2013 TESLA MODEL S Complaints

THE MCU HAS NOW NEARLY COMPLETELY FAILED RESULTING IN THE INABILITY TO USE THE BACKUP CAMERA (OR THE TOUCHSCREEN ENTIRELY THAT CONTROLS OTHER BASIC FUNCTIONS OF THE CAR. THIS HAS BEEN A PROGRESSIVE ISSUE. THIS APPEARS TO BE A KNOWN ISSUE. IT CAN HAPPEN WHILE STATIONERY OR MOVING AND OCCURS IN BOTH INSTANCES REQUIRING FREQUENT REBOOTS WHILE DRIVING UNTIL COMPLETE FAILURE.

2013 TESLA S P85 WITH MANUFACTURE QUALITY CONTROL PROBLEMS. MY CURRENT CONCERN IS THAT MY MEDIA CONTROL UNIT (MCU) TOUCH SCREEN IN MY MODEL S MANUFACTURE IN 2013 FAILURES OF THE TOUCH SCREEN WITH BUBBLES ON THE LCD TOUCH SCREEN AND SOMETIME JUST LINES ON THE LCD DISPLAY WHEN IT IS HOT UNDER THE SUN. THE CAR TAKES A LONG TIME TO START UP AFTER DRIVER GET INTO THE DRIVER SEAT- SOMETIMES IT CAN TAKE UP TO 3 MINUTES TO START UP THE CAR AND, LINES ON LCD DISPLAY, STICKY GLUE LEAKING DOWN UNDER THE DASH AREA FROM THE PASSENGER SIDE. THIS MCU AND LCD TOUCH SCREEN IS THE ONLY CONTROL THAT CAN BE USE AS AN INFORMATION SYSTEM FOR THIS VEHICLE. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUES WHILE DRIVING AND CAN BE VERY DISTRACTING AND CAN CAUSE AN ACCIDENT WHILE DRIVING. THIS IS A MANUFACTURES DEFECT AND IT SHOULD BE RECALL FOR REPLACEMENT OR REPAIR. IT IS A VERY SERIOUS SAFETY CONCERN.

TOUCHSCREEN WENT OUT. ACCORDING TO THEIR SYSTEM THIS IS STILL A 'DRIVEABLE' CAR AND NEEDS TO BE BROUGHT TO THEM. THE BLINKERS AND HEADLIGHTS ARE CONTROLLED THROUGH THIS AS ARE MANY OTHER FEATURES.

THE MCU CONTINUES TO FAIL AND WAS NOW THERE ARE YELLOW LINES AROUND MY SCREEN AND IT KEEPS REBOOTING. *TR

COMPUTER DISPLAY MALFUNCTIONING HAS TO BE TURNED OFF AND ON. THIS IS DANGEROUS WHILE DRIVING. I HAVE VIDEO OF SCREEN BUT CANNOT UPLOAD THAT TYPE OF FILE. *TR

MEDIA CONTROL UNIT APPEARS TO BE FAILING. THE SYSTEM IS SLOW TO BOOT, THE MEDIA FUNCTIONALITY IS OFF-LINE, THE VEHICLE DOES NOT RESPOND TO DRIVER INPUT WITH RESPECT TO INPUT ON THE MAIN TOUCHSCREEN. THE MCU CONTROLS SEVERAL CRITICAL VEHICLE FUNCTIONS. *TR

TOUCHSCREEN STOPPED WORKING MULTIPLE TIMES OVER SEVERAL WEEKS, WHEN STARTING CAR OR WHEN DRIVING, AND HAD TO BE REBOOTED. THEN NAVIGATION FUNCTION STOPPED WORKING COMPLETELY. I HAVE SEEN REPORTS FROM OTHER OWNERS INDICATING THAT THE SCREENS FLASH MEMORY DEVICES HAVE FAILED OVER TIME. *TR

A KNOWN MCU FAILURE, DUE TO A MANUFACTURING ERROR ON THE PART OF THE CAR COMPANY, REQUIRES MULTIPLE REPLACEMENTS OF THE MAIN ELECTRICAL CONTROL. THE FAILURE OF THIS PART RENDERS THE CAR INOPERABLE. *TR

VEHICLE MCU DOES NOT HAVE ENOUGH STORAGE CAPABILITY THIS CAUSING IT TO FAIL AND NEED REPLACEMENT MULTIPLE TIMES THROUGH THE LIFE OF THE VEHICLE. THIS IS A KNOWN DEFECT IN THE VEHICLE AND FAILS AT RANDOM TIMES MAKING THE VEHICLE INOPERABLE.
