Larger Automatic Hold Indicator
45
Description
Provide a larger automatic hold “H” indicator.
Competitive/Pricing/Notes
The “H” indicating automatic hold is small and sometimes behind the steering wheel. I realize there are other clues, such as the brake light simulation, but it would be even better to have a large, quite large, red “H” just to the right of the car image.
Brake Hold is a very nice feature that should be explained to new owners at delivery time. This explanation would have saved us one expensive roll-back at a slanted Starbucks, when motor creep did not hold the car like our previous (gas) car.

Yes, in its present location the "H" can be difficult to see!
The other day I found that the "Brake Hold" feature does not stay on forever at least on my 2015 Model S. It was an extended wait an a level intersection and after some amount of time my vehicle started creeping forward without any warning. It was a good thing I was paying attention because there was no audio beep and as you all know Tesla's are quiet and roll really silently so again I was lucky I was paying attention. I just wanted to pass this on in case this feature is actually designed to work like this.
