Consumer Description

I'm writing following several months of an "Unresponsive Screen" issue in my car. I initially thought this was a symptom of cold weather but learned it was related to "corrupt files" after a visit to the local Tesla service center. A full detailed description of the issue video of the issue can be found in the description portion of this link: [XXX] . I was told the issue was resolved following a three-day visit to the service center from [XXX]. Unfortunately, I've continued to encounter the problem. There are obviously many concerns regarding safety and the inability to utilize all of the car's functions (e.g. headlights, child safety features, indoor lighting, etc.). Perhaps the greatest concern is the fact that I have to do a soft reset in order to restore functionality and the soft function can be performed while the vehicle is operating. The following video is a demonstration: [XXX] I was reassured there is nothing wrong with my hardware and that everything seems to be related to the "corrupt files" in the vehicle's software. Thanks in advance. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)
