    Hello, my model 3 is at 48,500 miles and the autopilot is failing constantly. The Decatur Georgia service center is refusing to service it since January. They say, it is caused by my window shade or my USB hard drive or maybe my pregnant wife’s seatbelt extension or maybe the orange weight. What can I do to get it fixed before the warranty expires.

    not sure if serious.jpg

    If Serious, that "orange weight" might have something to do with falling out of autopilot.

    Well, autopilot fails even without the weight and it fails with the flashing red steering wheel warning.

    If you are really complaining that "I have been using a wheel weight to not have to put my hands on the steering wheel,. now the sensor in my steering wheel that detects wheel torque is malfunctioning", like it sounds like you are, well, /shrug.
