Keeping my fingers crossed for you!June 2018 RWD-LR started throwing the PCS_a019 this past week.
Unfortunately I'm out of warranty on milage (59k now, 60k by the time I get to the service center)
About $1100 for parts and about $560 labor (USD) is the current estimate.
BUT! After reading Yanquetino's blog post, I've contacted support again as my build date falls into the June/July 2018 window.
Let's hope they revise the estimate and comp the replacement that was never done.
It sure seems like most of these PCS start to fail not long after crossing 50K miles. I would guess that's why Tesla has decided to claim that HV Battery Service Panel is not part of the "battery," and thus is only covered under the expired General Warranty. That way, owners have to pay for the expensive repair —rather than Tesla. Welp… sorry, Tesla, but even if the mediation decides against me, I will always maintain that such battery components should last as long as the battery. If you've been installing faulty PCS that break down after 50K miles, step up to the plate and cover them under the battery warranty! Do the right thing!
