Tesla Model S Change Vehicle

"The temporary solution was to reboot computer. The software updated slowly made the display screen crashes go completely away."

"Please see previous comment."

"It just goes blank and none of the features are accessible."

"I am driving along and it goes blank. I have to reset the computer"

"Driving along and entire display s here and dashboard goes black. Cannot monitor speed or anything else but car continues to operate. Was told it needed a software fix, I received it and have not had the problem since"

"Took it to dealer and they insytalled new firmware"

"The Bluetooth interface is pretty poorly designed & unstable."

"Problem occurred 2 months following vehicle delivery. Vehicle was not connecting to LTE service. Tesla service professional found vehicle's modem was not communicating properly. Reset of vehicle modem restored normal operation of the LTE connection. Problem has not recurred."

"Some times it just freezes up"

"I initially couldn't connect to my home WiFi, reset the car's computer system, or connect a second iPhone. In addition, I am getting prompted to connect to every WiFi I park near. Tesla service has corrected each of these problems except the WiFi prompting problem via software updates. I lost the ability to connect to my primary iPhone about a month later. Tesla service had me delete both primary and secondary iPhones, reset the system, and repair both iPhones to correct this problem. I didn't experience any of these problems with my 2016 Tesla Model S over the 1.5 years I owned it."

"The car has trouble downloading routine software updates. Have had to have the dealer install the updates."

"Well this is tied into the same backup camera issue. Software updates that were supposed to correct the problem never worked. That's the only issue I've had with updates."

"Car occasionally requires several seconds to start up. The system seems to be resetting itself. Normally starts up instantly."

"In October 2018 I updated to version 9.0 of operating system. Ever since then the backup camera goes blank after a few times driving. This requires a screen reset which is time consuming. Tesla has tried for months to repair and finally advised last week that it's a known firmware problem that engineering is working on."

"One of their remote software updates scrambled the cars control system, so you had to figure out where features had gone like the phone, songs, etc. which created a driving hazard. It was like going into you favorite grocery store after they just scrambled the location of everything then trying to find what you needed. Randomly features stop working or malfunction like long delays powering up to start the car, the software system randomly reboots itself while driving the car, etc. which are really software bugs. The only way to fix the problems is to press both buttons on the steering where to force the software to reset (like a ctr+alt+delete) in windows. The operating system for this car is frustrating like windows and appears designed by novices with no human engineering skills. Tesla randomly and remotely updates the entire operating system for the car without telling you in advance what they are updating. Based on bugs/changes occurring from their past updates, I'm afraid of what they will mess up next. Bugs that were fixed in past updates pop up again. When I bought the car in 2018, the car would simply not play MP3s from a USB even though the technology was 20 years old. The gave me another Model S loaner car to fix this problem that oddly played MP3s properly. When I got my car back it would still not play MP3's because my computer system was different that the loaner car and they were still working on the MP3 problem with my new computer What this means to me is that Tesla is dealing with different hardware in the same Tesla models and there is no compatibility between the software between models which must create a maintenance nightmare"

"rattle in front end suspension that they haven't be able to fix."

"Window trims did not line up properly and there was wind noise from the driver side B pillar."

"The windshield was not set flush to the glass roof and caused turbulence leading to loud cabin noise, which the serviceman told me was actually a common problem. The windshield was reset, but the baseline wind noise level is still significantly louder than one would expect from a luxury car at that price point."

"Wind noise from driver side window corrected with one service trip."

"Keyless entry is somewhat erratic. Sometimes requires waving the key fob and/or touching the door handle. Often the charge port will not open until I move to the front of the car."

"One of the two key fobs that came with the car just completely stopped working and was replaced by Tesla."
