I'd have to go back any review my paperwork for sure, but best I can remember the first was at 37k, the second around 55k and the third was just 2 weeks after the 2nd. First two were due to the milling noise between 20-30mph the third was due to a clunking noise when excelerating and braking...

Currently having my 4th drive unit (3rd replacement) installed at Carlsbad now.

I got the call last Wednesday the 27th that the DU had come in. Dropped it off same day and had it back Friday afternoon. What a difference it makes! 183 days, just glad it's over.

I opened a case with Kevin after about 30 days had passed. To clarify, the vehicle is operable and I am driving it. Although the noise is almost unbearable. It's embarrassing.

I'm curious how many owners out there have a drive unit replacement on order and how long have you been waiting? I brought my EV in to Toyota Carlsbad on October 30th, November 2nd the drive unit was ordered from Tesla. At the time I was quoted "about 2 weeks" by the service advisor, which I...

When I accepted the Wattbox offer and joined the pilot I was told I would still be eligible for the free Juicebox offer since the pilot supported staggered hardware delivery, once it received the UL listing of course. Since I have enrolled and Emotorwerks is receiving payments from the utility...

Yes, I had the same whine noise between 20-30mph. It started around 10k miles and continued to get worse until I finally couldn't take it anymore and took it to Toyota Carlsbad at 37k. They look an audio recording and sent it to Toyota and Tesla engineers. 63 days later I had a new drive unit...

Did you ever receive a follow up from toyota? I'm now in a similar situation. After 68 days in service for a drive unit replacement I had the car for 1 day and someone hit my parked rav.

I'm in the same boat. I was told by Toyota corporate that the average time for the dealer to receive the replacement from Tesla was 8-9 weeks based on them monitoring the process from order to delivery. Of course Tesla gives no official estimate. I've been waiting 8 weeks (57 days) with no...

Just be thankful it only took 3 days. When my on board charger failed at 7100 miles my rav sat at Toyota for 43 days before Tesla supplied the part to repair. I've since put 22,000 miles on it with no problems.

At least you were given an approximate date. Mine sat at Toyota carlsbad waiting for a replacement on board charger and was never given any timeframe until the part arrived at the dealer.....43 days later. Good luck.

Wawanesa.com Local company out of San Diego. Great rates but they will only accepted clean records. My new rav4 ev was only slightly more to insure than my 5 year old Prius.

The reason I asked is because I had the same issue. In my experience when the vehicle wouldn't charge on 240 but would charge on 110 is was a firmware issue which was fixed with an update. When the vehicle failed to charge on 240 and 110 is was a charger failure.

Have you tried to charge on 110v?

Tesla doesn't physically do any work on these vehicles so proximity to a Tesla service center wouldn't make a difference. Tesla will remotely troubleshoot the vehicle and advise Toyota techs. If it's determined that a Tesla part failed they will replace it. Unfortunately for us owners, Toyota is...

Yes. Twice. The first occurrence it failed to charge and I received the dreaded screen of death, "Check EV system" It turned out to be a software issue. The dealer was able to troubleshot and update the same day and send me on my way. The second time I was not so lucky. No screen of death...

I feel your pain. My EV has been at Toyota of Carlsbad for 29 days now awaiting a replacement on board charger from Tesla. Tesla doesn't provide any information on shipping/ETA for the part to arrive.

No dice. Spoke with Eric, nice guy but said there was nothing he could do. Due to a shortage of connectors corporate has informed the service centers that their stock is strictly for warranty replacement. All orders must now be online which means we are stuck with the pricier bundle option only...
