When coming to a complete stop with just about any car, there is a small jerk/rocking/bounce motion at the last moment of complete stop.

Given Tesla's software control of motor and brake behavior, it would be great if the dynamics of the last fraction of a second for a stop were controlled so that a stop happens without any last second rocking.

I achieve this manually by releasing the brake a tiny bit just before a complete stop. This creates a softer stop without a braking bounce.

What I can do easily manually, Tesla's software could do even better.

This would add to the advanced feel of driving a Tesla.

For safety, softened stops could be skipped for when the user requests a ASAP stop

Confusing/unsafe behavior now:

• Leave fob in Model X (on purpose, or by mistake)
• Lock with app
• Model X shown locked...
• but unlocks for any handle press by anyone

Two problems with this:

1. Confusion about lock behavior: I believed the app when it showed my Model X was locked and thought for months that I could lock my fob in the car and get back in with just my phone. Little did I know it would unlock for anyone.

2. Mistakenly unlocked: Someone might leave their fob in the car by mistake, and believe their car was locked based on the app when it is functionally not locked.

Feature request and fix:

When the car is locked by app, the app notifies if fob is still proximate and EIT

Post here every idea that might improve the Tesla ownership experience, both hardware modifications and software features!

On the MX and MS, the dash display shows when the headlights are on, however, the tail light and brake light visualizations are either not shown or barely visible. It would be helpful to know when your brake light turn on when only regenerative deceleration (but not braking) so that you can see if the decelerations appear like 'brake-checking' to the vehicles behind you.

If outside temperature is higher than x C° stop seat warmer, despite it has been turned on before.
