Fraudulent Sales Process

Totally fraudulent sales process. Do your homework before even considering purchasing a new car from Tesla. New 2023 Tesla Model S, the GPS and Camera software didn’t work, car computer needed to be replaced, Premium Software package doesn’t work even when paid for, roof rack was installed with missing parts, door seal needed to be replaced, window needed to be replaced because it leaked rain from the outside. Horrible experience. This was all in the first 45 days of ownership. Now I am trying to cancel the deal through Lemon Laws.

Love this car! Have had the 3P and the YP and this takes the cake, not even a fair apples to apples comparison. People on here complain about the stupidest things. This car is my absolute favorite to drive hands down, owned many cars and this one is just a dream. I do with the horn was actually a horn, hitting that small button for the horn is quite distracting but thats about it.

Best Car We've Ever Owned

We had a great experience with a Tesla Model 3 for a few years and decided to upgrade the Model S Long Range. Pro's: The air suspension makes a huge difference in ride quality combined with a quiet interior makes it feel like you're floating. The performance of the car is incredible, it handles well and is lightening quick! Pre-purchase the yoke was my biggest concern. After driving a few thousand miles with it I've grown to love it. Better field of view and easy to use with a nice flat bottom area to rest your hands. The yoke's solid grip works well when you let loose on windy country roads. Voice commands work really well, and I'm now used to not having a stalk. I really appreciate the turn-signal auto shutoff when you complete the lane change is slick. The tech for this car is the best in the industry. From battery to infotainment. Plenty of range for us to cart the kids around, shop and travel anywhere. We love the fact that the instrument panel screen free's up the main 17" screen. We get a giant map for directions! That's a nice improvement from the Model 3. Spotify works well as does Netflix and the games. The touch screen is simple to use and extremely responsive. Tesla pioneered the over the air software updates for cars. We look forward to updates every month or so. Model 3/S keep getting better. Zoom conferencing coming soon! The only iPhone app we miss are the Waze speed trap and obstacle warnings. Purchased FSD, waiting in the queue. Bought it as Autopilot was pretty good in the 3 (though far from perfect.) Cons: My Wife & I share the car, but the profiles don't always seem to sync properly. The auto-high beams are a bit too erratic on the freeway. Autopilot does have the occasional phantom break still which hopefully FSD will address. The trunk had a small gap on one side that shouldn't happen for a car in this price range. Outside of that the build is solid. The horn button was a dumb idea. They are supposed to push an update to address this. Final thoughts: Highly recommend if it's in the budget. We loved the Model 3 but the S is now the best car we've ever driven or owned!

I drove all the other luxury sedans (Lucid, S7,S6, E450, BMW 540) before deciding on the S with FSD. Very happy with it. Most of the cons I read about don’t jive with my experience. Fit and finish is top notch. Interior design is personal taste - I felt like going back in time when I got into the other cars (they were very steam punk..especially the Benz). Controls are different for sure but after a couple weeks they just work (I rode motorcycles awhile back and you just learn where everything is and don’t have to look down). FSD is amazing , just need to know what it does and where you should shut it off. I feel safer on the highway and at night - it can see 360 degrees and better at night than me. Make long distance travel way more relaxed than just ACC and LKA. Teslas system is more capable than the Merc by far. It’s super quiet and rides very well in comfort mode handling is excellent. It rips if you want to (way quicker than my GT350). Charging at home is the bomb. Have not had to use a supercharger yet but have gone about 320 miles on a charge round trip getting home in the teens for charge state. Lucid had way more gear / motor noise, no FSD and was 30k more for about the same performance. Would have loved an S7 but it was 25k more as well as 2x the cost to insure and operate. I’m a gear head (have had vettes , mustangs and now a GT350) but the S is a way better vehicle than anything out there at that price point as of today, IMO One Year later : Still feel the same. The S has gotten a number of useful new features vis OTA updates. FSD with HW4 is now truly amazing and makes driving places way less stressful. No reliability issues in year 1. Love charging at Home, no wasting time at gas stations. Only negative to me applies to all EVs - cold weather range is 30% lower and you need to plan to have the battery at temp to charge. Parking outside in sub zero temps unplugged on trips takes planning (way more than an ICE vehicle) so you have enough range. All that said, I’d buy another Tesla S.

The excitement hides many flaws

I bought new a ‘22 Tesla S Plaid, with all the options. The car looks nice on the outside, I think is beautiful. On the inside is quite basic for the price point but is smart in several ways; the air conditioning is well designed, the seats are fine and adjust well, and the infotainment is great, very likely the best of the industry. Acceleration is nothing short of amazing. And that’s it, it excites you if you like cars. Now the problems. Paint quality is very bad, it dents with very little… the wheels as well, look around teslas on the street and look at their wheels…brakes need a big improvement, the plaid doesn’t have the breaks it needs, I believe is dangerous, I have two sports cars of traditional brands and the gap in breaking is big. Also remember this is a very heavy car. After a month a noisy squeak noise started at breaking and reversing, the app for service even has an option for squeaky noises.. the interior of the car and the body started to make little noises while driving that you don’t see at cars at this price point in my experience. In summary this is a car with an acceleration of a $150k car, a great infotainment, a body work of a $20k car and not the right brakes. Autonomy is decent though. An strange product. It feels like it will age poorly.
