Defect Description:
POWER TRAIN
Potential Consequences:
On Sunday, October 10th. I arrived at a friends home in Charleston S.C. with about 35 Miles left on the Odometer. In the AM I awoke to find only 5 miles left. As I knew that I was 21 miles away from a Tesla Supercharger I called for a tow truck, and paid $265 to get taken to the charge site. I hooked up and the car began to charge. When I was close to capacity I disconnected - and the charge dropped to zero. I called Tesla. They sent a tow truck and took me to Savannah Ga. Tesla (80 miles south....no charge). 7 weeks later - on Dec 1st...I got my Tesla back from Savannah Ga. Tesla. Immediately I got a warning "Power reduced - service required". I called and arranged for service (set up for Dec 14...two weeks away). This morning I got a similar message; 'Coolant for battery low - Service required" (see image, below)

FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE: ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL
Potential Consequences:
I have been complaining since I got this Tesla in late 2017, that the car brakes unexpectedly on the Freeway. Tesla claim that nothing is wrong & this will happened if the sensor received a signal like light from another car, but I was driving on the Freeway during daytime? On 10/31/21 while driving autodrive on the freeway the car suddenly skid to the right twice, around 6.50 PM & 9.05 PM. My Grandson was in the car with me and witness the incident. Luckily I was able to straighten the car without any accident. Tesla made an appointment for a mobile visit on 11/5/21, but cancelled on 11/4/21 and reschedule one month later on 12/9/21 to a Service Ctr in Walnut. This is a Safety issue and Tesla is not seriously taking care of.

SUSPENSION
Potential Consequences:
There is loud clanking noise from the front of the car. Tesla service center said they must replace front sway bar and links. That was in December 2020. They still do not have those parts. Driving with damaged sway bars requires being super alert when changing lanes or turning. However, one cannot guarantee it 100% of the time. Tesla says that this is a minor noise issue. I would like them to fix the issue soon (not have to wait 6+ months).

Defect Description:
UNKNOWN OR OTHER
Potential Consequences:
ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS BOTH OF MY DASHBOARD SCREENS (DRIVER CLUSTER AND CENTER CONSOLE) WENT BLANK WHILE DRIVING AT A VARIETY OF SPEEDS. I WAS UNABLE TO SEE MY SPEEDOMETER, BACK-UP CAMERA, CONTROL HVAC, OR ANY AUDIO. I ALSO WAS UNABLE TO USE COLLISION ASSISTANCE, BLIND SPOT DETECTION, AUTOPILOT, OR, PRESUMABLY, EMERGENCY BRAKING. TO REGAIN CONTROL I HAD TO REBOOT THE VEHICLE WHILE DRIVING, WHICH WAS HAZARDOUS TO SAY THE LEAST. THERE DOES NOT APPEAR TO BE ANY SPECIFIC TRIGGER TO THIS OUTAGE OTHER THAN THE VEHICLE WAS IN GEAR AND MOVING FORWARD. IT HAPPENED DURING THE DAY AND AT NIGHT. I REPORTED THIS TO TESLA USING THEIR "REPORT BUG" FEATURE IN THE VEHICLE, BUT I NEVER HEARD ANYTHING BACK. THIS HAS OCCURRED AT LEAST 6 OR 7 TIMES OVER THE LAST YEAR. THE MOST RECENT INCIDENT OCCURRED LAST WEEK, 15-16 MARCH.
