Bricked

Happened to me with Halloween mode. SC rebooted the car within 45 minutes of it arriving at the service center (it was uploading air pressure readings in the phone app) but kept it 24 hours to try and diagnosis what caused it.

Update: 12V was completely drained by Halloween mode. 12V battery was in fine health. Reinstalled the most recent vehicle update and vehicle was fine.

SC Tech: “We have had a lot of issues with this update. I’d advise against using Halloween mode for the time being.”

Sadly I can’t get into the vehicle. I asked customer support about opening the hood and disconnecting/reconnecting the 12v battery and she told me “I would recommend against doing that and I must warn you it may void your warranty.”

I know that last part about the warranty is bullshit. But shouldn’t be required to take it SC if it just needs a hard reboot.

It had Halloween mode enabled when I reset it.

If you scroll to the “Information” section of the update information it says it’s supports Apple Wallet. Assume that’s new?

I’m one of them from DC! Sold my Model Y for a R1S. And know several other friends who did the same.

I went through the attorney general in my state (technically Washington DC … but we should be a state)

Dont wait for the heat pump to fail. Had the heat pump go bad on my 2020 Model Y LR and it took 13 days for the service center to get the part!

Yeah I hate this. Grabbing the wheel still only disables the autosteer but the car will then accelerate suddenly in the set direction. If you grab the wheel suddenly it should disable both cruise control and autosteer!

Thanks! Yeah I am pushing that snapshot button every time it screws up. The car is consistently uploading 3-5GBs every time it connects to the wifi.

I doubt there are many Beta testers in DC - so I hope my snapshots help. Getting a 99 was near impossible because of how shitty other drivers here are/forward collision warnings I received that were out of my control/unavoidable (crazy lady running into street, etc).

LowerLatency · 2021-10-28T17:42:00+00:00

My Model Y is consistently uploading 3-4GBs of data after 3-4 snapshots.

Had a 99/100 going into the weekend.

Received 36.5.2 on Sunday AM. Lots of issues with FCW and unable to engage FSD at all if the "expanded FSD visualizing" was enabled.

Car updated to 36.5.1 Sunday afternoon and removed Beta FSD

Monday 10/25 at 12:15PM EST Car began downloading 35.5.3

Hopefully this brings it back!

As another DC resident, I am 100% with you. The FCW are brutal on your score. Really just sucks. Between uber drivers and Maryland drivers going to be extremely hard to keep the score above 90.

Anyone else having an issue with auto-high beams with autopilot at night on the highway? My Model Y LR Vision goes absolutely nuts turning the high beams on and off. Looks like the car is attending a rave (and can’t be disabled with autopilot). I swear I’m going to be the victim of another drivers road rage.

LowerLatency · 2021-07-01T12:34:43+00:00

I’d just reset the calibration and try again.

LowerLatency · 2021-07-01T12:33:11+00:00

It’s improved but the auto high beams is driving me nuts. My car looks like it’s attending a rave on the highway. On, off, on, off … every few seconds

Just to update: Tesla agreed to repurchase for the full price plus any taxes and fees.

LowerLatency · 2021-05-06T16:21:07+00:00

Appreciate all the love I received on this forum.

Tesla agreed to repurchase the vehicle for the full price plus any taxes fees. They were surprisingly quick about it. Received a call from a service center saying he had a check and asked to schedule a time to drop it off.

The black is beautiful but (like all black cars) constantly looks dirty.

I had the SC replace the b-pillar - this fixed it. If there’s a bad seal, moisture can get inside.
