Consumer Description
The MCU (Media Control Unit) and the driver's dash goes out while driving under normal driving conditions. When the MCU and Dash goes dark/dies, the turn signals don't work, the rear view camera goes out, the blind spot warning and lane departure warning is disabled and the speedometer doesn't display. Basically I was driving in the dark. It was a very dangerous situation. Fortunately I was driving and not my wife who is the primary driver. This is no longer a technical safety concern but rather a safety issue for us and for others. I brought it in for service 2 times and the outcome was: we're aware of the bug and working on an over the air fix but no ETA. This is not an isolated issue since it occurred many times captured below: Jun 22 - 8:33 PM PST Jun 30 - 8:32 AM PST Jul 2 - 12:32 PM PST Jul 8 - 5:58 PM PST Jul 13 - 8:09 AM PST Jul 16 - 6:46 PM PST This is similar to the situation that occurred in the collapse of the condo in Florida. In that case: 1. They were aware of the issue 2. They knew they had to fix it 3. But they didn't take responsibility nor accountability. They should have evacuated the building instead of killing 100+ innocent lives. In our case: 1. Tesla knows there's an issue 2. Tesla knows it needs to be fix 3. Tesla refuses to take immediate action until something drastic occurs.The car is practically brand new with only 5K miles on it. I have videos to capture this frightening ordeal.
