I was able to speak to a Tesla Service representative in Fremont, CA regarding the water intrusion issue. He put me in contact with the nearest service center, which right now is in Springfield, NJ. George called me from the NJ center on Saturday, but I was not able to speak to him (I was in a restaurant with the phone off). My plan is to bring the car in on Monday and hopefully they can resolve this issue.
Sunday morning I drove out to Hamilton to visit the Supercharger, pick up a few books at the Barnes and Noble, visit Mercer County Park, and attend Mass at St. David The King Catholic Church (about 6 miles from the Supercharger). I highly recommend this 11:30am Mass for those Catholics who may be traveling and charging at the Hamilton Supercharger. I even let the pastor drive the Tesla around the huge parking lot there!
At the Supercharger, I met a nice family from NY who were traveling to Hershey, PA. Also, there was another family from Vermont. When I first arrived, I was the sixth Tesla that arrived to charge making it a full house (6 stations there). When I returned from the bookstore, several Teslas had moved on, and that is when the families arrived to charge. So, there were at least 8 Teslas within one hour! As I said before, other than Fremont, CA (the Tesla factory), NJ seems to have the most Teslas I’ve seen!
In a few days, I will let you know how the service center handled things. Until then, Be well. Frugal Tesla
Just met you in the NJ tesla service area. Hope the rest of your trip is a blast! I look forward to reading your tips before we head out on our trip!
Hi Cari, It was great talking to you at the Springfield, NJ service center. Good luck with your family journey and feel free to ask any questions along the way. You can even comment on the blog from your touch screen while supercharging during your trip! Happy travels, Frugal Tesla
