14 TESLA Model 3/Y Hidden Features OWNERS Don’t Know

[@MelissaD77]

I just press the right button and say "open glovebox". No need to go to the screen or put it as a shortcut.

[@vegasteslafamily]

This is true!

[@chrisgregoryrph]

How are you getting alerts from Sentry mode previews?

[@vegasteslafamily]

When the alarm goes off it will send one

[@chrisgregoryrph]

@ oh well yes, I was hoping for actual Sentry alerts

[@ddb5736]

The Park feature is just to apply the brakes harder. When you put your Tesla on Park, it applies the parking brakes to hold it since there is no transmission to hold it. If you use the Park option by holding down the Park, it will apply the brakes harder which is very useful when you park on an incline.

[@vegasteslafamily]

Didn’t know this! So a more intense park brake sort of lol

[@thefilmpoets]

the pull down for home navigation is great. never heard of that one!

[@vegasteslafamily]

Glad to help!

[@cellman1829]

I love Tesla. One of my favorite shows growing up in the ‘80s was Knight Rider. I always wanted a talking car , drives itself and a TransAm so I got the next best thing. Refreshed M3 LR. My car’s name is KITT and the lock sound is KITT’s scanner. It’s freaking awesome 😂😂

[@mike330i]

Nice. If you have an iPhone, you can change "Hey Siri" to "Hey KITT" to open/close trunk, doors, etc.

[@vegasteslafamily]

Haha! That's awesome. Glad you are loving it.

[@liamsharp6491]

@@mike330inot just me then! 😂

[@ArmandoTrades]

How did you make the Tesla appear so large on the home screen?

[@vegasteslafamily]

It's the update if thats what i think you're referring to!

[@franklandice]

Love your videos.. Thanks for taking the time to make them

[@vegasteslafamily]

Thanks, glad you like them! Thanks for watching

[@silent_spitfire]

Joe is a hero!

[@vegasteslafamily]

Haha yes she is

[@mousetreat]

And now I would like to be able to DISABLE autopilot sounds. I don't need my car to beep at me for enabling/disabling cruise control. And, worse, lower my volume every time it makes a beep.

[@kida12]

Can you set the trunk to open higher again?

[@vegasteslafamily]

Yep! Can always adjust

[@aaronbounds1336]

My wife did the exact same thing to our white M Y…except we got several small dents in the top of the trunk lid, and a split in the paint.

[@vegasteslafamily]

Oh no i guess we are lucky then lol

[@markanthony5719]

Thx for the parking break mode. I wonder if that would be the solve for all those cars slipping away from their snowy driveways? 🤔

[@vegasteslafamily]

Haha I’m not sure honestly!

[@harriettanthony7352]

@@vegasteslafamily You may not be sure of the issue, but this Maine driver is! The only way to keep a car parked on a snow, icy incline is big wheel chocks, or tie the EV to a solid object!

[@canadianrcpilot9048]

You can use voice commands - there is one for open glovebox

[@vegasteslafamily]

This is also true

[@rh8611]

Great video. Thanks for sharing. He might be able to fix that nic in your wrap.

[@vegasteslafamily]

Thanks! We’re gonna get a spoiler on it!

[@rh8611]

@ hope you make a video or show it after

[@vegasteslafamily]

@ will do!

[@JeffreyReich]

Just got mine last Thursday, and the very next day, the teenager parked the car halfway in the garage, and the other opened the trunk, and BAM, nice new scratch. I too will be getting a spoiler soon!

[@colinpovey7923]

Spoiler is expensive and tends to not stick so well. I put some pool noodles on inside of the garage door and if the rear hatch opens too high, it hits them, not the door. I still have the height set not to hit the door.

[@vegasteslafamily]

Oh no! We're getting one for our Y from Tesery. We got a spoiler from them for our model 3 and it's held up great and looks OEM. Discount code vegastesla will save you 10% there! :)

[@sm753]

FYI, having the Tesla widget on your home screen (iOS) "allegedly" wakes up the car a lot more so you may experience more battery drain when parked and not plugged in. Which makes sense because it may need to poll the car more often to refresh the widget data.

