Consumer Description
On October 25, 2023, between 10:40 pm and 10:50 pm, while driving the car on the 105 (Century Freeway), the computer system suddenly went completely black. The car did continue to travel and never did stop. I did not make any lane changes. I am unable to say if the the head lights continued to function. The computer did reboot after about a minute or so. The car is brand new. I've only had it since September 16, 2023. I am reporting it here in case it is a concern. I've read that the computer could only have been rebooting from an update that I had installed earlier. Don't know for sure, but it was quite a hair raising one and a half minute. Additionally, there are times when the car's adaptive cruise control does not recognize red light intersections. It would accelerate instead of slowing down to stop. During those times, I would need to slam on the brake to make it stop. I have not relayed any of this information to Tesla but I intend to very shortly.
