NHTSA Complaint #11388098 — 2016 TESLA MODEL S

THE 2016 TESLA MODEL S MCU HAD BEEN SLUGGISH AND OFTEN TIMES FREEZES. THIS IS POTENTIALLY A RISK FOR DRIVING AS I CANNOT ACCESS OR SEE ANYTHING ON THE SCREEN. LOTS OF TIMES THE FRONT SCREEN AND THE MCU SCREEN TURNS OFF. I CALLED TESLA AND THEY DELETED THE ENTIRE HISTORY CACHING, BUT THAT WORKED FOR A BIT, BUT THEN WAS SLOW AND SLUGGISH. THE MCU WILL GO OUT A WEEK LATER. OFTEN TIMES, I WOULD GET IN THE CAR AND THE CAR WILL NOT BOOT UP FOR A COUPLE MINUTES. TRYING TO CHANGE SETTINGS ON THE MCU WOULD BE AN SLOW PROCESS. SOMETIMES THERE WERE GLITCHES WHERE YOU CANNOT SEE ANYTHING ON THE SCREENS LIKE THE SPEEDOMETER WHICH MAKES DRIVING DANGEROUS. MY CAR WAS UNDER WARRANTY AND I PURCHASED THE EXTENDED WARRANTY AND THEY WOULDN'T CHANGE THE MCU. I ENDED UP PAYING $2700 OUT OF POCKET TO REPLACE THE ENTIRE MCU. THIS SHOULDN'T HAVE HAPPEN ON LESS THAN A 4 YEAR OLD CAR WHEN I DID THIS. EVEN WITH TESLA EXTENDED WARRANTY, THE MCU WAS NOT COVERED.
