Not to mention cost, the R1S is the same price new, as I can get for my 4 year old X 100D. So for people that don't like the falcon doors and all the impacts there of, or (like me) really have a distain for the yoke steering wheel in the new X, and the loss of all of the physical controls, the R1S will definitely be an option. So your choices are the Tesla X or the R1S (and plug in hybrids don't count). There are no other 3 row 6-7 passenger SUV's out there. Now, this all said, do I think the R1S will cannibalize sales of the X? Totally. doors don't like to open at all in those situations. And parking in general is a suck-fest in narrow spots as whoever is in the back is screwed. Parking garages are a damn nightmare as those falcon doors are super leery of stuff above them. I had to buy a Yakima trailer for our kayaks (and got damn good at backing up a trailer as a result) since our roof racks won't work on it.
That said, it's also a huge pain in the ass. little boys, be they 6 or 46) are a hoot when they see it driving down the road or pulling in, especially when the rear doors pop up (not while driving down the road, I can't imagine the stresses on those hinges/joints as it is, add in movement and vibration. It's a cool damn car, fun to drive, and 95% of the time, does everything I ask of it (Camping, road tripping, trips to Costco, etc.). I do love it, odd squeaks, rattles, and all. So, went looking for a 6-7 passenger SUV that's and EV. Plus, every Dodge/Ram/Jeep product I've owned has turned into a damn maintenance nightmare, and it's warranty was up. mostly self inflicted wound there), but also the environmental impact I was having. This will prevent the odd electrical current from being passed to the sensor, and the system won't beep when the car is not in reverse.It's a great car and I went the route of the X to replace my custom built Dodge Durango R/T that I basically built out into an SRT (Whipple SuperCharger and all) as I was both tired of dropping $100+ a week on Premium (ya ya ya. To correct this problem you will need to purcase a Single By-Pass Circuit Relay for your vehicle and have it installed. This will cause a small electrical current to be passed to the sensor (because they are usually wired to the brake or turn signal light's power source). This is usually caused by the car's central computer processor testing the continuity of the brake lights or turn signals while the car is running. If you purchased a nicer car and then had the sensors installed, you may be experiencing a problem where the reverse parking sensors cause the monitor to beep about every 30 seconds or so - even if you are driving forward and not in reverse. Many owners of these types of vehicles then go on to have reverse parking sensors installed in their luxury vehicles, only to experience strange problems with intermittent beeping. That means there are many luxury cars that are sold without the option.

Aftermarket Sensors and Luxury CarsĪlthough many luxury cars come with built-in reverse parking sensors, it is an upgrade or option on many cars. To correct the problem, just choose another location a few inches higher on the rear of the car. When the sensors are too close to the ground, they pick up the ground surface and cause the monitor to beep or buzz as if there were something behind the vehicle. Most reverse parking sensors need to be placed about 18 to 24 inches above the gound in order to work properly. In this case, the sensors are probably installed too close to the ground. Many installation problems are related to the incorrect placement of the sensors.įor example, if you put the vehicle in reverse and the sensors cause the system to begin beeping continuously - even when there is no obstruction behind the vehicle, this is usually an indication that the sensors are positioned and installed incorrectly. No, most problems with reverse parking sensors are due to faulty or improper installation. Many problems with reverse parking sensors are not caused by defective parts or a malfunctioning system.
