Nice write up! Central IL is a charging desert for CCS. Bloomington has 3 Tesla SC locations which two of them being V3. When traveling south, we skipped the Mt Vernon (had bad checkins at the time) and used the EVgo at Fairview Heights, IL. Had really good luck with it both times. We had...

Thanks for the link and feedback. Already time for a tire rotation so I just ordered!

This is what they did to fix it for us. I am guessing it was rattling still after the fix since they didn't get it assembled correctly (didn't lock in all clips) on the speaker cover. I

We have (had) this too. They attempted to fix it when servicing but it was the same when they gave it back. I was able to get 3 clips to snap/lock back in on the speaker cover by the windshield. Hasn't rattled since so keeping my fingers crossed.

I understand the cooling during/after a fast charge. Our last trip was the first time we heard the same noise as the OP but it did stop around 5 mins after we started driving. It was ridiculously loud, rattling interior parts. That is absolutely not normal and was not present on our previous...

That is ridiculous. I had mentioned that ours did it a few times after a fast charge and I chalked it up to cooling the battery. Inside the cabin it was crazy loud. My wife was like wtf when it kicked on like that but I assured here it was just because of the fast charge, etc. I wouldn't...

We had a similar noise we noticed while traveling. It only occurred at the end of a fast charge and stayed that noisy until a few mins into the drive after leaving the charger. This was in 90+ degree temps only.

If you ever need warranty be sure to tell them it's in a 2022!

Good to know. Thank you!

I saved my issues for later but I wasn't super impressed with the service center. It's back behind security at the plant so you basically have no interaction with anyone expect the two people that sit up front in the lobby (main entrance to plant). I had a part fall off (interior) after I...

I recently visited the Chicago suburbs so I swung by the WeatherTech factory store. I wanted to pick up a set of front mats for the R1S. I walked into the store and up to a waiting customer service rep. This is where things went sideways. I made the mistake of telling them my R1S was a 2023...

I got it about 10 minutes ago. Wouldn't start through the app so had to go to the vehicle.

We tried it while driving and couldn't really make out what it sounded like (sounded weak). Just went to the garage and tried it. Weak but sufficient (barely).

I was in the same boat. I got lucky and found a set of new takeoffs locally (20" wheels only) for 1K.

We put 50K on our MY in 2 years. Zero issues and fit and finish was perfect. Local Tesla service center is top notch. We sold the MY and replaced it with the R1S. Body panels are off (not going to have that fixed) dash speaker rattles and a big clunk at take off. We are at 1,000 miles. I...
