Consumer Description

The 2023 Model X is not equipped with a real horn, only a button on the side of the wheel. Yesterday someone veered into my lane and I was unable to find the button in time almost causing a collision. It's idiotic that they were allowed to not include a physical horn. The 2024 model year fixed this but they offer no free retrofit.
