That does not seem right. 275 is around 75% for me. The few times I fully charged my car, I get between 307-309. Almost like you're getting a standard range vs long range.
I'd run that one up to management. No way you should be seeing a 100% charger that low. 1st thing I would try though would be "balancing the pack". I'm no expert but run it down to a low state of charge, less than 10% and fully charge it in one session. From Model S/X boards this is supposed to reset the algorithm and do some black magic deep in the bowles of the beast.
I know the battery is beneath the vehicle, and not as simple as simply removing some bolts and connectors ....
but I wonder if it requires removing other body components, cooling Lines, sensors and etc?
Instead of starting a new thread, I thought I'd hop on here-
My full range is at 298 miles. This is when I programmed my charging to 100% capacity. From the beginning I set my % at 15 and 87. An 87% charge when I first got the car = 265 miles. Two days ago an 87% charge = 259 miles. I had yet to charge fully, so I did last night and only got to 298 miles with the car reading 100%. Is this something I should be concerned about?
Additionally, my charge port cover is going bonkers at times closing and opening and closing and opening.....I noticed that it is not closing flush with the tail lights or side of the car. I checked and nothing was in the way of it closing properly. Any thoughts?

I wouldn't worry about that, it's normal to lose a little range initially. Some of it might even come back if you run it down to 5-10% and then re-charge. It's constantly trying to calibrate itself and that can be hard to do if the battery always stays in the upper end of its range.

Day 14 - Still no car. Text from this morning, "...we are resuming the service for you HV battery. We will continue to update you along the way. Thank you"

For the Model S they had a battery replacement program intended to be used as a refueling option on road trips. They (Tesla) said the process took 90 seconds but I have never seen any firsthand accounts so I don't know what it was like in the real world. They have since discontinued that program though so I don't know if the Model X or Model 3 have the potential for fast battery swaps like that.
However, I can see a battery replacement taking 2 weeks even if the battery swap itself only takes 2-30min if they have to wait on the part (battery). Production + shipping are not likely to be fast given their current bottlenecks which also mean they aren't likely to have any lying around.
Car fixed, but the car has minor paint damage, that happened while in their possession, that they need to repair.
Since the battery is repaired after 16 days, I will stop updating this thread.
