So over the last few days my charge port has been acting more and more strange.
First it wouldn't unlock the plug unless I double apped he key to unlock the car even though the car was already unlocked.
Then yesterday it took a few pushes of the charge port handle button to get the lock to go down so I could insert the plug. And at the same time the port is not lighting up any color at any time.
I know where the manual release is and how to work it, I'm concerned that if I have to use the manual release it won't let me insert the charger as it's intended as a removal of plug lever.
It is still charging for now, but tomorrow I have a 450 mile trip to get home and I'm hoping to not get stuck at a SC unable to charge since the nearest service center will be about 500 miles in any direction during my trip.
Is my charge port going out? If so is that a part tesla will sell me to replace, or will they be assholes and force me pay for them to replace it?
Or is there something I can test and/or replace to get it working right?
