Deductions & credits
I'm using the online version of the software, and see that the Energy-Efficient Vehicle section is available, HOWEVER after entering my details about my Tesla Model 3 that I purchased 3/19/2019, it's calculating the credit at $7,500 - but that is incorrect because according to the IRS website, the phase-out period began. $7,500 only applies to vehicles purchased by Tesla before 12/31/2018, for vehicles purchased between 1/1/2019 through 6/30/2019 the credit should be $3,750. (See here: https://www.irs.gov/businesses/irc-30d-new-qualified-plug-in-electric-drive-motor-vehicle-credit under the Tesla, Inc - Phase Out initiated dropdown).
I think TurboTax should be calculating this better, otherwise some people might get more than they should, and get in some amount of trouble if they get audited.
