Cyberbeast/Foundation series purchase incentive Dec. 27, 2024

[SMWIII]

Has anyone been able to retroactively receive the benefit of free charging and free FSD retroactively? I took delivery of my Foundation series on Dec. 17 almost a year to the day of making deposit and initial configuration. Tesla is now offering free FSD and supercharging for life of initial ownership to clear out Foundation inventory. I was told that in order to receive these perks I would have had to purchase the FS after Dec. 27. For someone who has purchased FSD for every Tesla purchased since 2013 this is somewhat frustrating. I do not know who I can contact other than local store when calling customer service.

There's nothing you can do.

Good luck, 2 years ago I bought my Model S for $108K, not long after the same car was under $80K. I wish all I lost was free supercharging. I wouldn’t be as frustrated if Tesla didn’t call me and text me begging me to take an existing inventory car, after saying no I wanted to wait for my order 2-3 times I finally gave in and got 10K free Supercharger miles for buying a unit early. Mine would’ve came in after the price change……so essentially I paid $30K for 10K supercharging miles.

Welcome to Tesla ownership.

Welcome to Tesla hate. Haha I love it! Disillusionment. The core base will never ever fall for this again.

Foundation Series has included FSD since inception. The only change was removing the $2,500 Powershare/shop voucher and replacing it with free supercharging

How the base was duped is incredible. I mean this thing puts all other vehicles to shame as far as I’m concerned but the faker than fake hype with a waiting list and fake demand and wait times is super frustrating.

I feel your pain. But you know that Tesla won’t retrograde free SuperCharging. I’m eating the depreciation on my March, 2024 CT and got one with free SuperCharging. Free SuperCharging will be gone before you know it.

Good to know.

Sadly after dealing with Qmerit for months (not really they don't respond), getting a quote for double what it should be, and not the specs that the contractor and I discussed.... The free FSD doesn't sound like a bad trade. Who knows if we'll ever get our power shares.

For the cyberbeasts it was $2500 power share and $4000 install (install lost if not installed).

Yes, the $4K install credit disappeared fairly early in the run, maybe a few thousand Cyberbeasts were delivered that were eligible for both the $2,500 Powershare equipment credit and $4,000 Qmerit credit.

Any traction on this? I’m still holding my breath.

I’m hoping to never hear back from Qmerit. Hopefully they go out of business or just write off their Tesla venture. What was time period Tesla stipulated to get it installed to not lose the $4000 credit?

Unfortunately, it’s a 1st World Problem.
Tesla does Supercharging for Life at the end of year pushes many times since 2018 for their premium vehicles. If an individual wants this benefit, one just needs to wait for the right timing.
Without a doubt, they WILL offer it again. I plan on waiting until my CT is older and then wait for them to offer the deal again to purchase a new and improved CT. However, I do wish they would retroactively give the benefit for all of us pre-order Foundation Series. AND Tesla might once ALL of the FS have been purchased.

Thoughts?

I had always hoped Tesla would retroactively reward us when the time was right.
