine otherwise.

    This is why I wrote that there is no "official feedback loop". X can't be considered official, even though it's a sister company.

    List of software bugs

    The biggest problem here is that there is no official feedback loop from customers to Tesla. And even complaining to Tesla service centers is completely useless.

    List of software bugs

    Probably they removed it in the last year, after all the complaints, and I haven't noticed it since I installed Commander. Before I had to put the car to a full stop, P then D to restart autopilot. Or do you mean you just use the cruise control and not the autopilot?

    Spot on. Like every "home assistant". Even smart speakers after a first wave started to sell with "no assistant" variants.

    List of software bugs

    The strong acceleration was supposed to be fixed, in fact I don't recall having experienced it in the last year at least. The second is actually the reason why I kept getting autopilot suspensions, until I installed Commander, which allows disabling autopilot when exceeding max ACC speed. Fact...

    Discuss: How to Retrofit a Front Bumper Camera on a HW4 Model S and Model X

    So disappointing reading that Tesla "laid the foundation" all the time for a bumper camera and simply did not deliver it due to stubborness. But hey, the priority was sinking the company with the CyberTruck abomination. Wouldn't be surprised if this retrofit could be replicated on M3/MY...
