i don’t have any idea about something showing on the display. I don’t remember hearing any emergency braking alarms. There could have been,, but it was over in a flash.
Thinking back - I didn’t notice the anti-lock brakes going, so should have hit the brakes harder. I also should have had the...
Driving home tonight over 4 hours after sunset, so generally well after the time that deer are most active, I just about became a statistic with my R1T. Traveling 55 mph on a paved county road, I saw a couple deer in the corner of my eye in the ditch, and then not even a second later, saw one...
I've had the second/elastic one for about a year. It's gotten lots of use. It's not quite as tight as it used to be since I apparently over-stretched it while hauling large loads of trash bags to the landfill while cleaning out dad's house getting it ready to sell. But, since a replacement cargo...
Almost always when I first open the App Store on the iPhone and then select my Apple ID icon, it doesn't show a full list of the apps that need updating. Just swipe down on the page to force a refresh (common gesture on most apps) and after a few seconds, several additional app updates will...
And my Tesla experience was much different than you hve seen. I. purchased the Model 3 In mid 2018 and have 131k miles and counting on it. Back in the first couple months of ownership, the Tesla software was unstable and I had several (maybe 5) times with the center display rebooting in the...
As an even better price than the previous coupon that I mentioned, I received an alert from Hazard Fraught (hfpricetracker.com - price alerts on Harbor Freight items) today that said the price on this jack was reduced to $279.99. This is a Black Friday deal that ends on Monday, Dec 1.
I used a 3D printed part to mount Christmas lights to the crossbars on my R1T last year. As others have mentioned, depending upon the colors that you use, you can run afoul with an overzealous police officer. I ran multi-colored lights for one day and then replaced them with all red to hopefully...
My friend that drives a 1st gen Chevy Volt says this is one of his fears. That vehicle apparently has the charge port integrated into the sacrificial bumper cover. A parking lot kerfuffle would damage the charging port and total the vehicle (due to parts cost and vehicle value).
Solar panels on a vehicle that consumes 100 Wh/mile (Aptera) is MUCH more useful than solar panels on a vehicle that consumes 500 Wh/mile or more (R1T).
The Tesla Supercharger in Olathe, KS is setup like this. It's the only one that I remember being like this where you reverse into a diagonal parking stall, but it's really pretty easy to access. Several pictures on Plugshare at https://www.plugshare.com/location/199625
On my 2013 LEAF, I had "4O4 GAS" as a personalized plate - 4O4 as in a 404 error on a web browser. That looked like the same formatting as the standard license plates in Kansas at the time (three numbers and 3 letters), although for personalized plates you couldn't use the number 0 and had to...
How many red flashes do you see on the mobile connector? Tesla has a troubleshooting guid posted at https://service.tesla.com/docs/Public/diy/model3/en_us/GUID-A3E92BEC-5A7A-4092-BAAF-A17B8E863B3F.html
If you disconnect the mobile charger from both the vehicle and the wall, wait 15 seconds...
I live on an airport. Several years back, one of my neighbors had their house hit by an airplane after the pilot lost control on landing. Luckily, no injuries, but the house was shifted on its foundation and ruled a total loss. They ended up and rebuilt the house, but placed it about 75' further...
Tesla has expanded some existing v2 sites with v3 stalls. When they do this, they do not add 3rd-party access because it would be confusing as to why some stalls work and others don't. I know Limon, CO in the Arby's parking lot is one such site. It went live in June 2014 as a 6 stall v2 site. In...
