125k miles on my 2020. It's been flawless. Just normal maintenance like tires, cabin filter, and brake fluid. Been to Tesla service center for two precautionary recalls.
In terms of build quality one tweeter speaker got lose which caused a rattle that I was able to fix, and I sometimes get a rattle from the passenger side B pillar, otherwise everything else has been great.
I've lost maybe 10-12ish miles of range due to degradation, most of that happened in the first two years, I've haven't seen it degrade any further in years.
The dashcam UI is HUGE. No more wondering if a person is using FSD or not and you get blinker usage and if you were braking or pressing on the accelerator.
My Model Y 2026 became sorta like this so I used a razor and I was able to scrape some. And I used a microscope to see what it was and couldn’t figure out what it was.
Turns out it was tiny particles of microfiber being stuck due to static and it was very difficult to get off, because it isn’t glue or just sitting there, but stuck there by static electricity. U can’t feel it, and can’t wipe off with ur finger.
I used monitor cleaning spray because they have anti-static stuff on it. Then used Invisible Glass. And they came off.
Pros:particles came off with special spray
Cons:microfiber particles stuck by static, difficult to remove
I just noticed this on my Model Y Juniper last week, and no matter how hard i Try I cannot get it cleaned off!! I hate having perfectly clean glass and seeing these!
I’ve got a Tesla Model Y built in **November 2024**. Recently it was in a Tesla Approved Body Shop to repair some paint damage. After the repair, I noticed something strange on my **front windshield**: there are tiny **metallic / glitter-like dots**spread across the entire glass.
You only see them when driving **directly into the sun**, when the sunlight shines strongly into the cabin. Under normal conditions or on cloudy days, they’re basically invisible. You **can’t feel them** from inside or outside and you **can’t wipe them off** – they seem to be **inside the glass layer** itself.
At first, the shop and I thought it might be overspray or paint mist from the repair. They even cleaned the windshield with thinner, but nothing changed. During that process someone actually scratched the glass in my field of view, so they replaced the whole windshield with a **brand new Tesla OEM windshield**.
The weird part:
The **new windshield has exactly the same effect** – tiny glitter-like particles across the whole surface, only visible when the sun hits it directly, again not feelable and clearly **inside the glass**.
Because I was pretty annoyed and curious, I started comparing with other cars in my family:
* **Model 3 (2022)**, first factory windshield, never repainted → has the **same dots**.
* **Model Y (Sept 2024)**, first factory windshield, never repainted → also has the **same dots**.
The body shop also checked a few other Teslas they had in for repair (both Model 3 and Model Y, different years). They looked at **five cars** and all five windshields showed these same glitter-like points in the glass.
So at this point I’m convinced it’s **not paint overspray**, because several untouched cars with original glass show the exact same thing.
Cons:glitter-like dots, visible in sun, inside glass layer, annoying
