The gate for my community works with HomeLink to open automatically when I come into the community. Yay!
Unfortunately, when I'm leaving, the exit gate opens automatically for all vehicles leaving; so when my homelink triggers based on GPS coordinates, it opens the *entry* gate, allowing unauthorized vehicles into the community.

HomeLink should store the direction of travel as well as the GPS coordinates, and allow... more »

Smart watch to be used as communicative accessory and keyless access to vehicles. The device embedded in this smart watch will also be used for security and pulse monitor to determine the driver's concentration and communicate with the driver through monitor to suggest that a driver take a break in the event that fatigue is detected. Because this watch will always be warn by the driver it will detect when the driver is... more »

When my passenger playing the screen to search on Spotify, I lose track of my navigation, as the navigation is not sound enabled,

During my holidays I missed 2 times the exit, 1 with Spotify, 1 with careoke.

An incentive mechanism for EV owners; TeslaToken

TeslaToken (TT) can be an ERC20 token built and run on top of Ethereum blockchain. Supply of TT will be predetermined and limited (ex: 50 TTs every 10 mins until 21m reached..) Clearing of transactions will be done in a decentralized manner in Ethereum blockchain while supply of TT will be done via Tesla. Newly minted TT will only enter the system(become part of circulating... more »

My wife does not like one pedal driving, but low gen uses up the brakes too much and reduces range. Can we have a mid point? Perhaps when in 'Chill' Mode the regen on one pedal braking is a bit softer.

Don't need 20% (2 of the 10 icons) taken up with seat heaters that I will never use if I live in a hot climate.

Phase 1: Implement summer mode (manual toggle) and replace the 2 icons with more useful features such as phone or energy graph.

Phase 2: Implement auto detection when temperature exceeds x degrees then remove seat icons.

Phase 3: Let user re arrange and select from all icons like on an iPad dock.

If the Tesla sees a car fast approaching, it should flash the rear break lights to try to get the attention of the driver.

😎 Nuff said. Maybe go to half or double time depending on beat and level of rain.

Suggestion is to use the right button on the steering wheel for vertical scrolling usage in the music player.
So for much safer scrolling to the music / album suggestions in Spotify or the available list of radio stations. Without having to leave the right hand from the steering wheel. The left scroll button is of course for the volume. So why not make use of the right steering wheel button. For vertically scrolling... more »

It would be great if there was a music setting that could enable an outdoor music //party mode for use when out of car, with windows down etc. It would be great if Tesla app or screen could allow for a non-driving music mode which disables in-car features (ie. turning sound down on car door opening / turning off system when not in car). #TeslaPartyMode

Open Front Trunk with 3 clicks on fob instead of 2. Too often I accidentally open the Front Trunk whole trying to open the Back Trunk via fob in my pocket.

Fob is in little pouch and not clear feel of what is front and what is back side of fob.

The "screen-saver" with the camp-fire in the camp-mode is cute - for the first five minutes. After that and the rest of the night it is actually kind of annoying.
To continue the analogy of the "screen-saver", why not turn off the screen completely after X minutes? If you touch the screen it will light up again (of course).

When I tried out this feature I turned down the screen-light to the lowest possible level. As... more »

It would be fun and useful if the car would record the total miles driven by each profile.

 

This would:

- Settle the score on who drives it the most.

-- And who drives it the most conservatively or aggressively.

- Allow for personal vs business mileage tracking. Just add another profile for activation when driving for work vs pleasure.

I would like to suggest a Bluetooth connectivity ability to those with hearing disabilities & Hearing aids. Bluetooth would be able to speak to the driver with functions such as navigation, emergency vehicles approaching (which lane). For those who are deaf, Tesla can have visual/vibrations for autopilot, emergency notifications.

It would be awesome if the car would navigate and driving in a way that would sync it to stoplight traffic flow. Slow down or speed up so it hits the most green lights as possible.
