Tesla forum brain trust-
I have a 2013 Model S with around 60,000 miles. For the second time in the past week, I have gone out to drive the car only to have multiple faults appear on the forward screen, effectively making the car undriveable. Below the speedometer I get multiple warnings (ABS anti-lock braking system disabled, parking brake requires service vehicle may be free rolling, steering assist unavailable, traction control disabled, anti-lock braking disabled) and a few others that I am likely forgetting. I get a Fault light in the upper right corner of the forward screen. The first time this happened a few days ago, after a few hours I went back out to the car and it drove normally again.
I can move the car forward and backward, but the steering wheel is really hard to turn. I didn't want to force it, so I don't try too hard. I did the dual thumb wheel reset, but no luck. The Tesla Service Centers out by me are horrible. They don't answer phones, and rarely return phone calls. I've made an appointment via the app.
In the mean time, is there anything I can do to try to get the car running so I can at least drive it to a service center?
Thanks for your time!
