Users opinions and questions

Tesla Model S is the first mass-produced electric sedan. This electric car has well-equipped interior. It has a tablet to handle many things, which is very useful and can be seen in the car modernity.

A fascinating look of the car is the Tesla Model S. Why? This appearance is rare. You can see that this is something new and definitely seeing this car we looked at it with great attention. The interior also is interesting.

I had the opportunity to test this car and I'm impressed. Convenience, comfort and convenience again. As for the electric car is quite fast, I'm fascinated. I guess I will think about buying.

In fact, I had never met with Tesla car, so finding out about this brand was a surprise. Even more surprisingly, when I saw how great are these cars. They are great not only in its appearance but also in action.

In my model, the Tesla Model S had a problem with the left rear seat. From the beginning it was I do not care, because what this could be wrong with this seat. I learned from the internet that this is a problem of poorly welded chairs and not only did I have such a problem. I decided I'd better have it serviced, as if he could in an accident (touch wood) that can then be more of a problem. Repair was not expensive, everything went well and today the seat is safer.

Frequently Asked Questions:

How does the over-the-air software update feature on the Tesla Model S enhance its safety and performance capabilities?

The over-the-air software update feature on the Tesla Model S significantly enhances its safety and performance capabilities by providing regular updates to improve functionality, address any bugs or issues that may arise, and incorporate new features and technologies. These updates are delivered directly to the vehicle through a wireless connection, without the need for the owner to physically take the car into a dealership for service. This not only saves time and convenience but also ensures the latest safety protocols and performance enhancements are integrated into the Model S, improving its overall reliability, efficiency, and driving experience. As software updates are delivered regularly, Tesla owners can expect their vehicles to remain state-of-the-art and competitive with newer models on the market.

How should I proceed if my Tesla Model S suddenly displays a "Low Battery Charge" warning?

If your Tesla Model S displays a "Low Battery Charge" warning, you should immediately pull over to a safe location and assess the situation. Here are some steps you can take:

1. Check the charging status: Use the touchscreen display or your Tesla app to check the battery charge level and charging status. If the car is currently charging, make sure it's connected securely to the charging station and there are no issues with the connection. Identify the cause: The "Low Battery Charge" warning can have several causes, including a low battery level, a faulty battery cell, or an issue with the charging system. Use your Tesla app or the touchscreen display to run diagnostic tests and check for any errors or faults. Contact Tesla support: If you're unable to resolve the issue yourself, contact Tesla support through the touchscreen display or your Tesla app. They can provide further assistance and advice on how to proceed. Charge the battery: If the battery is indeed low, use a charging station to charge it as soon as possible. Make sure you follow all safety precautions when charging, such as keeping the car in a well-ventilated area and not leaving it unattended while it's charging. Get the battery checked: If the "Low Battery Charge" warning persists or recurs frequently, it may be a sign of a more serious issue with the battery itself. In this case, you should take your Tesla Model S to a Tesla service center for a thorough battery inspection and any necessary repairs. Remember that the best way to avoid a "Low Battery Charge" warning is to keep your Tesla Model S charged regularly and follow good driving habits, such as using regenerative braking and avoiding unnecessary idling or acceleration. By taking these steps, you can help ensure the longevity and performance of your Tesla battery.

How should I address a sudden loss of power while driving my Tesla Model S?

In the event of a sudden loss of power while driving your Tesla Model S, please follow these steps:

1. Stay calm and avoid braking suddenly or making any abrupt movements that could affect vehicle stability. If it's safe to do so, pull over to the side of the road or onto a shoulder. Try restarting the vehicle by pressing the brake pedal and then tapping the accelerator pedal twice. This should initiate the Tesla's regenerative braking system and may restore power to the car. If restarting the vehicle does not work, contact Tesla Roadside Assistance immediately for assistance. Provide your location and any other relevant details about the loss of power. Do not attempt to jumpstart or tow the vehicle as this could damage the battery and electrical systems. Wait for roadside assistance to arrive and follow their instructions. Once the vehicle is running again, drive cautiously and get it checked out by a Tesla service center as soon as possible to diagnose the issue.

I've owned my Tesla Model S for a month now, but I'm still getting confused with the different charging modes - what's the best way to charge at home and on the go while also maximizing my battery life?

**

For home charging, I recommend using a Wall Connector (WC) or a Mobile Connector (MC). The Wall Connector is a dedicated charger that's specifically designed for Tesla vehicles. It's faster and more convenient than the Mobile Connector. Use a Level 2 (240V) charger for faster charging:
* Wall Connector: Up to 44 miles of range per hour
* Mobile Connector: Up to 28 miles of range per hour
* If you have a Tesla with a 75kWh battery, like the Model S, you can charge it from empty to full in about 8-10 hours using a Level 2 charger. On-the-go Charging:**

For on-the-go charging, Tesla has an extensive Supercharger network. You can use these high-power chargers to quickly top off your battery when you're out and about. Use the Supercharger network for fast charging:
* Up to 170 miles of range per hour
* Most Superchargers are located near highways, making it easy to stop and charge on the go

**Battery Life Maximization:**

To maximize your battery life, follow these tips:

* Avoid deep discharging (draining the battery below 20%): This can reduce the lifespan of your battery. Keep your battery level between 20% and 80% if possible: This is known as the "sweet spot" for battery health. Update your software regularly: Tesla often releases updates that improve battery performance and range. By following these guidelines, you'll be able to charge your Tesla efficiently at home and on the go while maximizing its battery life.
