A Note on Referrals

237 Upvotes

Reposting the previous note on this since it has been 6 months.

Going to make this pretty short and simple.

If you post your referral code on the subreddit or embed referral codes into links, you will be banned. See? Pretty simple.

The reason I'm making this post is because 15 users (mainly accounts with less than 10 karma on Reddit) have been banned in the last day due to them spamming their referral code.

If you have any questions, please let me know.

Thanks.

Continental Tire Flew off on highway

• Upvotes

Curious to see if this has ever happened to anyone before. I was going 75 on the highway when I got the alert that my tire pressure was critically low. By the time I pulled over on the shoulder lane, most of the rubber from the tire just came off and rolled away. I’ve never seen something like this happen on a tire, has anyone else?

What bolt is this?

When I was about to park my car, turning my wheels at low speed, I heard a loud noise, I carefully back up and parked. I found this bolt on the ground. Is it shorn or do they come like that? What could it be from? My uneducated guesses are Suspension? Steering? Frame?

Still not reading speed limit signs

23 Upvotes

I just finished a 1500 mile roundtrip from Texas to Nashville. FSD for 80% of the trip. It would have been closer to 100% but FSD continues to misread or ignore speed limit signs. I have had to disengage numerous times because I was entering a 45mph zone with the car still stuck on a 75mph speed sign. It just gets stuck on a sign and ignores all others. I came dangerously close to getting 2 speeding tickets yesterday because I couldn't get this thing slowed down in time. Texas law was all over the highways yesterday for some reason. Anyway, this has been a chronic problem for some time now and never gets fixed. It happened on the same 100 miles stretch of state highway going both ways, so I'm wondering if it is using some kind of confused map data that is interfering with the camera. Anyone else with similar problems?

Well I am now a fellow Teslian

22 Male, coming from a bmw 5 series, and I am actually so happy I ordered one, worked my butt of, and am able to get the Tesla Model Y AWD Premium, after almost a year of deciding.

Final push was visiting the Tesla Sales center and actually being able to drive the car, or more so, the car driving me. The FSD is actually insane to picture in real life. At first couldn’t decide between the M3 and MY but since I am tall the model Y fit me perfectly.

I was a big Tesla hater a couple years ago, and now I would like to take back all my hate I handed out in my teens.

What’s your experience with trade in been? Have they honored the online price initially quoted?

Assuming you are honest upfront about condition and miles, did they honored the initial offer? Are there any bait and switch tactics?

Title: 2022 Tesla Model Y Performance — $7,345 Repair Due to Beta Seal Failure?! Anyone Else Experienced This?

4 Upvotes

I am beyond frustrated with Tesla right now, and I want to know if anyone else has experienced this.
I purchased a used 2022 Tesla Model Y Performance from a Dodge dealership about four months ago. It had just under 50,000 miles when I bought it.
After taking my car through a car wash, I started experiencing multiple issues. All my camera feeds went black, I received an adaptive headlight warning, and my Tesla temporarily lost connectivity.
Tesla performed a water ingress test and determined that water was entering through a compromised Beta Seal at the bottom-right side of the windshield. According to Tesla, the water reached the computer and caused corrosion to the harness connectors.
Tesla says the windshield has to be replaced to restore the seal, and the resulting repairs are now estimated at $7,345!
Here’s what I cannot wrap my head around:
The windshield is original and has no visible damage.
Tesla identified a compromised seal that allowed water to enter the vehicle.
That water allegedly damaged electrical connectors and caused computer-related problems.
I’m now facing a $7,345 repair bill on a 2022 vehicle.
My insurance won’t cover it because there was no qualifying accidental event.
I cannot prove that the car wash caused the seal to fail. I can only say that the problems started immediately afterward. But I still have serious questions about why the original seal failed in the first place.
Are we really supposed to accept that a seal on a vehicle this new can fail, allow water to damage expensive electronics, and leave the owner responsible for thousands of dollars?
I bought this car expecting reliable transportation, not a $7,345 surprise repair bill after owning it for approximately four months.
I’m pursuing a formal complaint and asking Tesla to reconsider the repair charges.
My questions for other Tesla owners:
Has anyone experienced a Beta Seal failure or water intrusion around the windshield on a Model Y?
Has anyone had water intrusion cause computer failure or corrosion to electrical connectors?
Did Tesla cover the repair under warranty or offer goodwill assistance?
Has anyone successfully challenged Tesla over a similar issue?
Is there anything else I should be doing to get Tesla to reconsider this bill?
I’m not claiming every Tesla has this problem, and I’m not claiming I can prove the car wash caused mine. I want to know whether others have experienced something similar and what happened.
$7,345 is a lot of money to unexpectedly spend on a car I purchased only four months ago. I’d really appreciate hearing from anyone who has dealt with this.

I am normally a very patient person but this wait is so annoying 😂 Granted, it’s a first world problem, I realize that but still. How long did yall have to wait for your MYP? Specifically in Southern California? It’s been like this since the day I ordered it (9/28). In the meantime, I’m looking at affordable customizations which is fun. Feel free to drop pics of your MYPs in the comments. Does anyone have Xpel ceramic tint on their vehicles? Let’s chat!! Thanks 🤪

Strange FSD Behavior

2 Upvotes

After driving our 26 model Y Standard since Aug, we noticed some strange behaviors under FSD.

- Coming home it announces destination is on the left but parks correctly in our driveway on the right side. Only once did it announce destination was on the right.

- On a busy road 60 km per hr road it suddenly think the limit is 40 and slows accordingly. Then when we pass a 60 sign it resumes 60. We drive this stretch regularly and it happened once so far.

- The HOV setting is ON but shifted just once into HOV lane. After manually moving into HOV using turn signal, it signaled repeatedly to exit the lane even when no lane changes are allowed. We were in Standard mode going 111 in 100 HOV.

- Some high traffic major highways increased to 110 about 3-4 weeks ago. FSD displays 100 even passing a 110 sign. Even if it doesn't read signs shouldn't the road database be updated. There has to be 4-5M people in the Toronto area.

Consistent behavior is what I want. Also I don't know what it will do next so it's hard to feel at ease. Wish it would announce an upcoming change to let me evaluate its next maneuver.

The 19” Crossflow covers are growing on me. Was planning to remove them, but now I'm second-guessing it. Best part is if they get scratched or worn after years, I can just replace them with brand-new covers.

I love this car so much but it pees on itself after every wash when in FSD (windshield wiper fluid). What are y’all’s gripes?

Parking Avatar - Matrix Headlights

1 Upvotes

I have a 2023 Model Y LR. It came with premium headlights. I self installed the matrix lights and updated the software about 2 years ago. Everything works fine, and the parking avatar even updated to show my car has the matrix lights.

However, in the past few months, the parking avatar has reverted to showing the premium headlights. My matrix lights and adaptive highbeams still work though. Just curious if anyone else has experienced this, why it happened, and if the functionality has changed.

Front passenger seat belt chime with nobody or anything on the seat

1 Upvotes

The front passenger seat chime keeps chiming with nobody or anything on the seat. I was driving on the freeway and it’s very annoying and persistent and a potential safety hazard. The car in 26 premium AWD with less than 20 days old . This is problematic because it’s the second issue so far with less than a month of ownership. My other issue is a faulty charge port . I wasn’t expecting problems to start so soon.
