It’ll be fine. Cars have been getting hot inside since the dawn of the automobile. It’s the greenhouse effect. Stop checking the app. You keep waking the car and causing unnecessary battery drain. If you would’ve left it alone, it would have drained half as much, if not less.

If it dropped 25% in 3 months, you’ll be fine for an additional 2 weeks. I’m in Northern California. My car can get hot inside for no reason as well but it always cools down overnight. As long as you don’t have cabin overheat protection on, it will be fine.

Do nothing. Tesla's (like all cars), have all interior materials designed to handle sitting in the sun for months on end (in locations hotter than yours). Extremely common for new cars to spend months in uncovered storage area's before being delivered to customer's. (It is only really locations with significant hail risk that they bother having covers over the storage lots). Vent mode opens the windows a bit - It doesn't do much anyway & you want to be sure it is not raining before using this mode. non-AC mode isn't suitable for storing the car for week's. Tesla make it pretty clear that cabin overheat protection is for passenger comfort only. That it auto disables after 12 hours makes it clear it is not for long term use. \------------------------------------------------- # Cabin Overheat Protection Cabin Overheat Protection prevents the cabin from getting too hot in scorching ambient conditions. While not necessary to activate whenever you leave Model 3, the climate control system can reduce and maintain the temperature of your vehicle’s cabin. This can prevent the cabin from getting too hot after leaving it parked in the sun, making the vehicle more comfortable when you return. Cabin Overheat Protection may take up to 15 minutes to enable once you exit the vehicle. This feature is intended for passenger comfort and has no impact on the reliability of your vehicle's components. To turn on, touch **Controls** **>** **Safety** **>** **Cabin Overheat Protection** and choose: * **On**: The air conditioning operates when the cabin temperature exceeds 40° C, or the selected temperature if available, on the touchscreen or mobile app. Customizing temperatures may require the most recent version of the mobile app. * **No A/C**: Only the fan operates to prevent touch surfaces from getting too hot. * **Off:** Disables Cabin Overheat Protection. When you enable **Exclude Home**, Model 3 turns off Cabin Overheat Protection while the vehicle is at the location set as Home in your Favorites list (see [Home, Work, and Favorite Destinations](https://www.tesla.com/ownersmanual/model3/en_jp/GUID-01F1A582-99D1-4933-B5FB-B2F0203FFE6F.html#CONCEPT_ECY_KFF_BCB)). You can also enable Cabin Overheat Protection remotely through the mobile app by touching **Climate**. Swipe up on the bottom menu and select a setting under **Cabin Overheat Protection** (see [Mobile App](https://www.tesla.com/ownersmanual/model3/en_jp/GUID-F6E2CD5E-F226-4167-AC48-BD021D1FFDAB.html)). Cabin Overheat Protection operates until 12 hours has elapsed once you exit Model 3, or until the Battery energy drops below the threshold set for Low Power Mode (see [Low Power Mode](https://www.tesla.com/ownersmanual/model3/en_jp/GUID-4AC32116-979A-4146-A935-F41F8551AFE6.html#LOW_POWER_MODE)), whichever comes first. Using Cabin Overheat Protection requires energy from the Battery, which may decrease range. Warning Due to automatic shut-off, extreme outside conditions, or other potential inability to maintain the selected temperature, the inside of the vehicle can become dangerously hot, even when Cabin Overheat Protection is enabled. If you experience temperatures exceeding the selected temperature repeatedly, contact Tesla service. Warning Never leave children or pets in the vehicle unattended. Due to automatic shut-off or extreme outside conditions, the inside of the vehicle can become dangerously hot, even when Cabin Overheat Protection is enabled.

Nope. It'll be fine. Don't bother checking the app -- you're just going to wake the computer, and it'll needlessly consume energy. The interior of the car can readily tolerate about 160F (sometimes higher). The soft-squishy bits that ride in the car, not so much. But the car itself handles it just fine.
