I wonder how Tesla determines who to offer these upgrades to.

Yes... I was told yesterday I'm getting a new drive unit. I'm VIN 1011 fwiw.

It would be interesting you read if you notice any differences in sound, power or range after you get it.

what is the increase? 1% 5% 20%? Who gets one? If it is every truck, I would only consider it is it is more then 20 % and definitely do it for a 50% increase, but I don't think that is going to happen.
Also sounds like a fake story.

I had a service appointment for another item that self corrected on a software update. The rep called me to confirm and when I canceled the appointment he told me. We are going to reschedule the appointment when they get wiper motor recall part and do both at once.

My VIN is low 700’s…haven’t been contacted.

 

[cybercoffee]

vin 1900s, also nothing yet. I've been lazy about scheduling the recall fix because I have no issues with wiper nor rear trim but I'll ask them when I schedule.

Like the article says, it’s for a select few motors.

 

[Gurule92]

That's odd.

do you notice a different range than tesla has claimed? Or other power issues?

 

[CyberFreak]

Maybe this is why 130mph on the CB has yet to be unlocked…

 

[CTOWannabe]

More efficient could mean more range. By how much I wonder?
