6 things James May hates about his Tesla

3 жыл бұрын

James May’s had his Tesla Model S for more than a year, so he’s had plenty of time to fall in love with it. But it’s not perfect - so join May in his bunker for a rundown of his dislikes in proper KZfaqr style. He’ll probably be asking what colour to wrap it next…

Hey James. I work for Tesla and I can help! 2: The door handles will come out automatically if you have Walk Away Door Lock on. When you walk away the door locks. When you walk back in range it will unlocks and door handles will present themselves. 3: when you get out of the car you could leave your door open and the car stays on. But when you sit down, push the brake pedal the car turns on and you can put the car in drive. It’s very quick. 4: you don’t have to push the trunk close button if that sound will wake up your neighbors. You can just manually pull the trunk down and close it. Then it will not make that audible Beep sound.

I've got the MS90D (2017) and I also have a noise from the suspension, exactly as James states it sounds like a worn bush or a non-tight bolt in the suspension. Just last week I've also started to get a noise from the front suspension/wheels. When turning right around e.g. around a roundabout, there's a whoosh, whoosh type noise when the tyre rotates, as if something is rubbing on the tyre / suspension / calipers. It's going into the service centre next week to be looked at.

I’ve reported the exact same “clunking” from the suspension to Tesla. If you drive with windows down it’s very noticeable over uneven surfaces. They road tested my Model X And several others which all did it. They narrowed it down to the “brake pad heat shields”, they removed and retested and noise was gone. I pulled them up on this as asked if they meant brake disc heat shield but they said brake pad shields? Do your thing Mr May and investigate further and put me out my misery.

What I really don’t like about Tesla is the lack of buttons. Most annoying being that there isn’t a stick to determine the speed of the windscreen wipers. I get it, Tesla wants you to use the automatic mode for the windscreen wipers. But sometimes the automatic mode just doesn’t work for me. For instance when it turns on when it doesn’t rain or when the rain sensor is to aggresive when it doesn’t rain that hard. I just want to be able to adjust it very quickly without having to do that on the touchscreen.

Hey James! The car won't recognise the key if you haven't driven it for a day or two. It goes into a bit of a deeper sleep, so it needs to be sort of awoken with either the key press or the door press - however, if you're having the problem after opening the gate where the door handle isn't presenting itself, it sounds like a proper issue. The car doesn't 'turn off'. It should just be as simple as opening the door and flicking it into drive again, and going on your way. As for the rear suspension noise - yeah, I have that too. I think it might be to do with the foot brake coming loose after trying to accelerate. But it is definitely a 'concerning sound' to say the least - even though it probably isn't a problem at all. Hopefully something they might minimize or fix in future iterations. You might not read this but hey! Worth a shot.

Newer Model S doesn't have that badging anymore, just Dual Motor or Dual Motor with the underline for performance. For car turning off - don't fully close your door when you go about to open the gate, the car won't turn off.

Agreed about the car shutting off when you go to open your gate. My Golf EV does the same thing. I had a RAV4 EV (actually 2) that did not do that.

@dippegalant Жыл бұрын

The lettering? For easy identification in the case of an emergency. It's the same on almost any vehicle. The door handles? So that they don't pop in and out all the time when walking around the car and not wanting to get in it. Why it turns off? Every bit it saves on energy helps the environment. The boot sound? Because you can press that button by a mistake, when you have your head in the boot. And so, Mr. May, most of your criticisms have a perfectly valid answer.

The "Model" S and "100D" are actually in new times Roman which is a bit odd how they couldn't keep their cool Tesla logo font on the whole car.

Another problem with the doors is that if something goes wrong with the battery, you can't get out, and that goes from annoying to lethal if the "something wrong" is the battery catching fire. Powered doors do have a place in terms of accessibility, but they should always be able to be open manually as well.
