    Question for Tesla owners

    Agree with these comments. The car is probably OK. When a Tesla is parked at home, all of these features would normally be turned off. The owner should be able to turn these features off remotely from his phone. Suggest you plug it in a day before pickup and recharge.

    Oil Spec Question

    I would use a quality synthetic oil that meets Hyundai's ACEA or API specification, per owners manual. MB, VW, BMW oils are for extended oil drain intervals, not Hyundai's 7,500 mi.

    doesn't sound good (chip shortage to actually worsen)

    Hyundai/Kai is reporting they will be up to 100% production by end of year. This is after they decided to produce their own chips in early 2021.

    Keep in mind that you need ACEA A5, which limits your options. I have been using 5W30 Mobil 1 in my Hyundais without any issues.
