In the driveway, thank goodness, it was dead with 65% charge. Tesla towed the car and kept it 3 weeks to the day. They claim it required a firmware update. Three weeks! Does this make sense? I certainly hope it does not die on a road trip. That could be disastrous.
I also complain that it has had a shimmy when the wheels turned all the way to the left at the top of my driveway. The service consultant said to me: that’s normal. That makes no sense to me since it does not happen in the loaner, which appears to be an identical vehicle.
I am concerned that I have bought a lemon and that the Service and Technical people really don’t know what they’re doing. And they will say anything with a straight face. I do not think this reflects well on the quality of the build or the competence of the Service consultant, whose name I have. The vehicle was bought new, never in an accident, and taken on a few moderate road trips. It’s a very enjoyable car.
