Tesla cars always have a technical error which a normal person can’t understand. Tesla’s service call center is sucks. I am driving tesla for more than 1 year. Performance is better than regular car. But maintenance and service support is very bad. When ever i visit service center first they give appointment after 20 days then when you arrive there you have to wait more than 5 hours minimum or just left the car and ride by your own.

It's a computer car

I have a Tesla model 3. I like the fact that it's electric, but I don't like the fact that it is operated by computer. For example, the cruise control has an added feature called curvassist that makes it unusable. For $50,000, the car should come with a usable Cruise control. Automatic emergency braking is also sometimes dangerous. Depending upon the circumstances, it may slam on the brakes in the middle of the highway. I wish Tesla either left these computer features out or at least gave the user the option to turn them off. Curvassist apparently cannot be turned off.

Have gone from a 2020 model 3 to a 2023 the new model has TOTALLY USELESS parking sensors, highly inaccurate - probably the WORK sensors and a waste of space!

Best car I've ever owned!

Performance aside (and is has no shortage of that!), this is the best car I've ever owned. I've owned 24 cars to date. Magically low ongoing cost of ownership. Tesla works every day to make my car better via software updates that are as easy to do as it is on my phone. It has a 5 star + safety rating. It's seat are better that any car I've ever owned. And now, in Full Self Driving (Supervised) mode, it drives much better then most of the drivers I encounter on a daily basis. Plus, when filling up at home, a "tank" of electricity only costs me $9 to go about 300 miles. This refreshed version is quieter, smoother, quicker, faster and better handling than the previous Model 3 Performance. It's fit and finish is also better than my 2020.

Lovely to drive but buyers beware

I was in love with my Tesla until I scratched the bumper. The insurance is terrible. My car has been in the shop since 8/30/24 - it’s now 9/1924, with no word at all from their insurance - it took more than 10 Days for them to agree to a rental, and that took me going into the showroom and almost crying, and that is only for 30 days. My car has been in the shop now for 3 weeks with no communication. There isn’t a person to talk to, they don’t respond to daily emails or even me sending the estimate for repairs in myself. The body shop said this is normal for Tesla. Apparently other regular insurances are way more on Teslas given their delay on sending and the expense of their parts. Don’t do it- buy something else!
