How good is the 2021 Tesla Model 3 Long Range after 6 Months of ownership?

[@OfficialShmandarin]

I can 100% recommend the full front paint protection film as well as the ceramic window tint, both have really helped me as well!

[@duster497]

Good review!!! Look forward to seeing what you guys get for a second vehicle.

Thank you, Todd! We really appreciate the continued support! - Brandan

Always love seeing the fun additions Tesla owners make with mods. Thanks for sharing the updates, good and bad.

[@EverydayEV]

Thanks Steve!

I have the dash rattle and Bluetooth issues, too. Both are embarrassing. I’ve never checked my 12V, but I will now. The phantom braking sounds scary, but I don’t use AP much. I do notice that sometimes the lane keep assist will let me wander all over the road and other times it’s very active. Weird.

[@EverydayEV]

The dash rattle just started for us as we hit 11,000 miles, soooo not sure what that’s about. Thankfully it should be covered under warranty! The 12v battery issue was something that seriously surprised us, but know a lot of EVs tend to run into 12v battery issues from time to time, but the corrosion was something new. We stopped using AP as often due to this problem, we will use it occasionally but we can’t relax when the system is on. 😅 I’m hoping an OTA will fix this for everyone - Brandan

@@EverydayEV check the rear view mirror. Mine was rattling like crazy. Sounded like the dashboard.

[@mikesevgarage]

Great video. Looking forward to seeing what you all get next 😊

[@EverydayEV]

Thank you!! 😁⚡️ the unveil will be in a few weeks!

[@caseykittel]

10:10. Check the rear view mirror. Gets loose. Sound like the dash is rattling.

Do you like the 2021 over the 2022? Im looking at both model 3 long range, think I’m going to get the 2021 due to bad reviews on tesla vision

[@longlivetheclash]

Good video! I do notice a rattle here and there in my 2021 M3LR, but the camera lag, 12 V battery and/or charge port door issues I have not noticed. The only issues I have had with my car is when I was getting my roof tinted, the technician noticed a chip in the exterior roof glass, and Tesla replaced that glass under warranty. The car does not always recognise my phone key and I have had serious issues with phantom braking a couple of times (both incidences were in the first 10,000 miles).

[@EverydayEV]

Thanks for your comment Adam! I am having the same issue with my iPhone (14 Pro) not recognizing phone as a key and it’s been an issue the entire time I’ve had that iPhone. Brandan’s 13 Pro has been great for him. We also experience phantom braking but notice it has been less frequent on the highway routes we take, but still very noticeable in Autopilot. Glad Tesla was able to replace that glass for you! Hopefully the rest of your ownership experience is great! - Tyler

Great Review Guys! Will definitely get the PPF. Had it on my last car and kept the car looking new

[@EverydayEV]

Awesome, thats a great choice! And thank you for your comment, we appreciate you watching! - Brandan

[@FthePump]

The 3 is great. I like my S, but for canyons and track, the 3 is amazing.

[@TurboAutist-sg7lo]

Help me! I cant choose between a Polestar 2 and a model 3 from 2021. I live in Sweden which is in the eu so we can use all tesla superchargers and full self driving is illegal and not possible.

[@callmebigpapa]

You car uses less electricity than my homelab, impressive!

[@Funny-bf8xf]

lol the glovebox still isn't aligned properly like most of the car. fingers crossed, it's ok as long as you can't see it. HAHA GL getting one of those.

[@EverydayEV]

Thanks for your comment Funny46! We haven't had any panel gap or alignment issues minus a power trunk alignment when we first picked it up. Otherwise it's been great but we hope it stays that way too haha. - Tyler

[@andybute]

What range are you getting, typically?

[@EverydayEV]

We were seeing well over 330 miles of driving range with our Long Range Model 3. The 18" aero wheels definitely help!

[@SteveRowe]

Thanks for the review! Writing tip: prefer "use" over "utilize".

[@EverydayEV]

Thanks for the tip Steve!! - Tyler

[@HoopsandHorsepower]

Sweet Ohio here too 🤟🏻

[@pedipedi9559]

Phantom breaking is the worst experience. I’ve stopped using autopilot all together. My 2019 VW Tiguan had better cruise control and lane assistance than my 2 month old Tesla. The car is not worth it’s money, period. Quality sucks and the tec is glitchy. If I knew the phantom breaking was so bad, I would have never bought the car.

[@greatpariscars]

Slam on brakes during autopilot use? Never, ever use autopilot. Only stupid people would do that.

[@cfunk10]

We we we we our our our our. Gets kind of annoying.

[@EverydayEV]

I mean, it was an ownership review 😅 - Brandan

[@freeweight5437]

Your negative and irrelevant comment is much more annoying than the video review of THEIR car
