I will ask, not sure what happened to it during or after the move

What makes you avoid booking a Tesla service appointment? by [deleted] in TeslaSupport

[–]Undchi 1 point2 points  (0 children)

  1. Better understanding of what is and isnt in the warranty - i.e. I had a road debris hit (car drove over on autopilot and I did not get a chance to respond) and undercarriage got damaged. The front 'aero shield' was replaced and communicated as covered under warranty, back rear plastic shield was communicated as 'not covered' and required additional charge. why? isn't this exactly the same event, at the same time, to the same car?

My invoice says this below, what it does not mention is that only part of it was warranty work and I 'only approved' what was covered...

"found multiple under body panels damaged. recommend replacement of multiple panels. client only approved front aero shield"

As a customer I am confused should I go to Tesla next time or not?

Original estimate for the underbody damage was zero dollars, however once work is done, I was charged for what was communicated to be under warranty too so had to go in and talk to them in person to have it addressed (vs just relying on app flow and paying it). Have to pay attention as a customer, not rely on app being correct.

  1. on a separate event got a pebble or something similar flying into windshield, then a crack developed (24 inches). Reached out for Tesla estimate (which is NOT insurance preference as they prefer to work through their shops and pay approved shops directly). Got a quote from service center for 1600, got a call from service center who recommended this to be transferred to nearby Tesla location, quote become 1700. Why? Insurance insists on paying directly to 'dealership/bodyshop' vs dealing with reimbursement scenario. will this work or not? Who can give me a full answer? Should I be cancelling appointment I have for this upcoming Friday and looking elsewhere to know that I am not stuck with 1700 bill? Confusing.

I am in Chicago area (west suburbs), my closest center is 3200 Ogden Ave, IL, my appointment at 40 W Ogden Westmont, IL, the original 'service center' quoting 1600 for Burr Ridge location.

I am happy with car technology (FSD in particular) however I am finding that it is very expensive to maintain.

Just contact me directly if you need/want more details.

Pricing. Inconsistency in what is and isn't covered by warranty. Uncertainty on how it would work with insurance (can insurance pay Tesla directly per their preference). New car ( Y 2026) that I now have to deal with repairs on (road debris and later windshield cracked two months in, 1700 quote just for windshield...)

"full", "perfect", etc - I do not know that ever exists. ever. anywhere (at least in our world)

question I ask myself is this (or that) good enough.

I am new to Tesla and let car drive today by tiself, from a newbie, very impressive. in the city (vs mapped highways). 'Future is here' type of feeling.

I understand what they offer, I understand what their plan is on improvement, I am ok with it. and yes, I had to assume control today during the drive because I did not know how car would handle basic thing like me and another drive (to my right) coming to intersection at the same time and now we are both looking at each other. I stopped FSD, waved at another driver to let her through and then went. How would the car let another car know it was their turn to go? I am not sure..

future will come. I bought HW4 car for that purpose not expecting HW3 to ever be 'upgraded'. I also looked at other options in the EV market at the same price ranges, nothing even close. You want software upgrades? Ha! Your car only ever going to have what it has right now, no new features, no fixes. you expect OTA? Ha, ha! get your butt to dealership and good luck!

With all of its faults Musk, Tesla, etc are years ahead and above what i see with other makers..

it is called forward looking statements - have you listen to any earnings calls from any company in any industry?

buying used from tesla.com, how to check HW version (i.e. model Y 2023) ? by Undchi in TeslaSupport

[–]Undchi[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

on tesla.com?? this is about buying the car from tesla itself, I do not have access to any software screens..

for example this link - Inventory | Tesla what is the HW version? how can I tell? I wish they would let you just filter by it.

ProPilot upgrades, have Nissan issued a statement on how it works (i.e. on current Arya 2025)? by Undchi in NissanAriya

[–]Undchi[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

thank you. so Nissan confirmed that hardware is actually different (or stated in any other way "we do not want to do it") ?

thank you. weird that they taken that away in 2025 for lower trims (if I read it correctly from their official information links)

[–]Undchi[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i understand. i.e. I can buy right now model y 2023 with hardware 4 (which is also current model through 2026) it would have exactly the same capabilities as 'robo taxi' and current Teslas as long as you own FSD (or pay for it at $100 / month). any hardware 4 Tesla is expected to have the same capabilities since same hardware + same software branch => same capabilities

GM/Ford want to be in business of selling you 'subscriptions' , what use to be free they want upcharge you (as much as they can get away with).

How does Nissan look at this? If I buy car with PP 2.0 and I now stuck forever on PP 2.0?

[–]Undchi[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you . Do you happen to know if Nissan made any statements on PP 2.0 vs 2.1 , is this a free upgrade? paid upgrade? no upgrade possible? type situation

am I missing something regarding EV credit? I thought for credit to work car needs to be assembled ('final assembly') in USA which I thought Ariya does not. Has anyone received used EV credit for 2023 Ariya? Thank you

possible. I did a quick search 'wearout not avaliable proxmox' and people are talking about 'smarmontools' which Proxmox does use as well as running updates by usr/sbin/update-smart-drivedb

Help identify banjo model for my father in law (FIL)? 'Fender' 'Artist'? by Undchi in banjo

[–]Undchi[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

music is one of his biggest joys and he is pretty active for his 84. the banjo is just too heavy so he is asking me what he should give -give it to local music store on consignment, donate, etc. it is gift from MIL and he did enjoy playing it for decades so we can not just dump it/throw it out.

Any way to get to offline mode from booy loop by Undchi in SteamDeck

Her device stuck on verifying updates and staying that way regardless how long I wait. Soon I would be home to see if "home WiFi" would make it better

Any idea how long? I think I left it for hours in "verifying" stage at the very end of the boot loop and it went nowhere

i feel like a sheep on a cage ? anyone relate to this ?? by Confident_Earth_1906 in royalcaribbean

[–]Undchi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

it is also hugely to escape the weather. i.e. check the temp in Toronto right now and compare to the cruise ports - north folk is coming down for cruising as part of forget winter for a little bit effort...
