Monitor Your Tesla Model Y

America’s Best-Selling Vehicle. Often Driven by More Than One Person.

The Model Y became the world’s best-selling car because it fits family life: groceries, kids, road trips, commutes. But “family car” means multiple people behind the wheel. Your spouse. Your college kid home for break. Your newly licensed teenager who just passed their test.

Sentry Driver shows you how each of them drives.

Will Sentry Driver Work With My Model Y?

Yes, if your Model Y has firmware version 2024.26 or newer. Since the Model Y launched in 2020, most vehicles have received this update automatically.

To verify: tap Controls > Software on your touchscreen.

Setup takes about 5 minutes:

• Connect your Tesla account to Sentry Driver
• Complete virtual key pairing
• Enable Bluetooth on your phone for automatic owner detection

That’s it. No hardware to install. Nothing for other drivers to configure.

What You Can Monitor

All Model Y vehicles with compatible firmware get identical features:

• 5 alert types: Speeding, curfew violations, geofence exits, accident detection, driving behavior
• Automatic Bluetooth driver detection: Monitoring activates only when you’re not in the car
• Real-time location and speed tracking: Know where your Model Y is and how fast it’s moving
• Complete drive history: Every trip logged with distance, max speed, and hard brake counts
• Battery and charge monitoring: Check charge status without switching apps
• Full event log: Review what happened during any drive

The Shared Vehicle Problem

When one car serves multiple drivers, nobody feels fully accountable. Your teenager thinks “it’s the family car.” Your spouse assumes you’ll notice if something’s wrong. Meanwhile, nobody mentions the 95 mph run on the highway or the 1 AM Taco Bell trip.

Sentry Driver creates visibility without confrontation. You don’t have to ask “how was driving today?” You already know.

Alerts That Actually Matter

Configure exactly what concerns you:

Speed alerts: Set thresholds that match your comfort level. Highway driving at 75? Fine. School zone at 45? You’ll hear about it.

Curfew monitoring: Define hours when the car should stay parked. Violations trigger immediate notifications.

Geofence boundaries: Draw zones on a map. Get alerted when your Model Y leaves approved areas.

Accident detection: If something happens, you’ll know before anyone calls you.

Privacy That Makes Sense

Bluetooth detection means Sentry Driver knows when you’re driving. Your trips stay private. Monitoring only activates when someone else takes the wheel.

Your family members don’t need to install an app. They don’t need to remember to check in. They just drive. You just know.
