2019 TESLA MODEL X Electrical System Problems

After charging, the car threw over 16 error codes and would not drive. Tesla advised the car experienced a High Voltage battery failure. Some the error codes experienced were: GTW_w370 Battery charge level too low Charge now - Vehicle may not wake from sleep BMS_w017 Service is required PULL OVER SAFELY DI_u014 Unable to drive Voltage supply too low MORGANVILLE GTW_W157 Power reduced Vehicle systems shutting down BMS_f017 Service is required PULL OVER SAFELY TAS_a218 Air suspension adjustment unavailable Functionality may be restored on next drive BMS_u018 Maximum battery charge level reduced OK to drive - Schedule service BMS_u008 Acceleration and top speed reduced Performance may be restored on next drive BMS_W107 Vehicle may not restart Service is required BMS_f107

I plugged in a tester into the 7 pin trailer harness that is factory installed and the harness does not work. Specifically, there is no 12V power coming from the harness. I googled the issue and it is very common on 2018 and 2019 Tesla Model X’s, and people say when they went to the dealer they said that the factory wired it incorrectly but that it was a simple fix. I went to my dealer and they wanted to charge me money to fix this issue that has been present but unnoticeable on my vehicle until recently. Not having 12V power to the harness is vary dangerous because if towing a trailer with electric brakes, they will not work, and there is no way to tell this except for using a tester at the harness.

While using Actually Smart Summon to get my Tesla model X out of a parking spot it turned into the car next to mine and proceeded to try exit the space while scraping the doors of the Tesla and bumper of the BMW M5 next to me. Even though I was watching the car I couldn’t stop the crash from happening in time. There was a near miss with another person getting into the car adjacent to the vehicle my car collided with which could have caused serious injury. I also have video of the whole event but can’t upload more than 10MB files, please reach out if you want the video.

Tesla display and navigation dashboard went dark 3 times while driving on the highway. For 4 minutes I could not see what speed I was going at, I could not give any indication. The risk was that the car could have stopped while in the lane and crashed or caused an accident. This has happened twice before

On Jan 1st, approx 6 PM (completely dark), I was driving my 2019 MX (41K miles) traveling at 60-65MPH on I5. All of a sudden, I noticed a series of dashboard warnings popped up with warning sounds -> "Acceleration/top speed reduced", "Performance Reduced", "Service Require", and "Vehicle system shutting down". I had to pull over to the left shoulder due to limited control of my MX and I was only able to coast without any control of my power padel.. It was a scary moment hearing the beeping warning sound and the cars flying by in the express lane. feeling the MX shaken every time when car passes by. I tried to call Tesla roadside assistance and waited for >40 min without anyone picking up the call. Decided to call the highway patrol and we were EXTREMELY LUCKY when the patrol car pulled up to protect us with its flashing...

February 2022: On Feb 23 and 27, 2022, the vehicle would not start when parked. It was taken to the Tesla service center on March 1, 2022. As shown in the service notes from (Exhibit 2), the service center " found micro SD card issues causing center display communication issues and loss of support for low voltage battery, tech replaced micro SD card, installed firmware and replaced 12 V battery". We took Tesla diagnosis and repair at face value, and our family drove the car for approx. 8000 miles additional miles before the second failure occurred. August 2022: While driving with my wife at 65 miles per hour around 1:45 pm on August 7, 2022, on a very busy Hwy 91 East in the Los Angeles area, the vehicle lost power unannounced, and in less than 2 minutes of the first warning lamp coming on. With the help of very...

My rear passenger doors were unable to open. The falcon wing doors could not be opened leaving my child trapped inside. The child locks were on but I could not open the doors from inside or outside the vehicle even if I tried overriding the system. I attempted a vehicle restart and that did not resolve the issue. Finally I turned off the child locks and reached inside the vehicle from the driver door and held the open button on the rear door. The door still would not open up but did pop open a couple inches. I had to physically lift the door up against the resistance of the electric motors to get my child out. I did open a service request with Tesla but I do not feel safe driving this vehicle if the doors are ever unable to be opened.

While driving with my wife at 65 miles per hour around 1:4 pm on a very busy Hwy 91 East in the Los Angeles area on August 7, 2022, the vehicle lost power unannounced in less than 5 minutes of the first warning lamp coming on. With the help of very limited residual power that was left in the car, I was able to navigate the vehicle to the triangle between 2 merging freeways. We can only surmise that since I turned on the hazard lights immediately after the first warning lamp was on and there was sufficient distance between the vehicles behind us, there was no accident that could have resulted in bodily injury or death. The vehicle was towed to the closest Tesla service center in Buena Park, CA. Tesla technicians "suspect a sporadic voltage/current spike from rear drive unit, but unable to confirm after a 40 mile...

