As a Tesla owner, the constant struggle with service updates and issues can be frustrating. In this blog story, we follow the journey of a Tesla Model S owner as they navigate through yet another service update. The car is plagued with various problems, from a dead MCU to malfunctioning turn signals and HVAC system.
Despite the ongoing issues, the owner remains hopeful as they schedule a service appointment in Van Nuys to address the issues. However, things take a turn for the worse when they realize that the MCU upgrade kit for Hardware 1 autopilot cars is not available yet, and there is a shortage of MCU ones at the service center.
With no loaner available, the owner is left to rely on their trusty Model 3 for transportation. But even that car gets pulled into the mix when the service advisors offer to swap it with the Model S to install the autopilot Hardware 3 upgrade and address a known issue with the battery case vent switch.
After a successful service appointment, the owner finally gets their Model S back with the new MCU functioning properly. Despite a few minor issues, they are grateful for the helpful service advisors who went above and beyond to assist them.
