OK, so I got a BMS_a035 error after the last software update and I made a reservation for a service appt. Today it's gone. Should I follow through on the service? The service means driving 50 miles, putting my dog in daycare, and an undetermined amount of time hanging around at the service center. But, if the BMS_a035 message is true "car may not restart" it's possible I could be stranded somewhere waiting for a tow.
 
I recently purchased a used 2018 Model 3 with 15,795 miles on 8/1, drove it home. Then next day drove it to work with no issues but on 8/3 on the way home from work is when I got that error message. Took a picture of that alert and created a service ticket. The following day, drove the car to work and the alert did not come back but did receive a message from Tesla service that I can bring the car in before my service date. Got a loaner Model S and last Friday they had to order these parts:
Parts Ordered
  1. ASY, DRIVE INV, 3DU, GLOBAL, 810A, SIC, REAR
    Part #: 1079924-05-J

Supposed to be picking my 3 up this coming Friday.

OK, here's an update on the situation: The day after my initial post the error message came back. I took my car to the service center yesterday and was given a loaner M3 Performance! Unfortunately, they've locked it into chill mode, so no fun. :( There is a DC inverter, cover, and wiring bundle on order. Repairs expected to be complete on 8/17/2021. Much the same as the above post.

I failed to mention before that my car is a full trim 2018 2 RWD with around 12,000 miles on it. I haven't been driving much since retirement and COVID.

I had this error. You need to do a hard reboot. Change the size of wheels inmenu to force it. Took it in for service and further diagnostic at larger SC. Rear drive inverter ordered No loaners available just Uber credits which are useless for me. Keep a spare car for times like this
