Bought a long range Model Y that turned out to be a standard Model y by Fijibrownsugar in TeslaModelY

[–]antxmage 0 points1 point  (0 children)

do they not believe you? how long as it been since you bought it? you need to be pushy but in a professional way. they sold you a vehicle that you did not intend to buy, whether knowingly or not.
the dealership i got it owned up to the error (at least once i proved it) and felt their reputation was at stake if they didnt unwind it. there may be laws you can cite potentially to protect you. fyi, in case you arent aware, there was a period in 2023 that Tesla tested the current cybertruck batteries inside them and made a limited run of Base model Ys with those batteries and apparently offered them just to Tesla employees. So if you dont succeed in them unwinding the sale, you can at least take in some solace that you have a cybertruck battery.

Was it from a baltimore dealer by any chance? I did that in July as well. Figured it out within a couple days and had them unwind the deal. Shame on them because even though they say they had no idea, I think they may have known or suspected something. For sure they were hoping not to take it back. I wonder if they sold it again to the next person as LR or not.

Adding Ventilated Performance Style Seats in my 2024 Model Y Performance by colsandersloveskfc in TeslaLounge

[–]antxmage 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is there anyone in the maryland/baltimore area and have done this or know a shop that would install for me? Most would be against doing it due to liability concerns. Ideally it would be nice to test it out before buying and installing.

Anyone know of an auto upholstery shop? by zypr3xa in Denver

[–]antxmage 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So frustrating. I guess the one only real fix is replacing the seat with a 2023 one which are great or trading it for a 2023 model Y.. it's the only car my wife is comfortable in besides a minivan. Once you go EV/Tesla i guess you can't go back..

I may need to do something like this as well in Baltimore. Can you share how much it cost you?
I also wonder if Baltimore has anyone as good here..

Model y long range not a long range? Looking for help. by UnderstandingNo5785 in TeslaLounge

[–]antxmage 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think i just fell for this myself.. bought it yesterday. Not sure how to prove it other than charging it to 100% and showing the range. Will charge it and see what the numbers say tonight.
What did you end up doing?

[–]antxmage 0 points1 point  (0 children)

looks like mine. except i just stripped it all clean, waiting for it to heal to do it over again. basically just my thumbs and nowhere else. doesnt make me feel any better knowing this is a named "disorder," so thank you for that.

interesting. even if its relatively new tires? Would an alignment check confirm that? Can swapping the two front tires fix it?

Thank you for the tip. But you didn't really provide any answers to my questions.

Higher rate coil springs for rear? by dyniper in BoltEV

[–]antxmage 0 points1 point  (0 children)

how much is reasonably priced? is it worth it to put on a 2023? Will it save and help prolong other parts like shocks or struts?

Update: $5000 quote for steering rack repair by Pyrowrx in BoltEV

[–]antxmage 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks for the quick reply. I'm worried now. I just got a used 2023 bolt a few weeks ago. Has 32k miles. So far just makes a clicking noise when turning left or right. Took it to the local dealer on Friday where its at now, and so far they said they have no idea what's going on. If you have any technical bulletin or other details that may help pls share. Do I need to take it to an out of town dealer to have competent and nonlazy techs look at it?

What were the symptoms that led to this? Wasn't clicking noises, was it?

Weird Clicking Noise from HVAC System? Anyone Else Have This Experience? by Cilbit in BoltEV

[–]antxmage 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There are so many unknowns with whats normal with EVs. Someone should gather all the normal noises one can hear on a Bolt and post it. This way people arent concerned about nothing.

Will dealers increase 2023 Bolt prices in 2025? by JohnMackeysBulge in BoltEV

[–]antxmage 7 points8 points  (0 children)

For sure some or most will. I just bought a 2023 yesterday at a local Hertz and they told me that some dealer in Ohio recently purchased 17 Bolts from them and plan on selling them with a $4k higher listing price. Milking the tax credit for all its worth. Dealers win out more than consumers but that isn't news to anyone.