[@vegasteslafamily]

I think this has been updated! Ours says “asleep for x hours” until we click on something on the widget

[@joels9768]

The really important way to escape the car if you have no power, like if you back your car into a pond.

[@vegasteslafamily]

Ah that would have been a good one

[@Chrisb8s]

Jojo my car has a full ppf wrap. I have done that mistake twice. When I put my bike rack on I back up to the garage. Someone tweet Elon to make that geofenced so it only goes up as high as you want in a location. The jojo mode

[@vegasteslafamily]

Haha the jojo mode would be epic!

[@GrumpyWolfTech]

I just got a 2022 model 3 today, first thing I did when I got home was use the fart option on my brother when he took the trash out. 🤣 When I saw Joe mode it confused me, glad you explained it.

[@vegasteslafamily]

Haha! It's still fun even 2 years later. Glad to help :)

[@trinitybruns]

Not a stupid mistake my dear. A simple easy to make mistake that a lot of people have made. Plus IF the car is wrapped it probably saved the paint and they can just rewrap the trunk portion and it will be as if it never happened.

[@vegasteslafamily]

True! We will be covering it with the spoiler!

[@M3NTALMAGIC]

None of these are hidden

[@vegasteslafamily]

I think they are!

[@abbcc555]

Not all secrets are good. Most owners don't know that Teslas lose 30% in value in the first year.

[@vegasteslafamily]

That’s a not a secret! Most vehicles do.

[@abbcc555]

@vegasteslafamily Unfortunately Tesla is in it's own class in this regard. Very few if any lose that much value.

[@d_lydian]

Still waiting for the hidden features in this video.

[@vegasteslafamily]

Did the video not work?

[@MaxBrooksT]

I have Disney plus and Hulu on my car

[@leonaeffah4000]

lol same

[@vegasteslafamily]

Interesting! Idk why we don't

[@leonaeffah4000]

@ You should have Hulu. I know Elon got some beef with Disney and took that app away from some cars but mines never went away. And I have a 23 Model 3. Barely over a year old

[@darwin171069]

I knew 12/14... not bad for a new tesla owner! Oh and I made that same ding on my trunk 😂 a rite of passage i guess

[@vegasteslafamily]

Haha it seems like a rite of passage! I'm glad I can help fill you in on 2!

[@s.porter8646]

Why are you making a vid on how to open the trunk....in the desert....wheres the shovel

[@vegasteslafamily]

Haha 😂

[@TaylerKnox]

Now that Matt has left Congress is the rumor Gaetz is headed for a position on Tesla’s board of directors credible?

[@vegasteslafamily]

Find something better to do!

[@jamesr.9239]

My garage door gotchaed my two week old Model Y so now instead of risking it , I just back in so no more dings from that source. Who wooda nude that the place you put your car to protect it would be so dangerous.

[@vegasteslafamily]

Haha! A lot of comments like this make us seem like we are not alone

[@emazonreviews6269]

First. !!! Road trip ! Road Trip !!!😂thanks for sharing these so many cool features about the car

[@vegasteslafamily]

Haha we got one coming soon! You better watch with all these road trip comments 😂

[@PUMPADOUR]

All i want is to drive, not waste time with annoying extra settings. I hate my tesla!

[@vegasteslafamily]

Haha hey to each their own

[@hey8you]

1:22 Parking brake come on automatically when put into park. There is no need to manually do it. Whenever my friends are around my car, I love to make it fart or I say embarrassing things through the mic, lol.

[@vegasteslafamily]

I’ve heard holding it drops the brakes tighter then? Cause the park symbol does come up

[@hey8you]

That's what I read but looking more into it its seems to be a bit confusing. Looks like an older version of the manual says its automatic but the current one does not mention it. Since the parking brake is loud, it should be able to prove easily with 2 people, or one person and a camera to hear if the parking brakes engages when the car is put into park.
