    Tesla Service informed me that my harness was defective. This is why the car is totally dead except for one interior light. Has anyone ever encountered this issue? Thanks in advance!😊 Gary Bowler New York City

    2018 Model X - Display and Dashboard Totally Blank - Car Not Operable

    Two days ago I went to use my 2018 Model X - 34,000 miles - garaged - and every screen in the car was dead. There were interior lights and headlights but nothing else.

    Model X Only Charges to 190 at Bay Plaza - Bronx

    Since this station opened a few months ago, charging my care was very normal. But that changed this weekend - could it be related to the grid load this weekend in New York City?

    Model X Battery Charge Questions

    1. Is it okay to fully charge the battery the night before if I'm planning to drive locally all day the next day? 2. While charging, should running the A.C., heat, or other accessories be kept at a minimum? Much appreciated!
