It seriously appears that it’s possibly the single power strut issue driving this. I have a 2018 P3D+ with a power frunk and power trunk I installed myself. No issues. I was shocked and amazed (dumbfounded in all honesty) when OEM power trunks came out that Tesla cheaped out (obviously a cost saving measure) and only installed a power strut on one side. Before this started rearing it’s head I thought hmmmmm this may be an issue down the road, why would they only install one power strut? I though why? There’s only one answer. Cost.
Nevertheless it appears this is happening only on one side in all cases. Is the powered strut on this side or the right? I’m curious if any Ys have this issue as it’s my understanding they only have one powered strut as well? I do agree and think that it’s a “torque bending issue” as well. Maybe theyll get their act together and start manufacture these with a powered strut on both sides. I’d be even more shocked but not surprised if they’d make a CRAZY decision to cut costs further and stop installing a powered strut at all to save more money and go back to regular compression hydraulic lift. Following the Frunk hookgate. YMMV. Just opining.
