2016 Tesla Model S: engine stalls while driving

Filed Oct 7, 2021 · Suspension · UT

While backing out of a parking stall I felt a large vibration. I could tell something wasn't right. I pulled out of the parking lot and checked my tires and brakes as every time I pressed the brake pedal I felt the vibration. I couldn't tell what was going on, but the car was not driving correctly. I slowly drove to a nearby tire center when they diagnosed it as a broken control arm on the driver's side. No collisions took place before or after, nor was a pot hole or other road hazard hit before.

My Tesla regularly has the instrument panel and center display go completely black and turn off while driving. This includes not being able to adjust climate control, access rear view backup camera, use lane indicators and determine speed or status of autopilot and driving safety features. I have noted this to Tesla Service Center on 3 occasions and they refuse to provide thr necessary repair under the applicable recall notice 21V‑035.

Center screen shut off while driving due to a 'mcu' failure (diagnosed by tesla service). I lost ability to control taillights, rearview camera, high beams, climate control, charging information, navigation, passenger airbag indicator. I was driving on a multi lane highway when it failed. Drivetrain, brakes and steering seem unaffected. At tesla service they tried to diagnose, and one of the resets disabled turn signals, which is a legal issue in addition to safety. The screen had rebooted several times on its own in the preceding weeks.

The ?stalling? Problem happened to my model s since I started to drive the new car in 03/16. I got kicked from ?d?/?r? To ?p? At beginning stage when I start to press the accelerator, around 50% of the time when I started or changed my sitting position. The problem would stop after I adjust my sitting position/posture several times. I reported to tesla roadside service several times in 04/16. There was no solution on-line, I have never got any follow up from tesla as promised. I took my car to sales agent [xxx] in bethesda, md. He could not solve my problem, suggested to go to service shop in rockville, md. The stalling problem becomes a hazardous issue when it happened on the road, especially in slopped busy intersections. On 05/13/16, I took my car to service shop in rockville md. The engineers check out system & records. They verified stalling happened in that morning, & claim there was nothing wrong with car/system. The problem was ?nobody was sitting on the driving seat? When stalling happened. They want me to keep records. It was stupid ignorance & irresponsibility. On 06/11/16, I sent complaint to servicehelpna [email protected] I got response the next day, kick me back to where I came from: [xxx], ?. I am sorry you have had this experience with your vehicle. The best person to address this, get it resolved, and escalate the issue if necessary, would be the local service manager. I have reached out to them and asked them to look into this issue on your behalf and have their team follow up with you. ? Ivanחנ bergman | technical support specialist it is 06/17/16. I have received nothing from tesla. The stalling problem persists. Instead of keeping being kicked around by tesla, I bring my complaint to the federal safety agency [xxx] information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u.s.c. 552(b)(6).
