NHTSA Complaint #11342022 — 2016 TESLA MODEL X

THE MCU SCREEN ON MY TESLA WENT OUT AFTER RETURNING TO THE VEHICLE FROM IT BEING PARKED. SCREEN WOULD NOT TURN ON EVEN AFTER MULTIPLE REBOOTS. WAS ABLE TO DRIVE THE VEHICLE BUT LOST ALL CONTROLS THAT THE MCU SCREEN CONTROLS, LUCKILY IT WAS A COOLER DAY AND I DIDN'T NEED THE AC BUT HVAC IS INACCESSIBLE WHEN THIS GOES OUT AMONG OTHER SAFETY ITEMS. PRIOR TO THIS THERE WERE TIMES WHEN THE SCREEN WOULD BE OUT AND THEN COME ON AFTER A FEW MINUTES. THIS IS A KNOWN ISSUE WITH TESLA MODEL S/X VEHICLES BUILT BEFORE APRIL 2018. THEY SEEM TO ALWAYS FAIL OUTSIDE WARRANTY BUT THIS SHOULDN'T BE AN ISSUE AND CAN CAUSE HARM BECAUSE OF WHAT THE MCU CONTROLS.
