Fairness Movement for Tesla to Provide Free Supercharging to Early CT Adopters

[djJeffrey]

I order my CT back in 2019 and took delivery of the FS when it my turn this past Spring... waited many months to get FSD, wheel covers, etc. It's just disappointing that if I would have bought now, I'd get free lifetime supercharging.

Does anyone know how we can start petitioning Tesla to provide us early adopters with the same supercharging benefit?

I havent seen anything online but I'd sign it if you made one. I called out Elon on X (doubt he'll ever see it) but thats about it. It's a bummer for sure. They've done it with every other previous model and we're the ones who have dealt with the mess of early adopters. I think my truck has spent 6 weeks of its first 3 months in the shop. I was one of the few who got unlimited SC until Christmas which was nice but that is over and done. Would have been nice if they at least extended it for the 6 weeks it was in the shop. Especially since I was paying for a truck I couldnt use or charge.

I’d sign it

Dumb. You also got a $2500 credit (or more if Beast) that the new buyers didn’t get. Why didn’t you save that to use for SC miles? If Tesla raised prices, are you expected to pay Tesla the difference?

I actually spoke to a live human at Tesla this afternoon - one person at Supercharging support and the other at Sales. They welcomed the feedback, understood the concern and promised to provide the comments to their higher-ups. The Sales guy said they needed to move the CT's off the "showroom" floor an provided this incentive to clear inventory and was empathic to the early adopters. I don't expect Elon to bestow this supercharging benefit to us who ordered 5 years ago and took delivery this past year, but it was refreshing to speak to a human instead of their AI chatbot.

I hear the frustration, but we knew what we were buying at the time of purchase.

You want to start a petition so that Tesla will give you potentially thousands of dollars over a span of many mystery number of years as a goodwill gesture?

I'm not sure the shareholders or finance department will find that compelling.

i disagree. What we were buying and what we received is not even close to the same thing. I ordered tri motor $69k which I believe would have qualified for Tax deduction. Instead received unfinished product with many issues 4 plus year later at a cost of $30,000 more. For example as the cost of the production increased perhaps there should have bene updates. ie: Cybertruck will now cost $10,000 more then originally planned etc. But that didn't happen because Tesla wanted to keep the perception of 2 million on order. I knew because of production Tesla could not have worked through the list that quickly. All in all. I believe thread originator is correct. SC for life of ownership is not unreasonable and even fare. After all I did vote to give elon the 56B pay package....Come on elon. Mine Replaced tonneau, and other items we have in most part gone through as early adopters. Elon let's do the right thing here.....it has happened enough times with new models that majority of buyers will now stay away until the kinks have been worked out.

P.S. Here is 25 pages of us talking about this same subject:
Free lifetime supercharging for Foundation Series Cybertrucks in inventory | Tesla Cybertruck Forum - Cybertruck Owners Club

We need 50 pages more. And if that doesn’t work 50 more pages. Those bastages!

How about we get free supercharging until they deliver our wheel covers which will be forever.

Tesla is well-known for responding to customer feedback and giving away money ?

I wouldn't say no but I don't see it happening. Auto dealers frequently do year end promotions to clear inventory. I've never heard of them extending promotional offers retroactively.

You paid to have it ‘early’

don’t start crying now about fair.
