A couple weeks ago while on our way out for dinner a warning message pops up: “Front passenger safety restraint system fault” when my wife clicks her seat belt in. An airbag symbol also appears at the top of the display. A reboot doesn’t clear it nor does the car sleeping over dinner.
So I called Tesla roadside assistance and they verify they can see the error message and said they added us the the service queue. A couple days later we get the following email:
“We have to order the part to resolve the issue with passenger restraint failure. It will take some time for the part to come in. At this time I will unscheduled the appointment. Someone will reach out to you to schedule a new appointment when the part comes in.”
Weird thing is we have never seen that warning again since we called Tesla. I wondered if they cleared the error remotely, or if it really was just a one time transient fault? Anyone else seen this?
This is the first (possible) issue we have had with our Model 3 in a year and almost 16,000 miles.
