r/ModelY

For reference, I have always been a muscle car guy. Loved my v8 mustangs for the past 10 years, but after trying out FSD, I got back in my mustang and I just literally could not stop thinking about how smooth and amazing it is. It was burning my brain for two weeks until I caved in. I'll definitely miss my 6 speed mustang with 500+ HP. But this is a complete generational upgrade

Can anyone provide information on the estimated delivery time ( can i expect prior to this date range) and the subsequent steps? I got vin assigned. I’ve noticed that the insurance option is disabled, as indicated by the message stating that I can only take insurance once the delivery date is assigned. What will be the next steps?

MY RWD around 2 weeks old. Been giving it a good clean on the drive with air conditioning running. Noticed lots of water dripping from centre of under tray. Please tell me this is normal. No smell or colour to the liquid.

Hello, I recently had an issue where my steering wheel just keeps shaking a lot, and when I turn the steering wheel, it does not come directly to the center, like it pauses, and then comes to the middle.
I took it for inspection at Tesla, and they gave me the report that cracked bushing in front lateral and compliance links caused the issue. Report reply below.

‘Technician inspected the vehicle and verified the steering wheel does not return smoothly to center after turns. Cracked bushings in the front lateral and compliance links caused the issue. Technician replaced both front lateral links and both front compliance links then performed four wheel alignment. Technician confirmed the steering now returns smoothly and the vehicle handles as designed.’

They told me they replaced the parts, and should be fixed.. however I still get the same feeling and even worse it shakes much more. I took it back again, and they told me this is normal but
it was not like this before though ..

Another workshop told me this could be because of the wheel bearings first, then if not steering box ..

The video shows when it doesn’t come to center directly, it pauses then comes
any suggestions ?

I have spent the last 3 months lurking in Tesla groups after a co-worker turned me into a believer. I just pushed the order button!

I have the cheap neck pillow off Amazon, which are very soft imo. Are these any better or at least more firm?

Hey, got this new to me 23 MY. Everything works great, but I noticed that the trunk has a quite significant panel gap. Is it something to worry about? Seems to function ok. If it's just aesthetic I probably won't mind, but it's still under warranty.

Picking up our new MYPAWD (premium)on Monday (can’t wait). Home charging is handled with the neocharge adapter for our dryer outlet until the Fall when my son is going to do a full panel replacement and add a dedicated charging station.
Are there any must have accessories we need for our new Tesla? Any suggestions on things that will make our life with this car that much better?
Super excited and if you are wondering the promo interest rate is still going. 🥰

I found scratches all over my car caused by the service center. both fender liner and wheel opening trims How should I handle this situation? I alreay send email to service manager and regional manager. what else I should do?

Hi everyone, I have a Tesla Model Y AWD with 19” wheels and 255/45 R19 tyres. I noticed this damage near the rim, in the sidewall/bead area. Photos attached.

The tyre is still holding pressure and I have not noticed any vibration or tyre-pressure warning, but I am supposed to start a week-long road trip in Europe tomorrow. Because it is the weekend, I cannot find a tyre shop that can inspect or replace it before Monday.

I am trying to understand the practical urgency:
- Is this a complete do-not-start-the-trip situation?
- Could I drive carefully and arrange to replace it somewhere along the route?
- Or could it reasonably wait until after the trip?

The journey includes luggage, and driving on German Autobahn stretches.