My car at a complete stop at a red light and sudden the car accelerated so fast forward ( unintentioned accelerated ) and rear ended the car in front. Need to take a look into car electrical and software issue

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 -...

HISTORICALLY (MAY 2019 - DEC. 2020), THE SCREENS (SHOWING SPEED, AUTOPILOT STATUS, AND OTHER INFORMATION) WOULD SOMETIMES GO BLANK. I REPORTED THE PROBLEM IN MY 1ST WEEK OF OWNERSHIP (IN MAY 2019) AND PERIODICALLY THEREAFTER. TESLA REMOTELY SENT A FIX FROM TIME TO TIME, BUT THE PROBLEM PERSISTED. I THEN LEARNED FROM THE MEDIA (NOT TESLA OR THE NHTSA) THAT NHTSA HAD MANDATED A FIX ON 2016-2018 MODEL X'S BECAUSE OF SCREEN FAILURES. I ASKED TESLA TO FIX MY 2019 (NOTING THAT IT APPEARED TO BE THE SAME PROBLEM AS WHAT HAD REQ'D. THE NHTSA MANDATE, AND TESLA DID FIX IT (OR SAID THEY DID) A FEW MONTHS AGO. BUT ON APRIL 13, 2021, THE PROBLEM CAME BACK AND FAR WORSE. ON THAT DAY AND WHILE DRIVING MY SON TO UPSTATE NY BY HIGHWAY, THE SCREEN DID NOT SIMPLY GO BLANK (AT LEAST NOT INITIALLY ... IT DID EVENTUALLY) BUT...

THE DRIVER SIDE WINDOW DOESN'T ROLL ALL THE WAY UP WHEN TRYING TO CLOSE IT AUTOMATICALLY WITH ONE BUTTON PUSH. IT GOES PARTIALLY UP THE SIDE AND THEN WILL AUTOMATICALLY ROLL DOWN.

THIS IS A 2019 TESLA MODEL X WITH REAR "WING DOORS". LEFT CAR IN A PARKING GARAGE. ATTENDANT PARKED THE CAR, LEFT FOB IN THE CAR, WALKED AWAY AND LEFT REAR "WING DOOR" MYSTERIOUSLY OPENED ON ITS OWN. I SAW THIS HAPPEN ON GARAGE SECURITY VIDEO SYSTEM. A COUPLE OF MONTHS AGO I WALKED IN MY HOME GARAGE AND THE RIGHT REAR "WING DOOR" WAS IN THE UP POSITION. NOTHING HAD BEEN TOUCHED. NOTHING ACTIVATED. CAR WAS IN SLEEP MODE.

WHILE I WAS PARKING SUDDEN UNINTENDED ACCELERATION OCCURRED VEHICLE JUMPED THE CURB AND THE VEHICLE SMASHED THE BUILDING WENT THRU THE WALL. THERE WERE TWICE PRIOR INCEDENTS WITH NO ACCIDENT BUT FREAKING OUT WHITHIN LAST 4 WEEKS.THE VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION IN CITY STREET ALL THREE INSTANCES. ALL THREE INCIDENTS I WAS TURNING THE CORNER OR PARKING WITH LESS THAN 5 MILES PER HOUR.

TWO MAJOR ISSUES. ON JUNE 23, AFTER A SOFTWARE UPDATE, I LEFT TO RUN SOME ERRANDS. I GOT A MESSAGE THAT THE UPDATE DIDN'T INSTALL PROPERLY, BUT GIVEN THAT THE FUNCTIONS OF THE UPDATE DIDN'T SEEM CRITICAL, I DECIDED TO WAIT TO TRY AND REINSTALL. I WAS AT A STOP LIGHT IN THE CENTER LANE ON WISCONSIN AVENUE IN DC (A VERY BUSY STREET), WHEN I WENT TO GO AS THE LIGHT TURNED GREEN, MY ENTIRE SCREEN WENT BLACK AND I COULD NOT START THE CAR. MY HAZARD LIGHTS WOULDN'T EVEN GO ON. THANKFULLY, I COULD ROLL DOWN MY WINDOW AND WAVE CARS TO GO BY. I THANK GOD THAT MY CHILDREN WEREN'T WITH ME, AS I COULD HAVE EASILY BEEN IN A CATASTROPHIC ACCIDENT IN A VERY BUSY INTERSECTION. AFTER A COUPLE OF MINUTES OF GREAT DISTRESS, THE CAR STARTED AGAIN, BUT MY NAVIGATION, AUTO DRIVE, ETC. WERE NOT...
