In this video I break down the core security settings I recommend every Tesla owner turn on to keep the car (and your stuff inside it) safe. I start with the big two: Sentry Mode and the Dashcam. I show you how I think about using them day-to-day, why they’re worth setting up correctly, and how they fit into a simple “set it and forget it” security routine. From there I go through the features that stop the most common headaches: PIN to Drive (huge), Cabin Camera considerations, Speed Controls, Valet Mode, and making sure Walk-Away Door Lock is actually enabled. I also cover the Glovebox PIN for protecting valuables, and I wrap up with data sharing settings plus why staying on top of the latest software updates matters for security. If you want a clean checklist of what to toggle on in your Model 3 or Model Y, this is my full 10-step setup.
