Consumer Description
It has been hard for me to signal right and left in a timely manner due to the fact that the turn signal stall has been replaced with two buttons on the left side of the steering wheel. To make this new design even more complicated to learn, when the steering wheel is turned 180 degree (ie when parking or exiting a parking space) the right/left signal buttons are on the opposite side of the wheel and in reverse positions. Second, the only way that I know of to honk the horn, is to press a small button on the right side of the steering wheel. My wife and I have never been able to honk the horn in a timely fashion because this is not how anyone has ever learned to operate the horn on a car, which is supposed to be a bump on the center of the steering wheel. Tesla should be required to replace these controls with standard controls that do t require a new training program and hours of drills to make them instinctive.
