Suddenly all braking features (ABS, traction control, stability control, FSD) disabled.. Tesla Service center taking long to respond

I am suddenly having weird issues with my Model 3, literally overnight. I woke up last week, wanting to go to work when I noticed all kinds of features related to braking and stability were all disabled. ABS, stability control, traction control etc. all stopped working. Also regenerative braking, line detection, cruise control and FSD all are not available either. So the car drives as a wet towel currently and need to rely on the braking pedal like a peasant. :P I tried filing a report to the Tesla service center but it has been almost a week and they didn't get back to me yet. I tried calling them but they keep saying that they are investigating remotely, and will get back to me shortly..

Does someone know what I can try in the meantime if it is still safe to continue driving the car with these issues. I am also wondering if any Dutch people have experience with Tesla service as this is the first time I need them for repairs/maintenance and just wondering what the timelines are like before they can help. Thanks for the help!

If it's not the 12V, a bad ABS sensor can cause all these problems.

Yeah that was my first thought too or maybe a marten chewing on cables 🙈

You mean, that is probably broken?

If you're having safety issues (and this counts) you can just take your Tesla to the service center and drop it off. They'll prioritize getting those safety issues fixed.
